Leland
A life interrupted. A future reimagined.
Leland is inspired by the true story of Leland Blakeslee, a 19-year-old soldier from Western New York who was killed at Unsan during the Korean War on November 2, 1950. His body was never recovered.
The novel begins with the life he actually lived—then imagines the extraordinary life that might have been had he survived and come home.
It is a story of family, love, innovation, sacrifice, and legacy, built around one unanswered question:
What if he had lived?

The Kaliningrad Gambit
A dangerous future. A high-stakes gamble.
The Kaliningrad Gambit imagines a NATO-Russia crisis in which deterrence finally fails and Kaliningrad becomes the center of a direct confrontation.
NATO seizes the Russian exclave and holds it hostage, offering its return only if Russia agrees to three conditions:
- Withdraw from occupied Ukrainian territory
- Release all military and civilian prisoners
- Verifiably remove nuclear-capable systems from Kaliningrad
The result is a fast-moving military and political thriller built around one question:
What happens when NATO decides the only way to end the war is to change the rules?

The Grid
Who stays on. Who goes dark. And who decides.
The Grid follows one record-breaking heat wave as a regional power grid serving five states is pushed to the edge of collapse. When demand runs past every forecast, grid operator Mara Vance has to order rolling blackouts. Factories, neighborhoods and whole towns go dark. Axiom Campus 7, an artificial-intelligence data center drawing nearly 1,500 megawatts, stays on.
When the public learns the campus could have cut its power all along, outrage follows. A second, larger heat wave is forecast just seven days away. Mara now has to decide who carries the burden when there isn’t enough power for everyone. One of the plants in the next blackout zone belongs to her brother.
What starts as a technical emergency becomes a fight over fairness, corporate power, public trust, family loyalty and who really has the authority to keep the lights on.
When the power runs out, who decides who goes dark?
