Hello! Check out my first novel:
Joshua and the Late Police
Joshua (12) has few friends growing up in Cincinnati, save his dog and his urban-exploring Uncle Richard.
Book Summary
Joshua (12) has few friends growing up in Cincinnati, save his dog and his urban-exploring Uncle Richard. He is habitually late. One day his tardy arrival at school triggers his suspension. He agrees to attend a camp, which specializes in helping time-challenged children.
Upon arriving, his dog in tow, Joshua finds happy boys and girls enjoying fun activities in the rustic north woods of Michigan. Cult-like elements soon surface, and Joshua realizes he is surrounded by brainwashed campers. CITs (Counselors-in-Training) impose harsh punishments and Joshua dubs them “the Late Police.” Earning one’s way home seems impossible, and a disturbing punishment awaits anyone attempting escape.
Hello! Check out my second novel:
Joshua and the Mystery of Late Camp
Joshua, age 12, is perpetually late and sent to a camp specializing in helping time-challenge children.
Book Summary
Joshua, age 12, is perpetually late and sent to a camp specializing in helping time-challenge children. Upon arriving, Joshua finds boys and girls far too enthusiastic about punctuality. Cult-like elements surface—Joshua’s the only camper not brainwashed.
He hears a campfire story about a ghost that haunts the grounds. Even more frightening, he encounters Seber (12), a girl trapped in her shadow. She tells him children who know too much disappear. Joshua and a bunkmate, Mario (12), discover they are telepaths. Like all late children, they have dormant mental abilities, which the camp is activating, especially Joshua’s power to send objects through the timestream.
