Plagued by a miscarriage, a failed marriage to an abusive husband, and the guilt of having left her only son behind, she travels cross country.

Why does Jennifer Thompson carry a loaded .38 caliber Smith and Wesson in her briefcase?
Emotionally and psychologically crushed by recent personal events, Jennifer's only release is her frequent trips to the firing range. Sadly, her relief is short lived. As the next five days unfold, she imagines that the weapon taunts her to take action. Haunted by the persistent voice of the pistol, her mind further unravels, leaving her with only one solution . . . | |  | | Soaring Eagle, Spirit of the Wind
Soaring Eagle, Spirit of the Wind is the telling of two quests.
Rosalie, a self-destructive woman, is summoned into the spirit world and persuaded to embark upon her own quest of discovery. Along the way she must develop the will to battle the greatest of all foes, herself, a battle she is destined to lose if not for the aid of the shaman, Soaring Eagle.
Soaring Eagle, engaged in an endless quest to serve his people, sees Rosalie’s plight in a vision, and propels himself into the spirit world to retrieve her soul.
The plot is designed around three shamanic journeys that have been adapted from the author's personal experiences. Written in a style devised to keep pace with the shaman’s drum, the story is composed at a conceptual level difficult to achieve and is destined to become a cult classic.

Creatures of night retreat to places oblivious to the coming day. Creatures of day stir amidst the failing shroud of darkness. A broadening glow splashes red across Father Sky, and, Soaring Eagle, rising from his vigil, is washed by the sacred beacon of the newborn day. Bathed in the warmth | |  | | The Familiar
The Familiar, a variation of the beauty and the beast theme, is also an experiment in role reversal, for in this story, beauty is the beast.
Frederick, an artist, attempts to escape the horrific memory of his wife's death by moving to the mountain village of Halo. There he transforms a century old barn into a gallery and studio. He resumes painting, only now, all of the female images he creates are in the likeness of his departed wife. One rendering having an overwhelming resemblance to her is of a half-human lioness.
He pays little attention to the hunter's stories of slaughtered animals and livestock, until on a hot summer night, while sleeping outside on the front stoop, he awakens to find himself face to face with the beast of his painting, and he soon discovers the tie binding them together is far stronger than mere paint and canvas.

Subtle curves of erotic form, as they were cast upon the canvas, are here, beneath a bodice of golden fur, matted by rain. His heart softens and is moulded by the gentle hands of empathy. B |
