Kate Senlis must run blockade and battle front to fulfill a promise she made to a dying man.
True courage is like a kite; a contrary wind raises it higher. - John Petit-Senn (1792-1870)

Does it count as a rescue if you escape pirates only to end up adrift with a crew of women and a cargo of suspicion?
Pleasant it is, when over a great sea the winds trouble the waters,
to gaze from shore upon another's great tribulation; not because any man's troubles are a delectable joy,
but because to perceive you are free of them yourself is pleasant. - Lucretius (94 BC - 55 BC)

If you like adventure, mystery, history, maybe some fantasy too, and women who never, ever fall and hurt their ankle while running from the bad guys, then these works are for you. Most stories are based on historical events, some mysterious, and possible connections to modern events.
Have you ever wondered:
If you like a story within a story, some mystery in your history, a shaded past, a growing storm, and a twist in the tail, then these are the stories for you, because after all, predictable endings are boring.

The first novel came in the second grade, but it was only half a page
("using one of those big pencils too") and even then, the author was
concerned about the length. But it wasn't until years later that writing became a form of stress management.
"It's amazing how many co-workers requested this boss or that co-worker be rendered a victim of terrible circumstances.
Resemblance to anyone actually living is purely coincidental. No, really. . ." - the Author
