  "The Adventure of the Solitary Cyclist", one of the 56 Sherlock Holmes short stories written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, is one of 13 stories in the cycle collected as The Return of Sherlock Holmes.
  Holmes is contacted by Miss Violet Smith of Farnham, Surrey about an unusual turn in hers and her mother's lives. Violet's father has recently died and left his wife and daughter rather poor. There was an ad in the news asking about their whereabouts. Answering it, they met Mr. Carruthers and Mr. Woodley, the former a pleasant enough man, but the latter a bully. They had come from South Africa, where they had known Violet's uncle Ralph Smith, who had now also died in poverty and apparently wanted to see that his relatives were provided for. This struck Violet as odd, since she and her family had not heard a word from Smith since his departure for South Africa 25 years ago. Carruthers and Woodley explained that before dying, Ralph had heard of his brother's death and felt responsible for his survivors' welfare.

In another, she finds her most trusted friend, a stone dragon she calls Pow-pow. Hiding her growing powers from her mage family started out as a childish prank, but now she uses them to go on secret adventures.

  When grown-up Wynter suddenly reappears years later, Khalid falls in love. All too soon, however, she is ripped from him again. As Wynter and Pow-pow fight for their lives against a mage who would use Wynter and her father’s Rings of Power to control the vast worlds across space, Khalid fights for his people and his rightful place on Earth. 
  Can an alien princess and her dragon find her way back to her beloved sheikh, or will their responsibilities keep them apart forever?

  The fifth story in the Chosen to Serve series revolves around the corruption obvious in the 2020 election. Jimmy is charged by the Lord to expose the corruption to the American people, discussing the founding principles of the Grand Experiment that was the United States of America. 
   Patriotism and Christian principles are dealt with, as Jimmy accomplishes his ministry, for the Lord’s purposes. Issues of information manipulation are prominent and the struggle incumbent in a Believer living in a corrupt world, called to stand for truth. 
   Wikipedia says that Propaganda is communication used to influence or persuade an audience to further an agenda and may be selectively presenting facts to encourage a particular perception; or using loaded language to produce an emotional rather than a rational response. The digital age has given rise to new ways of disseminating propaganda; bots and algorithms are being used to create computational propaganda and fake or biased news. 
   Be careful little eyes what you see and be careful little ears what you hear.
