Story Blurbs: 1) A 9/11 survivor barely escapes the South Tower collapse and must make a critical decision, return to his family and face crushing debt from his failing business or disappear so that his wife and daughter may receive a two million dollar insurance settlement in "The One Who Got Away." 2) Are you being abused by a bully? Here's a number you can call: "1-800-GET-EVEN." 3) Two disgruntled veterans plan to bomb a popular tourist destination in "A Day at the Park." 4) A retiree signs on with a secret U.
S. investigative agency to analyze suspicious emails in "Citizen Snoop." 5) A beautiful new addition to a retirement facility recounts her early adventures with an astonishing array of celebrities in "Death in the Sixties." 6) It's going to take some ingenious planning and an army to uproot a vicious drug cartel "South of the Border." 7) An interracial high school love affair during the turbulent sixties, built on a mutual passion for classic rock and soul, brings joy and sorrow to the couple in the novella "As Way Leads on to Way." 8) He's friendless, bullied and very, very tired, but planning the biggest mass murder in the history of American high schools gives him all the lift he needs in "Lone Wolf." 9) An aging pastor recalls an early childhood friendship that ended abruptly and mysteriously when "Teddy Moved." 10) She has never spoken a word in her lifetime, but she finds acceptance and fellowship in "The Land of Sunsets." 11) They stand by themselves on the boardwalk of their beloved Jersey Shore in the height of summer awaiting a tsunami which will wash away precious memories.
Should they stay or flee for their lives? It's strange "The Things We Do for Love."

À propos de l'auteur

Biographie de Richard Van Doren

Richard Van Doren is an ordained minister in a mainline Protestant denomination. He has always been fascinated by the fringe element in American culture and the extreme events that test faith. All of his novels and short stories deal with the collision of spirituality and earthly crises, or the ongoing conflict between the forces of good and evil. He moonlights as a college composition instructor, and every semester he teaches his students the two most important rules of writing: 1) write on a subject about which you know something, and 2) write on a subject about which you feel strongly.
Over the years he has read and heard about countless instances of dark invasions into every day, innocent living. Anyone who has ever experienced something very strange, or who believes that we live in a reality that extends far beyond this world of the five senses will find his novels and stories much to their liking. All of these works contain instances that Van Doren has either experienced in his career or was told about by friends, students, parishioners and family.
