Books with author P. David Pearson

A woman is found dead in a ditch. As the list of suspects grows, a town’s dirty secrets are revealed. It’s a cold winter evening and rain is sweeping in from the Atlantic when a young woman, having braved the weather to visit her sick mother in a remote part of Ireland, comes across an obstacle in the road. She clears the highway of stones from a damaged bridge only to see the body of a woman in a ditch. With no phone reception, she travels to the nearest police station to report what she has found. The local Garda waste no time in attending the scene of the crime. The woman is clearly dead, but it needs proper forensics to establish if foul play was the cause. In the meantime, is it not possible that the woman driver was in fact the culprit? She is clearly not telling the whole truth.A game of cat and mouse ensues when the inquiry is upgraded to a murder investigation. The trouble is, when the victim is recognised as a sex worker, there is no shortage of possible suspects. And few of them, if any, are willing to tell the truth to the police. It will take all of Galway detectives Hays and Lyons’ experience to cut through the web of lies and identify the killer in their midst.MURDER ON THE OLD BOG ROAD is the first in a series of atmospheric crime fiction titles featuring Detective Inspector Mick Hays and Detective Sergeant Maureen Lyons.

JFK and BOBBY, ARNIE and JACK...and David! opens with the riveting story of David Pearson's experience in the White House the night of November 22, 1963, as he was asked to help in the preparations for President John F. Kennedy's funeral. Pearson's role was to handle the press that fateful night, and he became a witness to history. The book has two parts: it describes Pearson's early life in Miami, and then tells the story of his unusual PR career. This includes his experiences in the Kennedy and Johnson Administrations, as well as a series of interesting vignettes of his dealings with a number of sports celebrities, mainly in the game of golf. To name a few: Joe DiMaggio, Ted Williams, Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, Chi Chi Rodriguez, Pete Dye, and Robert Trent Jones. About the Author David Pearson is a native of Miami, Florida. His family settled there in the 1920s and '30s. His father Dr. Colquitt Pearson was the city's first anesthesiologist. He graduated from Emory University, worked for UPI, and became the first Vice President for Public Relations at Sea Pines on Hilton Head Island. The author then spent two years in Washington as Deputy Information Director of the Peace Corps under Sargent Shriver and as Assistant Director of the Community Relations Service under LeRoy Collins. Pearson opened his public relations firm in Miami in 1966, with Laurance Rockefeller's Caribbean resorts as his first client. Although he has published a number of articles on golf course architecture, his firm's national reputation is primarily based on representing high quality resort and club communities throughout the Americas. In May of 2016, Pearson and his wife Anne moved to Sea Pines on Hilton Head Island, where they spent the first years of their marriage.

Twins Peter and Josh had no idea they were being watched. They also had no idea that their strange uncle belonged to another world, a world of vampires, strange beasts and powerful enchantments. They were, so they thought, perfectly ordinary boys, but once connected to Errin they became aware of their own powers and their destiny. Nothing was straightforward any more. The distinction between good and evil was not always as clear as either of them would have imagined. Vampires were not necessarily bad, and the most appealing creatures were not necessarily good, but the decisions they made were critical: the fate of an entire world depended on them.

Peter and Josh have grown up, oblivious to their adventures in Errin, which were wiped from their minds by the hologram of Zemelchus – or whoever was controlling the Orb of Zemelchus and creating the hologram of Zemelchus - who thought it best that the two boys returned to a normal life on Earth.That was years ago. Now, there is a crisis in Errin and Earth. The evil vampire, Xxavorio is on Earth and unable to return. Although, on Peter and Josh’s last visit to Errin, The Darkness had been destroyed, the evil had to go somewhere and it is wreaking havoc that might lead to the destruction not only of Errin but also of Earth.On Errin, the beautiful, vegetarian vampire girl, Khrull, has also grown up, and is busy with the fight against evil. Peter and Josh slowly recover their memories of Errin, but so much has changed that Peter no longer knows who he can trust. Peter might be a Guardian of Errin with remarkable powers that have been hidden all these year, but will it be enough?
