A Short Biography
FOREIGN RIGHTS & AGENTS
When prominent Mississippi civil rights attorney asks renowned neurosurgeon Bradford Stone to help her save the life of a white racist condemned to death for the cold case murder of a black man, he has no idea that he is about to be dragged through a deadly past he thought he had escaped once and for all.
Set mostly in Mississippi – primarily the Delta region where the real-life gothic exceeds the most outlandish Flannery O'Connor story – Perfect Killer tells the story of a future which can never break free of the past.
The mystery is centered in the Mississippi Delta in a top-secret military project begun decades ago in a facility once housing German POWs. The program, Project Enduring Valor, is designed to create the ultimate human killing machine.
For over seventy years, has sought the Holy Grail of combat medicine: a chemical compound that would turn ordinary soldiers into weapons of mass destruction, the Perfect Killers.
Now, after decades of covert trial and error which have resulted in troubling side effects such as the My Lai massacre, Enduring Valor is ready to be implemented on a massive scale--despite a few troubling side-effects.
Before he knows it, Stone himself in the sights of the Project's director, a retired general and war hero turned presidential candidate. To get back his life, and expose the truth, Stone must struggle with the South's racist legacy, the demons of his past and penetrate the very heart of the lethal conspiracy.

The 2008 election turns, as most elections so, on the decisions of indepenent voters. Independents don't much care for party lables. Independents do not subscribe to party lines and are most likely to favor positions selected, one from column A, one from column B and so forth.
Whoever really wants to win might want to browse this book review I wrote for Barron's in 2004.
FROM THE REVIEW: "That makes the centrist candidate's path rocky, as John McCain learned in 2000. McCain, according to Avlon, infuriated the GOP establishment "with his refusal to play ball with big business and the religious right, while capturing the imagination of independents and reform Democrats to such an extent that polls showed that he would have beaten Al Gore decisively."
"But neither the parties nor their vested special interests can afford a reshaping of American politics. Thus, it was no surprise that, after McCain won the New Hampshire primary by nearly 20 points, the Bush campaign "began blanketing the airwaves with ads attacking McCain, spending an estimated $50 million." The religious right stepped in with a sleazy campaign of anonymous phone calls alleging that McCain "had collaborated with the North Vietnamese, fathered illegitimate children, [that] his wife was a drug addict." This showed how organized parties can keep the centrist majority from choosing a candidate they prefer.
"Avlon also says that George W. Bush co-opted many Clinton-Gore centrist positions, then moved way to the right to reward the religious right for helping to remove McCain from the competition.
"In all, Independent Nation offers lessons that, judging by this year's campaign rhetoric, are being ignored by Democrats and Republicans alike."
We can only hope and pray that last sentence doesn't come through again.
