    Anaya's past accents shadows that wrap around her—unseen, misunderstood, crushed by unimaginable expectations. The experience has left her scarred, her worth questioned, insecurities drowning her, and fears emerging from attempting to connect with other beings. Despite her many admirable and intelligent qualities, with each small progression she deemed herself worthy of, her mental health multiplied the uphill battle. The waves of failure, the deep ocean of judgment, and the grips of loneliness almost pushed her over the edge. Yet, even through her murk, a wan glimmer of hope would surface—convinced that she was born for something great.

    This 14th installment of the Jerry McNeal Series has Jerry and Gunter heading to Texas. 
    Along the way, Jerry finds himself dealing with unexpected visitors who challenge his patience and further test his psychic abilities. 
    Among the visitors is the ghostly spirit of Texas Ranger, Clive Tisdale, who is not a fan of dogs, refuses to tell Jerry why he is there, and if his presence has anything to do with Texas Ranger Raymond Hale. 
    Raymond Hale oversaw mob informant Antonio Maioriello until both men went missing years earlier and were presumed dead until recent weeks when Maioriello’s image started showing up in tourist photos taken outside the Alamo. 
    At first, this was presumed to be a camera malfunction, as no one recalled him being present at the time the photos were taken. 
    Then Maioriello showed up in a photo with the niece of Bruno Deluca – the man Maioriello informed on before being placed in the witness relocation program, and Deluca used his influence to demand answers. 
    Now, not only must Jerry locate the spirit who is causing the chaos, he must convince Bruno Deluca that Maioriello is truly dead. 
    Will Jerry and Gunter get to the Alamo in time to defend it from another invasion? 
    Will Tisdale change his stance about dogs? 
    Find out in Star Treatment – book 14 of The Jerry McNeal Series.

    In the far future, after a nuclear war, the world is separated into two realms, each under the protection of the all-powerful Commission. In Ecologia mammoths, wolves and sabre cats roam the world of Stone Age people, while Economica is populated by modern people enjoying technological convenience, complete with robots that serve every need. In Ecologia the Commission is worshiped as a deity, but in Economica it is resented as an obstructive and unaccountable bureaucracy.
    
    When Peter finds a portal between these realms, he illicitly sets up a life for himself in both worlds, knowing that he is in danger.
    
    But like everyone else he has no idea what the Commission really is, and when Peter's friend, Simon, figures it out and is silenced by sinister forces, Peter's questions about his future only become more complicated. His quandary exacerbated by the imminent closure of the portal, Peter has to make a choice about where he belongs; a choice that will be the most important he's ever made.
    
    Raising questions about what we mean by 'nature', 'humanity' and life itself, Destiny of a Free Spirit is a compelling debut that will keep you guessing till the end.

    Books 10-12 in The Eliminator Series, including: The Combative, The Return, & The Finish 
    The Combative 
    The battle with Wilson Ames continues to rage. Jacobs worries about the safety of Tiffany, and her parents. Concerned about having a repeat of what happened to his family, he hires a bodyguard to protect them. Nathan Thrower, an ex-Navy SEAL, is the man Jacobs chooses. But Thrower has his hands full, trying to thwart off repeated attempts at their lives. Jacobs, with a new ally in Thrower, gives Ames all he can handle. But the crime boss has ideas of his own on how to end the conflict, and he has a sinister plan on how to take out what Jacobs now holds dear. 
    The Return 
    Rich Mallette is out of prison, and he’s gunning for Jacobs. He’s willing to do anything it takes to eliminate The Eliminator, even if it means creating uneasy alliances with men who have been trying to take his place. 
    In addition to Mallette, Jacobs now has to worry about people he may have placed trust with in the past. Luckily, he still has Thrower by his side to help with the additional threats being thrown his way. Will Mallette finally succeed in taking down his long-term adversary by luring him into a trap? Or will Jacobs finally put an end to this fight? 
    The Finish 
    Brett Jacobs continues in his quest for revenge in this final installment of The Eliminator Series! 
    Rich Mallette is still a menacing force, and he's still got Jacobs first on his hit-list. Complicating matters is that Wilson Ames is still in the city, and trying to occupy the spot that Mallette once held. But there's not enough room for everybody, and nobody is safe. Will Jacobs finally get the revenge he has long been seeking? Or will he finally fall, and join his family again?
