Clare Stewart is no ordinary thirteen-year-old. Since an early age,
she has been trained in the psychic arts by her spirit guide, who
is also her deceased Aunt Miriam. Clare has a burning desire to
become a writer, and during the Christmas school holidays of her
thirteenth summer, she writes about her daily experiences and
childhood memories. Over a six-week period, Miriam helps Clare to
discover her past by dream travelling fifty thousand years back in
time to the lost continent of Atlantis. Miriam is also preparing
Clare for her future, when Clare will take her place in the world
as a gifted psychic, and a spiritual advisor who will assist those
in need of her supernormal abilities. Clare narrates her day-to-day
life down under, and relates many humorous and anecdotal tales
about colourful local characters and historical events. In
addition, Clare learns about intuition, other dimensions,
telepathy, and the meaning of dreams. For those interested in
discovering more about the adventures of this teenage clairvoyant
from the land down under, this book is one of the few resources
available for younger readers which seriously considers the deeper
aspects of the human psyche, as well as introducing the adult world
of paranormal research in the format of a juvenile fiction.

Nekrashevych (Texas A&M). Apart from the main speakers,
refereed survey and research articles were contributed by other

Johnny Donal, P.I., a retired cop, now with a successful
investigations agency, should be enjoying life in the SC
Lowcountry. He isn't. That he has a stellar reputation as an
investigator; that he has a source of independent wealth; that he
can pick and choose cases should, if anything, add to his good
life. None of it does. Instead, Donal is a troubled man. His lover
has left him and, worse, he's batting zero with his attempts to get
her back. He also has a new client with a strange attitude about
the circumstances surrounding her missing husband and Donal isn't
sure that he can trust the woman. Then a friend is murdered and
that case intertwines with Donal's missing husband case. Despite a
double dealing client, negative involvement with influential
locals, and political obstacles cluttering his investigation, the
question becomes can the P.I., who has problems of his own to
resolve, uncover the identity of the killer or killers and solve
the crimes?
In this fictionalized memoir, G. C. Smith "pulls back the covers"
on what goes on in offices and businesses she has known. In
amusing, incisive prose, she describes the various types that she
has come across during her working life. She has a satiric and
knowing eye when it comes to human nature. At the same time, she
delves deeper and sees the humanity and motives that cause people
to act the way they do. With a mixture of shock and delight, you
will no doubt recognize similarities to people you yourself have
encountered.-- Anthony Ambrogio, Editor
