    About this ebook

    The Northeast is concerned over the expanding scope of minor electrical fluctuations that no one can explain. The problem started in a 300 bed chronic care facility, and the first investigator was Karl Hoffman, who traced the disturbances to a brain dead child, the last 'survivor' of a boating accident.
    Karl is called before a Police Detective, and must explain with great care his role in tracking down and fixing the problem. If he tells too much, he may lose the best friend he has...the brain dead child who isn't quite as damaged as the experts thought.

    David Howells

    Doctor of Chiropractic since 11/1984. Former Chief of Nuclear Medicine, Lutheran Medical Center, St. Louis, MO. Volunteer EMT, Hurley Fire and Rescue Squad, Hurley NY. Folk musician, volunteer soundman for the Hudson Valley Folk Guild. Kiwanis Club of Kingston. Society for Creative Anachronism fighter, archer, and chirurgeon. Greetings and welcome to my website. Thanks for stopping by. I welcome you to download VANESSA with my complements and see if you like the style. I'm told by readers the first two chapters are a slow acceleration (others say 'no problem') and then it takes off from there as a great page turner. Each of the four sequels had good reviews on first released a few years back, so I hope you'll try those as well. Time Snap and Hell Rise were more recent efforts I hope you'll like. The short stories have been a lot of fun to write, and are getting good response levels. Thank you all so very much! Long and merry life, best of health, David L Howells PS: I've done my best to filter out errors in the copy, but if you see one on any of the works, please notify me at twosword at earthlink dot net? I'd appreciate it (just include a three word sequence and which title, and I'll fix it with a search and correct). Happy reading!
