Daniel Martínez era el epítome de un joven universitario en su mejor momento: atlético, con un cabello castaño que parecía resistirse al desorden, ojos color café que reflejaban una mezcla de inteligencia y agotamiento, y una piel trigueña que delataba sus horas bajo el sol. Con 1.80 m de altura y un físico trabajado, no era sorpresa que llamara la atención...
Marianna Vasquez-Anselmo looked at Peter Samson's sleeping form, and grinned. The tall, dark-skinned young man whom she affectionately referred to as her "Angelito Negro" or Black Angel, was asleep at last. Hard to believe that this loco American was the same guy she met eight months, when he barged into the Student Affairs Office at the Universidade Catolic...
She opened the door and looked at me. I saw her eyes light up with dumbfounded fear and her lips murmur speechlessly. I looked her up and down assessing how she's changed since I'd seen her last. She seemed unable or unwilling to move. "If you were to step back, I could enter this dwelling," I said. She did so. I walked in and told her to close the door. T...
Family, what's up? Ares Jean-Baptiste is the name, and according to my parents, and the Miami-Metro police department's traffic cops, I'm a bad apple.

Ria sat with her head down in a hospital conference room. Carlos was in surgery, but the doctors had said that things looked bleak. The hospital had given the Cabo Blanco team use of one of the conference rooms to wait in to avoid the prying eyes of the press. The room was filled with Carlos' pit crew and mechanics, as well as the a number of other members o...
I'm a Navy sailor, not a master spy. My paperwork had Fermin Ramos on it and I didn't have the slightest idea how to get paperwork that said anything else. I was taking on a crazy amount of risk. The trip to Haiti had been chancy, but the weather had cooperated and the small fiberglass hulled sailboat, pushed along by a motor as long as the fuel had held ou...
Desde el lujoso ático que mi hermana Afrodita me había "preparado" observé como la oscuridad de la noche atenazaba la ciudad...una ciudad anclada en una época que no era la mía. Porque sí, yo soy Heracles, el Hércules de la mitología griega y romana, un semidiós de la antigua Grecia traído de nuevo a la vida por su divino padre porque, aún en un ti...
Franz Kafka had a great influence on writing and literature in the 20th century. Even today, strange and/or creepy stories are called Kafkaesque. In his novella "Die Verwandlung" (usually translated into English as "Metamorphosis") a man slowly turns into a cockroach. In my version of Metamorphosis, I go one up on Kafka.
