    THE KING OF SILK, historical fiction.Michael reaches for the light switch and chides himself, again. There’s no electricity in the 15th century. But there could be.In his single-minded drive to succeed, businessman Michael Patriate allowed love to slip away. And when his picture on the cover of High Finance Magazine validates the years of sacrifice, a midnight attack on a Manhattan street interrupts his celebration and him to the backwoods of Renaissance Italy.Fearing the brand “witch,” he conceals his identity and his understanding of 21st century business and technology.But he can’t check his ambition, the drive which cost him love in the past and threatens to do it again.He goes from laborer to successful provincial merchant, even moves down the coast to military and trade powerhouse Venice. And the knowledge in his head keeps nagging him.When he takes shortcuts by introducing new concepts into the silk industry, he hits opposition from powerful elements of a culture which ruthlessly guards the status quo.And when he faces the ultimate adversary, he just may see himself.How would you make your way if thrust into an impossible situation where all you possess, down to the culture and technology that define your world, is stripped away? What choices would you make? How far would you go?
