Steven and the Sensei

A sequel to the book Worth Avenue as well as Tom & Serafina. Steven and The Sensei is book #1 of its own series and is a story about the character, Steven Jefferson Hoola. He is the youngest of nearly identical boy triplets, a son of Tom Hoola and his now deceased former wife Serafina. Following the death of his mother Serafina, he and his brothers relocate from Estonia to Palm Beach, Florida where they are raised in the palatial home of billionaire Tom and his new wife Greta. He has just turned twelve years old and is venturing off the path of good, resulting in him being sent to Hong Kong, China for back to back summers of immersion in the lessons of solitude and patience, tenants of the Karate and Jiu-Jitsu he is an expert in. The only way he agrees to go is if he can bring his brother's prized $100,000 sword. The sensei himself is also on a path of discovery as he is the future head of a Buddhist sect which is endangered due to pending reforms which greatly restrict his capability to earn money from training non-Buddhists. Fast paced and filled with action, this book is a real page turner!
