I'm the author of "Amish Snow" and am also working on my second novel that's set to be out late Spring.
Amish Snow is the engaging tale of young Ezra Neuenschwander’s rocky journey from victim of an abusive Amish home life to successful businessman. Set in the heart of perilous Philadelphia in the 1960s, this universal story of one boy’s coming of age will keep you guessing as he must continue to reinvent himself. Filled with the unexpected, with intrigue, adventure and romance, Ezra’s courageous story will win you over as he feels his way in the “English” world.
I’m not sure why I chose a story about an Amish kid crossing over into the English world for my first novel. Probably partly because I’m familiar with the Amish, but also because I’ve always been intrigued with stories that challenge assumptions and break with stereotypes, and boy, does Rumspringa challenge our assumptions!
The story line in my second novel, Yield Spread, is also a topic I’m familiar with; the world of banking and mortgage lending. Playing with other peoples’ money is an intoxicating ride, and we’ve seen its inevitable consequences in the last few years. This isn’t the first time we have been brought to our knees due to the reckless behavior of the banking community, nor will it be the last, but in our freewheeling financial world, we tend to ignore history. Yield Spread is the story of a man you’ll love to hate, JP Mallot, and the forces that enabled and even condone his behavior and its bitter consequences.
