There is always the certainty of change; nothing stays the same: people, circumstances and neighborhoods, to name a few, all change. The Table Turners is the story about the Turners, a family in New Orleans as they stand on the threshold of their dreams being fulfilled: moving away from the lower income class neighborhood along the Mississippi River and a tiny shotgun house into a middle income class neighborhood and a bigger new house far from the river. The family is also on the brink of seeing their family business come to life, but then a tragedy occurs. The story begins in 1975 and unfolds over a period of twenty-one years. The young Turner children, Brandon and Freddie, are poignantly changed as they grow from children, to adolescents into adulthood. Their parents, John and Delta, are also profoundly changed as they see their hard work come to a bountiful fruition. As the business grows, so does the financial status of the Turner family. The Table Turners is a literary family tale filled with hopes, dreams fulfilled, tragedy and loss all set against the backdrop of New Orleans. Initially the characters are poised and set in one way, only to be repositioned and moved in another. After all, change is inevitable. "..The Table Turners will entertain readers and even make them cheer." ForeWord Clarion Review

On her way to a new job in America, Maria Puente accidentally discovers a human trafficking ring. Fearing exposure, the American company that manages the operation - with the help of their Mexican partners - kidnaps Maria. Maria's disappearance triggers a desperate search, by her family and local law enforcement, to find her before the kidnappers can permanently dispose of her. As the investigation unfolds, long-time Hogg County high sheriff Will Moser confronts Albert Waters, a powerful businessman who Will suspects knows about Maria's disappearance - but Albert and his Mexican cartel partners prove to be brick walls. At the urging of his wife, Lana, Will calls on Elijah Kahn, a man he got to know while serving in Vietnam who now runs one of the largest international security firms in the world. The idea of working with men who are rightly known as mercenaries troubles Will, but he knows he'll never find Maria without Elijah's help - and when Lana reminds Will of the debt they owe to Tomas Delgado, Maria's uncle, his hesitation evaporates. Organized in an hour-by-hour structure, The Bus to Beulah is a taut thriller that culminates in a massive, heatrt-pounding chase to save Maria - before she disappears forever.
