I'm pleased to share that my novel, ONLY THE STRONG, has been acquired by Agate Bolden, a Chicago-based publisher. ONLY THE STRONG tells the intertwined stories of a retired "leg-breaker," his kingpin boss, a sainted community pediatrician, and her headstrong young protege, set against a '70s backdrop of rapid social and political change. I'll post more news when I have an official pub date.
