Stories to touch the heart and mind
Sometimes good
people do bad  things
As a decorated officer, Eric Emerson is honor bound to defend the helpless, and trained to survive against
a ruthless enemy, yet these skills were useless to protect his family from a faulty legal system. Riddled
with guilt, he’s torn between his combat experience and the rules governing society. The conflict shatters
his marriage, his job, and his sanity, until she saves him from his demons. Together, they stumble upon
the Osiris study, a secretive government report that predicts a dire future unless there are draconian
sacrifices.  The attempt to unravel the mysterious nature of the study targets them for assassination until,
once again, Eric embraces his dark side.  The revelation about Osiris demands a horrific choice: ignore
what they’ve found or become the seed to mankind’s survival, but at a terrible cost.

Life in the small rural town of Lawton, VA is everything you can imagine: wonderful people, beautiful vistas,
and a peaceful environment to raise your family, except for one thing. The greed and vanity of a few men has
exacted a heavy toll on the community, and those whose lives have been forever affected have no idea. No
one knows, except Sara. In her subconscious mind, the nightmares that invade her sleep show the confusing
truth and feed her fears. But she never verbalizes the haunting images to her husband. Until the true sinister
nature of the clandestine EW operation is revealed and the couple is forced to struggle for their lives.
Only Sara knows the truth

The town of Tanglewood Falls offers breath-taking views, yet the serendipity is misleading. The impoverished people
and their forgotten community have been unwittingly exploited. Their act of trust and blind consent altered their
existence and the secret has remained buried, until Ryan returns to explore his heritage. For twenty years, he’s been
haunted by confusing images, recurring dreams rooted in his past. He’s driven to understand their meaning, to obtain
answers to his lost memories. Ryan’s search for truth collides with the folklore of the simple people and the belief
that their beautiful Annie is blessed. Together, they unravel the mystery, but at a price. They become targets of
those responsible for what happened to the town. As the truth is exposed, Ryan must grapple with his own reality; the
fact that his past, his nightmares, and Annie’s secret, everything is entangled in the desperate act of one lonely man.
The answers are buried
in the secrets of the past

Sometimes truth cuts
deeper than a lie
There’s something suspicious going on at Spenser Lake. People are disappearing and their bodies are never
found. The fear and uncertainty of who will be next is affecting every resident of the tranquil community, but
especially Kurt Hawkins. Two years after his wife goes missing, there are no clues, only the nightmares of
what happened in her last moments. The constant guilt that somehow he was responsible precludes any thought
of a normal life until he meets Danielle Gillette, a reclusive author with a rather large skeleton in her own
closet. When the secret is finally revealed, they both discover that sometimes the truth cuts deeper than a lie.
