I write character driven stories that are placed in far away places that delve into the human condition, the things we do to survive, and to find meaning in our lives. The Nepal stories are based on my time there over the last ten years, and they strive to give the reader a glimpse of this fragile, yet beautiful and harsh land the people live in. You'll find a multitude of different characters in them, not only from Nepal, but from other places in the world that tell how and why they came there, and how the land and people affected their lives and changed them for ever.

The first of these Nepali books is, "THE LION OF KHUM JUNG", which is set in the Himalayas where I did charity work for The Sir Edmund Hillary Foundation.

The first of these Nepali books is, "THE LION OF KHUM JUNG", which is set in the Himalayas where I did charity work for The Sir Edmund Hillary Foundation. The story tells not only about the scaling of these mountains, but also of why these men and women do it, and the human costs that are waged upon them. It's a story of confronting demons as well coming through hardship and past decisions that torment the characters. A finalist in the Syracuse Downtown Writer's Book of the Year Awards in 2014, it is available in paperback, kindle and audiobook format.

The second book in this series, "On My Way to You, is a story about two damaged people from different worlds coming together on the Annapurna Circuit that circumnavigates the great Annapurna Massifs. It occurs during what is known as the 'Annapurna Circuit Disaster in 2014' that stranded over two hundred hikers during a freak blizzard. The hero, John, and heroine, Michelle, find themselves thrown together, and in their struggle to survive, they discover the damage they carry inside them also has the capacity to heal another.

The newest release is, 'The Himalayan' (NEXT CHAPTER), which goes back to Frank and Sarah's story in, "The Lion of Khum Jung" (NEXT CHAPTER) and in it, I dig down into their past and reveal the hidden world of the Tibetan culture. It's available on Amazon in Kindle, paperback, and soon to be in audiobook format through (NEXT CHAPTER)

Currently, I'm working on the last book of this series that dives into the world of Kathmandu during the 2015 Earthquakes that rocked the country. In this book, I delve into the tragic and ugly world of human trafficking that has been a lingering problem in this tiny country for decades, if not for centuries. I'm a little past the half way point in the first draft at the moment, and hope to have it available by the middle of 2021. Check out my website at: rjbaglierre.com, for updates and other books I have available on Amazon through NEXT CHAPTER PUBLISHING. And if you like pictures of where I've been you can go to the photography section on the site as well. I also offer a lot of other goodies there, too!
