Steve loves mysteries, but when odd things begin happening and strange people start threatening him, Steve wonders whether this is part of his grandfather's plan. Is this still a simple puzzle, or is something far more sinister going on?In this thrilling prequel to Lost Cause and Broken Arrow, the history- and mystery-loving Steve ends up in remote northern Ontario.

The Caught in Conflict Collection is an imprint of fast-paced, historically accurate, morally-complex quick reads for Adults and Teens. They can be read in any order.Nate MacGregor knows he must fight for his Southern homeland in the coming Civil War, but for his cousin Walt in Canada West it's not so simple. Walt knows slavery's wrong but, as the tensions increase and war breaks out, the danger of Britain, and Canada, being sucked into the conflict on the side of the Confederacy increases. The two cousins are linked by Sunday, an escaped slave who is using the Underground Railroad to escape from Nate's plantation and get to Canada. As the war gathers momentum, Walt, Nate and Sunday are drawn farther and farther in, until they arrive at a shattering conclusion during the battle of Shiloh. "…action-filled, tightly written prose. Realistic battle scenes illustrate the senselessness of war…the story offers a fresh take on the conflict - the idea of Canada as refuge for fugitive slaves and the irony of how it was nearly drawn into the war on the side of the South."- Albany Public Library, NYWilson "…makes sure that each character is well-rounded, with interesting sides to tell in the story…Easy to read, yet based on historical facts, this book takes the Civil War period in history from a dry read based on statistics, to a real situation being played out on both sides of the 49th Parallel. The impassioned beliefs and actions of people on both sides of the conflict captures the interest and makes the horrors of war real.It was so well-written that I was drawn in immediately, and I usually avoid anything to do with war…History can be interesting."-Susan Miller, Resource Links"Wilson takes a hard look at war and its consequences through the eyes of young protagonists…(he) provides his usual challenge to black-and-white thinking, prodding readers to think critically. Heroes are hard to come by in this historical fiction, and ethical choices are as difficult to determine as they are to make."-Quill & Quire

Set in our near future, the fear of global warming and our own rapidly advancing technologies spark the first and only global uprising. fuelled and made possible by social media, the Returner movement sets about plunging the entire globe back to a pre-industrial age. Five years on from the uprising only shadows of the old world are left with anything resembling infrastructure being destroyed by the ever more powerful Returners, who rule with increasing brutality. For five long years, every attempt to resist their rule have been quashed with merciless force, but when a small village in the newly formed marshes of East Anglia stand and fight in the face of starvation, the murky battle line are drawn. This is a fast paced action adventure from the 'Rib Bone Jack' author, offering an alternative suggestion as to where the human race might be heading. Don't expect ray guns and space age technology, everything about this book has a rural and historic feel, in keeping with the author's preferred genre.
