I have been a nervous wreck lately when I am out in the open. For some reason I have seen a lot of hawks flying through the air with snakes in their talons. The other day I watched as three hawks fought over a snake right above a school yard full of children. I froze. Oh dear Lordy, please don’t let them drop that snake on a kid. How do you recover from that? What the heck do you tell a kid to make them feel better after a snake falls from the sky and lands on their head? Nothing. There is nothing you can say to fix that. I wouldn’t be able to do anything anyway. I have come to realize in such situation I just stand there and scream. I’m that idiot that just spends the whole time screaming.

When a wife goes missing, her husband is often the prime suspect in her disappearance. But what happens when she is never found? In some of these cases, the husband was found guilty of murder, without a body.
Missing Wives, Missing Lives focuses on unique cases in which the wife has never been found and the undying efforts of her family as they continue the painful search to bring her home. The book covers decades old cases, such as Jeanette Zapata, who has been missing since 1976, to more recent and widely known cases, such as Stacy Peterson, who has been missing since 2007.

The Terrorist Next Door (A David Gold / A.C. Battle Mystery Book 1)
Sheldon Siegel
Genre: Mystery, Thriller & Suspense
FREE for a limited time
He’s Homeland Security’s biggest nightmare. Someone is setting off fire bombs in Chicago in stolen cars using untraceable cell phones. The international terror channels are silent. A group calling itself the Islamic Freedom Federation demands the release of Hassan Al-Shahid, a graduate student whose plan to set off a bomb at the Art Institute was thwarted by Detective David Gold and his long-time partner, Detective Paul Liszewski. Their heroic efforts had cost Liszewski his life and put Gold in the hospital. The FBI and Homeland Security believe the bomber is a freelancer operating off the grid.
Meet Detective David Gold. He’s a third generation native of South Chicago, the hardscrabble neighborhood of steel mills, smokestacks, and steeples near the Indiana border. He’s one of Chicago’s most decorated detectives.
Meet Gold’s new partner, Detective A.C. Battle. He’s a native of Mississippi whose family moved to Chicago to escape the Jim Crow South. He grew up in the Robert Taylor Homes across the Dan Ryan Expressway from Mayor Daley’s house and Comiskey Park.
Gold is still suffering from the aftereffects of Liszewski’s death when he receives a Medal of Valor on the steps of the Art Institute. During the ceremony, a car bomb is detonated across the street, killing a passerby. Gold soon receives a cryptic text : “It isn’t over.”
It’s just the beginning. Untraceable car bombs detonate at the Wrigley Field El station, Millennium Park, the Museum of Science and Industry, O’Hare, Hyde Park, and the upscale Rush Street area. Chicago PD, the FBI and Homeland Security can’t trace the bomber.
As bombs continue to go off, Gold and Battle are drawn into a desperate cat-and-mouse game against a brilliant mind. From its opening scene to its stunning denouement, Siegel writes a lightning paced thriller capturing the complexity and fears of the post-9/11 world. Along the way, he provides an insider’s look at Chicago’s neighborhoods-from the Magnificent Mile to century-old churches where mass is still celebrated in Polish to gritty seafood shacks next to the ghostly expanses where the steel mills once stood.
