A young boy is found dying from an overdose of his brother's drugs and later a policeman sees his brother running out through the back gate of his home with his father's gun in his hand. When he returns later without the gun and his friend and drug supplier is later found shot twice with the gun lying beside him, the brother would seem the likely suspect for the murder. However the case seems too neat and some things do not add up, so Sergeant Bob White starts checking.
BR>B>FONT size=4>CHAPTER 1BR>BR>Return from WarBR>/B>/FONT>BR>Bob White was the eldest of three children in his family and grew up in a pleasant working class district of Portsmouth, New Hampshire. He was a quiet, confident, good-looking kid with dark hair and light grey eyes. Even from his earliest days he was very observant and always seemed to be aware of everyone around him and what was going on. Considerate of everyone he met, he never failed to acknowledge anyone’s presence, and everyone seemed at ease in his company. Bob had a family for which everything seemed to go right and | |  | | I See You in My Dreams.
Jim and Cathy Ferguson were each other’s first and only love. They were very young when they first met, neither had ever even dated anyone else and from that time only had eyes for each other. Graduation from university seems a long way off as they struggle with their love and need for each other while trying to be good against a backdrop of Jim’s religious parents and Cathy’s over protective father. Every young girl should have a mother like Cathy, her best friend and confidant, who helps her with advice and encouragement and when things get rough her not-to-be-denied support. When they finally do get married and their young daughter Ann is born, they seem to have a lifetime of happiness ahead of them. Jim’s job, however, requires him to travel and while rushing home to his hotel one bitterly cold night Jim Ferguson spots a lone, young and pregnant lady of the night, on a street where there are normally several such ladies. She is shivering uncontrollably, but Jim lacks the courage to stop. He feels guilty and tells his wife Cathy during his nightly call to her and their young daughter. With Cathy’s prompting and encouragement and the help of a pastor and a police sergeant, he attempts to help the young girl to escape from the cruel man who controls her. The pimp and one of his cronies with tragic consequences pursue them. Cathy has strong visions in two dreams of what has happened to Jim, she believes he is still alive, but as she confides to a close friend, she is uncertain if that is because he really is alive or that the bond of their love is just taking a long time to die. Without knowing what has really happened to Jim, and only able to share his love in her dreams, Cathy, through many nightmarish days, has other dreams of Jim, as she and her mother refuse to accept what everyone is trying to prepare them for.
Meanwhile the pastor and the police sergeant refuse to give up their search for what has happened. Although they have strong suspicions the pimp has been involved in the disappearance of Jim and the young girl, they have no proof and for a while seem to be stymied. Armed only with his suspicion, the evidence of an Emergency Hospital Attendant and Cathy’s vision Sergeant Bob White with the help of a Highway Patrol Inspector sets out to find the body of the young girl, whom he believes has been murdered. When he also finds the car she and Jim were driving, he finds other grizzly details which lead to several details of police incompetence in the area where the crime was committed, but finally brings the pimp and his crony to justice.

P align=justify>BR>BR>The heavier rain had stopped about an hour ago, but the road being still damp from a light but steady drizzle reflected back the headlights, making it difficult to see the lane markings. On each side land and sky were indistinguishable in one massive sea of black as the low dark clouds floating along on the moderately stiff breeze blocked out any light from the moon or stars, and just looking out at it was enough to make one shiver and want to pull their coat or whatever covering they had closer around their body. | | | | My Shorts
