Book Description
Deceptive Lies... A Young Man's Journey Towards Redemption By: Joyce D. Switalski, M.S. Maeve McCaffery, an Irish caregiver, was awarded estate money from a wealthy resident upon her death. While this could be life changing for her, she was instead miserable, as her client's estate planner referred a devious immigration specialist to Maeve's home care registry The specialist, Mat Turner needed money and decided to steal from Maeve's client spinning a web of deceptive lies. He insisted that Maeve comply with his request or he'll send her back to Ireland. He took more than money; he took Maeve's innocence and trust. Maeve had to flee her beloved Philadelphia, as she was carrying Mat's child...the child conceived without consent. After moving to Maine, Maeve thought that Mat could never find her. She convinced herself that she would never be his victim again. She was wrong. Maeve saw Mat's cunning behavior in her son, Nate. She decided her son would never know Mat's identity. Years later, Nate was told the truth; his entire life changed with that knowledge. After a heated argument with his mom, Nate was enraged and drove to Philadelphia. He wanted to find his dad. He needed his support, his love. Absorbed in intense thought, Nate didn't see the truck swerving in his direction. He felt the impact, the sound of broken glass and crushed metal. Days later, Nate awakes in a New York Trauma Hospital. Although the blaring sounds of intensive care were piercing, Nate welcomed the soft stream of opioid drugs flowing rapidly into his distressed body. Deceptive Lies... tells the story of a young man's journey towards truth and redemption.

Book Description
Set in Minnesota, Gone to Dust is the New York Times bestselling debut private eye murder mystery from Emmy Award-winning Seinfeld writer Matt Goldman. “Sharp wit, complex characters, and masterful plotting makes Goldman a writer to watch. Irreverent and insightful, private detective Nils Shapiro is sure to become a fan favorite.”—Harlan Coben, New York Times bestselling author A brutal crime. The ultimate cover-up. How do you solve a murder with no useable evidence? Private detective Nils Shapiro is focused on forgetting his ex-wife and keeping warm during another Minneapolis winter when a former colleague, neighboring Edina Police Detective Anders Ellegaard, calls with the impossible. Suburban divorcee Maggie Somerville was found murdered in her bedroom, her body covered with the dust from hundreds of emptied vacuum cleaner bags, all potential DNA evidence obscured by the calculating killer. Digging into Maggie’s cell phone records, Nils finds that the most frequently called number belongs to a mysterious young woman whose true identity could shatter the Somerville family--but could she be guilty of murder? After the FBI demands that Nils drop the case, Nils and Ellegaard are forced to take their investigation underground, where the case grows as murky as the contents of the vacuum cleaner bags. Is this a strange case of domestic violence or something with far reaching, sinister implications? “A perfect blend of light touch and dark story—I want more of Nils Shapiro.” —Lee Child, New York Times bestselling author At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Book Description
DescriptionEveryone is to some degree their own schizophrenic. Brendan feels it is his job in life as a committed schizophrenic to pass on his experiences in coping with this 'disease'. Brendan feels he has a lot to offer his readers because of his success in dealing with life's problems. This book is a mixture of autobiography and fantasy. Basically a 'send up' of UK psychiatry, Roman Catholicism and the mixed up world of human relationships that we all inhabit. The many characters appear under one name in one section but will then appear in another section as someone slightly different. Brendan deals with his characters in this way in order to present them as characters in their own right but also as fragments of his own self. Despite the serious subject matter of this book, there is much laughter. The book is an emotional roller-coaster, leaving the reader not knowing whether to be sad or happy - but always laughing.About the Author Brendan Reason is 54 and lives alone in Ipswich. Brendan has suffered from a form of schizophrenia since 1976 but has never let this prevent him from living life to the full. Since 1987 he has worked as a volunteer at the Ipswich Disabled Advice Bureau - giving advice and help to people who are disabled. He also regularly sings and plays guitar at the Bureau's AGM. Brendan has an Honours degree in Social Administration and a post-graduate certificate in Education. Brendan believes he was much happier as a student than he is in the world of work and because of his mental health problems the longest he has held down a paid job is two and a half years.Brendan has always written poetry and prose and, in the mid nineties, a small but well regarded publisher called 'Envoi Poets' published a book of his poetry called 'Fragments of Eve and Other Poetry'. Another of his creative interests has been amateur dramatics both as a budding actor and script writer. In 1987 The Wolsey Theatre in Ipswich performed several of Brendan's scenes and sketches in a lunchtime performance given over to local writing talent. Brendan says that he ""feels privileged that life has given me something to write about and that means so much to me.""
