“Casting Stones” continues the fascinating adventures of political consultant, Mark Young that began in “Panama’s Rusty Lock.” Set in Greece during the 1985 elections, the historical political thriller pits the United States against the Soviet Union in a battle over Greece’s future political and economic future.
The novel is set in the turbulent times of airline hijackings, terror bombing and assignations. The Soviet KGB, Greek secret police and terrorists all conspire against Mark Young as he tries to win a national election while simultaneously rescuing twelve invaluable ancient sculptures.
Mark is torn between the turmoil in Greece and a critical situation threatening his relationship with his girlfriend, Vicki, back in Washington, D.C. All of these diverse threads come together in an unexpected and powerful conclusion.
Casting Stones won first place in Georgia for historical Fiction for independent Writers and was a Finalist in the Manhattan Book Award
