SERIES TO PONDER

  • Fallen Angel

    When a priest in the Vatican’s Office of Exorcisms in New York noticed the upheaval that was occurring in American cities after perpetrators of particularly heinous and insidious crimes had been acquitted after trial, something struck him about the dates of those crimes. His research revealed that the crimes all preceded satanic exorcisms he had either witnessed or performed and struck at the very fabric of society.

    After additional research revealed eerily similar instances had occurred around the world, being an exorcist with a thorough knowledge of the Devil and his works, the priest concluded that Satan was directly responsible for the crimes and the chaos.

    In America, the Devil had been winning because crimes like those studied by the priest, resulting in criminal trials, were being lost by the prosecution. The reasons for the losses varied from Jurisdiction to jurisdiction. But a closer examination revealed that the Devil had used his wiles to effect both the investigations and trials thus insuring the outcome he desired would be achieved.

    Once Brooklyn became ground zero for the Evil One, a local prosecutor with the skill, personality, strength and tenacity to take on Satan, to withstand his counter attacks and beat him, was recruited. Michael Gioca, Chief of the Rackets Division in the Brooklyn District Attorney’s Office, was handpicked by a secret government agency to be that warrior.

    With crimes that had actually taken place in Brooklyn and investigated and prosecuted by the author, as the backdrop, Fallen Angel, A True Crime Fantasy, is the story of Gioca’s war with Satan.

  • Fallen Angel 2

    There's a war for the very soul of Brooklyn ... and the stakes are higher than ever!

    When perpetrators of particularly heinous and insidious crimes were acquitted after trial in an alarmingly large number across America, it caught the attention of a priest in the Vatican's Office of Exorcisms in New York, who noticed that all preceded satanic exorcisms. His shuddering conclusion - Satan must be directly responsible for the crimes and their aftermath.

    In the United States, the Devil was winning, and causing anarchy, chaos, and the destruction of life.  

    The Fallen Angel series begins when Brooklyn becomes ground zero for the Evil One, and prosecutor Michael Gioca, Chief of the Brooklyn District Attorney's Rackets Division, is handpicked by a secret government agency to take on and defeat the Devil. In Book 1, Gioca gets the best of his evil adversary time and again, so Satan must up his game if he wants to succeed in his mission, the destruction of Brooklyn.

    For decades family has been the cornerstone of the rich, vibrant, life in Brooklyn, the Borough of Churches. Without it, life there would crumble. The Evil One has recognized this and has taken aim at that essential institution.

    If you love crime, fantasy, and delving into the unknown, Fallen Angel-A True Crime Fantasy, Book 2, tells the story of the war for the soul of Brooklyn.

    Will Satan succeed? Or will Michael Gioca once again prevail.
