The Golden Orange A Novel

When forty-year-old cop Winnie Farlowe lost his shield, he lost the only protection he had, leaving him to fight a bad back, the bottle, and his conscience. He is drawn into a special fight when he meets Tess Binder, a stunningly beautiful, sexually spirited three-time divorcee from Newport Beach, the capital of California's Golden Orange, a world of immense wealth. Nearly a year prior, Tess Binder's father washed up on the beach with a bullet in his ear, a death the coroner called suicide. To Tess, it suggests the fear of her own fate. Winnie Farlowe is a man willing to follow wherever she leads, straight into the 'juicy pulp' of the Golden Orange, a world where money is everything but nothing adds up, and where death and chicanery flourish amidst ranches, mansions, and yachting parties. The novel combines harrowing suspense, scathing humor, and a moving portrait of a man on the brink of self-destruction.
