***Breaking News*** My book could be adapted into a movie! Details here!
I'm a writer and have just launched a blog to explore environmental, conservation, and rights issues - www.LionsledbySheep.com .
I also had my first book published recently - 'What if...?', a mainstream suspense thriller with an eco heart and a philosophical twist, which I've been told is similar to a James Patterson or James Rollins type of novel (see www.Steve-N-Lee.com ).
What if...?
Midnight. Christmas Eve. Manhattan.
A Ford T-bones a Mazda at an intersection. A woman, Mary, lies in a pool of blood in the gutter. Dead. Almost. But she doesn't die — a stranger saves her, then vanishes. And her world is torn inside out. Instead of being grateful for the gift of life, she demands answers — Who? Why? And how? Mary is educated, traveled, and open-minded, but sometimes the truth can be both beautiful and terrifying. What she discovers shakes her to the very core – an enigmatic stranger who seems to possess the power to heal - and her world will never be the same again...
With her gifted friend, Mary embarks upon a quest to fulfill her dream of making a difference to the world. In a desperate race against time, the duo set out to heal a world reeling in pain, little realizing that those in control - the government, corporate America, even the mafia - will stop at nothing to keep the world just as it is, poverty, disease, wars, and all.
On a roller coaster adventure filled with intrigue, action, and shocking revelations, Mary discovers that changing the world is not only difficult but downright deadly.

-
~ a religious mystery to rival ‘The Da Vinci Code’
~ the philosophical resonance of ‘The Green Mile’
~ the supernatural ‘saving the world’ element of TV’s ‘Heroes’
~ the struggle to triumph over impossible odds of Kurosawa’s ‘Seven Samurai’
-
~ the US Presidential election
~ environmental/conservation issues
~ poverty and human rights abuses
If your local bookstore doesn't stock 'What if...?', they can order it. Or you can buy it from ~
