Blog postI’m excited to announce a great new cover for the ebook and print versions of my novel The Losing Role.
The first release in my Kaspar Brothers series, The Losing Role tells the story of a struggling German actor, Max Kaspar, who’s forced to impersonate an enemy American officer during WW2’s bloody Battle of the Bulge. It’s also based on real-life events. More about the book here.
The new cover was designed by the talented Erin Seaward-Hiatt, who also did the covers for m -
Blog postThese are strange and scary times. Things suck right now. We need diversions, and stories help us cope. But we can only binge-watch so much Netflix.
Luckily, we have books. Stories in book form are the perfect escape. They take you to another world while keeping you away from all the bad news.
Unfortunately, publishers, authors and especially local independent bookstores are facing unimaginable challenges right now. So if you’re thinking about buying a -
Blog postAs we reach the end of the decade, I realized that all of my novels were (finally) published in these last ten years, most in the last five. I'll toast to that! It’s been a long road getting there.
Over those years I've written posts and articles about the real-life events behind

Blog postSeventy-five years ago, on December 16, the Battle of the Bulge began. Many don’t know about a doomed spy mission that Hitler had devised for his surprise Ardennes Offensive. Under the code name Greif, German soldiers who could speak English were trained and equipped to impersonate American troops behind the enemy lines, where they would wreak havoc and secure depots and bridges in advance of the main assault.

Blog postI have a new short video out about how fact meets fiction in The Preserve. In it, I get to introduce some of those wild and lesser-known historical incidents that I cover in my readings:

Blog postDuring World War II, the Imperial Japanese conquered and subjugated Asia without mercy. They also plundered it. It’s said that the Japanese military even enlisted yakuza gangsters to help move vast stocks of gold and riches to occupied islands such as the Philippines.
After the bloody and chaotic Pacific War, US General Douglas MacArthur reigned as Supreme Commander of all Asia from his exalted HQ in Tokyo. “Never before in the history of the United States had such enormous and a -

Blog postThere’s a new book trailer out for the new novel. This was a labor of love created by yours truly in true DIY-style. I was able to include a famous public domain image, “That 2,000 Yard Stare,” painted by Tom Lea for the US Army in 1944. But I shot most of the images while doing book research on the Big Island of Hawaii. Check it out:

Blog postI have some issues with legendary Gen. Douglas MacArthur, whose dominance is always looming in my novel The Preserve. I share why in this new CrimeReads piece. I go there in my readings, too. I guess I have an issue with unchecked authority! But I also get to mention that champion of the Average Joe with the best name ever: Smedley Darlington Butler, former Marine General and author of War is a Racket (1935).

Blog postSometimes, you just need a second chance.
This week I’m re-launching my crime novella that was published back in 2016 by Endeavour in London. Not enough readers know about the story, unfortunately, especially with so many books out there and so much competition for our entertainment these days. Now I’ve been able to get the rights back to the book so I can (hopefully) reach more readers by re-releasing it on my own—with a great new cover as well.

Blog postI’m excited to announce a new novel: The Preserve. This one’s been a long time coming, after repeated false starts.
