About Jacob’s Justice:
It’s 1642, and England is tearing itself apart. King against Parliament, King against religion, Parliament and Puritans against the King, politics and power heading for disaster.
Twenty-three year-old Jacob Emerick, the youngest son of the Merchants Emerick, shipping owners, and their legal man, is sent on a lawyer’s mission to save the family’s gold and ships. He leaves cosmopolitan London for the narrow minded small Puritan town in Kent, where he must negotiate with the aristocratic Fowke family who want their loan paid back now, despite what the legal agreement says. The Fowkes want to give the money to the King. Corrupt King Charles wants the family’s fortune, and loyalists to the King will do anything to help their despot. The extremist Puritans want the money and the Emerick ships too. Neither party cares how they get hold of the money and ships and Jacob is in the middle.
His journey barely begun, at a resting place on the trail Jacob finds the dead body of the Fowke lawyer with whom he was to work. It’s a plain case of murder, and Jacob becomes the prime suspect. Jacob has to free himself from that charge, and fend off the treachery of Lady Fowke, staunch supporter of the King, as well as the attempts of bigoted Puritans to take control of the Emerick ships.
Jacob navigates through the attentions of other loyalist thugs who ravage and murder, and the bigoted Puritans, who are just as determined to use his family’s gold. In a few short months Jacob sheds the easy bravado of a privileged young man to become a powerful fighter for justice, and his own man hoping for peace.

About Ancient Ways: The Roots of Religion:
“An insightful and well-considered concept – the idea of a connective thread of monotheistic faith throughout the history of mankind is most compelling!” Editorial: -Historian Gretchen Ames
“In order to enjoy this book, you may have to suspend current beliefs, since some of the concepts may seem quite foreign at first. What if monotheism always existed, and revelations were given to all human forms. There are hints to that effect!”
Too often we tweak religion to reflect our personal thoughts rather than dealing directly with the Word of God. Monotheism, today is represented by at least nine living faiths yet praying to God alone is not enough for many. Instead we pray to Prophets, angels, saints, ancestors, deities, even the universe.
This creates a chain of “Paths” and “Ways” which become stained, over time, by human desires for control and material benefits. And as darkness and materialism overtake one Faith, another is born, through the intervention of the Holy Spirit, which is clothed in a different form, with a new name, and very familiar teachings.
Like the Tree of Life, monotheism can be visualized as a chain linking prehistory and history, entwined with human additions, wisps, and twists that produce an undulating, ultimate Yin and Yang. This constant interaction of complementary, as well as conflicting, forces and energies, exhibits both organic unity and dynamism even war. Those who suspect there is a unified core of basic beliefs should enjoy Ancient Ways. Hopefully you will find precious gems to take with you.
