  In the twenty-second century, the GPC has convinced the government to severely cut budgets and programs, creating an underclass of many of its poor and working-class citizens. It is now the year 2108. The haves and the have-nots live in totally separate communities and with no real contact, aside from the soldiers who guard the perimeter that runs between them. 
  Penitentiaries that used to house criminals, mental institutions, and charities (welfares) are relics of the past. Either you are an asset to Haven’s society or you are thrown to the “other side,” never to return. 
  David Stuart is determined to make a difference to help the “discards” after he secretly slipped food in through the perimeter and created a bond with one of them. His life will never be the same once he encounters the horrors of Haven’ot.

  Justice is a matter of perspective. 
  A pleasant Sunday dinner at an Italian restaurant takes a nasty turn for Detective Erin O’Reilly when the waiter slits the throat of a long-time patron. It’s an open-and-shut case, but this murder is only the beginning. All across New York, captains in the Lucarelli Mafia family are being picked off in a series of carefully-orchestrated hits. 
  Erin and her K-9 Rolf, still recovering from the trauma of their last case, jump back into the action. They’ll need to stay sharp, especially since this isn't the first time they've tangled with the new boss of the Lucarellis, slick mafioso Vinnie Moreno. “The Oil Man” has a knack for slithering out of trouble, and he’s not alone. The Mafia has deep roots in New York City, some of which have insinuated themselves into the ranks of law enforcement. 
  Street justice is the rule of the day. Amid conflicting codes of honor, Erin finds herself questioning what justice really means, and whether it’s possible to take down the bad guys while staying on the side of the angels. And in the end, as she runs out of options, Erin may be in the most danger from herself.

  Welcome to the world of Illusion! As you embark on this journey with Clara and Ethan, I invite you to immerse yourself in a tale that challenges the very fabric of reality and perception. In a time when the lines between truth and illusion blur, I wanted to explore what it means to seek the truth in a world filled with deceptions. 
  This novel was inspired by the questions we all grapple with: What is real? How do we discern truth in a society that often presents us with façades? Clara, our determined investigative journalist, and Ethan, the reclusive neuroscientist, embark on a quest that leads them to confront not only external forces but also the intricacies of their own minds. Together, they navigate a labyrinth of illusions, uncovering secrets that have been carefully hidden and exploring the ramifications of their discoveries. 
  As you read, I hope you will reflect on your own perceptions and consider the myriad ways in which we construct our realities. The themes of this book resonate deeply in our current world, where misinformation can spread like wildfire and the search for authenticity becomes ever more vital. 
  I am grateful for the opportunity to share this story with you, and I hope it inspires thought-provoking conversations and introspection long after you turn the final page. Thank you for joining me on this exploration of truth, illusion, and the complexities of the human experience.
