Justice Delayed
Kate Meredith was about to witness a post mortem on a mutilated body found in strange circumstances. Not her favourite part of the job as a detective sergeant, but it had to be done. The dead man's past uncovered an historic abuse case involving vulnerable boys at a children's home. Something unspeakable had been happening and Kate was about to uncover the sordid and sinister details. A child had been molested and died but the lack of evidence, and a less than convincing coroner's report, urged them into reopening the case. Investigations took them to France and the search for a priest who was the chief suspect. When other victims came forward years later to corroborate the story, they were able to finally bring to justice the criminals involved. But the priest wasn't the only abuser and the secrets revealed by an old computer helped uncover the final sinister story to get the evil perpetrators prosecuted.

The Ghost in the Garden
12 year old Jo Keaton hopes to save her 100 year old home from demolition by the University in her small town in deep southern Illinois. There are only 5 days left as Jo explores the attic and discovers an ancient trunk and a letter hidden in its lining. During a violent thunderstorm, she reads of a ghost seen haunting the rose garden. This mystery galvanizes her to search for a connection to the Underground Railroad, and leads her to learn the horrors of slavery and the dangers of life in a border state during the 1800s and the Civil War. Jo is impulsive and impetuous but changes dramatically as she realizes there is a cause greater than herself in her journey to solve the mystery of the ghost and save her home.
