Mystery:
MISSING ON MAPLE STREET
When precocious ten-year-old Emily Anders goes missing while in the care of the elderly neighbor whom she'd befriended, mounting circumstantial evidence focuses suspicion on one of the other neighbors.
However, the occurrence is also eerily similar to a past tragedy which occurred exactly 100 years earlier in the historic home.
The tenants in the aging Victorian house where Emily shares an apartment with her newly divorced father struggle to deal with Emily’s mysterious disappearance as they face their own personal struggles - and prejudices.
Find out what happened to Emily -- and learn how one small child can affect the lives of those around her.

WWII history:
Publishing a non-fiction book about my father-in-law's WWII experiences had not been part of my grand author's plan (assuming I had such a plan). However, immersing myself in WWII for the months it took me to create ONE SOLDIER'S WAR was both an educational and inspirational experience for which I will always be grateful.
PFC Alton Haight's poignant letters home to his mother and the journal entries he penned, starting in North Africa in 1942 and ending in Germany at war's end in 1945, are supported with historic pictures and background notes to allow the reader to see the world as he saw it... because this isn't just his story, it's every soldier's story.
"December 31, 1942 - Our first air raid. Our guns fired and we claimed one plane. This was one of the greatest thrills of my life." From the journal of PFC Alton Haight
Periods of heart-stopping intensity were followed by long periods of monotony, periods of relentless rain by bouts of intensive heat, and a war that a young soldier believed would be over within months would consume over 2 1/2 years of his life.
One Soldier's War will take you on one soldier's WWII journey from North Africa to Italy and then into France and Germany as Allied troops battled Hitler's army in a bloody war to save the world from the reign of a madman.
