She thought she'd found love. What she uncovered was a slow, suffocating prison. In the haze of the 1970s, Josie is young, hopeful, and eager to build a future. When she meets Dave, his charm is disarming, his attention flattering. But what begins as affection soon curdles into control. Isolated from friends, broken down by manipulation, Josie struggles to reconcile the man she fell for with the one who now cages her spirit. Each time she tries to escape, Dave reappears-repentant, generous, familiar. But kindness is only the bait. The cycle repeats, leaving Josie doubting her sanity, her strength, and even her worth. Set against a backdrop where women's silence was often mistaken for consent, this intimate, emotionally charged novel follows Josie's long road to freedom. As she rebuilds her life for her and her two children, carving out a future through education and sheer will, she discovers what it means to reclaim identity and agency. Raw, haunting, and ultimately hopeful, A Decade with Dave is a powerful exploration of coercive control, survival, and the quiet revolution of self-empowerment. This is a must-read for anyone who has wondered about the why and how of an abusive relationship. Most importantly, how to get out of it. Ms. Graham writes with passion and weaves a story that is both compelling and heartbreaking. Find out the happy ending to her complex relationship. It's definitely worth the read

A Morning for Flamingos is a classic Dave Robicheaux Louisiana mystery by New York Times bestselling author James Lee Burke. Desperately holding together the pieces of his shattered life, Cajun detective Dave Robicheaux has rejoined the New Iberia police force. While transporting two death-row prisoners, Dave is wounded, his partner is killed. Now he's trailing a killer into the heart of the Big Easy's underworld.Embroiled in a world of drug dealers, prostitutes, and double-crosses, Robicheaux is forced to confront his most dangerous enemy: himself. Absorbing and masterfully executed, A Morning for Flamingos is one of Edgar Award-winning author James Lee Burke's most enduring southern crime novels.
When he created the character Dave Robicheaux, author James Lee Burke lent the New Orleans homicide detective a few of his own characteristics: a daughter named Alafair, a lifetime struggle with alcohol, his Roman Catholic faith, and his love for fishing and the outdoors. On the other hand, Robicheaux is portrayed as a veteran of the Vietnam war, something Burke never experienced firsthand. Yet the demons Burke has known allow him to write convincingly about demons he never knew. Thus Burke has created a realistic, complex and compelling protagonist for his crime fiction series. That depth is one element that elevates Burke's writing above the status of genre fiction. This book explores how James Lee Burke, through the first person narrative of detective Dave Robicheaux, probes the world of law and order, crime and disorder, and one man's internal conflicts with modern moral issues. The first chapter reveals the similarities and differences between real life creator and fictional protagonist. Next, chapters arranged by theme explore the roles of women, Robicheaux's paternal side as revealed through his adopted daughter, the paternal influences in the detective's own life, and the contrasting personality of his half-brother, Jimmie. The next chapters probe the roots of the detective's moral dilemmas: his battle with alcohol, the Vietnam war's lingering trauma, and religion. Next the author explores Burke's use of the supernatural, sense of place, and music to deepen his stories. Final chapters delve into Robicheaux's moral quandaries as a law enforcement officer, the character's contrast to his reckless and funny partner, Clete, and how Burke reveals truths about life through Robicheaux. An interview with Burke is included.

She's gone on to find great joy in serving Alaska's Native people. She loves them as much as Dave. She is courageous in adversity, knows how to live with hardship, and shares Dave's trust in a God who can do anything. Dave and Vera join forces to make the vision for Kako reality and begin a life of high adventure, hard work, and great faith. This is their story and that of many others who also labor to bring God's good news to some of the most needy Native Americans in the United States.
