The Japanese Connection
Early in 1942 the Japanese navy sank the American cruiser Stuart. Our story involves four boatswain mates who were close friends onboard ship and during their subsequent capture and incarceration. They suffer atrocities under the command of a sadistic Sgt. Oki Tashino. When it becomes apparent that the end of the war is imminent and that he will have to face the War Crimes Committee, Tashino switches identities with a dead Japanese soldier. As our story moves forward to the present, the crew of the Stuart is having their annual reunion when word is received that Oki Tashino is alive and touring the U.S. on business. Even if his true identity is revealed, Tashino will remain a free man under the provisions of a 1952 peace treaty that released all War Crimes prisoners, terminating all legal, moral, and humanitarian obligations to individuals who suffered direct consequences of incarceration by Japan during World War II. One week after the reunion, Tashino is found murdered in his hotel room on Long Island. The subsequent police investigation points to a crewmember of the Stuart. But who? Detective Frank Arena is assigned to the case and ultimately discovers the murderer.
Illegal Woman
To read Illegal Woman is to straddle a vintage motorcycle behind a gorgeous young Gypsy woman and ride like hell through France in freewheeling 1965. It is a coming of age nostalgic trip that captures the excitement of empty-pocket, youthful travel. Circumstances force our suddenly broke writer, Kelly, to hitchhike from the French Riviera to Paris, where he hopes publishers' checks await him at the American Express office. Six hundred miles and only a thumb, a pair of Keds and $30 to get him there. On the way Kelly catches the eye of a beautiful Gypsy, Kalina, who teaches him to travel by his wits alone. To be Gypsy. This is a spicy romp told with energy, passion and humor. The reader will enjoy a riveting ride through Gypsy camps, Gypsy culture, French history and American folk music. Hop on the bike with Kalina and Kelly and venture into the life of the Rom at your own risk. You won't want the ride to end.
