Will Jeremy’s hidden secrets finally be revealed when old video storage devices are discovered…devices that work only with even more obsolete technology from the twentieth century…televisions.

A story of family secrets, long hidden clues, and a 200 year old quest for justice...

Throughout his professional career Paul Delahass has done what he can to find justice for those no longer able to do so for themselves. He now finds himself trying to do the same for two men who lived generations before his own.

After returning from a short trip to Espinola with his cousin, he feels certain they’re close to finding pieces of what Jeremy Delahass wanted them to. Like his cousin, Paul believes whatever it is, it isn’t good. When his mother discovers it completely by accident in her search for another piece of their heritage, it turns out to be worse than he or any of his cousins could have expected.

But what concerns him more is his suspicions that his mother is hiding something from him. Something he feels certain has to do with the secrets that Jeremy Delahass left behind for them to find. For the moment he’s more than willing to wait until she’s ready to tell him but he can’t help but wonder…and worry.

Like his cousin, Jase Delahass is determined to uncover all that Jeremy Delahass left behind for future generations to find. For him it’s no longer out of a sense of duty. It’s become personal. And knowing his cousins as well as he does, he knows that he’s not alone in feeling that way.

So far everything they’ve found has filled in gaps of information they hadn’t known about. He has a feeling that as the pieces become more difficult to locate it could only mean one thing. And as he prepares himself for what they might find next, he knew too that it wasn’t just enough to know there was a puzzle they were meant to put together. It was all about finding the pieces and where they led them next.

That he knew was what Jeremy expected of them.

In the middle of the twenty-first century Jeremy Delahass came from out of nowhere much as history decreed his ancestor did some two hundred years before him. It was his ancestors’ legacy, that of a man counted among those who fought in some of the harshest battles of the Revolutionary War for independence, that Jeremy waved like a beacon and eventually reached the pinnacle as his ancestor had been unable to.

But his dreams had never been those which would put him in the midst of the public eye. Jeremy had never been driven to right all wrongs, to speak the words of the voiceless, to be the one who pushed until promises made were kept. And he’d never felt the need to sit in the center of power. But he did all those things.

Jeremy Delahass did all that he wouldn’t have otherwise because of those who had dreamed of doing so, for those who did have visions of all that could be, who had been driven to right all the wrongs…but couldn’t. Their lives had been tragically and violently cut short.

In fulfilling what they were no longer able to, Jeremy Delahass became a hero to scores yet was also reviled by many who resented the changes he’d fought for. And he left behind a lasting heritage for all of those who would follow. And so it endured.

The Delahass Legacy.

Now two hundred years later…

Editorial Reviews

From the Author

I love writing about the unbreakable ties of family, the strength of friendship, and that no matter where we go in life there is nothing as important or as constant as home. Below are brief descriptions of each of my series.

The Hills of Burlington series...is the saga that tells the stories of family and friends from different generations who are drawn together in Burlington...all at a crossroad in their lives and searching for something they've not yet found. Together they persevere to reach common goals and in doing so, each find deep wells of strength, determination, resolve...amidst an unbreakable bond of family and friendship.
The Andersen Family Saga series...is the story of family...it is a story about joy and loss, hope and sorrow, betrayal and regrets, unconditional forgiveness, high expectations, and unwavering loyalty. It reminds that at the heart of who we are is the family we come from, the family who stand behind and beside us, and at times against us. And who we become isn't just a result of those still with us but those too that we have lost along the way. It is about the twist and turns every family deals with, the conflicts from within, and the never ending desire for acceptance and respect.
Accidental Mayor series...Have you ever said something you really wish you hadn't? Catherine Wittiken only meant to get a few laughs...not a few votes...worse...a whole lot more than a few votes. She really should have known better. Then on her first day in her new job as mayor, when Catherine didn't think things could get any worse than the dark and gloomy décor of her new office...she found out quickly she was wrong. There wasn't anything much worse than murder.
Home to Clare Harbor series...is the continuing story of family, friends, and total strangers who are drawn together by forces over which they have no control. They persevere and weather what many believe to be the storm of the century. Now they face a storm of another kind that could pose an even greater threat. As they draw on their own skills and ingenuity, they come to realize that together they can do what is needed whereas alone the challenge would be insurmountable.
The Delahass Legacy series...In the middle of the twenty-first century Jeremy Delahass came from out of nowhere much as history decreed his ancestor did some two hundred years before him. It was his legacy, that of a man counted among those who fought in some of the harshest battles of the Revolutionary War for Independence that Jeremy waved like a beacon and eventually reached the pinnacle as his ancestor had been unable to. Then, fulfilling the promises he made, Jeremy Delahass became a hero to scores yet was also reviled by many who resented the changes he fought for and achieved. Having done as he intended, Jeremy left behind a lasting heritage for all of those who would follow in the generations to come. And so it endured...The Delahass Legacy. Now two hundred years later...his descendants learn what drove Jeremy to do as he did...and what it means generations after his own.
Mae's Second Chance series...stories of the Engstrom family as they cope with the loss of a loved one that changes their lives forever and then within days experience a sudden and unexpected windfall. Now a single mother, Julie Engstrom knows one thing even when she feels uncertain about everything else...her children need something different. With the money from her recent lottery win, she does what she would never before have considered. She buys a ghost town. The town's name all on its own draws her, as little else is able to as she grieves the loss of her beloved husband. Mae's Second Chance.
Raindrops and Tears series...the ongoing story of four young women and their determination to maintain a level of normalcy in their lives even as what started as little more than a silly impractical dream takes an unexpected turn. As their names become known to all and the popularity of their style of music soars high in a world they are new to...they are unwavering in their resolve not to veer from what remains most important to them...family...friends...and home.
Return to Summit Falls series...Years ago, four young men left their hometown of Summit Falls ready to take on whatever the world had to throw at them. Now two of those men are returning home, searching for something different in life...the same reason they left all those years ago. But in all the years in between, they have learned that family is not only those you are born to...and that life and the things that are most important to us can change in a single day...a single moment...and nothing is ever the same again.
Heart of the Canyon series...Mallie Westin left her home in the canyon ten years ago because she believed she had no choice. Now with her children grown and on their own the choice is hers and she is returning to the home she has always loved. And when she returns, Mallie finds that while much has changed...some is still very much the same. The Heart of the Canyon series are stories about the strength of family, the endurance of friendships, and the unwavering and unconditional longing for home and all it means.
The Hope of Hyde Hills series...Two families meet at a time when change seems to be taking place almost daily as they learn how to treat the worsening symptoms of a disease their loved ones suffer from. These are stories of mothers and daughters and the families who surround and support them through good days and bad...and all the complications life can bring. As they take the journey they've found themselves on...they are reminded of all that is important in life...and what is not...and the difficult struggles that are sometimes inevitable to distinguish between the two.
Matchmaker Mom novella series...Molly Reardon has never made it a secret that she wants her oldest son to settle down and provide her with grandchildren...she'd like all her children to do the same thing but for now, he is her focus. Just a few days into her unannounced visit to his home in a large residential complex to find out what is holding things up she has her answer. And it doesn't take her long to decide what needs to be done about it...what Molly couldn't know was how much that decision would change her own life as well.
Lakeside Haven series...Some families come together in ways unlike what is considered the norm. For Jonas Brownstein, life in many ways didn't begin until his teenage years when he found his. It didn't take him long to learn the value of what he'd found...and to hold tight to it. Everything else that you do with your life...no matter how important and meaningful...is secondary.
Chocolate at Midnight series...the ongoing story of how life can change in the matter of moments and what we do when it does...Katherine Sutton knows well that there are so many moments in our lives when nothing is as it was only moments before...the suddenness of life's many difficult choices...the resilience that is learned...the friendships we discover...and the new beginnings they offer...

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Stories with hints of romance and mystery that touch on real-life issues…starting over and the challenges of new beginnings, whether it’s the jump into the thirty-something years…hitting forty…or finding fifty at your doorstep, children leaving home and sometimes coming back again, sibling relationships-no matter how old we are, mother and daughter (and sometimes sons) turmoil and reconciliations, the strength of family and strong friendships…and woven throughout are hope, forgiveness, kindness, and love.

I fell in love with books when I was in the 4th grade and my free period was spent volunteering in the school library. I read every Nancy Drew book there was to check out, discovered collections of myths and fairy tales from around the world, Louisa May Alcott and C.S. Lewis.

Right around the same time my father told me I could use his typewriter, but I also filled notebooks with stories. Thanks to my mother, who saved just about every single one of those notebooks, I still have them.

Several years ago my father gave me his typewriter…the same one we shared all those summers ago. Every time I look at it and the box filled with notebooks of handwritten stories and dreams, I remember the young 4th grade girl who was quietly encouraged to do what she loved.

As the story of this family unfolds, I find myself looking at today's world in comparison. I will hold on to obsolete equipment as long as I am alive, and maybe the private thoughts I have scribbled that, even now I am destroying. What I have experienced is not important in the grand scheme of life but we can't know about the future.
