Escape from Mexico

Although trained as a mechanical engineer, Mr. Hladik has always maintained an interest in writing fiction. This departure from writing technical reports proved to be an unanticipated but enjoyable challenge. His first fledgling attempts produced a dozen short stories. The encouragement of his creative writing instructor, and his writing group, led him to expand one of his short stories into the novel, Escape From Mexico. Mr. Hladik resides with his wife in Phillipsburg, New Jersey.
