Sonny and Ray, their friendship forged during the American involvement in the Nicaraguan Civil War of the 1970's, struggle to come to terms with the aftermath of that war and their memories of a woman one loved and the other murdered. The sudden appearance of a mysterious painting leads the two on an odyssey to uncover the truth about the woman's disappearance in the closing days of the war and their culpability in the tragedy. From a refugee camp in the Sudan to New Mexico, they search for the one person whose fate has haunted them for thirty years and whose destiny holds the key to their salvation. Joined by Harper, a photojournalist with a history and motives no less tangled, the puzzle lures them back to Central America, where they confront the consequences of their actions. The journey draws old allies and new deeper into a past filled with choices that cannot be undone and crimes that cannot be forgotten, and threatens to ruin the futures of those so desperate for the peace the war long ago destroyed.

Mystery

A grieving widow, an uninvited corpse, and a felonious Afghan hound who bears a grudge. . . Magnet Springs is a quiet little Michigan resort town enjoying leaf-peeping season, at least until a dead body turns up on a massage table and thirty-something realtor Whiskey Mattimoe finds one of her properties has become a murder scene. As her attempts to adjust to a new life as a widow are complicated by a kleptomaniac Afghan hound and her neglected eight-year-old neighbor, Chester, Whiskey becomes ensnared in a complex web of murder, identity fraud, dognapping, and art forgery. An unwitting sleuth in an unlikely scenario of mayhem, Whiskey must find a determined killer before the culprit drives property values in Magnet Springs down for good.

Whiskey on the Rocks

Just when she thought the past was behind her. . . It’s time for Magnet Springs’ annual ice fishing jamboree, but there’s something sinister afoot. Things begin going south as soon as Roy Vickers hits town. Not only did he try to kill Whiskey’s husband, Leo, nine years ago, but it now looks like Roy might have killed Magnet Springs’ missing self-aggrandizing mayor, Gill Gruen, Whiskey’s realtor nemesis. Then Chester, Abra and Prince Harry, Abra’s puppy, are kidnapped and newly deputized Whiskey, hot on their trail, finds herself up to her neck in the freezing waters of Lake Michigan after finding Gil’s corpse in a disserted ice shanty. Add in an ex-husband who shows up at all the wrong times trying to rekindle the sparks between them, the sexy, tempting father of her step-daughter’s twins, and the perverted male nurse imposter, and Whiskey’s life takes more twists and turns than a French braid. Helicopters, mixed up grandparents, murder, and the usual madcap mayhem abound as Whiskey searches for Chester and her dogs while accidently solving three murders.

Whiskey Straight Up

Dealing with the first anniversary of her husband's death would be much easier for Whiskey Mattimoe if the newly-crowned Miss Blossom wasn't scheduled to die on the very same day. It seems everybody in Magnet Springs knew about the not-so-secret curse of the Miss Blossom pageant except for Whiskey–full-time real estate agent, part-time sleuth, long-suffering owner of Abra, her willful and sometimes felonious Afghan hound, and reluctant guardian for the soon-be-deceased Miss Blossom. Any hope that Abra has reformed her purse-snatching ways is dashed when the dog disappears with the emerald-laden Miss Blossom tiara, a priceless--albeit horrendously ugly and gawdy--heirloom insured for more than Whiskey's net worth. Suddenly Whiskey finds herself tangled in a web of deceit and murder that spans centuries and involves her dearly departed husband, for better or worse. When the new Miss Blossom lands in the hospital and the former Miss Blossom turns up dead, Whiskey's got to catch a cold-blooded killer before another generation of Magnet Springs' royalty succumbs to a fate worse than wearing the Miss Blossom tiara.

While opportunity knocks at Whiskey’s door in the form of a sexy Scotsman with real estate agent potential, a charming karma-obsessed self-help author with dating potential, and Whiskey’s ex-husband, who possesses the potential to drive her out of her mind, mayhem abounds. When one of Whiskey’s tenants is found murdered on the shores of Lake Michigan and the children in the young woman’s charge disappear, it’s up to canine-challenged Whiskey to rescue Magnet Springs from a scandal unlike any other it’s ever known. Can Whiskey help the town discover the truth about Twyla Rendel's death and lay Gil Gruen to rest for good before it’s too late?

Whatever your complaint, The Emotional Yoga Experience will provide you with a step-by-step approach that can help you become free of your self-limiting problems once and for all. Instead of spending more hours on a therapist’s couch trying to rewire your brain, this book will show you that, when your mind can not help you get unstuck, your body can.Your body stores negative emotions and, because these feelings are retained in your body, trying to think away your negative thoughts will not work. So many times “talking cures” are ineffective because they rely on the mind to diagnose issues that exist beyond the scope of its understanding. The mind lies. The body doesn’t.  We too often trust our minds to heal us, when our bodies hold the keys to emotional freedom. So what does that mean?  It means that, armed with The Emotional Yoga Experience (EYE) techniques, you can use yoga to connect with your body and find stored negative emotions, then use the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) to release them and take your first steps to leading a more joyful, balanced life.
