(Can anyone tell me please what this means?)
At any rate, after a career in legal scholarship (hundreds of book on the law of Evidence) and academic education (I am a former law school dean), I have, in my "Second Act" followed my heart–inspired by surviving cancer, I have started writing in creative formats-my life having been spent with cases in which "truth is stranger than fiction!"
I have also designed a cultural hub such that that proceeds from my novels will benefit others (see www. weissenbergerartisticalliance .com - "A Creative Cultural Consortium for Charitable and Developing Artist Support.")
Specifically, my goal is to provide funding for my charities as well as educational resources (stipends for weekend retreats, workshop training, etc.) for new artists who intend to use their talents to advance social justice (A "Citizen Artist," in a term coined by Yo-Yo Ma.)

The sales page description of my first novel (for which I would be so grateful for reviews) is Made to Measure Man:
Former law school dean, Glen Weissenberger, nationally renowned expert in the plot twists of legal courtroom evidence, brings a “too real to be true,” heart-pounding, romantic mystery to life in his cleverly penned, critically acclaimed, 2nd edition of his first novel, Made to Measure Man!
Garth Matthews, dean of Chicago’s newest law school, doesn’t see it coming.
And if brilliant Matthews can’t see it coming, nobody can.
So it’s not looking good.
Naturally, Matthews is thrilled to receive a multimillion-dollar award for his educational leadership. But before he knows it, he becomes entangled with the shrewd, gin-guzzling, hysterically funny matriarch of the bestowing European charity—and the intrigue doesn’t end there. Clues are mounting that the foundation is really a cover for international art theft, and that Matthews is being set up as its prime suspect.
Then–as if this weren’t complicated enough–Matthews finds himself utterly captivated by Julia, the matriarch's beautiful, enigmatic granddaughter.
Together, Matthews and Julia share quiet, tucked-away restaurants in New York City, fine wines, and warm, wide-ranging intellectual conversation. For the first time since his wife’s death, Matthews feels solace and a growing, tender love in his relationship with Julia.
That is, when he isn’t trying to unravel the plot spinning around the foundation, with his own neck on the line.
And where does Julia fit in? Could she be his true love–indeed, his soul mate? Or is she part of the web luring him in with her wiles–possibly even the family’s mastermind?
Race through Matthews' ten life-changing days that swirl with false identities, threats of criminal embezzlement, and a building–possibly dangerous–passion, days that will change his life forever!
PLUS! A BONUS SNEAK PEEK of Companions by Contract: A Weissenberger Romantic Suspense Novel, Book Two, an even spicier and more thrilling tale, available now!

Made to Measure Man was released first in 2015 (garnering 4.4 stars on Amazon); I then decided to completely retool the book, inside and out, and its recent 2nd, enlarged edition features new artwork, an entire revision of text (substantive edit/proof/copyedit), and a complete interior redesign.
Made to Measure Man just came out of KDP Select, and is now available in wide distribution; I can send either the Kindle .mobi version or the EPUB version, whichever you’d prefer.
I would be so appreciate those who would review what I have been told is a “fast, fun read.”
Thank you very much, in advance.
