Bücher von Tom Lyons

Tom Lyons wrote a lot of poetry in the 70's and 80's and had some success at being published in a couple of poetry magazines. His job as an Auditor, A COO and a Management Consultant kept him on the road for nearly 30 years. During the last few years Tom turned to writing novels, first a western and now working on a mystery. Five years ago he bought the New England Mobile Book Fair, the largest independent brick and mortar book store in New England. Recently among author events he has started holding well attended poetry readings. This led to having a poetry group meet at the store twice a month. He was once again inspired to create. This is some of his new work.

It is the year 1967, the summer of love. ...From the midst of tranquil suburbia to the radical streets of Boston, Tune starts off with a blast like a rocket, the capsule finally crash landing in Berkley. Haight-Ashbury, the commune in Marin, the dealers, the action, and our hero never misses a beat. He is part of the scene. Incredible events lead one to the next, the landscape surreal, and the characters bouncing one off the other. The "peace" that is sought belies the chaos of the now.Catapulted by the times, driven by the ambition of great wealth, power, fame, and the promise of having it all, two lives cross in Beirut Lebanon and are forever changed. Set against the background of a country spiraling into a civil war, where together they had hoped to build an illicit empire, the action and intrigue heightens. This is a compelling book from start to finish, taking the reader to places where they've never been, at a time when the world was getting turned topsy-turvy. Tune is an engrossing tale.
