Summary

Dorothy Lundegaard helps her brother John run Lundegaard Investigations, a business their father ran from his retirement from the St. Paul, Minnesota, police force until his death in 1935. The business just barely ekes by, but helping people with problems means more to Dottie than any other work she could possibly find.
 
People like Charles Meyer, a man still holding out hope for the sister he hasn't seen since the day her hand slipped out of his while walking through the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago in 1893. Just sixteen, and never seen again.
 
Her disappearance is the coldest of their father's cold cases, the one he never solved despite decades of effort. But Dottie possesses resources her father never had. Maybe, just maybe, she can help her brother finish the work their father started so many years ago.
 
"The White City Disappearance," a short story in the continuing Dorothy Lundegaard Mysteries.
Available since: 10/27/2024.
Print length: 34 pages.

    The intervention of a quadriplegic saved Nguyen Huu Minh from a mugging on the streets of Baltimore while attending Johns Hopkins University. That man’s faith 
changed Minh’s life. 
Minh’s new faith brings him into conflict with his father’s business interests in Vietnam and the mysterious powers supporting his father. Estranged from his father 
and shunned by his family, Minh learns to support himself by working as a translator for Americans coming to Vietnam during the waning years of the war. 
Finally, with the fall of Vietnam, another man’s intervention provides Minh with what he needs to flee the doomed country. With a boat, a crew, and a group of passengers, including a young French nun, Sister Carlene, and the thirty-five orphans she has charge of, Minh starts his escape to Thailand. 
But Minh learns that there are some enemies that cannot be fled from; instead, these adversaries must be faced and resisted. He discovers that he is in the middle of a war, not with flesh and blood, but with spiritual powers bent on destroying him and all those seeking escape. 
Minh discovers what intervention is when he must risk everything to save those he loves. In the process, he experiences the reality of the spiritual war that rages unseen by most. 
Charles de Andrade’s books draw on places he has lived, people he’s met, friends he’s made, and stories he’s been told.
