Forgiveness: An unexpected gift
Excerpt: I find myself hiding inside my bedroom, behind an unfamiliar massive wooden dresser, kneeling on the floor and peeking out as terror crawls inside of me. My heart is beating fast, my palms are sweating and my throat is dry and hurting. I swallow hard, but careful not to make any noise. I look around without moving, searching for an answer, trying to make sense out of this situation. I noticed everything is in place with the exception of this dresser. A dresser that looks like a piece of furniture my grandma would own. On the other hand, it doesn't really matter where it came from. For now, it's serving a great purpose and shielding me from danger. I am confused. I have no memory of how I got here. I know I am afraid, but not sure of what though. It is daylight, but looks brighter ...

How would you behave if you knew Karma was watching? When a homeless man rescues a young boy from a savage beating he is rewarded with a life changing discovery. Unfortunately it doesn't necessarily change for the better. Now he is up against forces that are conspiring to make him be something he's not, a decent human being. This is something of a 'pilot episode' which I have decided to make available for free. It is a Novella, longer than a short story but not a full length novel. It was written with the busy reader in mind, to be enjoyed in one sitting on a lazy Sunday afternoon, or whenever else you can find a couple of hours to yourself. It is a self contained story but if people enjoy it I will write more stories in this universe....

It is 2002. America is still reeling from the tragedy of September 11, and the specter of impending war looms larger with each passing day.

One by one, each of the characters at the center of the novel find that they have become inextricably entangled in the mystery of this troubled young man's life and death. As the disparate threads of their stories pull tight, their investigations lead them together towards the beating heart of a microcosmic world where lust and violence rule the lives of the living and the dead alike, all of them struggling after the...

He felt fractional, part man part air. His flesh-and-bone part was squashed to four feet three inches by a fate and gravity too cruel to forgive, and the remaining two feet—he saw himself, his real self, as six foot three, not an inch shorter—see-through dream. Just his luck to have overshot the medical definition of dwarf by a solitary inch , yet he was one, in his own as well as others’ eyes. Had he been larger, he would have been ugly. As it was, he was cute. But no less ill-intended. The feeling that fate had dealt him a spiteful hand never strayed far. His problem was who to blame. “You have no idea,” he explained to a colleague once in an inebriated moment of weakness, “how it feels to always be looked down upon. How it feels to always look up at.” Even sitting down, ba...
