We've been hearing from a lot of Steel fans about when will the
next book will be published and their thoughts about a new plot line. I’ve completed the outline for book II and
will assure you that Jo Jo, Tony and the Negritos will be joining Steel for
part dalawa of an action packed Philippine treasure hunting adventure. And for
those Rosa fans-- Yes she is back in force.
Of course, there will be Japanese treasure, corrupt Marcos cronies and a
plethora of sexy women to drive Steel nuts. There will complications on-- just how the
hell is Steel supposed to get treasure out of the country without Marcos’
henchmen getting hold of it? Will Steel continue his relationship with the
beautiful Filipina journalist Vida? What
of Antonio—will he reappear?
I apologize for the shortage of blog posts as
I have taken some time off from writing to teach a couple of classes at the
Virginia Military Institute. One class
is a History of Counterinsurgency an overview of various guerrilla wars—including
analysis of the U.S.’s long time involvement in the Philippines starting during
the Spanish American war, Moro Wars and helping the Marcos government combat
the Communist New People’s army. The
second course is a historical overview of the U.S. government’s “War on
Drugs.” Interacting with the students
keeps me sharp and current with intelligence related topics. In any case, always happy to hear from folks
interested in Steel’s Treasure and those adventurer’s looking for Yamashita’s
treasure.
