This was a very informative and interesting book. Even though it was mostly fiction, the author pointed out a great deal of medical fraud that does happen in that field. The storyline was interesting and intriguing of how the pro" Read more of this review » |

"This author knows how to use descriptive language to place the reader right in the scene, whether it’s the fragrant scent of after dinner wine in the softly glowing light of a crackling fireplace or the creak of leather furniture and hallway flooring"

"Love how Patricia puts the pieces together to figure out what is going on. I have to admit when I start reading any of Alan's stories I have a hard time putting them down. I won't ruin the plot for you but I can guarantee there are lots of twists.

Hi Alan, thanks for the friend request. Where can I find info on your books? I grew up in Tennessee and had the opprtunity to visit Kiawah Island many hears ago. Passed thru Savannah at that time. Love the area!
This wonderful new day is chock full of opportunity. It's sunny and warm. The birds are chirping, and the lawn is greening nicely. Let's ROCK this day.
When I think I can do something better with a scene, I do it. I want to give you my best in every segment of each of my books.
The quality of out thoughts is much more important than the quantity of them.
Adversity reveals character. I am not so much what happens to me, as I am how I react to what happens.
Rain is as much a part of life as is sunshine. Remember that without rain there'd be no rainbows, and we'd all live in a desert.

Honesty should begin with self-honesty and, when extended to others, it should be engaged in with love and kindness.

Hi Alan,Thanks for sending a friend request to this fellow crime writer!
thanks for the friend's request. I'm looking forward to getting to know you and checking out your books.
If you want a better life smile more often, laugh a lot more, dream bigger, be more positive, and look much more closely at all the blessings you have. Do these simple things and you will be transformed.
It's a new day with new hopes and new energy. Make it a day worth remembering.
It's a new day, and it's full of wonderful opportunities. Once again it's time to chase your dreams. May your day overflow with purpose and joy.
Your experiences are like a secret garden. If you pick good experiences and cultivate them well you can transform your life.
To improve your life change your thinking and make better decisions. And, if you don't like the course you're on, chart a new one. Have a bountiful day.
When I align what I do with what I think and say, I'm much happier.
