Followed from town to town by their lack of conviction and misunderstanding of GOD, it is with some grief that they reach their destination. Mara has decided to follow Lucas into the unknown. And unknown to Lucas, she has also fallen in love with him. But she has a strange dysfunctional way of showing it. With her new zeal for finding her faith and falling in love, their road trip is blurred to say the least. What Lucas didn't have in mind when he left his hometown was losing his best friend and finding his worst nightmare. A higher power is his only deliverance from this misadventure. As the duo makes their way from Brownsville, Texas to Seattle, Washington they are deposited in Las Vegas. And where better a place to find the most sin and salvation?

Dangers, Toils and Snares charts the life and times of Jaroslav (Jiri/Jerry) Zellek, 1895-1963. Born in provincial Austria, synesthete, gifted musician and linguist, Jiri’s experiences take him to Germany, London, the Isle of Wight and finally rural Hampshire. These various locations offer him alternative paths in life, often with alternative partners. Jiri’s sexuality is ambivalent; not a problem in 1920s Berlin, but more so in post war England. Although never an intelligence agent, Jiri is involved as both fall-guy and hitman with a group who are based on the infamous Cambridge Spies. As the story progresses, gradually uncovered family secrets will cast doubt on his closest relationships. Jiri is an unpredictable, solipsistic and not entirely likeable character, but his unusual internal monologues about the situations he finds himself in and his enduring ability to come out on top of continually unpromising situations keep the reader on his side. The novel is an entertaining read with witty dialogue and surreal situations. The tone is decidedly quirky and will keep you guessing until the very end.
