I am a graduate of Purdue University, a retired U.S Army officer and was for ten years Director of Security for the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. I also worked for AIG, American International Group, in their Security Department for a number of years and along the way I attended law school at night, graduated from Massachusetts School of Law, passed the bar, and practiced law in Massachusetts for sixteen years. I have several published novels, Nantucket Summer, a coming-of-age story that takes place in 1946, The Many Indiscretions of Arty Boyle, which chronicles the machinations of an art thief, The Court Martial of Charlie Newell, the story of a World War I Negro draftee and member of a religion that believed war is wrong and held that Saturday is the Sabbath when no work is allowed. The story recounts what happens to him at the hands of the rampant prejudiced found in the army of that period, The Unknown Subject, a cold War spy novel. The Girl Called Princess Charlotte, the story of a painting stolen by the Nazis and a mystery thriller, When the Rules Don't Apply, set in Boston. The Lottery Game is set in an independent living community called Brook Haven in central Massachusetts and involves the Mass Lottery. My latest book, The China Paradox, is political thriller and deals with China and North Korea's plot to create a new world order, a one nation World, consisting of all the world's nations, modeled after China's governance and economic system.
