The psychological experience of identity loss can be traumatic. If it happens, a person might end up landing in a mental hospital. There is another, even more terrifying, type of crisis associated with identity; frightfully, it lurks around the corner for every living human being. In this dreadful scenario, the horror is that not only people, but also entities like corporations and official agencies, cease to exist. It happened when the network knitting the whole of humanity together began to crumble. What nobody understands, except for a very select few, is that the chaos is purposeful. It is intended to benevolently coax man in a life-saving direction. Who is the culprit, and why would this evil force choose to communicate with only one nine-year old boy suffering a neurological impairment due to a recent severe brain injury? Nobody knows the answer to that question. However, the future of planet earth as a habitable space for man rests on this young child's shoulders-but nobody believes a word he says.

Benny Wright reasoned that the most critical number was one. It only took one tragic event or one losing ticket at the racetrack to sack a human's will to live. What he didn't know at the time that he had this brilliant insight was that he would have two life-altering events in rapid succession, neither of which he could have seen coming. The man was an artist, musical composer, lyricist and performer. His mission in life was to provide a better lifestyle for the people he loved most, his wife and two children. Yet after repeated setbacks, he concludes that he's failed them. Now he concocts what most would consider an ill-conceived plan to save his family. Desperation is not a friend to love and devotion. If Benny is going to prove that where hope ends, the triumph of the spirit begins, a companion might be just what the doctor orders.

BASEBALL MUSIC ROMANCE Skyler Mills is recognized in college as a mathematics whiz and a true genius. Yet when it comes to sports, she doesn't know the difference between a touchdown and a home run She's the last choice that a sane Major League Baseball owner would hire as their GM. Yet when a fortuitous event lands her in that precise role, this five-foot-two inch dynamo sets out to turn the game of baseball on its head. She has two partners: one a neuroscience freak and the other a musical composer; neither care a wit about the game or the franchise. So can she succeed when the team is a mess, there's little money to fix it, and she's reviled by most all of the players and execs in the male-dominated world of baseball? It would take a miracle. Yet even when the unexpected happens, and it appears she might prove victorious, her secret weapon is stolen by the owner's nemesis, a guy named Thorne. Using the discovery to turn the tables on her, it's time to declare war. This little lady proves to be a street fighter, the type not to be mistaken as fragile.

Right here at home, in America, brutal fights to the death are being staged. These encounters captivate a nation, and beyond, and finally culminate in a television extravaganza with a viewership twenty times greater than on Super Bowl Sunday-yes indeed, the world was tuned in. For months, the news had been reporting, and police departments had been investigating, epic battles between what had been labeled "impersonator killers." People were assuming the identities of famous outlaws from American history-like Capone, Dillinger, Billy The Kid and Butch Cassidy. Then, as if entered in a single-elimination tennis tournament, they engaged in mortal combat in order to move to the next round. Was somebody orchestrating this flabbergasting contest? If so, where were the actors coming from, and what was the prize for prevailing to the end of the circus? Stanley Gleason, the wealthiest man in the world, knew the answer. His young sidekick, Jason Walters, might have spilled the beans on this baffling case but alas his lips were sealed. In the end, there would be one man standing. Ironically, he was the only one that had anything to lose.

CONTROVERSIAL BOLD COMPELLING A Story Exploring Both Sides of Fate Free-lance writer Zach Miller doesn't mind going the extra mile for a good story, but 7,500 miles is a bit more than he bargained for. Nevertheless, when his closest friend fortuitously points the way to Israel, reluctantly he goes. In the caldron of intrigue, politics, and terrorism that is the modern Middle East, Zach uncovers a plot-one that potentially threatens the lives of perhaps millions. His problem? There are two sides to every coin, and at least two sides in every war. But in this kind of conflict, information is a commodity, and misinformation, a weapon. Zach might be the unexpected emissary, the man with an answer, but sadly, neither side trusts him. Worse still, both sides will do anything in their power to stop him. Far from home, in a strange and at times incomprehensible land, Zach has no resources other than his own ingenuity...and a desire to be on the side of truth. That might be too tall an order in an encounter where both combatants are dead certain that there is only one truth: theirs. Mistaken Enemy, the first of the Zach Miller Stories, is a heart-racing account of hate, revenge and destiny, ultimately testing the boundaries of human love and will.
