The Beholder, A Maddie Richards Mystery
by David Bishop
She has an ex-husband she still cares for, but who was bad for her and her ten-year-old son. Her widowed mother who lives with her is both a blessing and a trial. And, oh yes, her ex-husband has married an extremely wealthy and politically connected woman who cannot give birth. So, Maddie’s ex is filing a motion to obtain permanent custody of their son, citing the risks attendant to Maddie’s police work endanger the boy.
If that were not enough, the brother-in-law of the chief of police is using his position as an administrative assistant to sexually harass Maddie. She could file a formal complaint, but the good-old-boys network in the department is watching how she handles the situation.
Further complicating Maddie’s life is two love interests: Gary Packard, a hunk who recently moved in across the street, and Lincoln Rogers, a confirmed bachelor, who lives thousands of miles away and works for the FBI.
As the case develops Maddie learns that the victims all wore the same bra size. She must decide if this is merely a coincidence or a criterion the killer uses when selecting his victims. She also finds that each of the victims is somehow connected to the Phoenix police department. This realization isolates her further as she must pursue the killer without disclosing this theory to her department because, if her suspicion is correct, the Beholder would learn she is closing in.
As the story races toward its climax, Maddie is betrayed by those closest to her, and she begins to believe her own name may be on the killer’s list.

Tracers (Timeline Series)
by Jerome Gilden
“My name is Jerry Daniels. I’m nineteen years old… well, sometimes I’m older or younger.”
“Two years ago my parents went missing. I tried local police, state police, FBI, private investigators, everyone I could think of. I kept getting the same response: ‘those people you’re looking for have never existed.'”
“I used to think I was a normal high school guy. It’s not easy for people around me to consider me normal when they think I’m a nut-job who created a set of ‘imaginary parents’… but I’m not crazy … I’m not.
“Yesterday, I graduated from high school; at least I think it was yesterday. I’ve been losing track of time lately. To tell you the truth, and I swear this is the truth, as crazy as it sounds … yesterday I went to the future and returned, and I’m really scared by what I’ve learned.”
“I’m no normal teen. I’m the last of the Royalty among a secret race of super-powered humans who are fighting among themselves. War is inevitable. It will affect everyone, even people
who don’t know there is a war going on … it will affect you!
“People either want to use me or kill me. For now I’m a Tracer, a guardian of time. My enemies know who I am and where to find me. ‘The Dead’ are coming, ‘la morte’, or Morters as they call themselves. They are former Tracers who sacrificed their immortality and the last of their humanity to gain inexplicable powers. They have chosen death as their destiny. They plan to take everything with them.”
“Tomorrow … ‘The Dead’ and I meet. Tomorrow … the winner of this war may be decided by what we do, what I do, in our first encounter.
Tomorrow… I will be tested. Tomorrow… I fight for our existence … and yours.”

Late in the summer of 2005, Jake Thornton is on the verge of turning 16. Expecting little more than his driver’s license in the fall, and the continuance of the simple lifestyle shared with his father at their quiet lakeside home, Jake isn’t exactly thrilled when 14-almost-15 year old Sara, a girl with a secret, moves in next door and begins vying for his father’s attention, complicating their otherwise peaceful lives.
As the summer fades and autumn takes over, a shaky friendship between the two teenagers begins blossoming into a bond, setting them both on their way toward discovering the simple yet life altering truth: that love—not the feeling but the action—is the most powerful force in the world.
