    About this ebook

    Billy Russell's career as a narcotic officer abruptly ends when he cold-bloodedly executes the man who committed a heinous crime against him. Sentenced to 20 years hard labor in total isolation from the outside world, he's suddenly, and without explanation, released on parole 5 years early. Returning to society, he learns that an isolated nuclear attack spread primal fear of a nuclear holocaust allowing Autocratic billionaires to seize control of the world. But their faulty economic policies have caused rampant poverty, crime, disease, and drug addiction.

    As a condition of his parole, Billy is assigned to government drug enforcement unit in Boston, but soon makes a gruesome discovery of the unit's true mission. Approached by a secret underground dissident group planning to overthrow the authoritarian world government, Billy joins them to end the demonic reign of tyranny only to discover the shocking details of what is really taking place.

    Midnight Black is a fast-paced, action packed thriller/suspense novel in the tradition of author Lee Child.

      I’ve Served Time in Prison. Sheltering in Place is Terrifying.

      Apr 7, 2020

      A few months after I got out of prison, a car pulled up outside my apartment. I panicked. It was white, with a dark stripe down the side: a patrol car. Surely, I thought, this was it. The police were here to arrest me. They’d call my parole officer,

      It’s soothing when the newly dead are way older than I am. This guy was 95. His picture—middle-aged, archaic glasses—freezes him somewhere around 1970. But even when they are my age and live in my town and share so many of my habits and interests tha
