A scar from cheek to chin is all Marc Jordan remembers of the man kneeling over his dead mother.Now, 15 years later, Marc searches his memory for clues; he hopes to be the first to find the killer. Murder, blackmail, corruption and betrayal leave a trail from the storied vineyards of Spain to the wineries of Southern California, where no one is who or what they claim to be.Forced to accept a court case he does not want, Marc inadvertently unravels the threads that lead to solving his mother's murder. But with each revelation, his life spirals more and more out of control.A Man's Face is a multi-generational saga of treachery and corruption, set against the backdrop of the elite wine industry and courtroom drama. Since childhood, I've been torn between two worlds: writing and singing. It's difficult to serve "two masters," as they say, but I was compelled to do so. When I was not singing, I was writing; when I was not writing, I was singing. Now I do both. (While still working a day job!).I've learned, for me, that one creative expression nurtures the other. Much of my writing has a musical theme somewhere in the plot, or is the plot. Whether it's in my non-fiction writing about the power of music itself, in picture books and stories and, of course, in writing music and lyrics for songs.
