Excerpt:
Talking confusedly, my beloved could describe the details of the Evil acts committed against my family. I sat next to her hospital bed stunned, deadbeat, and overcome with immense anguish. The most severe tragedy happened upon my house, and it happened to those who gave my life order and purpose. I questioned if I should even survive. And if so, what for?
Tears appeared out of nowhere and flooded my eyes. Falling down my cheeks and chin, they dropped on Valerie’s bandaged fingers and dissolved. I kept her palm in mine and felt the weightlessness overtake her. My wife was leaving me with the hope of fair payment: punishment for the horrible death of her daughter. At the same time, she still had a belief in humanity. It was impossible to rescue her life because her injuries were too great.
Valerie’s vital force was a miracle for doctors who saw a great number of tragedies. She practically overcame her death postponed it. She knew she had to reveal the tragedy and its culprit.
At the crossroads of pathways,
Where morning fogs are blue and cold,
Your eyes carved out my days,
When silver frost suffused my soul.

Post it. Tweet it. Like it. Doesn’t make it true. Or Does it?
In a world where the truth can be manufactured in an instant with a post or a tweet, justice can feel like it’s just out of reach.
Jason has had his son, his security and now his job taken away from him. Consumed by bitterness at the injustice of it all, he needs to work out if he really wants to fight back when someone offers to help him do just that.
Jason, a dedicated English teacher and Oscar Wilde devotee, has to decide for himself if the shadowy Queensberry Foundation believes the same things about justice that he does.
Is pushing a bank to the brink of collapse because it cheated a customer OK? Sinking a major corporation to get back at its CEO? What about bringing down a government minister to have one of his decisions reversed?
If The Queensberry Rule was a film, think The Firm meets Falling Down meets Fight Club.
