Thriller Author
My most recent novel, When Heroes Flew, began life as a short story over fifteen years ago. That was well before I knew anything about crafting a novel. But after writing five thrillers, a couple of which did quite well on Amazon’s Kindle bestseller list, I went back to the story, took it apart, and rebuilt it into a novel.
The novel is set against a WWII bombing raid that has absolutely captivated me for more than two decades after I watched a documentary about it on PBS television. The raid occurred on August 1, 1943, when 178 American B-24s, called Liberators, took off from Benghazi, Libya, to bomb the oil refineries of Ploesti, Romania, refineries that supplied the German war machine.
