A strikingly beautiful edition of my "lost" novel, long out of print. After finishing THE TOUCH in 1985, the next story in line returned to WW2, but this time to the Pacific Theater. I'd been reading a few books that recounted how nicely the Pearl Harbor attack played into Roosevelt's desire to go to war against the Axis, hinting that Pearl had been set up. The result was a revisionist historical family saga horror war novel (try saying that fast 3 times) that took me almost two years to write and research. A mix of cultural fanaticism and wrenchingly dark supernatural horror.
I'm very proud of BLACK WIND. Looking at it in terms of character development and sweeping plot, it's probably my most accomplished work. I'm delighted it will be back in print. It's got a high price tag, but it's high-quality bookcraft.
