Sinossi

The seamless process of presenting Ann's life is uncanny yet becomes one of deep and personal involvement for the reader.This is a story of a strong lady who would hold anyone accountable and fight against any injustice she encountered. Racism and bigotry were very prevalent throughout our country during the eras that she lived.During those eras, corrupt politicians were abundant, much like today, and Ann Browne would not tolerate their behavior.The small towns presented are just a small example of ones experienced by the author throughout his life. Describing himself as a South Texas Country Boy, our writer brings the language and daily life into this well-written story without effort. Many of the "Boom and Bust" accounts written about were real, and the craziness that each created was very much experienced by our writer. The life story of this amazing lady is one of sadness, high living, and tragedy, which presents a stalwart personality of adventure and unconditional love.The reader of Ann's story will not forget or be left without an emotional attachment to her and her life story.

    Three guests at the plushest hotel in Los Angeles die in their beds under mysterious circumstances. The hotel manager breathes a sigh of relief because he believes in the old superstition that bad things happen in a cycle of three. LAPD Detective Ed Browning and his partner arenʼt buying the managerʼs tale. They start investigating and soon hear the story that the sister of the dead girl is seeing her sisterʼs ghost, talking to her, and learning her death was not by natural causes. More suspicious than ever, Browning and his partner then are suddenly told to back off by their captain. This makes them even more doubtful that two old people and one young girl died of natural causes in the same hotel. Since they canʼt officially investigate, they turn to their friend Maisy Malone for help. Maisy rounds up a cadre of fellow amateur sleuths and sends them out to do the leg work Browning and his partner canʼt do. Maisy and company hit the streets and highways to dig up evidence, and in four days they meet at the same hotel with their witnesses and suspects.

    NOT GUILTY BY REASON OF INSANITY 
    Seven years after pleading not guilty by reason of insanity, Avery West agonizes over the reality that his time at the Hawai`i State Hospital is ending. He can’t imagine a life beyond the confines of his psychiatric facility, even if his schizophrenic symptoms are finally in remission. But having spent most of his adult life surviving with mental illness, he has found stability and is terrified of losing everything he’s fought for. Yet despite his reservations, Avery’s treatment team insists he’s ready to move on with his life. 
    After becoming the newest addition to a local sober home, Avery struggles to adapt to a world that fears and views him as damaged goods. Any slip-up will see him hospitalized again, tearing him away from a daughter who deserves to have her father back. But when he becomes involved with a coworker who believes Western Medicine has failed him to no end, Avery toys with the idea of what life in a perfect world would look like. Faced with controlling his destiny, can he hold it together or will he spiral into rapid decline? 
    From the award-winning author of One Hit Away comes Late Blight in the Ko`olaus, a galvanizing novel exploring the complexities and stigma of mental health, schizoaffective disorder, and where one goes after being found not guilty by reason of insanity.

    Wolf shifter and fashion designer Zane Bellamy has a secret: he's "face-blind," unable to recognize people easily no matter how often he's seen them. 
     
     
     
    Victoria Hawthorne has a secret, too, but if she's learned anything from teaching first graders, it's that the best way to keep a secret is to not tell anybody. She and Zane have that in common . . . but absolutely nothing else. 
     
     
     
    Haute couture collides with ordinary life when Vicki wins a dress design by Zane himself. She knocks him off his feet when they meet . . . and even so, his face-blindness means he won't recognize her the next time they see each other! 
     
     
     
    Vicki has no real plans to put down roots, especially because some of Virtue's founding families make it clear outsiders are unwelcome. 
     
     
     
    But when local-boy-made-good Zane returns to make her gown, everything changes in a heartbeat—even as Vicki fears there's no way this instant attraction can turn into something lasting. And although Zane can't deny the connection he has with Vicki, he's never really believed in fate . . . until circumstances run out of his control and he realizes he's about to lose everything.
