Come What May
Alan has completed a new novel. He is scouring the landscape for an agent and/or publisher.
“Come What May” is a dystopian thriller set in the near future. The story takes place in a Central American nation in the grip of an uprising. A widowed and naive American schoolteacher accepts a teaching job in the country of San Cristobal and moves his family from an increasingly repressive and paranoid U.S. into something even darker.
Ultimate Excursions…
…is an arrested development coming-of-age story.
Seeking a respite from the stresses of Peace Corps life in rural Ecuador, Tim Lake embarks on a vacation to Peru with a troubled fellow volunteer. But what Tim believes is an innocent journey devolves into chaos. When a Peace Corps official insists on covering up the ensuing mess and its deadly consequences, Tim must confront his own cowardice, complicity, and culpability. After wallowing for a decade, circumstances force him into a reckoning, and a voyage toward redemption.
As Tim stumbles upon hidden truths about the ill-fated trip, Ultimate Excursions takes a shocking, 90-degree turn that will keep readers transfixed. At once gripping, darkly funny, and ultimately redemptive, Ultimate Excursions is part picaresque, part thriller, and part meditation on what makes us tick as human beings.
