The Long Island Project: Book Four of the Detectiving Series
Our old friends, Detectives Bobbie Nelson and Bob Lawton, "the BBs," are engaged in the most frightening case of their career, an armed quarantine of Long Island by a sinister group. To find the answer to the problem, they travel through time to 1942, and discover the problem is larger than they had thought. The third novel in Russell's Patterns Series, we meet up again with the infamous detectives, Bobbie Nelson and Bob Lawson as they're called upon to solve another problem. Why is Long Island under quarantine, and who is behind it? Before long, they uncover a conspiracy, which could lead a takeover through mind control and time travel.
"As with all of Moran's novels, the characters adapt to the situations they find themselves in and their interactions bring the best out in the 'good guys and gals' and will turn readers against those behind the conspiracy. There's plenty of intrigue for everyone as the 'BBs' solve their latest puzzle. I look forward to their next adventure!" – RK

The Love We Almost Lost
Doctor Rebecca, or Becca as she prefers to be called, felt that she had a rare bond with Captain Jack. It began as a simple doctor-patient relationship, then developed into a friendship, then, after constant flirting, it became a serious love affair.
Captain Jack was happy that Becca ignored the regulations, and so was she. When they were discharged from the military within two weeks of each other, they looked forward to making their relationship permanent, and planned to marry.
But, on the day Jack returned to the States, he was mugged, and suffered a multi-year mental blackout from amnesia. Becca didn't know where he was, and she assumed he was dead after such a long absence.
Becca sees Jack interviewed on TV, although the man doesn't think he's Jack because he suffers from severe amnesia. When they meet, Jack comes out of his amnesia and his mind remembers the woman his heart had never forgotten. They resume their love and their lives together.
Becca, widely recognized as the nation's expert on infectious diseases, is tapped by the White House to combat a deadly virus that has been set loose on the world. Jack, who by now has become an FBI Agent, joins his wife Becca in the most terrifying struggle they ever experienced—the fight to save humanity.

The Making a Mystery with Annie Tillery
Instead I have shared the more creative side of story-telling; where ideas come from, why a particular setting captures me, and how a plot twists and turns.
Lots of queries addressed the characters in the series, Annie, boyfriend Ty Egan, Jill Tillery (Aunt J), and of course, the villains. At the end of most chapters I give an account of the journey I took to produce The Madonna Ghost.
I hope you enjoy it, and if you write, I hope you get an idea or two for your own book. Tell that story!
In response to the many questions I received from my readers, I published a new version of The Madonna Ghost. A completely different book, it expands most chapters with an explanation of what goes into writing a fictional mystery. I provide background information about the creation of plot, character and setting. I share my research and offer a few short pieces to flesh out my characters.
There is an activity with prompts to motivate the reader to create their own story. For book clubs, and classes, you'll find discussion questions. For the teacher there are lesson plans and websites to enable students and readers to dig deeper into the world of The Madonna Ghost.
