Jim Prock

Jim Prock took up writing after he retired and moved to California's Coachella desert. His first effort resulted in a cleverly-written children’s book called Gnorman the Gnorwegian Gnome that grew out of a story he wrote for his nine grandchildren about Gnomes living on the Norwegian island of Svalbard. The second was an engaging novel set in China, the Los Angeles area and Washington, D.C. entitled Consequences: The Future Will Reveal the Past—a story of history, love and politics. His third, The Art of Chicanery, was a story set in Idaho that pits the freedom loving way of life of its citizens against the growing call for more gun control in our society. That was followed by Under the Persian Moon, the story of a high-stakes rescue mission in Iran that is chock full of suspense. Now comes Nuclear Manifesto, a scenario in which he envisioned a dangerous ‘what if’ in the nuclear age. It weaves its fictitious political and military characters into a plausible sequence of possibilities as they grapple with real-world issues. The question of whether the example painted in this story could ever play out a real life is one you must decide for yourself.
