FOUNDING A NATION: DIARY OF THE TEXAS REVOLUTION-Pairing up with settler Hank MacElrae in 1836, the inimitable Bostonian Hawk Banks sets off in quest of adventure on the Plains of Texas. A distinctly incompatible pair, the two manage to craft an incongruous friendship, and enduring all manner of perilous events, they somehow succeed in becoming the unlikeliest of heroes acclaimed for Founding a Nation.

THE STARRY MESSAGE: GALILEO'S LOST PROPHECY - The discovery of Galileo's lost message by the Italian Contessa Antonietta Floridiana three and a half centuries after his passing initiates her search for the solution to The Starry Message, and enlisting the aid of American Professor Paul Woodbridge, she sets off on a journey across Italy in search of the solution to the cryptic verse. Transporting the reader across space and time, the storyline moves seamlessly between seventeenth century and modern-day Italy in a series of events that increasingly intertwine the lives of Galileo, the Professor, and the Contessa. As each discovery by the modern-day pair builds on the previous one, they are increasingly drawn into a complex web of intrigue, danger, and intricate scientific revelations. Ultimately, deciphering the writing of a long-dead genius becomes the challenge of a lifetime for the Contessa and the Professor.

resurrection - DECODING DANTE'S LOST CANTO - Paul Woodbridge and Antonietta Floridiana, the world-famous decoders of Galileo’s Prophecy, embark on a mission to decode the long-lost Canto by Dante.  Alternating between modern-day and Fourteenth Century Italy and France, the story vaults back and forth in time and space as the quest for the solution bounds forward.  As the search progresses, a series of revelations occur that, although enlightening to the searchers, simultaneously subject them to increasing perils caused by the horrific revelations unfolding within the Canto.  The secrets imbedded within the Canto grow from increasingly unexpected to exceedingly bizarre, finally revealing one of the greatest mysteries in human history.   

The Sutherland Saga - A SERIES of six Interconnected novels-Set against the backdrop of world-changing events of the twentieth century, the saga traces the travails of the Earls of Winston and their loved ones.  Having been awarded the Earldom of Winston by King James the First, the ancestral home of the Sutherland family is located at Wharton Manor in Gloucestershire, England. 

Each novel unfolds in a turbulent period of the twentieth century, and as the participants become acquainted lifelong relationships are formed, thereby leading inexorably back to the Earldom.  Increasingly complex mysteries develop in each of the novels, eventually resulting in murder, mayhem, and world-changing events.  In the end, the Earldom of Winston will be at the root of some of the most heinous events of the century.
