Daniel is one of the most feared cage fighters in Mixed Martial Arts, closing in on greatness until an injury ruins his career. Forced back to his rural hometown with his career derailed, he slips into the criminal underworld, moonlighting as muscle for a mid-level gangster he has known since childhood. Battling a cycle of rural poverty, Daniel and his wife Sarah struggle to secure a better life for their daughter, but in this violent and unpredictable world of back-country criminals and county cops, Daniel sparks a conflict that can only be settled in blood. Written in spare, muscular prose, In the Cage penetrates the heart of what it means to endure life in the underclass, revealing the small joys found there.

In the featured story -- “Rebecca's Revenge” -- Rebecca, a beautiful secretary to an offbeat minister, turns up missing. Suspicions fall on the minister and his wife. The Sheriff can't locate the missing woman. Jack Nickels, a former mob enforcer hiding in the Witness Protection Program, lives next door to Penny. She is a sister to the minister's wife. Jack walks the Greenbrier River Trail every morning, just at the break of dawn. Rebecca materializes in ghostly form before him on Naked Man's Rock in the middle of the Greenbrier River. She is a manipulative ghost and draws Jack into her scheme for revenge. Can a ghost be mistaken? Will she finally reveal who killed her? There are 14 short stories in this book.

If you are a B & B traveler, you will love these stories that fit the B & B experience. Read one before you go to bed. The next day, you will have another short story to look forward to reading. These stories are perfect for reading when you are by yourself in an old house. Be sure to lock all the doors, though.

The Wrong Side of Eden-- I started with a well known story: Jack and The Beanstalk. But in this version we begin with Jack's encounter with the Peddler--and a few others; and after that encounter, Jack does not return home with a handful of magic beans--but is beaten, robbed, stripped naked and left for dead by the side of the road--by a vicious, chanting, singing and dancing (Greek) Chorus. He is awakened by a young girl "Jenny" who is innocently picking apples from trees that line the road--which we soon find out is the road to through the underworld...that will eventually lead to the Garden of Eden.... You can see it's not a 'typical play'--it operates on its own terms, complete with its own internal sense of logic, plot and character; although, I believe that in performance the audience will be able to follow the 'action' and the argument easily--because many elements are already so familiar to them.

An unforgettable look at an obscure part of the deep south just before the dawning of the Civil Rights movement and the turbulent 1960s would forever change it forever. A unique blend of humor, pathos, and bitter reality throws a harsh and revealing light on this this strange time and the people who were a part of it. Examine a place where the past is never past, and history hangs over the hot dirt roads and swamps like a morning mist. Examine a now forgotten world where men could die over a load of wet cotton, a cock fight, a fence line, a missing hog, or a romantic promise not kept. A place where the past lies like a rattlesnake under a bush waiting to strike. A world where little boys had hookworms and old black men sold Bolita. A world where a dream book could tell the future and a root doctor could cure an illness or fix a romance gone bad. It is a strange and mysterious world, full of fear and superstitions, strange people and strange customs. It is a world where black magic and old time religion go hand in hand. A world of tobacco fields and outhouses, pulpwood and moonshine stills, juke joints and whore houses. In the fall of 1959, a small group of frightened young high school boys gather in the late afternoon twilight to become a part of their local chapter of the Future Farmers of America. However, this was to be much more than a simple initiation. This was to become more than just one more school function. This night would change all their lives as they have to decide what price was too much to pay for being one of The Ag Boys.
