It's a trilogy series, mystery/thriller/suspense. I just recently signed with my publisher for the release of "Novus Diem" (New Day) set for next year. Novus Diem is a Stuxnet-like virus launched by a USCYBERCOM researcher in an attempt to stop an escalating nuclear attack. Her attempt is successful but it results in unintended consequences that turn her own world upside down.

I usually hop on my bike for a good long ride. Something about strenuous physical activity and getting out into the countryside hits my internal reset button. I don't necessarily dwell on the block, but it is somehow worked out subconsciously.

The initial idea was sparked by an article I read in the paper about brothers being charged with the beating of the priest that had molested them in their youth. I had considered the idea of murder must have come into their minds. The premise expanded into the cover up of multiple crimes and how victims had dealt with their experiences. The overarching theme is about the presence of corruptible power within institutions that historically have been free from accountability. The two main characters (Molly & Damien) have their own history of drama that is interwoven throughout, but together they become a force to be reckoned with.
