Criminal Intent traces the exploits of a cunning, criminal mind. Stewart Lawrence’s extraordinary career begins at Lakewood Downs, a harness racing track, where he conspires with several drivers to fix races. Dazzled by initial success, Lawrence’s winnings prompt even greater risks.

But Lawrence’s greatest gamble hinges on achieving his most cherished goal, the affections of Lisa Armstrong, who initially, remains ignorant of her paramour’s dangerous dual existence, and who herself harbors deep secrets that will soon involve Lawrence. A man compelled to live on the edge, he gambles for the highest stakes, both at the racetrack and for the love of his dreams. Hounded by goons who want to collect on past gambling debts, and frustrated by the discovery of his race fixes, he turns to bank robbery. A minor slip up during a routine sales call leads to Lawrence’s ultimate arrest.

In prison, still filled with lust and greed, he formulates schemes and assembles members of what will become the most professional gang of bank robbers in the annals of criminal justice.

    Bloodless is a riveting novel about the dark side of an industry, which controls the most precious fluid on earth — blood. Corruption and cover-ups inside the walls of a secret, not-for-profit, tax-sheltered blood banking industry leave you breathless. It is a story you won't want to believe, but in the end, it will leave you repeating, "Could any of this be possible?"

    Blood banks are perceived by the public as "Houses of Noble Causes." Fifteen million pints of blood are collected each year because of emotional appeals that have been carefully test-marketed to grab the heart strings of a giving and willing donor public. Gerald Thomas Preston, executive director and Dr. Benjamin Quinn Silvers, medical director, by board decree are forced to share co-director positions at Hamilton Regional Blood Center. Bitter enemies, their individual battles for power and financial greed establish an environment that leads to negligence in the center's blood supply and a cover-up that result in the death of an innocent blood recipient. The victim, who receives the AIDS virus, sues the blood bank and finds herself facing the full might of a powerful industry that will stop at nothing to protect their secret world and their pocketbooks. Bloodless is a book you will never forget.

    A trio of cold-blooded murders and a case that must be won put morality and ethics in question. J. Bradley Crawford, a criminal attorney, is hired to defend Kenny Froemmer, charged with assault.

    Curtis and Alice Waverly Froemmer are impressed with Brad; they promise most if not all of their legal business upon an acquittal. If he wins this case, Brad will net an additional six hundred thousand dollars per year with a percentage cut of the Froemmer business with totals of over a million dollars annually. To an attorney who had agonized over his monthly expenditures, the temptation prompted a fateful decision. An infantry tour of Viet Nam taught Brad Crawford to kill coldly and efficiently. To guarantee acquittal, the lawyer kills three witnesses to the assault. His client is now charged with the murders that the attorney has committed. Brad plans the murders for a Saturday night when the Froemmers host a party at their mansion. He purposely implicates the Froemmer's son, Kenny, yet giving him an airtight alibi. The plan should leave the police with three unsolvable crimes. 

    Crawford faces a national media trial as a decided underdog. He appears confident in public, but the pressure is enormous.

    The trial pits an attorney who must win against an unseasoned prosecutor. The trial judge is brilliant with a salty sense of humor who keeps the trial moving at a fast pace. A chilling novel.

Reviews

    "NT GILTY a guaranteed page-turner, the novel asks what we've all been pondering: How far will a defense attorney go to acquit his client and promote himself. . . talk about suspense! it's almost impossible to put the book down, as one wonders if and how justice will be served."

    Murdock McCabe, formerly an FBI agent, had been shaken by his wife's death two years earlier. She had been kidnapped, apparently to dissuade him from testifying in a case and was killed in an FBI rescue attempt. Murdock suspects she had been killed intentionally by a fellow agent, and that FBI superiors were involved in a cover-up. Murdock's abiding cynicism attacked his value system and diminished his capacity to believe in anyone or anything — God or man.

    Employed by Veritus International, Murdock investigates the murder of a curious Bavarian monk. He must sift through a fog of improbable circumstances in order to solve the crime. He meets a wealthy Chilean businessman, a baron involved in dark political intrigue, an enigmatic abbot of a monastery, a high official of the Bavarian State Police, a helpful retired philosophy professor from Oregon, a shadowy woman of intrigue who hangs out in a lesbian bar in Munich, a cheeky Russian émigré opportunist in Cypress, and Sasha who has no redeeming character.

    "Inside is a body of what had been a man, before a bullet had pierced his heart. When that body had contained a mind, it was the mind of a monk, albeit an unusual one. He had been called Brother Stephen. He is dead because there are people who can no longer suffer him to live. They have great power. And he, like most of us, was incredibly easy to kill."

    "The aliens must know that energy equals mass times the velocity of light squared. I inserted the message into the transceiver with an instruction to repeat it once every sixty seconds for five minutes and then wait thirty minutes for a reply."

    Congressman Robin Andrews faces stark choices: to save the world or to allow the obliteration of the human race. He discovers a Russian village totally wiped out by a disease of unknown origins. America also faces the destruction of a small town outside of Pittsburgh, the cause also unknown. Can the mindless genocide perpetrated by some unidentified agent be halted before the whole world perishes?

     Albert Kasdan, a brilliant scientist and twin brother of world-famous chess grand master Anton Pomerov, befriends Robin and shares his knowledge about a plague more deadly than any that had previously ravaged the world. Those with the “Mark of Barabbas” have a natural immunity to this plague, a divine judgment on the world for its sins. Only the rediscovery of a sacred water supply somewhere in the Holy Land can save the rest of the world.

     Jan Lipski, a young doctor and concentration camp inmate at Auschwitz, has been forced to work with Hans Hoffmann, an evil Nazi doctor involved in inhuman medical experiments. During the last days of the war Lipski helps a group of twin boys to escape certain death. Lipski also escapes with a sacred copy of The Thirteen Commandments; Hoffmann eludes capture on the last German U-boat.

     Andrews studies the Bible code and reads The Thirteen Commandments, trying to make sense of the plague that has now reached Pennsylvania. No one can explain what happened.
     While searching Kasdan’s computer, Andrews at last receives what he believes to be a divine message. He travels to the Masada in Israel where he discovers the healing waters.

Reviews

    “In the Realm of Eden is an extraordinary suspenseful page turner by an author who possesses an unusual but insightful understanding of the human condition. The challenge for readers will be to keep from putting it down before they reach the startling and totally unexpected ending. A really clever novel from a writer with vision! This is a thriller and should be a major motion picture.”

    “Bob Emery’s Realm of Eden is full of taut excitement and a wonderful storyline; it makes for a fabulous read. I could not put it down until it was finished. I would look for the next volume in this hopefully serial adventure. If I published books instead of media, I’d have jumped on this great novel.”
