An inspiring story, in the spirit of Field of Dreams, about one of our nation’s most eccentric and important star athletes, and the seeds of a social movement that changed the course of American history. Rudy is a Black man in his 70s and the janitor of the same boy’s orphanage where he was raised. Years ago, he had a chance at the life he wanted, but the Vietnam War, a broken heart, and a life filled with people telling him that he could never succeed, pushed him to the shadows. And he’s been fine hiding there ever since. But when he discovers a mint-condition Satchel Paige baseball card worth over $100,000, he is magically transported back to 1936 when Paige, the very best player in baseball, is locked out of the majors due to his race. Barnstorming the country, mowing down baseball’s biggest white stars in exhibition games from coast to coast, Rudy learns how this singular talent and eccentric star of the ‘Negro Leagues’ cut through racism and the ravages of the Depression to put baseball’s color line on notice. Paige will ultimately square off with the New York Yankees’ brightest young phenom, Joe DiMaggio, in an epic extra-inning showdown. On the journey of a lifetime, Rudy will learn that life is worth fighting for even in the face of impossible odds.

Love has a brother . . . and his name is hate.

Life was never easy for Marcus, even before his parents' murder/suicide in a seedy trailer park in Florida. Now he's landed in Vegas with his older brother, Mac, hoping to start over. But plans usually go sideways when Mac's involved. He's a mean brawler, and Marcus all too often ends up on the receiving end.    Then Marcus meets Trina—a ray of hope in his sea of despair. He's smitten. Trina, however, has a thing for bad boys, and Mac is as bad as they come.    After an unlikely stroke of good fortune dumps a heap of cash in their laps, their pressure-cooker existence explodes and all hell breaks loose. 

Death Valley is a story of how far you can push someone before they finally push back. It's about love, greed, and the wide-open desert where men mostly end up dead.
