Fireflies
Dr. Owen Whelan and his wife Sarah have seven bright and expressive children. However, one of them is very unique; he’s been followed since birth by lost souls.
However peculiar Ennis Whelan has been for the first six years of his life, not until the day he found the bird did the degree of his strangeness become so tangible.
Ennis claimed it flew away.
His sister Teagan was about to bury it.
Teagan becomes increasingly suspicious of his odd behavior but their mother dismisses her claims; that is until he starts healing people.
When he also reveals the gift of sight, he questions his father about visions of his past, including his voyage to America in 1844. Owen prayed he’d never have to share those tragic memories but he will share them, when he realizes he has no choice. Ennis’ life depends on it.

Nothing Left Sacred
A nail-biting epic of greed, revenge and political corruption.In 1525 England’s King Henry VIII was outraged when Pope Clement VII refused to grant him a divorce from his wife of 18 years, Katherine of Aragon. The result of Henry’s fury was a decade-long war against the church and his own people which led to the destruction of England’s entire religious structure and claimed the lives of 150,000 English men and women.A must read for all lovers of history and mystery.Nothing Left Sacred carries the reader from the pomp and splendor of Henry VII’s glittering and corrupt royal court to the seldom-glimpsed resistance network created by the common people and the monastic community who defied Henry's greed and lust for power. The struggle between these opposing forces takes the reader on a twisting, panic-filled journey of dark political paranoia not found in an historical novel since Umberto Ecco's 'The Name of the Rose'.As conspiratorial as The DaVinci code and as taught as a John Grisham thriller.
