One early beta reader said “Fractured Dreams reads like Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child venture out on a conspiratorial road trip in an RV with John Sandford, Lee Child and Dean Koontz!
Kate and Geo Janis hide in plain sight to avoid a bullet to the brain.
Geo learns to ask the dead for advice, some of which is quite good—when forthcoming, that is. But his most daunting challenge? Culling out which conspiracies are real, and which are conjured by the traumatic brain injury he manages with some success.
As a military veteran, a former business executive who retired early, a best-selling author, and now a notorious podcaster, Geo fights the same battle every minute of every day. But nights are far worse. No more so than in the blast furnace of the Arizona desert.
Eight years ago, pulling a trigger to take a human life in the tropics altered Geo’s mind. At the same time, a near-lethal blow to the base of his skull changed his body.
Janis awakens swinging at Kate with clenched fists and hates himself for it. And he pretends arthritis causes his back pain, his limp, and the headaches.
Now he and his wife fear discovery by the Patriot Brotherhood—a death sentence. But there is more at stake than their safety: National Security.
Regardless, friends in high places need his help—again—to defeat the Brotherhood and to defend democracy. He will serve once more, the risks be damned.

What Inspired You to Write Your Book?
“Fractured Dreams” is the second book in my Dream Runners series.
The first, “Dangerous Dreams,” is now available in ebook and paperback editions worldwide at all online retailers.
They say the most fascinating characters and their stories originate from real-world experience, and those in “Fractured Dreams” are no exception.
By living for a few weeks to a few months in each of over forty of the United States in the last four years, Kay and I have met and made friends with so many amazing people or heard preposterous stories told by others.
Those stories just begged to become the genesis of “Fractured Dreams,” plus story lines evolved from the first book: gritty interpersonal relationships, large-scale intrigue, political conspirators attempting a palace coup within the White House, assassins foiled by underdogs, conflict with undertones of sexual and political tension, deep-rooted friendships between unlikely characters, and flawed players seeking redemption. What's not to be inspired?
In this book, people and their stories from within the deep Arizona desert to the guttered streets of Washington DC blend in an unexpected continuum of mysterious thrills and psychological twists.
That is the soul of “Fractured Dreams.”
