A tender, off-beat love story set in the turbulent 1960's; a time of of dramatic social upheaval, the Vietnam War and the assassination of President Kennedy. Selma Katz, a serious, intelligent, sophisticated woman, has a beautiful, sensual body but a less than attractive face. She's thirty, and contrary to her dreams, is beginning to accept her future as a single woman. Selma's earthy, Jewish father is desperate to find a husband for his daughter and offers a substantial dowry to someone who'll take Selma off his hands. Connor Sullivan is a handsome, intelligent, lazy, self-indulgent, womanizing twenty-three year old who's just flunked out of college. Through a series of seemingly random events, Selma and Connor are thrown together, and although they have little in common, they slowly, almost begrudgingly, develop a mutually supportive friendship that moves in directions neither of them can predict or control.

A young nanny battles an ancient demon for the souls of the twin babies in her care.

Appalled with US policy in the Middle-East,a billionaire defense contractor and a retired major general decide to mount their own Executive Action in the region. They build a small dirty bomb, and brutally brainwash a simple, garbage-truck driver, whose wife was mistakenly killed by terrorists, into exploding the device in the Grand Mosque in Mecca during the Hajj, with the intention of sparking a war between Shia and Sunni nations. As the time ticks away, can anybody stop them... Hugely pertinent and thoughtful, Executive Action asks about the world we live in and questions who really is pulling the strings on the global stage.
