A story of a mild ridiculed under sized boy who from unexpected circumstances within his life grew up to over come his difficulties to become a powerful Knight where he became highly respected amongst his fellow Knights after their continuous battles against warring tribesmen and strange creatures.
Noah Milano is a Los Angeles security specialist with more than a few “family” problems. Because, in his case, his family is “the family”. He’s the estranged son of a mobster, which creates a big deal of tension and more than a few problems. Fiercely independent, and determined to sever all ties with his past, Noah has to adjust from being a spoiled mobster son to being an independent operator with little money. When he’s hired to bodyguard a beautiful and rich teenage girl he’s drawn into a web of family secrets, homicide and the dangers of falling in love. It’s not easy to be a White Knight in a world filled with betrayal and mob violence but Noah Milano is going to try anyway…even if he has to die doing it…
A boy forced to become a man before his time. From his strict and violent upbringing he became one of the most feared Knights of his time in and around the lands where men were fighting for supremacy by conquering all of those that were willing to oppose them.
What happens when you find yourself at the epicenter of a global crisis over a contagious new virus? Bestselling writer Gay Courter and her filmmaker husband learned the answer to that question in early February 2020, just as they were about to disembark from the Diamond Princess in Tokyo after a dazzling two-week southeast Asian cruise. Weeks before lockdowns and social distancing became the new normal, the Courters and their shipmates suddenly found themselves trapped in a posh penitentiary—courtesy of the Japanese Ministry of Health. Confined to their cabin and its balcony, they watched in terror as more and more sick and contagious passengers were loaded into ambulances and the world’s press swarmed the port. Rather than passively endure their nightmare-come-true, they launched a campaign to get themselves and everyone else off the ship. With the help of the global media and some well-placed connections, they managed to influence high-ranking U.S.government officials—right up to and including the White House—to bring everyone home to safety. Quarantine! is the insider’s book on the Diamond Princess episode, a suspenseful real-life drama recounting Gay and Phil’s twelve-day ordeal aboard ship, their tenacious efforts to get the U.S.government to repatriate them and other Americans, and their additional fifteen-day quarantine under federal order behind chain-link fencing at the pointedly less-than-posh Lackland Air Force Base in Texas. The COVID-19 crisis has affected the entire world. In her inimitable, long-admired voice, Gay Courter tells how it feels to wonder if you will be the next victim. See quarantinediamondprincess.com for updates about the book and Phil Courter’s forthcoming documentary, Quarantine! How We Survived the Diamond Princess Coronavirus Crisis.
