American Immigrant

Birth to a Drama Queen

Growing up as the eldest daughter in an Asian immigrant family, Quynh constantly finds herself caught between two worlds. At home, she's expected to embody respect, academic excellence, and cultural values her parents brought from overseas. For Quynh, school isn’t just a place to study—it’s a battleground of shifting alliances, unspoken rules, and coming-of-age drama that unfolds. Navigating this ever-evolving social landscape, Quynh encounters the universal highs and lows of growing up, all while trying to reconcile her parents' strict values with the messy reality of adolescence in America. In middle school, Quynh is painfully aware of being “different” as she struggles to find her footing among cliques, first crushes, and lunchtime gossip. Her days are filled with navigating friendships that shift with each new trend and rumor and dealing with the occasional mean girl. The pressure of balancing academics with her desire to fit in pulls her in two directions, especially as her parents emphasize school over socializing. High school brings an entirely new level of chaos. Quynh, now more confident but still balancing two worlds, faces friendship drama that comes with misunderstandings, betrayal, and jealousy. Her first heartbreak, advanced classes, college applications, and keeping up appearances at home, where her parents still expect her to be the model daughter. By the time college comes around, Quynh begins to carve her own path, experimenting with independence in a way she never could at home. Yet drama continues to follows her, with roommates, clubs, and all of her countless relationships. From falling in and out of love to confronting her own ambitions, Quynh realizes the drama isn’t just about school—it’s about finding herself in a world that’s constantly pulling her in different directions. Will this drama queen ever stop now that she's had a taste of it?

Shadows of the Reich

As World War II draws to a close, the Allies race to capture Nazi scientists before the Soviet Union can. But for one American intelligence officer, Captain Nathaniel Harper, this mission is more than a professional duty—it's personal. His father, a renowned physicist, was forced to collaborate with the Nazis and died under mysterious circumstances in 1942. Now, Nathaniel is assigned to recruit one of the Third Reich's top scientists, Dr. Wilhelm Falk, who not only worked on rocket technology but also knew Nathaniel's father intimately. As Nathaniel delves deeper into Falk’s work, he uncovers unsettling truths about his father's role in the Nazi war machine. Falk, brilliant but unrepentant, claims that Nathaniel’s father played a pivotal part in designing weapons of mass destruction, and Nathaniel must confront the possibility that his father wasn't the victim he imagined, but an active participant in atrocities. Caught between his duty to secure Falk's knowledge for the U.S. and his desire for justice, Nathaniel finds himself at a moral crossroads. To complicate matters, he uncovers evidence of a covert Soviet plot to either capture or eliminate Falk, escalating the stakes as tensions rise between the Americans and the Soviets. In this novel, questions of loyalty, morality, and the blurry line between victim and perpetrator are explored against the backdrop of the secretive and morally ambiguous world of post-war intelligence.
