The Blue Rider

Mr. Fidel's first novel, The Blue Rider, published by XLibris in 2007, was a work of historical fiction set in World War II that was based upon a true story. In writing Daytona Massacre, a courtroom drama set in Daytona Beach, Florida in 1997 that centers on a capital murder trial, Mr. Fidel relied not only on his familiarity with his hometown, but also his twenty seven year career as a prosecutor in the Queens County District Attorney's Office in New York City.
