The past few years I have read so many books, many for research for my novels. At present I am working on Aeron Rowan Teague: Art Crime Detective. A homicide cop who happens to be a bona fide artist whose works sell at high end galleries. He is transferred to head up the AC Unit and once in awhile goes undercover for Interpol.
Some forum members might be interested in the synopsis for Barbarians, a Mongol love and war story, when women were warriors and commanders, too.

I love to smoke a decent cigar when I read or write.
