Jade’s prisoner laughed. “My name is John Smith,” he said. “I am visiting Miami Beach from Indianapolis, where I work in a factory that manufactures tools for the automotive industry. I am married to a woman named Frances, and I have three children. I go to church every Sunday, and listen to Chicago White Sox games on the radio.”

Jade took a step closer, his Smith and Wesson extended. “Are you sure?” he asked coolly. “That’s your story? That’s what you’re going to stick with?”

“My name is John Smith,” he repeated, with a smile that could not be tolerated.

“All right,” Oscar Jade readily agreed, and put a bullet through the top of his right foot.

Oscar Jade, a private detective in Miami Beach in 1942, is investigating the suicide of a friend…and he doesn’t believe it’s a suicide. As he investigates, the stakes soon escalate to life and death – for a great many people – and it soon becomes clear that the war is about to be fought right here – at home.


“Prepare to be taken on a journey to 1942 Miami Beach where the drinks are straight…and the anti-hero – the club-footed, hard-drinking, harder punching Oscar Jade – is the last man you’d want on your tail. Storm Maker is a nostalgic blast where monochrome images of Bogart and Bergman are conjured in the mind and the soundtrack crackles under the scratchy needle on an uneven gramophone.” - A P Bateman, Amazon #1 Best-Selling Author

Lessons from the Porchis Ed Poole's thoughtful memoir of life's lessons, which he shares with endearing charm and good-natured heart. The book is a thoughtful journey and an engaging reminiscence.Lessons from the Porchwill allow the reader to consider questions such as: Have you wondered how you arrived at your current stop along your journey? Have you ever asked the question, "What am I supposed to be learning from this experience?" How can I leave this world a bit better than it was when I found it? Although written about his own experience battling depression, the book is meant for anyone embarking on a journey to know themselves and cultivate new friendships. We all have places from which we learn life's lessons. For some it may be sitting beside a meandering stream. For this author, the place to which he returned to understand his journey was the porch that surrounded his house as he grew up. Metaphorically, Poole's porch represents how he either has or has not accepted changes in his life. The dilemma about how and when to leave his porch goes back to his early boyhood when his mom would always say, "Eddie, don't get too close to the edge of the porch, because you might fall off."
