A policeman stands over a man in the back of a pickup truck. He shoots the man three times in the dark. He looks up and aims his semi-automatic handgun at a woman sitting in the driver's seat as she watches in terror through the rear window. She screams. He fires one more time. This time the bullet travels directly at her head. Exploding glass splatters her face, neck and shoulders. His body rages with adrenaline and he yells, "Get out of the truck!" She falls out of the truck and onto the ground crying. She calls out for her boyfriend in the truck bed. The officer growls, "Shut up!" Her face and neck are covered in blood. She may bleed out on the ground leaving no witnesses. She is identified as the twenty-seven year old mother of a boy and a girl. She is also a scholarship student at the local state university. Armed men force her into a chair and handcuff her to a table. Homicide detectives interrogate her asking the same questions over and over. They show no concern for her unarmed boyfriend. Instead all they seem to want or need is for her to confess to some crime. This novel is based on a true story which was documented in court records.

A local sheriff is watching a nighttime baseball game. A woman, who he recognizes, approaches him in the high school stands. She says, "My daughter is being raped by your deputy." He races to his patrol car. He is about to leave the parking lot when she waves him down and says, "They have it all on video." Moments later he receives a call from the deputy accused of sexual assault. He orders the deputy to meet him at a nearby park. He calls a patrol car heading for the victim's house and orders the officer to stay away from the crime scene. He finds the deputy at the designated park leaning against his van with his arms spread far apart. There is blood streaming down his face. His left eye is swollen completely shut and his lips are busted. The deputy tries to talk but only stutters in broken sentences. The sheriff refuses to take the deputy's statement. He leaves him at the park in the care of two officers while he travels directly to the home of the victim. The victim's family gives the sheriff a copy of a video recording. The sheriff demands the original but the family refuses to turn it over. The victim's brother-in-law says, "The original video is buried safely somewhere in the county." More evidence of more possible victims turns up by midnight. The video hits the internet and then the local television news. It does not take long and more women come forward to accuse the same deputy. This novel is based on true life events which were documented in court records and the facts may be stranger than fiction.

A mother's love is invincible. Make that mother a veteran commando, and one has a formidable opponent, nothing can stand in her way. Now without command or home planet, Maja, former colonel in the Laman Confederation, hires on as a mercenary in the outback Ortiz System in the hopes of finding her lost child. Separated during a gruesome civil war, Maja intends to use her talents as a star fighter and frontier navigator to penetrate an ice fortress where her daughter is believed held captive. No easy task. Ortiz has been seized by the rapacious Vacjiis, who are bent on draining the resources of the planet as quickly as possible. To this design they have brought in scores of mercenaries and outlaws to help in their campaign of ruthless exploitation. Maja, a highly decorated professional soldier, is forced to momentarily ally herself with this scum in order to get closer to Lord Vaxa, the Vacjiin viceroy who controls Ortiz. Vaxa can help her get to her daughter, while Maja in turn can help Vaxa get hold of special, priceless stones that will help finance his plans for future conquest. The trade-off is a risky one from the start; Vaxa holds the better cards and, like all Vacjiis, is noted for his cunning and deception. Forever the warrior and risk-taker, her daughter's rescue paramount, Maja must accept the odds.

For widower Steven Riley, dating in the 21st century was like navigating through unchartered waters. He soon learns that relationships in the New Age are swift, serious, and capricious. Therefore, rekindling an old flame, Susan Mitchell, his former high school sweetheart, seemed like a good way to cope with loneliness after his daughter, America Riley, marries then moves to another city. While Steven faces the melancholy of nostalgia, tantalized by the obsequiousness of Susan Mitchell, he finds that rekindling the golden moments with his first love comes at a cost. Haunted by the apparitions of Mercedes, his deceased wife, he must consequently choose between remaining faithful to Mercedes or to starting a new life with Susan. Meanwhile, America, and her soon to be husband, the prominent and intriguing young bachelor from Miami, Leonardo M. Satanas, will soon learn, as many newlyweds have, that newfound romances generally do not survive through the first season of this turbulent New Age. The young couple will be challenged by the temptations of infidelity and unarmed with naivety. On the contrary, Steven will soon realize that faithfulness has not evolved into a lost virtue, even in these Post-Modern times. For Steven, the test of faithfulness will become as present and as demanding today as it was when Mercedes was still alive. Caught between two worlds, his old-school sentiments and the opposition of contemporary dating standards, Steven will find himself in the center of a battle between two women who are fighting for him: mind, body, and soul. Will he choose to rekindle his old romance with Susan or will he remain faithful to his deceased wife forever? This is a metaphysical journey into faith and self-introspection, premised upon Steven's inquiry into the degradation of morality in America, his encounter with life after death, and a vow of everlasting love that may truly withstand the test of time.
