"These "novelettes" linger in the mind, each an exploration into human nature and human relationships: loss, tragedy, struggle, youth, old age, the gift of love, the denial of love. Make you think, they do. And more important, they make you feel. Don''t miss it." - Neal Stannard, Author, Radio News Anchor.

"Frank''s vast experience in law enforcement and classical music elicit the full spectrum of emotions from readers; Joy, sorrow, resignation, regret, anger, desire. The stories are packed with believable, three-dimensional characters, not plastic heroes. A great collection for those who love short stories. Through them, Frank has provided that perfect combination of entertainment and something to ponder." - Lou Belcher, Editor of Florida Book News
