DREAM STATE - NOW AVAILABLE IN PAPERBACK!
“Dream State is a story of survival, blending Lord of the Flies with Yellowjackets, and adding a dash of Fantasy Island just for fun. Loyalties will be tested, horrors seen, and not everyone will make it to the end. A powerful, gripping story that will make you think twice about that next island retreat.”
--Richard Thomas, author of Spontaneous Human Combustion
