Forensic expert "Cat" Ferry has a stellar reputation until a panic attack paralyzes her at a New Orleans murder scene. Praying the attack is a one-time event, she continues working, but when the same killer strikes again -- raising fears that a serial killer is at large -- Cat blacks out over the victim's mutilated corpse. Suspended from the FBI task force, Cat returns to her hometown of Natchez, Mississippi, to regroup. Though her colleagues know her as a world-class forensic odontologist, Cat lives a secret life. Plagued by nightmares, and deeply involved with a married homicide detective, Cat holds herself together with iron nerves and alcohol, using her work as a substitute for life. But her family's secluded antebellum estate provides no sanctuary. When some of Cat's forensic chemicals are spilled in her childhood bedroom, two bloody footprints are revealed. This discovery sets in motion a quest to piece together Cat's past -- buried memories that could tie her father's murder to the grisly deaths occurring in New Orleans in the present. For only by finding this remorseless killer can Cat save her sanity -- and her life.

Don’t read this manuscript if you expect to find a plot filled with intrigue, mystery, espionage, murder, or anything else for that matter, because my intention at the onset of this writing was to document the various holidays we celebrate in the United States and to explain why I like each one or why I don’t.I’m just a kid – a ten year old boy – and I have my own reasons why I like specific holidays, or in some cases, why I don’t like ‘em. Probably one of the most predominant reasons for liking certain holidays is whether I get out of school or not. But there are other reasons.You may not agree with my way of thinking, but at least, after reading this short narrative, I’m sure you’ll find that you have a better understanding of the origins of some of our holidays, and if nothing else, will have a better understanding of what they mean to the average fourth grader.If not, I failed.But anyway, Happy Holi-Daze!This book is a work of fiction. The characters, events, and places portrayed in this book are products of the author’s imagination and are fictitious or are used fictitiously.
