Anonymous
Anonymous is a series of stories. Stories are what make the world go round. And they're also what keep a group of prisoners going. Everyday, locked up in their cell, these prisoners spill their guts to the others through toilets and drain pipes, hoping to pass the time until they are able to see the light of day. Some of the stories, they disclose things that only locked up criminals should hear. The other stories, they explain why most people would agree that this group of misfits should be locked up.
Dedicated to the author of "Fight Club," Anonymous is a homage to Chuck Palahniuk.
"If ever there was a writer molded like me, it's Jason Tanamor!" - Chuck Palahniuk, best-selling author of Fight Club, Choke and Invisible Monsters.

Riches To Rags
Riches to Rags is the story of a mentally ill street person--Dr. Merritt Hall-Davis, known on the street as "Molly." Merritt is born into a wealthy family, and for a while is a successful physician, as well as a happy wife and mother. But outbursts stemming from her mental illness disrupt what had been the perfect family life.
Merritt's mental illness is characterized by voices that torment her mercilessly, asleep or awake, and drastic mood swings. Although she receives treatment for her mental condition, she eventually runs away from her sorrows.
Riches to Rags covers a wide array of human emotions. It is a love story and a tragedy; it is a tale of hope and hopelessness; and it is a story of great courage in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds.

Centurion
A longing heart.
An unlikely friendship.
Love...and the bitterest of betrayals.
Who was the man ordered to crucify Christ?
What did he witness that led him to proclaim, “This was surely the Son of God?” Traditionally, we named him, the Centurion Abenadar, and we know almost nothing about him. The novel, Centurion, gives life to Centurion Abenadar.
Abenadar’s life is based on primary source documents about the Roman Legion. Abenadar was close enough to the Procurator of Judea, Pontius Pilate, that Pilate trusted him with the responsibility of the controversial and potentially explosive crucifixion of Christ. At the same time, Abenadar was a man to whom Pilate effortlessly gave the dirty work of the crucifixion, the execution for which Pilate himself would not take responsibility.
