Jocko Lee’s long-awaited novel of liberation, love and luck, Glass Wind Chimes, has been acquired!

Glass Wind Chimes has been acquired by Front Porch Publishing. It validates your dreams, gives you hope, let's you know that perfect person for you really is out there and that when the will is strong, there is a way.

Based on the life of Robert Cody, this thought provoking, fictional memoir starts out in the late 1990s with Cody working for a master ship builder. While testing one of the ships out on the high seas off the United States Pacific Coast/Vancouver, Canada, he encounters an unusual cloud mass that the local fishermen explicitly avoid; saying people have gone in and never come out. When curiosity gets the best of him, Cody decides to explore and discovers the last known landmass never having been chartered. Not being in any country’s territory, he now claims the island as his own.

Shortly after, Cody goes to Ireland to sign a ship deal for the company he works for and buys an Irish Lottery ticket ‘for the heck-of-it.’ A week later, he finds out he is now the richest man in the world. Thus, he has the funding to establish and settle his country. Little does he know, but North Korea has gotten wind of his island and finds it to be the perfect locale for a base to attack the United States. Cody is the owner and the law…

Lee has done a remarkable job in detailing the complexities regarding such an endeavor and so convincingly that it stirs a great longing to live in the Paradise Islands and cast this harried existence aside. Having spent over fifty years in several professions including being a fisherman, boat owner and working in the shipping industry, his writing is authentic and most believable.

He is currently working on two more manuscripts, Tar Kyler, Time Traveling Mercenary and The Travels of Jacob Spach, a fictional account based on the travels of his grandfather around the early 1900’s.
