Every life is a story, and every story a journey. We are born, our story begins, and life happens. Each story develops over time from infancy through adulthood and from changes due to choices we make and many times by events over which we have no control. How our story ends is determined by how we react to those events. It is the life’s lessons and what we learn from them that help us grow, gain experience and wisdom, and move us along our journey. We decide if we are in charge of our destiny or if destiny is in charge of us. We drift aimlessly, or we paddle in the direction of our goals. Crooked Sidewalks will guide you as you tell your own story.

Unfortunately, the world got in the way when Jack decided to enlist in the US Navy. He was looking for a career and thought the military could teach him just that. He and Sarah wanted to pursue the American dream. The book follows Jack’s four years in the navy. Jack excels in the military and enjoyed the adventures. Yet he was desperately in love with Sarah Long. Jack’s childhood best friend and fellow sailor, Mike Farmer, has been Jack’s devoted friend. Mike is the outgoing one with a girl in every port. So unlike Jack in that way. The two of them work as a team. They have an extremely close brotherhood and always guard each other’s back. But for Sarah Long, it is hell on the home front. She is going to college and working a full-time job just to pass the time away. She struggles seeing friends get married and others dating, always staying faithful to the love of her life. But it’s hard when you only get one phone call on the weekend and have to deal with deployments lasting several months. About the time Jack’s four years are up, he volunteers for a dangerous mission in war-torn Lebanon in 1981 during the Lebanese Revolution. He comes home a different man than when he left four years ago. Sarah is trying to live with the new man that is fighting the ghosts that haunt him. She is searching for answers to their problem. Little did Jack Thorne know this was the beginning of the war on terror that the world has denied.

And a sinister voice calls to her from the sea… Lemaitre, the spirit of a brutal pirate, and captain of the Devil Ship, draws her to him. As more guests vanish from the island, Sara unearths a dark ritual, cast hundreds of years in the past. The soul of Lemaitre’s lover, Catherine, seeks a new body to occupy.

Imagine a middle-aged man with a solid career, beautiful wife and a waterfront home in sunny South Florida. Picture also, a gorgeous ophthalmologist with a beachfront condo, her own thriving practice and a bevy of rich friends sharing her life in the fast lane. You would have thought they had won life's lottery. Wanting for nothing, intoxicated by pleasure and devoid of pain. It's a natural assumption that would be wrong. Ugly intruders, like wantonness and jealousy, infect perfect worlds. Uninvited yet inevitable guests that fuel the furnaces of hate and stoke the fires of remorse. What transpires isn't pretty. Is it deserved? No one can say. Who can judge without walking in their shoes? The friction of life tends to callous souls and distort judgment. Without the slightest notion that they took a wrong turn down a dangerous path, they plod on, to ruination.
