The Black Crusade
SECOND EDITION 3/26/2026In the winter of early 1945, a young lady fled Krakow, Poland, to escape the fate of millions of women who fell prey to the advancing Red Army of the Soviet Union. Three decades later, she would face that enemy again, only this time, her enemy (and head of a KGB operation) was hiding behind the black uniform of the most intellectual order of the Catholic Church, the Society of Jesus. His weapon of attack: Liberation Theology; her weapon of defense: the Scripture she had learned in a Paris convent.With Liberation Theology, the Jesuits had the 'alt-Gospel' they needed to justify armed struggle against poverty wherever it existed. But its selective application both ignored the institutionalized poverty of Africa and Asia and embraced the dictator-imposed poverty of Cuba. Such hypocrisy created the allies that the nun needed to prevail in this religious battlefield: a Polish Pope, a disillusioned young Jesuit, and a Salvadoran officer who had graduated from the U.S. Military Academy at West Point.The Black Crusade is fiction based on historical fact that takes the reader from mid-20th Century Europe to the last battle of the Cold War in El Salvador, Central America the week after the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989.

Beyond the suspense of the countdown, the novel explores the persistence of memory in the digital age and the weight of remorse. It is a work about resilience, driven by nuanced characters: Matthieu, the cop worn down by compromise; Nina, the idealistic hacker; and the ghost of ?tienne, an omniscient presence who guides and judges the living.As much a thriller of memory as it is a thriller of action, Ghost combines procedural precision, political tension and intimate emotion.

Super easy read that will keep you reading and waiting for what will come next!" - J.R.Editorial Review by S. Peters DavisBook number 13 in the Pine County Mystery Series drew me along until the very end, including the Epilogue.

Illusory
'It all starts with a fiery night of bullets and car crashes leading to five people dead - two local traffic enforcers, the mayor's son and two bodyguards. Andor, a senior traffic enforcer, is the only surviving witness of this highway mayhem and murder. This bleak moment happened so fast that he is only sure of one thing, the assailant had a mermaid tattoo inked on his forearm. The veteran enforcer is now entangled with the queries of the police and the mayor's cohorts. Unbeknownst to them, Andor has his own way of dealing with this kind of problem, just like the way he used to do when he was still young and living a more dangerous life. But it might be more important to ask how deep Andor really is in this enigma especially because he just recently mentored 3 new recruits all having the same mermaid tattoo and 2 of these recruits are now lifeless. This is more than a car crash but an elaborate plan stemming from the world of politics and organized crime.
