The Chrysanthemum Garden is a novel about two people, so real, so authentic, so totally realized that as we watch them fall in love we feel we are finally being permitted to enter the magic kingdom of human heart. Morna Franklin and Denison McArdle are not adolescent, romantic stick figures, but mature humans who bear the scars, defeats, resignation and triumphs, that come from having lived full lives. But neither is, nor could ever be, prepared for the moment of unexpected grace that wrenches them from the lives they assumed they would always live. She is in her fifties, a mother and grandmother. He is seventy, a great American poet, a widower waiting benignly for his life to wind down. The novel is the story of their life together, a novel so transcendently beautiful that reading it is like an act of liberation and deliverance, from the cares of this life and from the fears of aging and death.

Albert Manners is magnetised by the power, wealth and wisdom can bring. A descendant of poor immigrants, he works hard to build an empire that spans twenty countries. Power corrupts him with infidelity, arrogance, greed, and recklessness. Angelique, his wife, conquers loneliness and frustration with illicit affairs and an illegitimate child. Their only son, Mikhail, inherits paranoia and suspicion and is intent on erasing his father’s fortitude and resilience with his own brand of impotent management. The conflict that follows disintegrates the family in different directions and brings the company Chrysanthemum Coronet Inc., the company his father founded into disrepute. Who emerges from an unexpected quarter to take over the Company? Read the gripping story of wasted fortunes and follow Carol Markham as she discovers how the mantle of maturity finally comes to rest on her shoulders. Every page promises to keep you on this journey, right down to the last page. The Chrysanthemum Trilogy: Transition is the first part of a race from construction to destruction to reconstruction. From tragedy comes triumph. Or does it?

The Chrysanthemum Contingency As the U.S. expends its major international efforts on its war against worldwide terrorism, the United States' apparent interest regarding East Asia is at an historic low ebb. Into this power vacuum come China and Japan, each quietly and relentlessly pursuing their own individual goals aimed at controlling the region. Several American foreign correspondents stationed in Tokyo become entangled in a critical revelation of secret negotiations between the two Asian powers that would, if successful, result in the exit of U.S. influence in the area and a dangerous future for all concerned, as nuclear arms and military capabilities expand for national defense purposes. A compelling story exposing current activities which may soon threaten world peace. Another reality based novel by the author of The Fugi Agenda, The Lotus And The Rose, USSA 2020, and Decay of Ivy.
