It’s the 4th of July
Today is the 4th of July, or the anniversary of the founding of The United States of America. It’s supposed to be a celebration of the independence of our country but chaos, intimidation, and a lack of respect for the opinion of others seems to be the flavor of the day and it is not only disappointing but embarrassing.
I hope you take a moment to say a prayer and give thanks to the men and women who not only made sacrifices to establish this country as well as to keep it free, but honor those who made the supreme sacrifice in order for you and I to enjoy the freedom and liberties so many people across the globe do not have.
I highly recommend each of you – whether you live in the USA or not – to read the Declaration of Independence. It’s free to read on your Kindle, and you can grab a copy if you click here.

Book Description:
World War II. During the attacks on Berlin in the winter of 1943-44, wave after wave of British bombers swept over northern Europe and dropped their lethal loads on the German capital. A fair percentage of the bombers would fail to return from these operations, and RAF planners calculated the life expectancy of the airmen in weeks rather than months.
Therefore it did not seem strange when a Lancaster named D-Daisy landed at its base in England after a bombing run, and a member of the crew was found dead.
However, one person soon came to the conclusion that this man had been murdered. And the person who discovered this happened to be blind since birth. Her name was Daisy and she was the victim’s wife. She was very blonde and very pretty; also very young. Therefore, no one would listen to her. So she was going to have to find the murderer on her own.

But there was one exception. It was the time that Killen lived up to its name and a little piece of heaven…became…a little piece of hell. When Thomas Dalton was 13-years-old, a string of murders in a North Georgia received unwanted national attention. With the passing of time, facts got distorted, turning Killen into a macabre tourist destination. But for Thomas, it became personal when his own parents, suddenly disappeared and were subsequently declared dead. He goes to school to become an investigative reporter and gets a job at a national cable television station. Thomas then is assigned to a national case tracking down a serial killer. What Thomas doesn’t realize is the serial killer he is looking for, will not only solve a national mystery it will also solve his own mystery. Throughout Thomas’s journey he is driven to find out who killed his parents. But he also desperately wants to restore the reputation of Killen and rebuild the family business. The only question that remains is…can he make Killen a little piece of heaven once again.

Another healing by Elgin Decatur rattles Dr. Kate Magee. This time it’s her patient, a boy with terminal cancer and the son of a US Senator. A bad day stretches into a bad week due to a nosy reporter, the now public news that Elgin did time for the murder of his wife, and the personal transformation he attributes to his nine-day coma. Most troubling, Elgin is an old flame from high-school, and Kate still can’t resist him.
Against her better judgement, Kate agrees to go along with Elgin on a six-day hike on the Appalachian Trail with five other mismatched souls, all desperate for Elgin’s healing touch. The hike is more than she bargains for. Someone is stalking the group while one of the hikers grows increasingly unhinged. Ignoring her daughter’s pleas to come home, and her own moral objections to Elgin’s unconventional “therapy,” Kate traverses deeper into unknown territory. Her motive to stop Elgin is soon clouded by her enduring passion for the charismatic man and the secret she carries with her.
Just as Kate’s disappointment in Elgin’s inability to heal anyone grows – and her own exhaustion leads to resignation – tragedy strikes beyond Kate’s worst fears.
Can Kate put her faith in Elgin’s hands?

That all changes, however, when a near-death experience forces him to confront something from the other side – something desperately evil – and it takes everything he has to ensure he isn’t dragged to hell with it…
As a child, Eddie witnessed the death of his little sister – a tragic event that destroyed his family and left him on a descent into despair. As an adult, he has no job, lives on his best friend’s sofa, and doesn’t particularly care that he is the loser his best friend tells him he is.

But he hasn’t woken up alone.
Everywhere he goes this entity is there, haunting him. It is making him weaker, and it won’t be long before it takes his place in this world completely.
What’s more, Eddie doesn’t yet realise that there is a reason this demon has chosen him. Discovering that reason may be the key to finding his purpose in a world he has rejected.
But first, he has to survive.
Can he escape this demon that has attached itself to his soul? Or will he lose his life before he can become something greater?

Chicago is Jimmy Flannery’s kind of town. A tough Irishman with street smarts, he’s part of a political machine that runs on favors and friendships. Flannery’s particular piece of the patronage is the 27th Ward, and anything that happens there is his business. Even murder.
So when an antiabortion demonstration ends with a bomb blast that kills a pretty young girl and an old woman, Flannery takes it personally. But someone’s stonewalling the investigation, and Flannery’s starting to wonder if the bombing was political, or as a cover-up for murder. Something smells rotten — from the Gold Coast to the South Side. And when the killer goes after Flannery’s lady love, Flannery doesn’t just get mad — he gets as mean as a junkyard dog — on the scent of the dirty politics mixed with passion and revenge, a very deadly combination . . .
