Review: Nothing But The Truth - Dick Lehr - January 2019 This book grabbed my attention from the cover as it was amazing and eye-catching with the newspapers. This book turned out to be based on a true event that happened in 1988 in Boston. On that fateful night in August, a 12-year-old girl was sitting on her mailbox talking to her friends when she was shot three times by stray bullets as she was caught up in a gang turf war. A 22-year-old guy was convicted of the murder, but years later it turned out that he was, in fact, innocent and just because he supposedly fit the bill and they needed a conviction - it was pinned on this guy and no-one else was investigated as a suspect. In 2003, new evidence was presented and it was determined that the guy arrested for the case was as he had said innocently after all. In Nothing But the Truth, the guy accused of killing a young girl is Trell's father. She visits him every week in prison and is determined to set him fre...

I'm so excited to take part in Sharon Cairns Mann's Release Day Launch for TESSERAE: A Mosaic of Story! Check out the book below, and be sure to enter the giveaway!   TESSERAE is a masterful collection of short stories, most of which are set in southern Colorado. Its theme of isolation; a longing for home; a longing to belong, is accentuated by the setting of isolated, wind-swept high desert. From the misguided romantic hopes of a cowboy, to the poignant tale of a misfit orphan coming to terms with her losses and the unwelcome-but-longed-for grace that settles over her life, this book is filled with relationally quirky, flawed, and authentic characters. Gritty, real, humorous.
