shared a note and highlight from
He was chronically ill-suited for the responsibilities that come with lawful behavior.
If you’ve ever visited a prison, you’ve seen more than a few people that you know will never be rehabilitated, never turn over a new leaf, never be anything but criminals until the day they die. Sad but true. Martin Scorcese and Quentin Tarantino wouldn’t have careers if there weren’t men and women like that.

What’s next on your reading list?
My latest novel, SQUEEZE ME, comes out on Aug. 25th. It’s set mostly in Palm Beach, a rich island town where there are no strip clubs. There are, however, mega-mansions where all sorts of mischief goes on. I also threw in a giant python and a President who can barely fit into his tanning bed. Again, there are historical precedents.

“Of course there’s no hope,” García said, “but don’t let it get you down.”
Al Garcia is one of my favorite and most reliable detective characters, inspired by a Miami homicide cop I knew back in the wild days of the cocaine wars.
If you didn’t have a sense of humor back then, the streets could swallow your soul.

Hi Edward! Thanks for your question. My experience with Africa stems from a close friend who is a hot-air balloon pilot who lived in Tanzania and now lives in Kenya. And certainly, a ton of research goes into my books--interviews, articles, travel, e
