(You'll have to read it to find out!) Richard's next novel, Panicles, explores the price of fame and fortune through the eyes of two families, one wealthy and powerful, the other blue collar, from a chance meeting at a Florida poolside, to the highest levels of politics and power. This sweeping saga of love, war, money, and power leaves each family weighing their duty to their family versus service to their country. It all leads to a fateful choice-a sacrifice-which could change the course of history. Richard lives in New York City and New Orleans with his love and inspiration, Lisa, his wife of thirty years (and counting), near their beloved grown children. |
