BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Jonathan Kellerman's Victims. A second-rate actor is found mutilated in a car trunk. Then a psychologist at a Los Angeles hospital for the criminally insane is murdered in a similar grisly fashion. Suddenly the incoherent ramblings of an inmate at the presumably secure institution begin to make chilling sense—they are, in fact, horrifying predictions. Yet how can a barely functional psychotic locked behind asylum walls possibly know such vivid details of crimes committed in the outside world? Drawn into a labyrinth of secrets, revenge, sex, and manipulation, Dr. Alex Delaware and Detective Milo Sturgis set out to unlock this enigma and put an end to the brutal killings—before the madman predicts their own demise. . . .

"I Have a Green Monster Who Lives in My Brain" is a picture book to help young children with stress, fear and anxiety. It is a fun rhyming book which gives children the tools to overcome their fears. Emma's Story - Emma is our granddaughter and suffered from anxiety last year. With the help of a good counselor she has been working to overcome her fears and inspired us to write this story. Emma learned to fight the fears (green monster) by physically attacking the fears as we wrote in this book. Some of our Christian friends found the book to be a little too violent, so we also wrote a Christian version based on trust in God to overcome the fear also available on Amazon named "I Have A Green Monster Who Lives In My Brain - The Christian Answer." The therapists we have talked to love the concept of this book and believe children need a strong approach to "fight the monster". Our Christian friends love the concept of trusting God with our fears. Which way do you lean?
