Growing old is risky. Combine it with poverty and you have a conundrum. In Defiance Is Different, the fourth in the Helen and Frank series, Frank Palermo had lost his money by 2023. He had sent it to aid the defense of Ukraine, along with prodigious sums of money he had defrauded from Russian oligarchs. Helen Palermo was living on a placid lake in Florida, estranged from Frank, whom she feared might get her killed. Barney Browning and Vinnie Palermo continued to make money. They needed to invest it somewhere, so they began buying regional banks in the Midwest. Their success attracted unwanted attention. With Barney's help, Frank returned to his gastronomic roots and opened a small restaurant in Defiance, Missouri. Helen arrived from Florida and helped Frank's restaurant succeed. The Covid-19 pandemic was over, yet people had much to fear--multiple wars, urban crime, a porous southern border, inflation, ubiquitous fentanyl, inept and scary politicians, overreaching bureaucrats, a divided electorate, and a presidential election year. If 2023 was calamitous, imagine what 2024 might bring.

Russians and Rubles, the third installment of the Helen and Frank series by Thomas Morgan, takes our two stalwarts and their little band of conspirators through the tumultuous year of 2022.Amidst the disorder of Covid-19, crime, inflation, fentanyl overdoses, and a porous southern border, a new plague arrived in 2022: Vladimir Putin had his military invade Ukraine on February 28.Helen's aggressive nature and Frank's money laundering skills attract attention from the wrong people. They tangle with an assorted group of miscreants, including American mobsters, Wagner Group operatives, shady bankers, and ambitious federal investigators.Though Helen and Frank's rural location in St. Albans, Missouri, insulates them from urban chaos, danger finds them. Their involvement with criminal elements here and abroad compounded their peril. With wealth and influence, anyone can eventually overstep. It happens to Helen and Frank. They had to learn their lesson the hard way.

Helen and Frank: Getting Old and Finding Love with Food, Wine, Theater, Music, Crime and COVID, by Thomas Morgan. In a St. Louis memory care center, amidst the COVID-19 pandemic and a world reeling under lockdown, two unlikely people - Helen and Frank - run afoul of each other. And somehow, despite their faults and bad intentions, almost inexplicably ... they fall in love. "The viral infection we know as COVID-19 has been the defining event of 2020, perhaps the defining event of our lifetimes." - Thomas Morgan Hyers, M.D.Frank Palermo in this story lived in a memory support complex in 2020. From March to September of 2020, Frank basically was confined to his apartment. His food was brought to him, and his trash was hauled away. He was lucky in that he could still drive his car, but where could he go? Restaurants, theaters, concerts and other entertainment venues were unavailable to him. He was prohibited from group meals and other forms of socialization with residents in his complex. Frank had the internet as his primary form of communication and education. It was the way he experienced the world for almost six months. His confinement made Frank a stronger person, but to many older people the enforced isolation became unbearable. Helen, a penniless widow, moved into Frank's complex in September and changed his life. The story of Helen and Frank aims to put a human face on the extraordinary year of 2020.
