Eternal Sin - The L.A. Story

Beschreibung

It was a day like any other. James got up, made coffee, then retrieved the mail. Placing the day's stack of bills, sales catalogs, and the like on the counter, James sat on the stool, one arm bracing himself at the counter. He sipped his coffee, blowing it just a bit to cool it down. In front of him, an envelope taunted him, seemingly pulsing. Inside, its contents awaiting to change his world, if it didn't end it first. James did not know it yet, but in that early afternoon hour, he was now part of the 2%.*** The Murders in the Rue Morgue to A Tangled Web: A Cyberstalker, a Deadly Obsession, and the Twisting Path to Justice. From the past to the present, Poe to Rule, comes this tangled web of disbelief. The reader will find themselves in the protagonist's shoes soon enough wondering if they'll be next. Should they get their mail? Should they answer the knock at their door? What entity is on the other end of that knock? A tale in which the book holder's own life could intertwine and be forever changed. Are you brave enough to stand up to the unknown?*** Excerpt: Within the black and white photos of the shoe box, I see my dad. Tall, skinny, always with a big grin. He had a kind heart, liked to have a few beers, and enjoyed his Marlboro reds, just like I had years ago. You could say I was taking on the family tradition of drinking and smoking, at least until I had problems breathing. Drinking continued for a few more years after the cigarettes became history. I thought of my dad a lot more these days. More than I had before my life went to hell. Every night, just before my eyes closed in sleep, I would hope to be with him, where-ever he was.***

Autor

Outside of writing books, I enjoy gardening, working on the lawn, playing alto and tenor saxophone, EWI and American Indian flutes, dabbling in macro photography, restoring/repairing old photos, working on old motorcycles, reading, working on Alicia's and my home, cooking and canning. PHEW! When it's not snowing and the salt is off the roads, Alicia and I enjoy riding motorcycle up in the Great Northern parts of Wisconsin, Minnesota and Michigan. ¿When able, we travel to as many destinations as time allows covering other parts of Wisconsin, as well as other states. My writing roots: I began writing on a Brother typewriter back when I was in second grade. I still remember that manual keyboard and the real neat blue color of it's case. My very first story was about Tommy Turtle and Sammy Snake. It didn't get past the walls of the apartment I grew up in. Back then I attempted a school newspaper for my class. (It didn't go over too well. :) ) I had an outdoor column in the high school paper, that did a little bit better. As I got older, writing took a back page to other things in life, but then I got into riding motorcycles. That's when an offer came about to write for a multi-state motorcycle magazine. I did that for two years then left that to pursue writing short stories and full length books. I've been told that my style is reminiscent of Samuel Clemens -aka Mark Twain-, Edgar Allan Poe, Will Rogers and the poet John Keats.
