Michael Donegal had it all - an enterprising career in the stock
market, a limited edition Ferrari and accolades from peers and
co-workers. Yet it all unfortunately disappears when a car accident
leaves him a quadriplegic. Five years later he's found suddenly
dead, from no apparent reason. Just another case of "death by
natural causes," or is it? It seems like a regular closed file
until insurance claims examiner Anthony "Tony" Jennings starts
poking around Donegal's file and starts finding unusual
inconsistencies. To Tony something doesn't add up. What's even more
unusual is that his boss refuses to let him handle this seemingly
routine file. Shortly afterwards a fellow co-worker is inexplicably
fired, another colleague - Tony's mentor and friend - ends up in
the hospital's intensive care unit, and now Tony suspects he's
being watched. The intrigue only intensifies when Tony accidentally
receives what looks like an inflated invoice on another deceased
insured's file. The only similarity between the two files is that
both insured's had the same medical payment coverage plan once
offered by the company, which is now no longer available. Now it's
up to Tony to unravel the mysteries behind the suspicious
occurrences and unexplained deaths, before he too becomes a victim
of an "accident." Will investigating these cases get him killed?
Could these files put his precious family at risk, especially his
little girl? Or should he play it safe and just leave well enough
alone? On One Accord is an exciting, spine-tingling conspiracy
thriller that abounds with suspense and surprising jolts in a
well-crafted mystery that keeps you on the edge of your seat.
What's the truth behind the sudden deaths of these insured's and
what's the connection with the insurance company? Get your copy of
On One Accord to find the answers and solve the mystery.

His mother was a BLM activist. Mason Tyndall was an aspiring rap
artist. She saw fatal officer-involved shootings as senseless
tragedies. He viewed them as trending hashtags — that is, until
he almost became one. Mason Zy’Aire Tyndall has big dreams.
Dreams of sick beats, epic mic-drops, sold out stadiums. Mason’s
going to be a rap star—and you don’t become a rap star by
hitting up BLM protests with your mom or sitting at a desk. Mason
wants to get out there and make a name for himself, but he’ll
have to graduate high school first. And he can’t do that if he
fails his senior year. Convinced his poetry class is a waste of
time, Mason’s sensitive teacher helps him see just how valuable a
couplet and a rhyme can be. But when an unarmed Black man is killed
by the police in his city, tensions start to rise—among the cops,
the community, and even Mason’s peers. Caught in the
middle of increasingly violent conflicts, Mason will have to find a
way to use his voice for change…and fast.
The Third coming of Arthur. The final volume in a rich and
evocative tale set in a mythic 15th century Britain, to rival the
work of Bernard Cornwell. As civil war tears the Realm apart, the
sorcerer Maskull's plans to bring about a catastrophe that will rob
the world of magic are coming to fruition. The wizard Gwydion knows
that the only hope for the future lies with Willand, the young man
he believes to be the reincarnation of King Arthur. But Will is
beset with doubts. He is being stalked by the Dark Child, the twin
from whom he was separated at birth and who now serves Maskull. And
as the magic gradually begins to fade from the world, the powers of
Gwydion, his mentor and friend, seem to be fading too, leading Will
to despair that the destruction of the war will ever be halted, or
Maskull ever defeated. Despite the seeming impossibility of his
task, Will is not ready to give up quite yet. With the help of his
strong-minded wife, Willow, and friends as wise and generous as the
loremasters Morann and Gort, Will journeys the Realm seeking his
destiny. And soon it becomes clear that only by solving the riddle
of his own identity can he save the world he loves so deeply.
A rich and evocative tale set in a mythic 15th century Britain, to
rival the work of Bernard Cornwell. In the peaceful village of
Nether Norton life goes on as it has for centuries in the Realm. On
Loaf Day, as the villagers celebrate gathering in the first of
their harvest, Will looks back fondly on the two years since he and
his sweetheart Willow circled the fire together, especially the
year since their daughter Bethe was born. But despite his good
fortune, a feeling of unease is stirring inside him. When he sees
an unnatural storm raging on the horizon he knows that his past is
coming back to haunt him. Four years ago Will succeeded in cracking
the Doomstone in the vault of the Chapter House at Verlamion to
bring a bloody battle to its end. It seemed then that the lust for
war in men's hearts had been calmed forever. But now Will is no
longer certain his success was quite so absolute, and he calls on
his old friend and mentor Gwydion, a wizard of deep knowledge and
power once called 'Merlyn', for advice. Gwydion suspects his old
enemy, the sorcerer Maskull, has escaped from the prison he was
banished to when Will cracked the Doomstone. Now Maskull is once
again working to hasten a devastating war between King Hal and Duke
Richard of Ebor, with the help of the battlestones that litter the
landscape inciting hatred in all who draw near. Only Will, whom
Gwydion believes to be an incarnation of King Arthur, has the skill
to break the power of the battlestones. When Will last left Nether
Norton he was an unworldly youth of thirteen. Now he is a husband
and father, he has a lot more to lose. But he has a whole Realm to
save.
A rich and evocative tale set in a mythic 15th century Britain, to
rival the work of Bernard Cornwell. The Realm is poised for war.
Its weak king - Hal, grandson of a usurper - is dominated by his
beautiful wife and her lover. Against them stands Duke Richard of
Ebor and his allies. The two sides are set on a bloody collision
course... Gwydion is watching over the Realm. He has walked the
land since before the time of the druids, since before the Slavers
came to subdue the people. Gwydion was here when Arthur rode to
war: then they called him 'Merlyn'. But for his young apprentice,
Willand, a fearsome lesson in the ways of men and power lies ahead.
The Realm is an England that is still-magical. Legendary beasts
still populate its by-ways. It is a land criss-crossed by lines of
power upon which standing stones have been set as a secret
protection against invasion. But the power of the array was broken
by the Slavers who laid straight roads across the land and built
walled cities of shattered stone. A thousand years have passed
since then, and those roads and walls have fallen into decay. The
dangerous stones are awakening, and their unruly influence is
calling men to battle. Unless Gwydion and Will can unearth them,
the Realm will be plunged into a disastrous civil war. But there
are many enemies ranged against them: men, monsters and a sorcerer
who is as powerful as Gwydion himself.
