About the Book

Nomad VI is a suspenseful spy novel about the most advanced defensive weapons system ever developed by man, using the latest advance in infrared and laser beam technology. Yet the State Department decides to reveal it's existance to a special session of the U.N. Security Council. Why?

Dr. Alan Dempsy, originator of the system and project director of Houston's Pioneer Institute of Technology, finds himself faced with more than scientific problems when mysterious tampering with the entry hatch of the Nomad sitting on the launch pad at Cape Canaveral coincides with an unexplained eagerness by the State Department to lift the secrecy veiling the project, and in no less a manner than having Dempsy himself disclose it to the UN. Thus begins an adventurous trip to New York, involving a plot filled with continually surprising twists and turns.

Here is a well-written, well-constructed work with vividly portrayed and fully formed characters. A complex story of loyalty and betrayal, romance and seduction. The brutality of Vietnam and a broken heart. Written in a strong and lively style, it goes deep into, and offers the reader an inside  look at  the operatons of the KGB, the FBI, the Pentagon, the Special Operations of the military and Cape Canaveral. Graphic and gripping in it's description of high-level espionage, it is both powerful and compelling. Set in the Cold War Era, the thrilling ending will keep the readers on the edge of their seat and give their heart a little faster beat.

Chuck has seen most of the world over during his twenty-eight year career as a U.S. Coast Guardsman. After his military career he operated a family owned small business in New Jersey.

He was born and lived in the foothills of the Great Smokey Mountains in east Tennessee for the first fourteen years of his life.The last four of those years living with his grandparents in the small farming community of Tusculum College. Choosing to live with them rather than being in a large eastern city where the family moved to when he was only ten.

He became interested in the Coast Guard in his early teens and decided even at that young age it would be his career. He prepared himself for a Naval Engineering career in the service long before enlisting by attending Diesel Engineering school.

One of his favorite pastimes has always been writing. Now retired and living in Florida he will continue putting his energy to this effort.

Chuck has never claimed to be even an average author, but when you read his books you will find one of the best of America's storytellers with a style that explodes on the pages he writes.
