My novel, "The Quick are the Dead," is now available at Amazon.com It is most unusual as the story backgound is the Russian Civil War, 1917-1920 and two events in the life of the protagonist are true. But, this is certainly not a History lesson: three murders occur in the early chapters and the fictionalized life of the daring Mikhail is one adventure after another. Try it, you'll like it. If you forget my name or the title, memorize this ISBN:
978-1-4327-6654-2. Rich, aka Richard S. Wahlberg

A correction..".Master of his Fate" (Publ.2004) tells about American twin boys separated in pre-WWII Berlin. Have totally different lives. My present novel," The Quick are The Dead "is a mystery/wartime adventure at the time of the Russian Revolution and Civil War.
