I had the good fortune of meeting the author last week and knew instantly that I needed to start reading his work. The Toppled Cross grabbed me by the windpipe from the first page and left me gasping for air, wincing in perceived pain or chuckling at the irony, with every turn of the page! Sometimes, all three! Its gripping pace, roller-coaster plot twists and amazingly relatable characters will leave you wanting more and more! Literally couldn't put it down. Still trying to determine if I chuckled more than I gasped--even so, I thoroughly enjoyed this ride!
