    Snowfed Waters

    The characters are delightful, especially the way the Nepalese see things so, so differently . . .

    Sally Radnor, Cambridge Writers

    Madagascar Misadventure

    This absorbing adventure is accurately set among roads less travelled. Of critters best avoided, strange cultures, contraband, imminent death and endless caves. Whatever your age, the book is an easy listen. Put Madagascar on your bucket list.
