Shipwrecks and other Stories

In Shipwrecks and Other Stories we read of men and women struggling in love and longing, adultery and addiction, between staying in a price and moving on, all the while trying to rediscover who they are in a world in flux. Readers search the desert for a beloved mule with the grandson of a hard rock miner. We go for a swim with an obese woman who finds courage by breaking into a closed public pool. We are abandoned with an exiled Guatemalan Special Forces Major and his family on the US-Mexico border when be discovers smugglers trafficking kidnapped girls and faces the decision to attempt to rescue the girls, or ignore them and not risk his own family's safety. We stand in a rainy night with a commercial fisherman.
