He fought for his country. Now he’s home and engaged in the deadliest of battles… The Patriot Oath by Lloyd Lofthouse
He fought for his country. Now he’s home and engaged in the deadliest of battles… The Patriot Oath by Lloyd Lofthouse
Frederick is a demon living life to the fullest…except, it’s other people’s lives.
Frederick is a demon. Born in Maryland in the early 1980’s, he hasn’t a clue where he came from or why, but feels an irresistible desire to occupy a human body. Once inside, he finds the previous occupants’ consciousness and memories forever erased, an inevitable side effect that gives Frederick pause when switching bodies, but not so much as to truly halt his ongoing enjoyment of human lives. In various bodies, he travels the world for decades–aimless–sampling cultures and experiencing life from the points of view of males, females, young, old, rich, poor.
Now, Frederick has an urge to return to his roots in America, explore the mystery of his origin, find someone to love, and settle down for a while. In his hometown, his mission bears fruit much faster than he expected, as person after person presents themselves, and following his impulses, he is lead directly to love, tragedy, answers, and the humanity he never knew he wanted.

Hailed as “…the next Michael Crichton,” no one was expecting Bestselling new author Michael Siemsen (The Dig – 2011, The Opal – 2012) to swing a left turn like Frederick. With little-to-no fanfare or announcements, Siemsen quietly released A Warm Place to Call Home (a demon’s story) in 2013, surprising fans and drawing in a horde of new readers. Overwhelmingly, his best received and best reviewed tale yet, Frederick has readers “…actually cheering on a f***ing demon.”

5 Star Amazon Reviews
“I loved this book. It really took me by surprise. I don’t want to say more because I don’t want to give anything away but it is one of those books that you want to keep reading to see what happens and before you know it it’s 3am. I would definitely recommend it and hope there is a sequel.”
“Bravo – Wow! This was an incredible book. Most people don’t delve as deep into themselves as Frederick does and we all should check ourselves every once in awhile. It was a brilliantly told story that made me think and most importantly, feel. I’m looking forward to many years of reading Michael Siemsen’s work.”

Matt Turner grew up witnessing first-hand the worst crimes imaginable. At age 9, he discovered his special ability to “read” the emotional imprints people leave on objects. Against better judgment, his police detective father used his son’s talent to help him solve crimes. Now, at 26, Matt tries to keep to himself, but an enemy he thought long gone interrupts his tropical vacation, flying him all over the globe to help track a 3500-year-old Egyptian opal found sealed in a Cuban tree trunk. In Cuba, Matt finds not riches but even deadlier foes, and the secrets of a long-dead explorer who will forever alter Matt’s life.

5-Star Reviews From Amazon Readers:
“Michael Siemsen scores again with this new sequel to “The Dig”. It continues the story of Matt Turner, a man who has the ability to see into the past through touching objects. He only sees the past of that object though, not anything he wants. This book was a joy to read. I had been logging onto Amazon.com every day for a week now waiting for it to be released, and when I saw it up I finished it in just a few hours. I just hope Mr. Siemsen decides to continue the series (it would be a shame if he didn’t).”
“There were several times when I was reading that I found myself gripping my Kindle extra tight in anticipation. I had to stop for a minute and tell myself that it was just a book. But it’s not – it’s so much more.”
“I found this book interesting, entertaining and with good character development. Hopefully there will be more in this story line.”
