The Art of War: a Novel
If all stories are love stories, this one is no exception -- yet it is far, far more than that. Set before and during World War II, The Art of War is a heart-wrenching mosaic of characters and stories pebbled with the shards of a shared monster: war. It follows the lives of twin siblings Gabriel and Kallypso amongst the villagers of Mythaki, an idyllic Greek island soon shattered by the brutality of war. The twins evolve from mischievous children into adults grappling with a war that robs them of their innocence. As an artist, Kallypso masters the painting of saints and angels in the eastern tradition of iconography, but her art is radically distorted by a monstrous Nazi officer who molests ...
Emerging Butterfly
Survive the darkness of the cocoon and you will emerge into the light of day. . . . Raised in San Diego in the 1980s, Constance was born to be a Californian dreamer.

The Cardiology of Broken Things
According to African legend, the God of Creation fashioned a ladder to Heaven to escape humanity, destroying the steps behind him. This was no coincidence. . . . When cardiologist Ian Kentwood volunteered to monitor a vaccination program in the heart of western Africa, he never expected to stumble upon the riddle of a child massacre. Now the clock is ticking, its hands filling with blood as humanity dwindles in a world filled with humans. Insurgently delving into the mystery, Ian ignites the rage of conglomerate puppeteers who would go to desperate measures to preserve their deadly secrets. Their influence extends even to the Lebanese-American consultant who has become his greatest weakness: Lena Nasri, hiding her own parade of skeletons. But monsters cease to live in closets once we welcome them into our beds and rib cages. And once within, they don't like to let go.
