DOWNLOAD EBOOKTwo architects, two men turning forty who have been involved professionally and personally for twenty years, are beginning to see their practice and their marriage falter. One Fall day, a peculiar young man drifts into their storefront office claiming he has car trouble, asking to use the phone. The men get to talking; the young stranger is curious but enchanting, and one of the architects ends up playing tennis with him that afternoon, ultimately inviting him home for dinner. The ensuing evening involves a lot of wine and banter and then increasingly dark conversation, and when the stranger has had too much to drink, the two men insist he sleep in their guest room. During the night, the stranger commits an act of violence which shatters the architects’ ordered lives, each man in his own way over the days and months that follow coping with blossoming doubt and corrosive secrets.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe beyond-great Hollywood star returns in seven pyrotechnic tales that become--somehow--a family saga spread over seventeen years. Wayfaring at Waverly in Silver Lake encompasses friends, relations, and some passersby--as James McCourt cocks a cast eye on the seven deadly sins. Some samples . . . In a story evoking pride, fountainhead of the other deadly sins, Hollywood star Kaye Wayfaring, semiretired now atop the Silver Lake Hills, like Marion Davis at San Simeon, is at home during the 1984 Olympics, contemplating the translucent Norma Jean ("Nobody ever went at lines the way she did"), while over at the studio, her colleagues review the highlights of her career, culminating in her scandalous, headline-grabbing Oscar snub. Lust is represented by Kaye, now back in business on location in Ireland, starring as the wanton Irish pirate queen, Granuaile. Kaye is sheathed in the part, waiting for the light, in County Donegal, balancing visions of sacred and profane love, during the first (and always lustful) day of principal photography. Gluttony is personified by Kaye Wayfaring's son, Tristan, in the throes of adolescent meltdown, telling his beloved uncle the demented tale of his cross-country bus trip, forced landing, and rescue by south-of-L.A. beach bums, as he floats in and out of consciousness. And sin itself, as in "sinfully delicious," is exemplified by James McCourt's new book, "Wayfaring at Waverly in Silver Lake, from beginning to end.

When he hires effeminate art teacher Bradley Baldwin on a moment's notice, it sets off a chain of events that puts Rob and his cousin Carlo in dangerous waters.

Baldwin is tried and convicted of the murders and given a life sentence. Fast paced and full of riveting suspense, James Schneider's debut tells the tale of a captivating murder mystery set in what many refer to as the Nation's 'Summer Capitol.'

As Rob and Laura rebuild their friendship, suddenly, Baldwin contacts Rob from his prison deathbed with a confession. Now the case everyone thought was settled long ago has Rob once again thrust into a storm of accusations, treachery, and murder." --Back cover.
