In American Junkie, Tom Hansen takes us on a non-stop into a land of desperate addicts, failed punk bands, and brushes with sad fame selling drugs during the Seattle grunge years. It’s a story that takes us from the promise of a young life to the prison of a mattress, from budding musician to broken down junkie, drowning in syringes and cigarette butts, shooting heroin into wounds the size of softballs, and ultimately, a ride to a hospital for a six-month stay and a painful self-discovery that cuts down to the bone. Through it all he never really loses his step, never lets go of his smarts, and always projects quintessential American reason, humor, and hope to make a story not only about drugs, but a compelling study of vulnerability and toughness.

The rural swampland of south Florida provides a vivid backdrop for a scheme to take down the American government. Rogue CIA agents and a rich rancher conspire to develop radar-jamming and remote guidance systems that control civilian aircraft from the ground. Following two midair disasters over the skies of south Florida in the course of a month, the FBI and NTSB are at odds whether the crashes were simply a coincidence or a criminal act. Meanwhile, recently fired sheriff’s deputy, Willy Banks, sets out on his own to investigate a string of bizarre deaths in the small community of Seminole Bend and discovers evidence that could link those deaths to the recent air tragedies. A web of intrigue unfolds, and the cast of fictional characters are interwoven with historical events and actual places to lure the reader into an entertaining labyrinth of Deep South culture, governmental stratagem and international conspiracy. The only way out is through the last page.

Counterpoint

Wagering on pro football is a hobby for fans who enjoy the thrill of sports gaming. For serious gamblers, it can be a profitable venture. For those who can control the game's outcome, it is nothing less than a gold mine. Carl, son of legendary NFL quarterback Billy West, was following in his dad's footsteps when life as he knew it came crashing down. After his dream was shattered, Carl barely survived the rigor of college academics, graduating near the bottom of his class in Mass Media. Unable to find a job as a sportswriter, Carl settled for the only position he could find: a part-time obituary consultant for the Eau Claire Gazette. Carl quickly realized the death notices he published had bizarre similarities, and soon he suspected foul play. Propelled by curiosity, Carl discovered a conspiracy he unwittingly created. With his family and friends in grave danger, Carl must find a way out. But that foreboding path leads directly through the National Football League, and the honor and reputation of every player, past and present, is at stake-including his father's. Bend of Honor is a riveting sports mystery thriller filled with suspense, drama, twists and turns at every corner, and a stunning ending. You will never watch pro football the same way again

A bemused, stoop-shouldered figure who is more than a mere speaker—let’s call him a protagonist—stalks the poems of Falling to Earth. With candor and an almost grandiose simplicity, Hansen describes the limitations of his middle-aged body and, in so doing, the limitations of his enterprise in mid-life: the gracelessness of survival. Falling to Earth is the journey of a vibrant soul refreshing itself poem by poem.—Molly Peacock, from her forewordTom Hansen taught writing and literature for 35 years before retiring to the Black Hills of South Dakota. His credits include Paris Review, The Iowa Review, and The American Scholar.
