Book Description
Mike first began to develop his idea for the book in 1993. For over 15 years he has made notes and stashed them in a file and written a little here and there. He has almost always worked two jobs and his busy life did not leave much time to write, but he could never quit thinking about it. Finally he decided to finish it, if for no other reason than he could get the idea out of his head and quit daydreaming about it. In ancient Israel, God granted one wish to a Solomon and he became the richest and wisest of kings. What if God did it again, but this time it was for a teenager named Solomon Sanchez? Instead of choosing wisdom, what if he chose to be the greatest guitarist in the world? Anyone who has ever fantasized about being rich and famous, anyone who has dreamed of being a rock star, anyone who has enjoyed playing music video games will enjoy this story. It is a wild and fun ride with many twists and turns. There is much to gain from Solomon and his many mistakes and successes.

King Solomon's Carpet

Pages : 254
Book Description
From an Edgar Award–winning author: Murder intrudes on a student’s secret history of the London Underground in this “brilliantly unexpected” mystery (The Times, London). Jarvis Stringer is a young man of many peculiarities, but no obsession has taken hold quite like that of writing the strange and twisting history of the London Underground. To finance his project, he rents out cheap rooms in the long-disused West Hampstead schoolhouse he inherited—a crumbling monument to morbid local lore. The boarders, each eking out their invisible lives above—and beneath—the city’s surface, are a collection of strays, waifs, subway buskers, and loners, who are raising the concern of Jarvis’s relatives and more proper neighbors. But even Jarvis has become suspicious. One of his outcasts may be a killer who’s plotting something unforgettable and catastrophic—and Jarvis himself has unwittingly become a conspirator. “A jolting novel of psychological suspense,” King Solomon’s Carpet was the recipient of the Crime Writers’ Association Gold Dagger Award (The New York Times Book Review).
