Escape

 

Viv Drewa’s short story From the Pages of Grandfather’s Life is a dramatic turn from her novels. She writes of her grandfather Lucjen Czepirski’s escape from Russian occupied Poland in Nineteen-Thirteen. It is a true story of heroism, endurance, and the pursuit of happiness.

Viv Grandfather

“Grandfather fought for his freedom, not unlike the slaves who fought for their in the south around the time of the civil war. Grandfather escaped from a communist regime in Russia and Poland to make a better life for himself and his family. The things this man had to endure during his escape from what sounds like a living hell makes me realize the pursuit of happiness of the human race. A place to live in peace, freedom, liberty, and justice. The author of this book is his granddaughter a lovely person who carries on her grandfathers legacy in a beautiful and endearing way. Read this short excerpt of Grandfather’s life. It is humbling, to say the least. A feel-good read.”

Dead To Writes – A Laura & Gerry Mystery – Book 7 – By Laura Vaughan. You won’t be able to put this one down.

DEAD TO WRITESNatalie Fisher committed suicide after an author stole her work and published it as her own.

Two years later, her best friend Terri is found dead in her hotel room.

Are the two deaths connected?

Laura Fitz and Detective Gibbons are on the case to trap a ruthless author trying to get away with murder!

“Terri Carter was minding her booth at the “Murders Are Us” Writer’s symposium when a dark shadow hovered over her in the form of me, Francesca. I had a score to settle with her as she dared to write and get published a novel titled: The Death of Her, claiming that I was the villain and had killed someone close to her. How dare she try and ruin my untarnished reputation. She will pay dearly and so will anyone else that dares to cross me. Things spiral out of control when Laura Fritz gets on the case but first, there is a murder victim in the park and then someone decided to kill Terri Carter in a unique and clever way. How about sending her a bottle of wine and some chocolate with no card. How about spiking it with hemlock as the card says: Enjoy the Hemlock!

5-star-review
When Sophie is questioned about Terri’s death she explains that they were supposed to meet but when she knocked at her door there was no answer and she spoke with Cassie who convinced her to wait until the morning to see her. Things spiral out of control but first, we meet Laura and her husband Gerry, Janice who is Gibbon’s wife and a weird neighbor named Myrna. Laura is on the case and has the bottle of wine and chocolates analyzed and they learn that it was indeed Hemlock. So, what does that mean I did it? I have 7 people that will swear to my whereabouts when the murder was taking place. Gibbons met with Sylvie and got her version of what she thinks happened and that she and Natalie wrote novels and wanted to her them published. How dare she way that I would hinder them even though they are not quality writers.

Laura Fritz is my problem as well as Gibbons because these two are too smart and two involved hopefully she will get sidetracked planning her friend’s wedding and lay off of me and this case. Laura’s boss needed her to cover for her and finding Terri Carter’s body in her hotel room and she explained her findings. The Chief of Homicide requested that she and Gibbons work the case but something would change all that. Listen to what Cassie relates and realize that Sylvie is hiding something and maybe she is the killer! When Jeff, Laura, and Maddy meet out of nowhere Jeff falls over and it appears that he is having a heart attack. At this point maybe I got lucky and he will be off the case because author Karen Vaughan made him too ambitious and too dedicated to his job.
Let me recap for you so that you know that I Francesca Bartoski is straightforward and honest to a fault: Terri Carter victim 2 died from ingesting wine and dark chocolate laced with hemlock. I am the next victim how dare they say that I harassed the victim on the morning of her death. I could care less that she’s gone and like I said before I have 7 alibis and why would I arrange to have this package delivered. My time is more valuable than that.
What about Sylvia Boucher that never bothered to check with the manager downstairs to find out if her friend was alive and claimed that her roommate Cassie would confirm that she was at the hotel at 10:45 p.m. But wait until you hear her version and realize that Sylvia might by lying. With the help of her friend Elaine, Laura gets a lead on the hemlock but how can that lead to me? I don’t think so? But, things are heating up and I have to begin to cover my tracks as too many people are beginning to point the finger at me and I am the only one that really counts in all of this. Detective Carolyn Crawford has the case so why is she including those two annoying nosy bodies Laura and Jeff. When Jeff is admitted to the hospital and now has to be on best rest for a while and on a desk why does he try to get in on the final action? Laura’s neighbor is an elderly woman named Myrna who is definitely from another planet you might say but what she reveals might lead them to find out about where the hemlock came from and now I have to think fast before I am the next victim you might say.
I think I’ll call my special forces guy or my strong guy Oscar and make sure that he takes care of both Sylvia and Cassie and if need be anyone else that stands in my way.
However, author Karen Vaughan is too clever, too crafty and definitely has a flair for the unknown, twists, surprises and startling endings that you, the reader will never expect.
Just how did they think they could possibly take me down? Am I really so diabolical to have killer Terri and Natalie two mediocre people and below par writers? Just what did Karen Vaughan have in store for me Francesca Bartoski L? That’s a secret and if I tell then the killer might send you a basket of chocolate and wine. Find out who gets caught: DEAD TO WRITES!”
I give this book Five Golden Glasses of Wine: DRINK UP AT YOUR OWN RISK!

The Angler and The Owl by Award-winning Viv Drewa

giphyANGLER

“Author Viv Drewa brings the search for the blue-ringed owl, the dangers of the Amazon and two people who have just met and their feelings for each other. This was a page turner.”

5-star-review

“France Hunter was excited about her first trip to the Smokey Mountains in Tennessee. Her family planned camping trips here in the past and she just loved it. Now that she graduated from the University of Michigan, with a degree in ornithology, she was more than ready to study her favorite bird: owls. That is until the black bear decided to show up making her trip short in the wilderness and a bit longer in the hospital.

27 years later she finds herself in the Amazon where she is in search of her first new species of owl – the blue-ringed owl. What she didn’t expect were the feelings she soon started to feel after meeting John Sinclair who was the host of the television show ‘Sinclair’s Adventures’. Rounding out the group was Cathy Birch who was gathering information for her latest magazine article.

Author Viv Drewa brings the search for the blue-ringed owl, the dangers of the Amazon and two people who have just met and their feelings for each other. This was a page turner which I actually finished in 2 nights. Very enjoyable.”

Before retiring France Hunter decides to go to the place where she found her first new
species of owl: The Amazon. Her group follows a well-known angler, John Sinclair, and his team, along with a reporter who wants to do a story on Hunter.

Once arriving at the site, Sinclair leaves to go further up the river. He has a show to record and is hoping to catch an even larger fish this time.

Hunter and the group with her run into a gruesome nightmare with the satellite phone
destroyed and one man fighting for life. Sinclair is not due to pick them up for another week.

Will they survive?

This fast-paced, short story, action adventure will keep you on your toes as you travel with Ornithologist France Hunter and her team on her second trip down the Amazon River to look for rare, even new species of Owls.
“Francine Hunter, who had been called France since her younger sister couldn’t say, Francine, was sitting on a boulder, sipping a bottle of water. She’s enjoying the sun and eager to get to the place where she found her first new species of owl: the blue-ringed owl. She looked through the opening of this enormous canopy enjoying the lovely foliage and wishing she was already deep inside.”

They reflect the straitened circumstances, strong work ethic and close sense of community of the time, as well as the resilience and ingenuity of that generation.
