    Joe Kelly was a gay rights activist in Bay City, Michigan. Having come of age in an oppressive and conservative Southern culture he devoted his early life to fighting for the rights of gay men, lesbians, bisexuals, and transgender people. However, all the while he saw progress, conservatives consolidated and expanded their power base into the highest reaches of government. Joe watched his successes evaporate and realized his mistake, "Like many other gay rights activists I had deluded myself into thinking we had accomplished something of significance by an occasional court battle win or preventing a piece of legislation from passing Congress. While fleeing for my life I had to realize that I had failed to render my enemy hors de combat. I had known my enemy well, and I knew his agenda for my annihilation." Running by Night is full of action, adventure, intrigue, romance, and drama. Yet even in the darkest of circumstances it never loses its ability to engage with the reader at all levels. Readers should be prepared for a roller-coaster ride of emotions.

    Part 2 of this trilogy opens at the beginning of 1941. Spanish diplomat Vizconde Rodrigo Mendoza has just been recalled from his post in Brazil to assume a new position as chief of staff at the Spanish Embassy in Berlin. In part 1 of this trilogy Rodrigo's world was turned upside down when German Abwehr agents, using their knowledge of his sexual orientation, blackmailed him into conducting espionage on behalf of the Third Reich. Rodrigo broke free from their manipulation and used the skills they taught him against the Nazi regime. In Part 2, Lost at Sea, Rodrigo returns to Berlin where he has a golden opportunity to inflict the most damage on the German war machine and help turn the war to favor the Allied cause. Rodrigo finds himself in constant danger. To survive he must juggle romance, sexual relationships, cunning wit, and physical agility. This part of the trilogy ends at the beginning of 1943, just when German invincibility is beginning to crumble.

  • - Part 1: At Waters' Edge

    The Vizconde Rodrigo Mendoza was a low level diplomat in early 1939 representing the government of Francisco Franco at the Spanish Embassy in Berlin before being transferred to Washington. Rodrigo was also gay. He ran afoul of the Abwehr, Nazi Germany's intelligence agency, and found himself caught up in the seamy world of espionage and international intrigue on the eve of World War II. Particularly Dangerous Work is his story, told in three parts. The story is full of gritty action, inopportune romance, harrowing escapes, and thrilling adventure. Readers will find themselves immersed in the world of the early war years, dancing to Tommy Dorsey hits, sailing aboard the SS Bremen, and witnessing the invasion of France. Parts 2 & 3 will take readers through the remainder of the war and beyond, where Rodrigo's adventures grow evermore dangerous. This book, and its subsequent parts, should appeal to most adult audiences.
