BLURB: Mabel Wickles has just entered the computer age.  And not a minute too soon.  With strange lights emanating from the empty house next door, her dear friend Charlie Thompson accused of murdering a woman, and a new sheriff in town who seems totally unqualified, will this senior sleuth use her new little laptop to dig up some clues?  After all, she is Parson’s Cove’s most highly decorated amateur detective.  (She’s Parson’s Cove’s only amateur detective.)  But with her best friend Flori Flanders and her computer mentor Nathan Horne to support her, maybe Mabel can solve these seemingly unrelated mysteries and not have to disturb the town’s favorite Sheriff––Reg Smee––who is just starting to enjoy his retirement in Hawaii.  That is, if she can figure out how to crack all the new-fangled computer jargon and SAVE AS MURDER.

BLURB: Four teens become friends, giving one another alibis for getting out of the house.  One teen is amply endowed, another is of mixed blood, the third is overly fashion conscious, while the fourth is demurely pretty and the result of an unwanted pregnancy. The fourth has both parents at home but they aren’t thrilled about raising a child.  What began as recreation for the kids is now an ingrained habit as they continue to drink, smoke pot, and use drugs to accept the reality into which they were born. Trinity reads volumes in hopes of college, Sandrine is a drama queen, Mesha’s only sister is murdered, and Cali wishes she’d been born as Dr. Seuss’s offspring.  Their merry-go-round of life continually circles but gold rings are scarce as the world lies restless and hopeful as teens beg to differ with one another about their future.

“I am relatively new to writing, and in the first part of my career I made several mistakes. The biggest was attempting to do my own covers. When I found Karri I found the miracle my books needed. Within a week of switching to Karri’s covers my book sales had doubled. She is nothing short of amazing in both talent and persona. Everything she has sent me has been perfect. She has the ability to visualize exactly what I want and I will never consider working with another artist as long as I am writing. If you want to give your books the edge with beautiful art then I highly recommend Karri. I promise you won’t be disappointed.”

BLURB: Your world is invaded. Within weeks, your home, your job, and your ‘world’ have disappeared. The economy and government have collapsed. Huge populations are suddenly homeless, short of food, and forced to migrate. The whirlwind of cataclysm is here.

Government struggles, hanging by a thread, and faces an uncertain future. Power shifts. Strong men emerge. Warlords, roaming bandits, and armed insurrections thrive across America. Families struggle to survive in huge crowded military-style communal camps from coast to coast. Food, clothing, and winter cold are constant worries. New rigid authoritarian attitudes, a forced work ethic, and mistakes are heading toward revolution. Millions are placed on farms with only hand tools to grow their own food.  Housing is primitive with pioneering expedients. The McCandless family finds old skills are required, must be relearned, and new defenses are necessary to survive with few resources.

Economic collapse has forced sweeping confiscations of real and personal property. The United States, now a desperate and newly autocratic third-world style government, converts to a fully managed economy. Gigantic make-work salvage operations, radical social restructuring, and stringent military style law enforcement transforms people’s lives even in remote rural areas.

Government leadership has retained the confidence of a grateful surviving citizenry. The Constitutional is rewritten. An unplanned political campaign introduces Alec McCandless to the new centers of power.  His personal path to great power has begun in the changed political landscape. That path would eventually bring us all to tectonic political revolution and The New American Republic.
