The Relentless River represents the one-way flow of our lives, constantly impacted by the inflow and mingling of other waters, altering our journey. That theme underlies the series.

Having completed eight full-sized manuscripts over a five-year period, I am now focusing on getting the series published. Minor characters took on a life of their own; I loved them, ached with them, pushed them on, and told their stories, too. In the process of writing the series, I discovered the glory of northern Montana and the friendship and encouragement of Blackfeet Native American friends. Several Blackfeet are editing and helping me develop realism and authenticity of their modern-day points of view and cultural backgrounds. It has been one of the great privileges of my life to be accepted into their world, and to experience one of the most glorious places on the planet earth.

The Relentless River Series consists of eight interconnected novels. While battling evil influences and life and death situations, characters cope with events in their pasts that have molded them, while wrestling with their own morality.

Headwaters, the first book in this series, was released in December 2015.

Becomes A Horseman, just released April 12th, 2016, is the second book in this series of eight contemporary novels.

The Earth’s Backbone, the third book of the series, will be published in late fall, 2016.
