Operation Undertow: A Police Commander goes Rogue to Stem the Tide of Terrorism in the “City by the Bay.”
Gerald Gregory Doane
A Police Thriller that takes place in the city by the bay in the early 70's.
“The sky was dark, but the city’s sodium overhead lighting and the advertising neon illuminated the streets as if it were twilight. Distracted as I opened the driver’s side door of my unmarked cruiser, I saw a flash of light, felt something stinging my face, then heard a loud bang. I dropped to the ground, laid there momentarily, then low crawled to the back of my cruiser for more cover. I waited, maybe fifteen seconds while I composed myself, made a hasty look-see, then duckwalked back to the driver’s side door and reached inside for the radio mike, ‘Central-300, shots fired at me, Vallejo and Stockton.’

Marion (Mid) Lacy, who traces her ancestry back to the early New World Settlement of Nantucket, worries that she is overshadowed by more brilliant siblings and friends.

Route 66 Déjà Vu
Michael Lund
Route 66 Déjà Vu explores the confirmations and revisions of individual and collective history for a generation that grew up in the '50s and '60s in a small town on The Mother Road. The occasions are a 50th high school class reunion and the 100th birthday of one classmate's mother, the matriarch of her family and a representative of the Greatest Generation. The stories of the class's male and female Vietnam veterans are integrated into the longer narrative and present a distinctive perspective on the American Dream.

Route 66 Looking Glass
Michael Lund
In Route 66 Looking-glass Mid (Lacy) Lindbloom and husband Oscar—with grown children (mostly) on their own—assess their life’s successes and plans for the future. The mid-1960’s is a time of turmoil for the nation, though, and they worry that the American definition of success has been constricted to material prosperity. The dream of “the Mother Road” appears illusory when reflected against the realities of injustice in the nation and of war abroad. Book 3 Open Road Series

The Teardrop Shotgun
Jeff Mara
I’m not a writer, so to speak. Surely not a Hemmingway or a Steinbeck, but I’m compelled to write and tell my story. I believe it’s a story worth telling, to fellow dreams, outdoor enthusiasts, who love adventure. (hunting and fishing)
