Geneticist Lucien Roux’s cutting-edge experiment to clone Neanderthals blurs lines between ambition and ethics after the clones are stolen and forced to play a brutal and violent game dubbed Neanderball. Haunted by the realization that his hubris overpowered his morality, Lucien knows he must fix what he’s done.
Racing against time as a military faction and a sinister adversary close in, he has one chance to expose the real reason his research was taken. With his ex-Marine girlfriend, he sets out on a dangerous journey to save the Neanderthals before it’s too late. It’s an all or nothing fight for redemption, leading to a showdown for his survival, and freedom for the Neanderthals.

What Inspired You to Write Your Book?
Funny thing, but I was in a graduate lecture in archaeology (for my master's in public archaeology) when my professor mentioned that Neanderthals had been built like linebackers. Boom! A story idea popped into my head and Neanderball was born.
How Did You Come up With Your Characters?
My Neanderthal characters came from using modern discoveries and a little genetic knowledge. My protagonist, Lucien, was developed from scientists and professors I've known, so I combined certain traits and created my paleogeneticist. Lucien's girlfriend, Marlowe, an ex-Marine and tough-as-nails woman with a softer side that's usually hidden, is a combination of things and people.
