Columbus and Broadway
New law grad Denny Martel is drawn into the life of North Beach and San Francisco in 1966. Angela, the beautiful brilliant psychotherapist turned stripper, and May, Vogue cover model and heroin addict provide romance and danger. Denny represents Claudia, the woman he left in L.A., in a real estate deal in Chinatown while a gang war rages. Denny navigates the treacherous landscape and the intertwined lives of three beautiful, complicated, and dangerous women involving him in intrigue and homicide while, in the background, a conservative San Francisco rapidly evolves into an international center of all things.

In the summer of 1968, a serial killer is loose in Los Angeles. The press calls him the Night Slayer, and he robs "mom-and-pop" businesses in South Central LA, leaving no witnesses. As the S...
In Harm's Way
Denny Martel, a young and promising public defender assigned to Los Angeles Central Division Trials, is making a name as an aggressive and unrelenting advocate for his clients. These clients, who cannot afford their own counsel, are assigned to him at random from a mix of unfortunates charged with felonies. The PD office is in the beginning stages of a huge expansion, thanks to the U.S. Supreme Court decision in Gideon v. Wainwright, and the U.S. is fully involved in the Vietnam War. This confluence of circumstances produces an influx of socially evolved and involved recent graduates of top law schools into the public law offices. These young Turks, not least among them Denny, take the times...

Soviet Architectural Avant-Gardes
Soviet Architectural Avant-Gardes challenges conventional readings of the history of Soviet art and architecture, in which utopian modernism was practically prohibited by 1932 under Stalin's totalitarianism. Radically redefining the historiography of the period, it reveals how the relationship between the Party and practicing architects was much more complex than previously believed, and shows, in contrast to the conventional narratives, how the architectural avant-garde was able to persist at a time when it was widely considered to have been driven underground. In doing so, this book provides an essential new perspective on how to analyze, evaluate, and “reimagine” the global history of...
