In late 2005 FUGUE was finally printed. Unfortunately, none of them have ever shipped and they probably never will because Wild Roses Productions has apparently closed up shop. I'd like to extend my apologies to anyone who purchased a copy directly from the publisher.

LYNCHVILLE POP. 5150 REVIEW BY VICTORIA TARRANI, A TOP 500 AMAZON.COM REVIEWER (previously featured in the DEVIANT MINDS webzine:
In a tightly woven plot, Brent Zirnheld's writing is gritty,
down to earth, and realistic. His detailed descriptions
touch all the five senses. They bring to mind the everyday
things we all run into in one way or another. It is quite a
feat for a debut novel.
With low self-esteem, a shattered romance, and a
non-confrontational personality, James is a reluctant hero.
He must salvage an account in Lynchville, and is carrying a
supply of wood stains in the back of his ancient Corolla for
just that purpose. However, his life changes dramatically
when a perky, young brunette, who just happens to be running
away from a man who wants to kill her, climbs into the trunk
of his car at a gas station.
Brooke is world wise, knows how to manipulate men to get
what she wants, and is afraid. She attaches herself to
James. The goal is to stay alive, and thus begins the
journey of danger. Along the way, James gains self-respect
and confidence.
Filled with adventure, action, drama, and passion this is a
book that you may just find you read quickly, then read
again to simply enjoy the way the words work together.

"Lynchville Pop. 5150 is a seriously good book. All of the characters are realistic and believable. You care about the good ones and you want to give the bad ones a slap. Brooke is very sexy and I'd give her one any time! The story line is very well planned and really enjoyable. Brent Zirnheld describes the town and the characters brilliantly.
