Paranormal Thriller Jaded Visions by first time author TL Jones

by MarDeck on Jun.01, 2010, under Books

TL Jones held a book signing this past weekend in Gun Barrel City. Considering we have worked together in law enforcement and most likely have responded to some of the same calls I like to think of her as a sister in blue. She is a happy person who I was said to see leave the area where we worked for bluer pastures. I know, I wouldn’t mind moving to Galveston either. Anyway, she was vigorous and diligent in law enforcement and seems to have continued the trend with the publication on Jaded Visions, her first thriller.

I had a great visit with her over the weekend and have challenged her to be my “book coach.” Ms. Jones has another book in mind so if you like this one, make sure you get the next one. Her books can be purchased in several locations, including her Jaded Visions website.

I promise you she is not wrong about the details of law enforcement in the story. Coming from law enforcement she knows what she is talking about. The story is about a killer and a six year old:

“Jade Hamilton is barely staying one step ahead of a ruthless killer. Paranormal visions have been a part of her life since she was ten and this time her visions put her in the middle of a murder. Jade has to keep six year old Emmie Linderhoff safe from this killer, as well as, keep herself out of jail for kidnapping.

Jade runs with the child after the girl’s parents are murdered and along the way she meets up with St. Joseph’s most eligible bachelor, Detective Ryan Douglas. Ryan, along with his partner, try to help Jade solve this case before another murder occurs. As they become more involved in the case, they begin to realize that their feelings for each other are growing as quickly as the fear that they won’t find the killer in time!”

This is the description on the website. I am reading the book and  have to say that I am enjoying the story line. Can’t wait for book 2. It is an enjoyable read and you may not want to stop reading until you are through and there are no more pages to turn. I had to stop just so I could complete this post! Otherwise I would still be reading.

TL Jones is on Facebook in addition to the Jaded Visions site. Stop by and give her a shout.

She has been on TV and the radio giving interivews.

T. L. Jones lives in South East Texas with her husband, Dave, two dogs, Zeus and Harley, and an African Grey Parrot named Herman. A former police officer, T. L. Jones has acquired valuable insight into criminal behavior.  Her experience in  law enforcement and her fascination with the paranormal has supercharged her creative juices to give you … Jaded Visions.

Haunted Cedar Creek Lake Book

by MarDeck on Apr.02, 2009, under Paranormal

I am working to complete my book about hauntings, myths and mysteries around Cedar Creek Lake. If you have any information you would like to pass on please send an email. I can be reached by mail at PO Box 73, Kemp, TX 75143.

I have heard stories about Tool, Eustace, Gun Barrel City, Malakoff and Peeltown along with other places. Surely someone has a story. I can always use more information about things I may have already covered. There are a lot of stories about new hauntings in this area partly because it has been a retirement community for a long time. There are mysterious lights, big foot sightings and so much more……….
