About the Book

Thirteen-year-old Jack "Butcher" Bucher is bruised and beaten following the Tepeyac game, yet he celebrates his achievements and the banishment of Lunatic Luna. He also struggles with his immature emotions and his inability to voice his love for Ada, the girl of his "dream." Again, Zeph comes to Jack's rescue and assists him in overcoming the anguish and terror of boy/girl relationships. A new puppy comes into Jack's life, and in an attempt to buy Jack's love, William offers to take him on a luxurious Hawaiian vacation. Jack is wary of his father's motivations. In the family battles that result, it becomes apparent Beth is lost in her fantasy world, and her own son sees realities more clearly. On the brighter side, Ada and Jack's budding love begins to blossom, even though they're facing a long summer apart. Jack graduates from middle school with some painful goodbyes to his friends and Ada for the summer. July Fourth arrives with Jack passing more rites into manhood like learning to drive a car. Then he meets Fiasco, Mary's new horse. The monstrous brute is meaner than the rattler that tried to mate with the gardening hose. Jack comes away from the riding club experience disgusted by animal cruelty and the unjust plight of the peons versus the blue bloods. The inevitable happens after Jack plays a real game of cops and robbers. He suffers a tragic loss. His mental torment becomes so great that Zeph intervenes and takes Jack back to experience three of his previous lives. It's an experience that changes Jack's life and way of thinking forever.
About the Author: A famous quote from motivational author Napoleon Hill once hung in the football locker room at Purdue University that read, "Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve." I don't know if that quote helped us win any football games, but it inspired me to live my dreams. Since I was a young American teen growing up in Mexico City, I got lost in the books I read and daydreamed of the stories I'd write. It was through the loving support of my hardworking wife of nearly thirty years that I realized my dream of becoming a writer. School can teach us the basics of life. Sports can teach us loyalty, camaraderie, and hard work, but only experience can teach us the harsh realities, humor, and amiable personalities that make up a good story. My stories involve believable characters battling desperate odds in nonstop action to achieve personal goals. These characters struggle against their inner demons and faults as they learn to grow, to love, and to sacrifice for the good of all. Oh, and let's not forget the dogs. They're characters, too, and any good story has to involve man's best friend. My goal is that my stories will help a weary reader relax, forget their troubles, and escape to a vivid, exotic world of adventure that's never without its humor. My hope is that readers will love and cheer for the good guys, boo and hiss at the bad ones, and maybe come away with something for themselves when it's over. So please join me and meet characters like Jack Bucher, a teen struggling to grow up in a foreign land with the help of a spirit mentor. Meet Global Inspector Burt Campbell as he battles a corrupt military and science gone bad to save the futuristic world from destruction. Fight alongside Rex Bana as he combats serial killers and organized crime while confronting his own issues with morality. "Children dream at any age." Join in these dreams and become a believer.
