Tainted Souls

 

Tainted Souls

Twenty-eight years ago, Detective Michael Flowers became entangled in the twisted sadistic mind games of a killer in Cartersville, Georgia. Now, once again, the tranquility of his town is pulled back to unearth a psychotic darkness born in the shadows of upper middle class luxury. The body of a college student is found hanging from the roof of the University’s main building. Detective Flowers knows this is the work of a devil.  

At the age of thirteen, Megan Thompson was thrown down the stairs and stabbed seventeen times with a pencil that broke off in her back. Left for dead and partially paralyzed after this violent attack from her brother, Junior, she is taken in and cared for by a wealthy family. She struggles to escape the memories of the cold and painful dark world that she once lived. Her hopes for a bright future vanish and the shadows of her past come back to haunt her when Junior is released from a mental state facility.

Rebekah Davenport, a reporter looking for a career making story, clips at Detective Flowers’ heels, pointing out evidence and opinions along the way contrary to his experience and intuition. Left to her own devices, Davenport falls in over her head pursuing the truth in a life threatening dance with the devil. When a second body is found pulled apart in sadistic torture, Flowers teams up with Davenport to investigate possibilities he may be too biased to see. They follow the trail of the victims to Megan’s group of friends and a tight lipped business called “Pleasure Island” until an unexpected revelation brings the past colliding into the present.

Freedom of the Press in Small-Town America: 

My Opinions

In a 9-year career as an op-ed columnist for a small-town newspaper in America’s heartland, Steve Hochstadt wrote about all the key issues of 21st-century American life. From family holidays to police brutality, climate science to fatherhood, partisan politics to economic inequality, to racism and sexism and truth in politics, he covered it all. He used weekly opinion columns to trace our country’s political history as well as his own journey as a journalist-historian. The stories Hochstadt tells are both universal and particular, constructed by observing America and the world from the vantage point of Jacksonville, Illinois, and his own family history. His essays connect national politics and daily life in small-town America.

As a Holocaust historian, child of a Jewish refugee, and admirer of Jackie Robinson, he has a unique perspective on political issues in this country. He relies on his historical background, careful logic, clear writing, and social scientific evidence to back his personal opinions. Hochstadt’s optimistic belief in the power of liberal journalism transforms these essays into a message of hope to all Americans.

Author: Steve Hochstadt. Publisher: Atlantic Publishing Group, Inc. About the Author: Steve Hochstadt grew up on Long Island, earned a BA and PhD at Brown University, and taught history at Bates College in Maine for 27 years and at Illinois College in Jacksonville 2006-2016. His early research measured migration in Germany. Mobility and Modernity: Migration in Germany, 1820-1989 won the Sharlin Prize of the Social Science History Association. The Holocaust became his focus. Sources of the Holocaust is a document collection used across the country in Holocaust courses. His grandparents escaped from Vienna to Shanghai in 1939, and two books reveal the refugee experience: Exodus to Shanghai: Stories of Escape from the Third Reich and Shanghai-Geschichten: Die jüdische Flucht Nach China. He sits on the International Advisory Board of the Shanghai Jewish Refugees Museum. He is a flower gardener and pancake maker.

Frantastic Stories

Frantastic Stories is a collection of short stories about travel and life, written by Robin Who. Wander and wonder through the lives of two characters: the adventure-loving Jane and the freedom-seeker Henrietta. This bilingual book, in English and Spanish, has been created for passionate explorers and intrepid curious minds; those who want to discover and see what this great planet has to offer us. Frantastic Stories is the perfect way to immerse yourself into another world and unwind - where fiction meets reality.

⁠"I hope the stories we share make you smile. Inspire you. Make you feel empowered. Make you want to wander. Make you wonder about life, the good and the bad. Make you go on a journey -whatever and wherever that is. A journey of change or growth. A journey to explore the beautiful places hidden around our planet; the beautiful people that can overtake the shadow created by those that make us "lose faith in humanity".

Life is about the journeys we take. It is about the mindset we want to have and create to go through our journeys. It is about learning and listening. It is about deciding to speak up when the fire builds within us.

There is so much in this one life we have, that we can discover and pursuit. Any journey is important, and I believe our stories show that.

Why in English and Spanish? Because langauges open new worlds to us. They are more than just words. Languages are culture, history, values and...relationships. Languages help you grow because you learn how to connect with others on a different level.

I am thrilled to share Frantastic Stories with you, because I hope each one of them brings you a step further in YOUR journey.

Yours,

Robin Who

Salvaging Civilization: 

Uniting America with Christian Values

By now most Americans realize that our Republic is in crisis, countered by Donald Trump and 74 million voters. The challenge is (1) comprehending the danger; (2) identifying what is necessary to reverse it; and (3) providing effective plans to accomplish that goal. Those answers are the theme of this book.

How will we unite? Our Republic is rooted in Christian values but Christians are declining in America; many are atheists or in-between. From theology, Dr. Mike explains that atheists and Christians are essentially compatible, everyone united by common values. 

Dr. Mike refutes the obsession with racism and slavery, quoting the slaves themselves. He proves that Jefferson and the founders of the Republic were their heroes, not oppressors. 

He then exposes the dysfunction and irrationality of communism and reveals how it has permeated America. Drawing from scripture, he contrasts communism with universal values that can restore our civilized way of life. 

Most important, then he outlines plans to salvage civilization and our Republic. This is a call to action.

Author: Dr. Edward J. Mike Publisher: Atlantic Publishing Group, Inc. About the Author: At a young age, Dr. Edward Mike determined to dedicate his life to promote Christian values as a Catholic priest. Following four years studying languages and philosophy, he was chosen to be among a small group of American seminarians who are selected annually to live at the North American College in Rome and study at the renowned Pontificia Università Gregoriana, taught by the top Jesuit theologians. 

But he was traumatized to discover that the Vatican is a corrupt business with little in common with the Christian values he had dedicated his life to promote. The idealists in the group banded together to survive emotionally. He graduated with honors and strove to be an exemplary Christian, serving his fellow man.

As a parish priest, beside typical church duties, he became a much sought-after counselor of the parishioners, with referrals from attorneys and physicians as well. Fluent in Spanish, in the summer he ministered to the (legal) Mexican migrant farm workers who flooded northern Michigan to harvest cherries and other crops. He was the court translator and said Mass in barns. 

Increasingly, Dr. Mike's values clashed with church practices until he concluded that, to maintain his integrity, he had to move away from organized religion. His success as a counselor led him to a PhD in Clinical Psychology, and he was soon in great demand as a psychotherapist.

Recently, responding to the need of a rural hospital for a neuropsychologist, he was soon in great demand to provide physicians in a wide catchment area with neuropsychological assessment, primarily of patients brain-damaged in accidents or suspected of dementia. 

Dr. Mike lives with his marvelous wife in Michigan and the couple has two daughters.

Last Temptation 

(Trials of the Demiurge Book 1)

Will her love be enough to change Daemon's ways? Or will she become another unsuspecting victim enthralled by his depravity and secret mission?

For Jacob, Daemon is a friend, mentor and wingman. With Peter, Daemon is a competitor for the love of Esperanza and the hidden threat in their love triangle. To the enchanting Esperanza, Daemon is an intriguing paramour who is too irresistible to refuse.

As a child, Esperanza grew up with her two best friends, Jacob and Peter. As Jacob becomes wrapped up in Daemon’s unconventional lifestyle, Esperanza finds herself spending more and more time with Peter. He may have been a childhood friend, but he now has a sexy allure that she can’t ignore.

When tragedy strikes, the whole relationship with Peter is called off. Jacob’s too busy with his own problems to be there for her either, so she’s a sitting target when Daemon swoops in and focuses his seductive charm on her. No one other than Daemon knows the hidden truth behind his sinister deeds or the terrible extent he will go to fulfill his divine purpose.

Can she fall for his seductive appeal without losing her soul? And will he let her?

When he met Esperanza, Daemon never expected to find true love. Now, the eternal bad boy is left with a problem. Is he willing to give up his entire purpose in life for the only woman he has ever loved? Could he accept the consequences of his decision and choose love over duty? More importantly, would she?

”As I finished the last page, my mind was swirling with Last Temptation’s message ...Sloane Virago’s debut performance is profound. Her prose is smooth and clear, no lack of clarity there, but as these well-drawn characters wend their ways, the gist of it all eluded me until I closed the book and gave it some thought … Everything together -- plot, characterization, prose style, message, and lovemaking -- cooks up one heck of fascinating stew. Bravo, Ms. Virago! Welcome to the literary world.” - Jon Michael Miller for Readers’ Favorite

”It kept me turning the pages to find out what happened next.” - Samantha Gregory for Readers’ Favorite

LAST TEMPTATION is Sloane Virago’s debut novel under her own name. She has previously written dozens of books as a ghostwriter with several Amazon bestsellers. Be on the lookout for the next novel in the Trials of the Demiurge series, Temptation’s End.
