AT ONCE


New Release....
Alex Troutt Thriller, Book #3
AT Once
“If you don’t stand for something, you will fall for anything.”

FBI Agent Alex Troutt has no intentions of falling for anything. Apparently, neither do the bad guys, as the Boston area is once again targeted by extremists. Boston Strong of just a few years ago is now Boston on Edge. And this time, the targets are men of the cloth—priests.

At least that’s how it looks at first.

As investigators struggle to make sense of the bombings, Alex is thrown for a loop when the FBI assistant director asks her to investigate one of their own—a colleague and friend who is suspected of having ties to a known terrorist. Torn between her values of friendship and the oath she gave when she accepted her FBI credentials, Alex must now lead two investigations simultaneously.

The bombings don’t stop, and panic sets in as the carnage spreads beyond the realm of the original targets.

Bloody Sunday. The IRA. The movement toward peace. Wounds of decades ago have reopened, bleeding all over Boston. As she pieces together the puzzle, Alex begins to wonder just how innocent her colleague really is. It’s almost too much for her to fathom.

Just how far will someone go to make a stand?

AT Bay (An Alex Troutt Thriller, Book #1)
Alexandra Giordano never knew she had it so good. Until it was all gone in an instant.

As she begins her daunting quest to uncover the black spots on her memory, what she finds isn’t sweet or charming or even pleasant. And that’s when she begins to question everything, including herself.

Her work as a Special Agent for the FBI is only a distraction, serving as a mental metronome…anything to crank the gears of her feeble mind.

And then it happens—a bizarre, ritualistic murder. She loses herself in her work, fully immersed in the investigation. Unable to recall even her own kids, she’s somehow able to formulatecoherent theories on what type of person could pull off such a sickening act.

As her mind slowly plugs a few memory gaps, her emotions are scrambled by the reality of herworlds colliding. And the resulting explosion tears her in two.

Can she pick up all the incendiary fragments to solve the twisted crime while she clings to somesemblance of sanity?

One woman can only keep so much…AT Bay.

AT Large (An Alex Troutt Thriller, Book #2)
The pursuit of the truth. The hunt for a life.

For the first time in months, FBI Special Agent Alex Troutt feels almost normal, hanging out at a local bar with friends after work. Not long into the evening she stumbles over one of the most disturbing images she has ever seen.

And that’s only the beginning.

A body is found in Lowell, the human damage, once again, inconceivable. Hours later, another strike. Pushing heartache aside, Alex immerses herself in the investigation. But with every new clue comes a new twist.

With the killing spree drawing the attention of every intelligence and law enforcement agency in a five-state radius, Alex is forced to partner with an egomaniac from the CIA. Yet, even with limitless resources, every step forward proves to be a step too late, the kill list seemingly endless.

Once the killer makes it personal, Alex is left with no other option—she must confront the person who destroyed her life to try to cease the vicious murders. And when she finally learns the killer’s end game, every second counts if she has any hope of stopping the brutal killings.

The hunt will end. Will Alex?

About the Author
A veteran of the corporate wars, former journalist, and true studier of human and social behavior, best-selling author John W. Mefford has been writing novels since he first entered the work force twenty-five years ago, although he never put words on paper until late 2009.

John writes novels full of intrigue, suspense, and thrills, but they also evoke an emotional connection with the characters.

When he’s not writing, he chases three kids around, slaves away in the yard, reads, takes in as many sports as time allows, watches all sorts of movies, and continues to make mental notes of people and societies across the land.

John lives in Frisco, Texas with his beautiful wife, three opinionated kids, and a feisty fat cat who rules the world.

MY how time flies

Yes, my how time flies!  My girls are 17, and 14.  Abby and Becky respectively, and I never blinked and now they are teens!  I miss the babies of course, but I am too old now to have babies, and can wait another ten yrs for grand babies.  

Becky will graduate 8th grade next week, and it gets me dizzy just thinking about their futures.  And it's true, the worrying never ends, especially with girls.  I am not sure how much moms of boys worry, but in today's world, I worry about my girls among many other things.

So this weekend, we are going to have a teen party before the summer revs up.  The teen party will include lots of springtime/summertime cleaning.  If I can get Becky to do any. When they were little, (and this is one of my favorite stories)  Becky would insist that Abby was the bigger slob.  Soon after, the girls got their own rooms.  Needless to say, Abby wasn't the biggest slob.  Even to this day, Abby is not the bigger slob.  Becky is still young, so I have time to instill the virtues of a cleaner room.  

Last night, Becky had her 8th grade dance, and told us of a boy she liked.  Well, this was the first I had heard of it.  And of course, all the girls were wearing dresses, except for BECKY!  I was at work, and Abby had tried to get my 14 yr old to wear a dress, but alas, had failed.  Becky felt that wearing a bracelet and having a purse was good enough for her.  UGH!  Well there is Thursday, I do have that.  I think I scheduled dental appointments that I will have to rearrange yet again.  No fun there.  

Right now all is well in the house at 4:30 am with Chucks' cpap mask squeaking.  Chuck is the girls confidante and hears all things they are afraid to tell mom.  Which of course is all things that evade grounding and any kind of punishment, and of course boys it seems.  Well, the summer is long, and next year I will have two high schoo
lers.  We shall see how that fares out.

and I am busy reading a book to review, so stay tuned for that.  my plans are to get busy with my blog, so I may post some delicious recipes that I have tried.  My next entry will be that.  Until next time~~~

Flair for Cardonnay a book review


NEW RELEASE....

When flamboyant senior sleuth Sadie Kramer learns the owner of Cioccolato, her favorite chocolate shop, is in trouble, she heads for the California wine country with a tote-bagged Yorkie and a slew of questions. The fourth generation Tremiato Winery promises answers, but not before a dead body turns up at the vintners’ scheduled Harvest Festival.

All four Tremiato siblings have possible motives, as well as a few peripheral acquaintances, but only one could be the guilty party. As Sadie juggles truffles, tips and turmoil, she’ll need to sort the grapes from the wrath in order to find the identity of the killer.

Available to buy from....

I loved this mystery! In fact it made me want to drink some wine, eat cheese and chocolate as I turned each page. I could almost smell the delicious truffles Sadie ate as the author described them. The Tremiato family has dynamics as we all do in our families, without the murder mystery. See who is the guilty one as you turn page by page. This author had vivid descriptions in Sadies' weekend off of the bed and breakfast that could fill the readers imagination. I could imagine my self enthralled in a game of rummy or sipping wine, as the reader should. Find out if her chocolatier friend Matteo is the criminal or a victim of jealous family members. You'll definitely be able to smell the chocolate! Until next time! Carole
