Tom's latest book: A Day in the Life

Have we an unalienable right to take our own lives?

That’s the question author Tom Walker asks in A Day in the Life, a satirical novel about a retired English professor who sees no reason to go on living.

Diagnosed with a prostate cancer that may or may not be treatable, George Noel Gordon Bombazine has given himself 16 hours to decide whether to go on living. Hour by hour, we relive his past as, like Hamlet, he grapples with the question of whether to be or not to be.

How Far Will a Guilty Man Go to Find Redemption?

Guilt and a desperate need to find redemption drive the antiheroes in Tom Walker's dark -- and often darkly funny -- stories:

• A gullible journalist falls for the 40-year-old stripper he profiles in a magazine
• A faithless husband abandons his family and joins a support group for lost souls
• A merciless prosecuting attorney grapples with the suicide of his gay son
• An aging misanthrope must make amends to five former victims
• An egoistic naval hero is haunted by apparitions of his dead wife and a mysterious little girl

The seven tales in Signed Confessions measure how far guilty men will go to obtain a pardon no one can grant but themselves.
