Alfred Nobel invented dynamite and was one of the richest people in the world. He is well known as the benefactor who endowed the Nobel Prizes. Money and fame could not buy success with his private passions. Fear Not The Fire tells of a complicated man whose love for an unattainable woman and failed quest for acclaim as a playwright left him bitter and lonely. A combination of historical fact and conjecture, Nobel's life story is also the story of man's deadly pursuit of war machines and the money that was made in the chase.

Inside and outside the courtroom, a young attorney plays by his own rules and is successful despite leaving a trail of broken personal and professional relationships. Full measures of sex, drugs, arrogance and bad luck ultimately bring him to the brink of despair. Can love and sobriety redeem a life?

With Stage 4 liver disease, John Fleer was told by five physicians that he had six months to live. Fleer closed his law firm, gave away or sold most of his material possessions, and planned with his wife to make the transitions that would be required of them both. He received hospice care for almost a year...but inexplicably did not die. This is a short memoir of a year spent learning how to die and, ultimately, learning how the prospect of death can teach a person how he wants to live.

Reincarnation has not worked out so well for the narrator of this tale. He/she has been demoted to a current existence as a tapeworm who finds a home in the brain of Jimmy, a ten-year-old boy. The worm guides Jimmy through the next 60 years of education and the founding of a new religion.

Sheridan is a detective story based on real events in the summer of 1975 when the author worked at a psychiatric hospital in a quiet Wyoming town. A murder took place in a next-door apartment and was unsolved for months. Police detective Sam Kraft recalls his investigation which led him to the hospital's dark history of LSD experimentation. Kraft ultimately commits his own acts of deception in "the interests of justice."
