In the aftermath of having survived an encounter with pedophile serial killer Uriah Beek almost three years earlier, two still healing couples reconnect at Christmas time in the small Oregon coast city of Cutter Point. Kevin Kearnes, the city's former police chief, now a special agent with Homeland Security, is returning to Cutter Point with Britt McGraw and his two young sons to marry Britt on the same beach where he first kissed her. Thud Compton, Kearnes' old sergeant, and now Cutter Point's new chief, has invited them to stay at the Compton home. However, the Kearnes' are not the only ones traveling to Cutter Point for the holidays. Some very bad men are coming to town and instead of bearing gifts; they are planning on taking one for themselves, an old military sword from WWII rusting away inside its display case in the local library which after 9/11 is now worth a million dollars on the world black market for war artifacts. Russian mobsters "Little Nikki" Kravchenko and Vlasi Voronov will happily accept half that much in payment from Phillip Peeters, the man who has hired them to steal it, but to college student Darius Ono, who has already failed at one attempt to take it, the sword is priceless and reclaiming it will restore honor to the name of his dead great uncle "The Emperor's Sparrow." Although they don't yet know it, Kevin Kearnes and Thud Compton are about to face their greatest threat ever when they are forced to pursue the murderous men who have stolen "The Sparrow's Blade."  The Sparrow's Blade is a 2012 Eric Hoffer Award winner for Commercial Fiction!

Mystery, Thriller & Suspense

Mystery

After six long years of political genocide carried out against the American people by the administration of President Benjamin Franklin Luder, the nation is stunned when Luder announces that he is issuing an executive order to suspend the next presidential election for "the good of the country," giving him an unprecedented, and unconstitutional, third term as president. Luder has slowly, and systematically, robbed the citizens of various liberties and freedoms through similar acts, and in the process, he has nearly destroyed the once greatest country on earth. However, his environmental policy of "green communism" has done the most damage of all, resulting in a nationwide energy slowdown which has crippled every level of industry. It now costs the average American eleven dollars for every gallon of gasoline they put in their tanks, and in winter, the elderly freeze like cordwood in their unheated homes because they cannot afford heating oil. Like any clever Svengali, Luder does not suffer from a lack of visionary delusions. Idaho's unspoiled Sawtooth Mountain Range is rich in thorium, a much safer, and cleaner alternative to the uranium currently used in the few nuclear power plants in the country that still exist. It is said that one thorium mine in particular, located near the small mining town of Ransom, Idaho contains enough energy to power every city in the United States for the next five hundred years. However, the mine is on private property, and surrounded by federal lands. Sean Brennan, a special agent with the newly formed United States Secret Police, sends Assistant U.S. Attorney Haley Hendricks to Ransom, posing as an eco-journalist. Haley is assigned to find a way for the government to seize the thorium mine in the name of "national security," and Brennan's orders are to design a plan to get the president to the mine for a photo op, and then safely back to the White House. Sean and Haley were once engaged, but after Haley was diagnosed with breast cancer, Sean broke things off. Since that time, Haley has dreamed of escaping, forever, the sewer called Washington D.C. On her first afternoon in Ransom, Haley locates Jace Fuller, the man she has been directed by Sean Brennan to hire to guide her to the mine. From the first moment she lays eyes on him, Jace takes her breath away. But Haley soon learns that Jace's former wife, Annie, has been dead for several years now, and that his eleven-year-old son, Josh, is for some unknown reason being raised by his grandparents, instead of Jace. As Jace Fuller unwittingly prepares to lead the most powerful man in the world, deep into the rugged Sawtooth Wilderness of Idaho, an unseen and sinister trap begins to unfold. Soon, Jace Fuller will be forced to make the choice between saving his country, or saving the life of his son, choosing who will live, and who must die. Including himself.
