Sheriff Enoch Hardy is a man with a reputation. He is known all around as an honest, ethical lawman and a convicted man of faith. However, the death of a young boy from a failed faith healing causes Enoch to question his own convictions about how people practice religion.

While conducting a spiritually challenging investigation, Enoch begins to realize that the people responsible for the boy's death may be ready and more than willing to take their transgressions a step further. When violence begins to find the Sheriff's friends and loved ones, he realizes it is up to him to bring the tense situation to an end.

This is the first collaborative work by the father and son writing team of Michael E. and D.E. LaRiviere.

Rampage is an Enoch Hardy action mystery involving the dark world of the criminal mind and exploration of the recesses of the equally dark sociopathic world of unspeakable behavior. As the third book in the series, this sequel combines three subplots into one plot or storyline. All three sinister tales are riveting in intensity, excitement, and action. All three plumb the depths of criminal sociopaths, unrestrained evil, and unbridled violence.
 
To say that we live in perilous or dangerous times may be an understatement. Violence in the Middle East, on the streets of America, in schools, and in homes is commonplace. Unspeakable acts are continually perpetrated on victims of all ages.

What was spoken in shameful whispers in bygone days is today depicted in soap operas, prime-time television, movies, and played out in hand-held computer gaming devices. Bullying, abuse against children, parents, and the aged, drive-by shootings, infant murder, and identity theft are commonplace today.

Rampage deals with the more perplexing issues of our time in the areas of rape, murder, torture, and espionage. Animal people do walk among us. They leave in their wake, damaged lives and mass collateral destruction.

This adventure takes place in two time periods. The Indian Wars of the Colonial era and present times. The two time frames meet in the ancestory of the main characters. The journey back in time, and the efforts to keep the American Indian heritage alive provide an enchanting vision of historical realities through the eyes and mind of two Native American maidens, and their Cherokee mentors.

This colorful and sensitive story will bring history to life in an honest and forthright manner.It will also introduce a new and somewhat heartbreaking trend that has given rise to a dedicated group of special people who sacrifice their time and resources to stand for those who cannot stand for themselves --the Patriot Guard Riders.

Native Americans represent a people who have suffered unspeakable hardships and atrocities since their land, America, first came up for grabs as something to be divided among anyone strong enough to take it away from them. These were the first people to be in harmony with nature and realize the need to maintain the delicate balance required to provide a good life for all mankind. Their contributions to our world are too numerous to list, and the beauty of their culture permeates the entire history of our country.

The enlightened and educated ones of our generation seem to think they have a lock on the spiritual world and understand how it works. No they don’t. The Native American peoples of this land know about the interrelationship of animals, plants, men, and Mother Earth. They are a simple and truly uncomplicated society which has a deep respect for the land and for the sacredness of life.

If you believe that modern man with his technology has respect for life, perhaps you should look around at the number of animals hunted out of sport, or for trophies, or at the unprecedented killing of innocents in our time out of sheer convenience. Cherokee Mounds is an unusual place, with an unusual population, with unusual potential, powers and possibilities. The townspeople are grounded in the spiritual forces that make up the very ground, buildings, atmosphere, fields and forests. They are bonded together in a fellowship so strong that nothing can break it, not even death itself.

By the way, I have come to grips with the fact that death is a friend, not to be feared. May the Great Spirit smile on you and may you know peace in your life. Chief Great Bear, of the Mountain Cherokee Eagle Clan

The third in the series of Nate and Dixie adventures, Demon Rising is a novel based in the time period just prior to the second coming of Jesus Christ. Parts of the book take place in Hell, while Tinian, Saipan, Auschwitz and Gettysburg are visited during the height of their infamy. These trips attempt to make real the surreal, comprehensible the incomprehensible, and tangible the spiritual so that it could all become a valid experience in an invalid world. This work is partially based on shifting realities and a different perspective concerning time and how time works.

This book contains a journey between dimensions; a presentation of truth about lies and liars; and a portrayal of lethal ugliness wrapped in fatal beauty. All these are personified by beings that so twisted their original God given designs and responsibilities that they were put away in a place from which there is no escape until the prescribed time of their release.

Nathan Daniel Beale is a fundamentally solid theologian, researcher, adventurer, and author with a special calling and seal of divine authority. He holds an earned doctorate in Theology. Nate is being sent out to help develop the weapon of truth and light to fight the satanic weapon of deceit and darkness that has become the scourge of the Church of our Lord, Jesus Christ. Doctor Beale has been commissioned to undertake a project, code named, “Wake-Up Call.”
