The Mystery of Shadow Lake 
This ebook by author Loretta Montambo is a murder mystery, with some supernatural elements. It takes place in a small fictional town near the north woods of Michigan Two girls disappear and the story focuses on solving the crime with a surprising outcome.

Loretta Montambo says, "I like to paint landscape, play music and write. I play the guitar and piano." When asked how she got started she thought for a moment before adding, "I have always enjoyed telling stories, then, I thought why not write them? Everyone enjoys a good story. I hope to bring enjoyment to my readers. I also write poetry in my spare time. I really like writing. I grew up in the North, in the USA. It gets cold here and the winters are long, writing can also be a great pass-time as we wait for spring."

A Mormon Massacre by Joseph M. Rinaldo


This modern-day novel is based on the actual massacre of innocent Americans by Mormon zealots in the Utah Territory. In present-day Nashville, Tennessee, Jeremiah grows up with a prejudice against the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for the murders in 1857 of his ancestors at Mountain Meadows. Until the 1995 Oklahoma City attack, this was the most deadly act of terrorism against US citizens. 

Jeremiah’s hatred multiplies when his father, Luke, informs him that his mother suffered abuse at the hands of her Mormon husband in a previous marriage. Due to his father’s association with the Mormon Victim’s Action Committee, Jeremiah gets an opportunity to expose the current wide-spread and Church-accepted practice of abusing women. With his father’s encouragement and the knowledge of his mother’s horrific experience, Jeremiah accepts M-VAC’s offer to train and insert him into an LDS community in hopes of collecting evidence to prosecute the abusers. Jeremiah’s objective broadens when he sees all the atrocities committed by Mormon zealots. Now he wants to expose the entire Church as a violent and dangerous fraud.

Author Rinaldo lives currently in Nashville, Tennessee. From this most American of southern cities he writes about the violent activities of a Mormon sect in A MORMON MASSACRE, the internal turmoil in the CIA in A SPY AT HOME, and about deadly gangs in HAZARDOUS CHOICES. You've probably heard that authors write what they know. Think it's true?

Available on Amazon as ebook or as paperback.

Meet Author Gary Goldstein

Jew in Jail,  Gary Goldstein (CreateSpace, 2010)

Gary Goldstein received a Bachelor of Arts degree in journalism from Long Island University and worked as a broadcast associate, researcher and assistant producer for two major television networks. As an alumni member of the Coney Island Hospital Chemical Dependency Program, Goldstein is currently a motivational speaker and hopes to serve as a shining example of how to overcome one’s negative past.

JEW IN JAIL "is the true story of the nearly six years that I spent incarcerated in various correctional facilities throughout the state of New York. It deals with my attempts at recovery from past addictions to alcohol, drugs and gambling, as well as my efforts to turn my life around in hopes of becoming a solid citizen and successful member of society upon my release. In addition, my book also provides insight into how I, as a minority in prison, was forced to fend for myself against all of the mistreatment at the hands of the powers that be from the Department Of Correctional Services in this "world within the real world," as well as the daily grind of doing time with hardened criminals, many of whom I felt no close connection to, all the while continuing to fight for the true justice I strongly felt I wasn't afforded during my lower court proceedings."

A perfect addition to collections of social science, prisons and prisoners, criminal justice, biography, drug addiction and recovery, and social justice.
