Snafu (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780971810556)

Glen C. Allison rescues readers from their daily lives through the exploits of Al Forte, a broken SEAL in New Orleans who recovers stolen children. Forte rises from the darkness of his self-inflicted misery to protect endangered kids in his safe house hidden in the shadows of the French Quarter. A simpler justice guides him through the hard-edged backdrop of the Big Easy to give suspense readers a harrowing taste of this city's secret evils. Glen has authored the three books of the Forte suspense series - MISCUE, NETBLUE, and SNAFU- and a nonfiction book, STILL STANDING, the story of the Williams Brothers' gospel group, published by Billboard Books. His short story, "The Christmas Monkey," appeared in the December 2008 release of the book, Christmas Stories from the South's Best Writers, by Pelican Publishing. Glen has written for Guideposts, Memphis Magazine, Mississippi Magazine, Ford Magazine, the Mississippi Business Journal, and others. Glen, owner of AllisonDigital, has written and produced virtually every type of marketing project: books, feature articles, video programs, broadcast commercials, print advertising, brochures, annual reports, company magazines, PC-based presentations, websites, press releases, executive speeches, workshops and other special events. He has worked as the co-owner of a business magazine, a sportswriter, the PR Director for a Phi Beta Kappa college, an editor of a children's home magazine, an oil rig worker, a freelance writer, and a parking lot sweeper. Glen and his wife Kathy claim the land of The King of Rock and Roll - Tupelo, Mississippi - as their home base. They range out from that point by camper and motorcycle and make frequent trips to the New Orleans streets of Forte. SNAFU, the third book in the Forte series, is scheduled for release in February 2013, and is already garnering praise as a strong followup to MISCUE and NETBLUE, the first books of the series.
