Taylor McFadden is willing to go against any monster thrown at him. But something Niki threw at him has got him off his game.  Niki must build a consultant team to figure out if she has a problem with another company.  But will Dr. Salinger Jacobs of Heavy Metal take her call? Does she have the clout to get him to believe her if he picks up the phone?  There is a hot-potato new hire at McFadden's Mechs, and no one wants to 'fess up to Niki.

The rest of his problems have to do with alien monsters wanting to eat him.

Tristram's Treasures

Summary

I have created this artistic expression of a storybook version of the Coffin family legacy, with original painting collages with vintage photos into illustrations. This is the true story of the seafaring Coffin Family Legacy, connecting their historical homes, historical museums, and events, beginning in Normandy, France. The Norman Coffins lived in possession of Chateau Cortiton in 1066, which still stands today. After migrating to England with William the Conquerer in the 1200s, Sir Richard Coffin built Portledge Manor in Devonshire, England, also still standing today.  In 1642, Tristram Coffin Sr. of Devonshire, England, with his family, left a civil war and was among the first of the race that settled in America. Living alternatively in the colony of Massachusetts, he arranged for the purchase of Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard by a company he organized of nine men on July 2, 1659.  The forth son of Tristram Coffin Sr. was John Tristram Coffin, who was the first of the Coffins to take up residence on Martha's Vineyard was a notable blacksmith and considerable owner of real estate. My family line is directly linked to John Coffin. He died on September 11, 1711, leaving the oldest headstone on Martha's Vineyard.  Continuing is the story of Abigail Starbuck Coffin, doctor/midwife. She was a daughter of the Mormon Pioneers caught in the western swirl of migration.  Another connection is automobile magnate Howard E. Coffin, the father of standardization, predecessor of United Airlines, a prince of Detroit, and the king of the Georgia Coast. He shared in the visionary influence of his ancestors from Nantucket Island in the 1600s and thus extended Tristram Coffin's legacy to the southeastern Atlantic coast of Georgia. In this way, the original owners of Nantucket Island, Martha's Vineyard, and Sea Island, Georgia, connect over 300 years just one of many Coffin Connections.  To me, my ancestors are timeless. They are like a rare and treasured collection of antiques from a time gone by. They could be called, "Tristram's Treasures."  Time can be eerie, especially when our ancestors have left behind so many indelible footprints all throughout American history. It's as though a part of them will never really be gone and that has inspired me to create a special storybook where they all belong, with their historical homes, museums, famous and epic stories, along with their outstanding achievements, monuments, and headstones, that even time can never erase.  I invite you, the listener, through my original collages of artwork to follow me on this epic journey as we look at the Coffin family legacy, and the many connections they share throughout American history.  PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Or will she uncover the whole truth and put it out for everyone to see? Will she even live to type up a report? Both Taylor and Niki are in hot water, but for different reasons. Taylor works to keep his business functioning, his employees safe, and wondering if he is going to be able to launder a few million in cash with a reporter sniffing around.

For Taylor McFadden, his future is now caught between one woman he knows he should stay away from, and another that might just send him off the deep end if he doesn't.

Summary

Eddie Hunter's pretty happy with his stay in Light Online so far. Even with a major raid coming up, he's still making progress on getting his castle built. His business ventures in the game are performing admirably, and the testing he's been doing has recently been going quite well. With other settlements to create, a forest elf town to find, a settlement quest still to finish, and the king's quest beyond that, Eddie's staying busy. Unfortunately the NPCs in the game are far too much like real people, so treachery and backstabbing are also within their grasp.
