Product Description

My movie script, The Parole, is a superbly suspenseful international thriller that has a disconcerting and uncanny ring of geopolitical truth and eerie prophecy -- when your read The Parole, you are reading the future. Snatching the headlines off the front pages of the daily newspapers, I weave a gripping tale with the fate of the world in the balance... in a fast-moving narrative that is precise and terrifyingly real. This book is a thinking man's'' thriller with a twist!

The story begins five years from now, with anti-hero Mike O'Conner, who has become disenfranchised after an overzealous government agent cripples him during his arrest for hacking into the FBI's Most Wanted Site. Two years later, paroled, down on his luck and drowning in debt, he is faced with an ethical dilemma, should he tell the FBI what he has illegally learned about the terrorist attacks in Chicago, and risk violating his parole.

The FBI response to his honesty is to place some of the blame on Mike, hoping to calm a nervous American public. Through a quirk of circumstances, Mike escapes, soon both the FBI and the world's most deadly terrorist, pursue him. Will he be able to stop Sokol, a ruthless and technically skilled terrorist from destroying the global balance of power? The fate of the world rests in this very unlikely hero's hands. The Parole, is not a cookie cutter thriller, because it shows the reader what they see everyday in the news, and then gives it a unique curve with an eye towards a world teetering on the brink of destruction

4.0 out of 5 stars Bluecat Screenplay Review, May 28, 2009
You have a great way with words, and your descriptions and observations throughout the story are funny, clear, and engaging. I love the "I always say buy good shoes, and a good bed. Because if you aren't in one, you're in the other".


The story ranging from the opening scene to the deflating of the balloon in Central Park is exciting, bordering addictive. Terrorism remains a timely topic with great market potential, as many people still live in fear of new attacks. Your descriptions of the Chicago bombings are bound to frighten a large number of habitants!


Mike is a great character. He is well developed with lots of quirks and personality. He is smart but kinda trashy, brave in some matters but chicken in others, and overall believable and the kind of protagonist many people will relate to. His brother Fast Eddie is awesome too. Your introduction of him as "got the shallow end of the gene pool; he is bald, short, and easily excited" was right on!


I love the way you use the print t-shirts for Eddie and Mike. "I don't hate people, I just feel better when they aren't around" was my favorite. Where can I find one? Great Story!
