JUSTICE DELAYED (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Bertha Lipschitz and Virginia Crosby blackmailed Father Cregan into meeting them at the hunting cabin. It had been a long drive from Utica to the cabin in bitter, below zero temperatures, and the priest was unaware of who he would meet, but the information he had received was disturbing. The threat of jail time was not something he could ignore. For over twenty years his priesthood had been riddled with accusations of child abuse and molestation. The worst kind of accusations, the ugliest kind.
A FAMILIAR OTHERNESS (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I was sure I saw Butch last week, driving down River Street in his Chevy Suburban, the longest Chevy Suburban I’ve ever seen. We used to kid him about that at the station, but he insisted it wasn’t bigger than any other vehicle in that class. In the back seat was his wife, and up front was Beano II, his beagle. I never asked him why his wife rode in the back and the dog up front, he was an officer and junior firefighters avoided any joking that might cross the line, because crossing that line wa

Read excerpt

Sooner or later, he knew, someone would be pointing
EPIPHANY (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Epiphany, I like that word, and I’m experiencing one at the moment. I turned 70 years old today, and although I’ve softened around the edges, I haven’t changed much. I still like the same books, the same movies, and the same music I enjoyed decades ago. I’m not a millionaire, nor will I ever be one, but I have experienced an enrichment that transcends material wealth, for I have met some of the most interesting people on this planet. From star athletes to movie icons, from the destitute to the w
OTHER MOTHER BROTHERS (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Noah Gregory was led down the hallway of the American Embassy, handcuffed and wearing leg chains. He was directed into an interrogation room by a United States Marine and instructed to be seated at an interview table. His handcuffs were fastened to a hasp on that table. The metal folding chair he sat on was cold and uncomfortable. On the table, to one side, was a reel-to-reel tape recorder and what appeared to be a small stack of passports. The blinds were drawn on the windows behind him and dir
