I was never sure what I wanted to do with this story.

I loved discovering it, enjoyed the research and the detail that went into creating the book, but never felt it was “mine”… in that totally weird artist way of owning something…

But someone saw another side of the book, and brought it to life as an international electronic book.  Thank you, Open Books.

Simple Intent, based on a true story, is a fast paced legal thriller that reads likes the love child of Grisham and Lehane.

When two opportunistic interns uncover details about a 1970’s cold case, their simple intent to free an innocent man is thwarted by crooked cops, a slick prosecutor turned defense attorney and a bunch of Philadelphia bad guys.
