ReSet
Matthew Sterling made the discovery of a lifetime.
A pill that resets a person to perfect health. Cancer, paralysis, Alzheimer’s. No matter the condition, Matthew’s miracle drug cures it. Instead of using it for the benefit of humanity, embittered Matthew capitalizes on people’s desperation so he can become the wealthiest person in the world.
Covering Matthew’s meteoric rise and the stories of three people seeking a once-impossible remedy, ReSet shows the tremendous good and unfathomable bad that a cure-all pill has on society.
Review of ReSet
“This is a gripping character-driven tale. Severson infuses political intrigue and social commentary into an absorbing narrative that offers readers a glimpse into the psyche of a billionaire sociopath who thrives on chaos.”
The Estate Sale
Theodore O’Connor lived an ordinary life.
Born and raised in Chicago’s South Side, he worked for a living to support a wife and son. He also experienced the extraordinary highs and lows that come with an ordinary life. Joyful celebrations and painful heartbreak. Laughter from mundane conversations and the grief of loss.
At the end of his life, strangers thumb through his collection of things – ordinary items people accumulate over more than eight decades. Told through the life-changing events associated with some of his most common items, the Estate Sale tells the story of how painfully beautiful life can be.
Review of the Estate Sale
The Estate Sale is a page turner, a beautiful story about good, ordinary people leading good ordinary lives that touches us deeply. There is conflict, there is sadness, there is humor, and there is joy. Readers will experience memories of their own past history, especially if they are familiar with Chicago. You will long remember this book!
Cody
Cody is a crime novel that is upfront about who-done-it: 10-year-old Cody Jenkins gruesomely shot and killed his abusive father in the middle of the night. With the smell of smoke still in the bedroom, good-hearted Sheriff Cremble is forced to quickly decide what to do. He chooses to hide the truth.
