Jane is a Mensa genius, stunning and wealthy. A tall, quirky, queer girl. She’s a weapons and martial arts expert, and though vicious and troubled, she’s got a heart of gold. Jettisoning a life of East Coast privilege to become a PI/Bounty hunter in dangerous N. Las Vegas, she’s dedicated her life to fighting for the LGBTQ world. She takes down violent men and woman – in this case two violent butch females, sadists along the eco system of the private sex and fetish scene in Vegas. When an ex drug-addicted show girl’s young daughter goes missing, Jane must move into the depraved bowels of the Vegas underground, into BDSM and Goth sex clubs as she hunts her prey. There sex, lots of it, and violence too, among the private, dangerous and honest club scene. There’s death and, hopefully, laughter and a few tears along the way. If you’re looking for the usual watered down erotica, the Prince saves the princess kind of pabulum, well this novel is not for you – unless you might be interested in something NEW and unusual. I have been told my work is like a bath of acid, stripping reality to the bone. The first novel in a series of novels.

Irving Berlin marked the end of WWI with a show that opened on Broadway just before Armistice Day, 1918, and ran for all of 32 performances. Yip, Yip, Yaphank was notable for its company, made up entirely of servicemen. The idea of an all-service show resurfaced in the wake of the U.S. entry into WWII, and the cast of This Is the Army was rehearsing and preparing to open at New York's Broadway Theatre. Their story is recalled here by Alan Anderson, whose first assignment after induction into the service was to be production stage manager and first sergeant of the This Is the Army detachment. From this vantage point Anderson enjoyed a unique perspective on the show, on all the elements that went into it, and on all the personalities that in one way or another brought the elements to life.
