WOW (an acronym derived from Wizards of Words, a burgeoning
writer's conference, of which I'm a proud member. Check us out at www.wizardsofwords.org) and other authors.

This stuff really happened. The drug smuggler known as 'The Boxer'
actually beat the US Government at every turn. The mysterious man
sent to bring him in actually existed too, but not quite, as you will meet
him. When government agents were timid, Boxer was brazen. When
obstacles were thrown down in his path, he hurdled them. And when
he returned home with paper sacks full of money, he was welcomed by
his wife, children, and banker. Throwing Bones is an artful blend of
fact and fiction that will leave you amazed, curious, and a little jealous.
The events, places, and people are real, just thinly disguised for legal
purposes. You won't want to put it down, but when you do, you'll
have a smile on your face, and maybe a question or two.
