Book Description
Corrosive greed, public corruption, and environmental degradation intertwine in small, historic Ellicott City, on the Patapsco River that feeds into the Chesapeake Bay. Jack Tasker is a typical thirteen-year-old, save for being the nephew of a not so typical uncle, Ben Tasker, a loving surrogate dad though an irascible newspaper man. When the skeletal remains of a young girl, over a century old, surface at the reportedly haunted Patapsco Female Institute, the police are compelled to search the grounds for more bodies. Surprisingly, they find a newly murdered John Doe. Immediately Ben and Jack are also on the case. While the two pursue clues on the Institute grounds, an apparition surreptitiously leads them to discover a backpack in the hollow of a tree. Ben and Jack realize they have opened a Pandora’s box that could jeopardize forever the health and well-being of millions who rely on the Chesapeake watershed.

Book Description
Andie is an investigative journalist working at the only remaining mainstream news organization with recognized credibility in the U.S. A colleague is tragically killed while covering the war in the Middle East. Around the same time, Andie begins to receive mysterious calls-addressing her by name, asking for help-from a person seemingly trapped and unknown to her. As she begins her research for a front-page, above-the-fold tribute to her late colleague, Andie learns that she was investigating strategic destruction beyond the immediate purposes of the conflict. It is now up to Andie to carry on her colleague’s work, exposing those responsible for waging war on an entire population...of color. But it’s not going to be easy. As her own news organization begins to morph, and her safety is threatened by rogue agents, Andie is forced to endanger herself and others in a race to prevent an international catastrophe.

Book Description
Finally, two humanitarian scientists, Drs. Maggie James and Jangbu Tong, have developed the fountain of youth by slightly altering and augmenting a plant growing naturally in northeast Nepal. The properties in the plant have the potential to prevent diseases, even those caused by deadly viruses, improve the quality of life for the sick, and turn back the clock for the elderly. It’s a win, win . . . Or is it? As news of the miracle plant is leaked by an enthusiastic Peace Corps volunteer, envy, greed, and power take over, by way of a merchant herbalist, politicians, bankers, and their lobbyists. As these interests collide, the United States and China are pitted against each other, and both must face Nepali Gurkhas, provoking an international incident that will decide whether a health miracle will be available to all, or sold for record profits.
