There are bad cops, then there are BAD cops.
When one of the good ones receives a call alerting him to a deal going down on a major case he’s working, he has no choice but to follow up on it.
Standing in a darkened alley across from a bar, they watch the seedy bar across the street. When he decides it’s now or never, he and his partner step out with their weapons drawn and advance on the building. His instincts tell him that this could be a setup. But little he know that it is and it has been set by one of his own, a brother cop.
Matt Murphy stood beside the hospital bed looking down at his best friend. He had been shot and was now fighting for his life. Murphy knew that this might happen one day, it came with the job, but he still wasn’t completely ready for the reality of it. As he stood there he vowed to find the one responsible and realized that for the first time in his life he wanted to kill someone.

The Long Sleep by Caroline Crane
Hoping to make friends at her new school, Maddie joins the newspaper staff. Its charismatic editor, Hank Dalbeck, plans a controversial series on the right to die. This causes so much discussion at their weekly meeting that Hank misses his bus home and accepts a ride with Maddie. Before they can leave the parking lot, someone fires a shot through the windshield.
Now Hank himself is in a coma, like the people he wanted to write about. Who put him there? Was it someone violently opposed to his ideas?
Maddie suspects Evan Steffers, her jealous and possessive ex-boyfriend, who is supposed to be out of state. Nevertheless, he’s been stalking her, sending flowers, messages, and threats. He’s everywhere and nowhere, and her life is in danger. Even attractive police officer Rick Falco can’t protect her from an unseen menace.
Maddie decides to carry on with the work that got Hank shot. Digging though old news clippings, she begins to understand the truth.
But it comes too late.
Reading those books got my own imagination running rampant. Time travel, Scotland, romance, adventure, mystery. Her books have everything and they encouraged me to try my hand at writing. That’s how Highland Eyes: Spellbinder came about.
