ONE WRONG TURN

E M Delaney

A wrong turn in traffic leads Phillip Murphy spiraling down a road of tragedy, deception and accusations of his involvement in two homicides.

After regaining consciousness behind the wheel of his car, Atlanta police officers are jerking him out of it. An elderly woman lies dead in the street just fifty feet behind them. Phil insists he was carjacked but witnesses have a different story.

When opiates are found in his system during a blood test the charges turn into Vehicular Homicide. That would be a nightmare for anyone if they weren’t guilty, but are only the beginning of Phil’s troubles. Now his wallet has turned up at the scene of another homicide across town; the murder of an ex-professional football player…turned heroine dealer.

It would be hard to believe things could get any worse for Phillip Murphy, but they’re about to.

THE WRITE IN

E M Delaney

Over-the-road trucker, Lester Moore, leads every poll in the country for the office of President of The United States. The thing is, he isn't running!

If only Les wouldn't have won that laptop computer for being selected his company's 'Driver of the Year', none of this would be happening. Just as soon as a lady friend shows him how to use the contraption, he enters a political survey contest that asks the question: What would be the first thing you'd do if you were elected President? His answer, which mentioned something about an average guy having the job, ends up printed on the front page of 'The National News Daily'. All it took then was a couple of college pranksters setting up a website, Write-In Les Moore for President, and his popularity skyrockets. It was all a big joke.

A divorced, fifty-six year old with health concerns and an IRS problem, Les is not your typical presidential candidate by any stretch. But, people love him and they are logging in to the site by the millions to pledge their support.

The bureaucrats in Washington aren't about to have some truck driver hi-jack the election process and they are willing to do whatever is necessary to avoid it, up to and including, eliminating the problem altogether.

MIRACLE IN THE SWAMP

E M Delaney

Retired Louisiana Bureau of Investigation Detective Dwayne Chevalier, faces the most challenging case he has ever encountered. Is it murder, redemption or a miracle?

Admiringly referred to as the black Sherlock Holmes, Chevalier is considered the most successful investigator in Louisiana history; but he is about to encounter a case that will require a miracle to solve.

Jason Raney, a young caucasion man, is missing. When his motorcycle helmet is found deep in the Louisiana bayou following a hurricane with four bullet holes in it, authorities assume he has been murdered. It's a fairly safe assumption. After all, he has a history of violence himself. Bad choices, drug addiction and a racist philosophy have dominated his short twenty-three year life.

Jason's attacker likes to kill.

Eighty year-old river dweller Etta Mouton, a woman of color, has lived alone in the bayou for fifty-five years, secluded from the outside world; having taken refuge there after her father and brother were killed by four white men in New Orleans. It isn't often one finds a young white man near her home, shot six times, and left for dead.

Mark Bachelor is a Louisiana Wildlife Biologist who is in charge of the hurricane clean-up in Bayou LaBachen.

MIRACLE IN THE SWAMP, a suspenseful Mystery / Thriller, combines four main charcters in a story of murder and redemption.
