He practiced diagnostic radiology and nuclear medicine for forty years, witnessing awesome advances in medical imaging technologies greatly improving patient care. Yet he realized that his care for patients had limitations imposed by societal detriments--poor critical thinking, ill-conceived and constraining dogma/superstition, as well as poor insurance and public policy embraced, occasionally by healthcare personnels, and more significantly by the general public. His first published book, The New Old Testament, was an attempt to awaken people to the why and how of their poor critical thinking.

What if your greatest secrets became public? For the students at Alexandria Prep, a series of hacks leads to a scandalous firestorm—and the students are left wondering whose private photos and messages will be exposed next.

Someone—no one knows who—has hacked into the phones of the school’s social royalty and leaked their personal messages and photos. At first it was funny—everyone loved watching the dirty private lives of those they envied become public. But when things escalate, the students realize anyone could be a target. When Anna returns to school for senior spring, she’s initially grateful that all eyes are on everyone else’s problems...and not on her humiliating breakup with her basketball-star boyfriend. But as the hacks begin to shatter lives and threaten futures, Anna races to protect those she loves—as well as her own devastating secrets. If only the students of Alexandria Prep could turn back the clock so they knew then what they know now: sometimes we share too much. ★ "This debut novel is timely, cautionary, and compelling." —VOYA, starred review "In an age of adult anxieties over digital privacy, this book is #relevant." —Kirkus Reviews
