Public schools and colleges typically give you a "progressive" slant on life. This book provides another view. Even for those who had the advantage of a father, it was often a father in name only. In fact, most have not had a "traditional" daddy in the pre-21st Century sense. Or perhaps better yet, a WWII or pre-Woodstock era role model.

Riverfront Dreams, Ken and Rayna Piccard retire to central Florida to live out their lives in a luxurious housing development-'God's waiting room.' The dream becomes a nightmare of alligators, pirate treasure, shoddy workmanship, their homeowners' association and The Gasparilla.

"Grave Creek Conspiracy" is the sequel to Morris' first book "Grave Creek Connections," a mystery set in the tri-county region of Greene/Washington County, in Pennsylvania, and in Marshall County, West Virginia.

But it leaves the reader with enough mystery to stir his/her imagination and perhaps, a Grave Creek franchise.

When a sheriff's deputy is brutally murdered, fellow deputy Margaret Donovan-his lover-now finds herself questioning every choice she has made as her life spins out of control. Margaret, the daughter of a well-respected Sheriff, struggles to find meaning in life and falls back on the faith she was raised in. A friendship develops between her and a nun from the local convent that reawakens that faith. In time, she hands in her badge and gun and takes the veil. When she is about to make her final profession, two students at Saint Dominic's High School are murdered. Her old boss the Sheriff asks her to work with him to solve the killings. Margaret soon discovers a link between the two recent killings and the murder of another Saint Dominic's student that has gone unsolved for more than thirty years. She also learns that there may have been an effort to cover up that old killing to protect some very influential people. She suspects that someone has returned to even the score. But who? As she works to find a killer before he strikes again, she also struggles with herself as her decision about a final profession to the religious life draws near. There are two big problems. There is another child out there who is on the killer's hit list, but they don't know who he or she is. And the detective Margaret is working with, Bill Templeton, is falling in love with her. Margaret soon realizes that she is beginning to fall in love with him. This fast-paced novel has little in common with other so-called clerical mysteries because the protagonist, Sister Margaret, is a complex woman who makes bad choices more often then she would like. Her desperate attempt to solve the murders of two of her students is as much a spiritual journey as it is a mystery. Only God knows where it will all end, and it is Margaret's faith and ultimately her love that will allow her to make it through.

The ninth circle of Dante's hell is where we find those who have betrayed a special relationship-such as the one between priest and child. It is this spiritual pit we encounter "Along the River Road." Sister Margaret Donovan, a former sheriff's deputy, has turned in her gun and badge to take the veil. She works as parish administrator for a small congregation in rural southern Illinois. The idyllic assignment turns dark when an elderly priest is assigned to say mass on Sundays. Some in the church recognize him. A suicide in the parish alerts Margaret that there is something awry, but she gets no help from her diocese: they claim not to know a thing. Margaret's cop instincts kick into high gear, and she soon encounters dark secrets buried in the past, a bureaucracy that doesn't cough up secrets easily, and a link to a hideous murder-suicide that occurred forty years earlier. Sister Margaret isn't like any nun you have ever know. She is a flawed individual who struggles to maintain her vocation in a world where faith has gone by the wayside. Her struggle with criminality mirrors her own struggle with sin and redemption.

1906 was a different time and cooking wasn't nearly as simple. Prepared food and even cooking and baking products were made at home. This book allows readers to return to that (simpler?) time when cooking began with building a fire in the stove.
