While the residents of the Realm devote their lives to pursuing the beauty and grace of dance, Rowan strives secretly to pursue her true passions. Although her own mother is a famous winner of the country’s annual Competition, Rowan has other plans.
But she soon starts to question whether the Realm is really what it seems. What has happened to her mother, who has been away on a victorious tour for the Realm? Is Rowan alone in her suspicions?

Leo and his hulk of a neighbor, Mosby, share adventures, not all good, in the course of twenty of their twilight years. The two are a classic mismatch: Leo the cerebral type, Mosby a low-watt bulb. But Mosby is a faithful friend, off-key, and impossible for Leo to shake.
The Last Act is a rapid-fire, dark humor, buddy story, sometimes irreverent, improbable yet real, with surprises at every turn.
Leo eventually discovers the secret to life, one that is built on a universal truth than many people miss until they open their eyes. The answer is never far away if you pay attention.")

"Somehow, Michael was able to recreate the design image I’d had in my head when I imagined what my book would look like. I received a lot of great entries to my contest, but as soon as I saw Michael’s design, I knew it was the one I wanted."
