A birthday wish for manhood is granted, but at a price a young boy could have never foreseen. Manhood comes to Jim Ward through an unspeakable tragedy. Jim believes he has exorcised the demons of his youth when he becomes an assistant district attorney and marries Cooper Faircloth, the hard working heiress to a newspaper fortune. Jim’s redemption begins to fall apart when Cooper’s obsessive drive to be accepted in a man’s world of newspaper publishing in the 1960’s leaves him lonely and resentful. Sparks fly with the sudden reappearance of Chinky Mason, Jim’s troubled and alcoholic college sweetheart. When Jim’s ambition allows a clever criminal to outwit a flawed justice system, Jim discovers that his redemption is illusory. What does a man do when he realizes that he is not the man he wants to be and what can he do if he is preordained to fail?

William Darling is a lifelong story teller. As a trial lawyer he stood before juries weaving the testimony they had heard into an understandable story. Now as a novelist he creates memorable characters whose lives are driven by money, politics, lies, love and fate. He was an eye witness to many historical moments in the twentieth century. The back story of these events is often more interesting than the events themselves. His experiences as an assistant district attorney in Houston exposed him to both the outright brutality that one human being can inflict on another and the vicissitudes of the justice system that seeks to punish the guilty. He explored those issues and how great wealth plays a role in justice in his novel Morgan’s Point: A Texas Story. Anahuac, the sequel to Morgan’s Point will be published in mid-2016. He enjoys writing historical fiction with a focus on fate, predestination, relationships, newspapers and wealth. He enjoys life in two diverse environments: the country life on his ranch in the Central Texas Hill Country and the urban excitement that is Georgetown in Washington, D.C. He is married to Kathy Darling, who is a lawyer.
