    About this ebook

    A war hero stumbles into a web of money-laundering, lies, and deadly secrets. A very generous offer to buy his luxury home includes an expiration date on his life. The only person who can save him is the person hired to kill him.

    For the warrior, medically-induced flashbacks to the bloodiest battle in the history of the Marine Corps ̶̶ the retreat of NATO forces from the Inchon Reservoir during the Korean Conflict ̶̶ becomes a life-threatening allegory in the book.

    Wrinkled Heartbeats is the author’s first novel. Midwest Book Review calls it: “a deftly crafted and extraordinary novel, very highly recommended.” It was a Finalist in the prestigious 2016 Next Generation Indie Book Awards. It received the award as one of the best First Novels of the year. It won the Silver Medal in the crowded Action Fiction category at the Readers' Favorites Awards ceremony in Miami. It has received Awesome Indies Approval.
