Because I wrote it, I had to figure out what to put on the back cover to explain what it is. I tried to write a long, third-person summary that would imply how great the book is and also sound vaguely authoritative—like maybe someone who isn’t me wrote it—but I soon discovered that I’m not sneaky enough to pull it off convincingly. So I decided to just make a list of things that are in the book: Pictures Words Stories about things that happened to me Stories about things that happened to other people because of me Eight billion dollars* Stories about dogs The secret to eternal happiness* *These are lies. Perhaps I have underestimated my sneakiness!

Download or read book His Life s Work written by Frances G. Joyce and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-08-16 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For sixty-seven years, Jonas Walker has lived a double life. To friends and family he is a devoted husband and father and an upstanding member of his church and community. To his victims, he was the judge and executioner. Walker's two lives collide after his diaries are discovered by his granddaughter. Who is the real Jonas Walker? Now in his eighties, Walker is in a long term senior care facility suffering from Alzheimer's disease. CeCe Lawrence and her boss Daniel Lundqvist are given the task of investigating Walker's diaries. How much do his wife and daughter know about the man who claims to have drowned his victims to cleanse them of their sins? Is he a serial killer or a frustrated writer? Working from his diaries and his "souvenirs," the collection of jewelry he claims to have taken from his victims, CeCe and Daniel must cover a twelve state area and a time span of over fifty years. How will they find justice for his victims before their investigation becomes a media circus? CeCe is smart, beautiful, and compulsively neat; she is also afraid of uneaten pizzas and dessert carts. Trying to start a new life and career after a painful divorce is difficult, especially with a domineering mother and an ex-husband who wants to be "friends with benefits." Daniel, the new head of the Lundqvist Agency, spent thirteen years on the Philadelphia Police Department. He has piercing blue eyes and reddish blond hair. He came to this country from Sweden at age five and only retains a whisper of an accent. When he is tired, angry, or frustrated it becomes more pronounced. Daniel, who became a father at seventeen, raised his son with the help of his parents after his wife deserted them. Not surprisingly, he has commitment issues, and despite their obvious attraction to each other, CeCe has vowed to steer clear of a fellow "walking wounded." After their inquiries attract the attention of the Bower Foundation, a Washington Think Tank on Crime, they must find a way to work with special investigators and local law enforcement agencies to uncover the truth, but the truth is never simple. The investigators assigned to work with Daniel and CeCe each bring something unique to the investigation. Randal Gelz III is a rising star at the Foundation and his partner David Foster is the cynical veteran. When CeCe and Randy are paired together, she must come to grips with her growing attraction to him and her feelings for Daniel without losing her focus on the investigation. Walker's granddaughter claims his last victim was her fiance, Todd Marston, but Marston is his only male victim. What could make a serial killer change his pattern? How does an elderly man with Alzheimer's overpower a healthy young man? The deeper they delve into Walker's twisted past the more confusing the last three murders become. Something isn't right. As they search for answers, the body count starts to rise. CeCe realizes there has to be another killer at work...and she might be the next victim."
