What if you lived in Victorian London, the time of Jack the Ripper? What if you were one of the women he attacked, yet you managed to escape? And what if you knew he needed to find you and silence you before you identified him?
New maid Dorcy Edwards spurns her wealthy employer's attempts to seduce her. When he becomes a victim of the person the newspapers call "Jack the Ripper," estranged son Gareth Davenport returns to London to handle his father's affairs. Dorcy puzzles over what the handsome, brooding heir might be hiding behind his eye patch and black leather gloves. As circumstances unfold to expose the killer's identity, Dorcy's plunged into a nightmare, convinced Gareth is none other than the infamous murderer. But is Dorcy's life what Gareth seeks? Or nothing more easily broken than her heart?
She's not forgotten, so I don't consider her gone.

Does anyone remember those old commercials of McDonald’s that advertised the Big Mac burgers? They’d show cars with bumper stickers that read: “Caution. Driver of this vehicle subject to Big Mac attacks.”
Lately, I’ve had trouble with my PC. Well, to be honest, I’ve had problems ever sinc...
“Dear Diary,
What a fun night! After the movies, Jimmy took me to The Sweat Shack. All the gang was already there dancing to a record on the jukebox. We yanked off our shoes and sock-hopped right into ‘Rock ‘Round the Clock’. Jam-packed against another couple, we dodged stomping feet and flai...
C'mon, admit it. You're intrigued by the title, aren't you?
But you realize, of course, the intelligence of mice. Because of their brilliant IQ, they're chosen to conduct laboratory tests. I sure couldn't pass those lab tests (and I don't want to, either), but mice apparently do so—with flying...
I read that Burger King is now offering Spam for breakfast in Hawaii. I guess the islanders love the stuff. You know Spam, surely? It comes vacuum-sealed in a can that you have to peel open. It’s pale pink and when you shake it from the can it lands—kerplunk!—like a giant pencil eraser onto yo...
You just can’t be prepared for when you might witness history. Well, perhaps we’re living history every day of our lives. But you know what I mean. Those really significant moments like the crash of the Hindenberg, or the sinking of the Titanic, or even 911 stands out in our memories. If you liv...
Last April we purchased a living mop. We decided our black Lab mix dog, Lovey, needed a playmate. (I grew tired of being her chew toy, thank you very much!) Off we went to our local humane society and looked over the varied assortment. While our hearts bled at all the animals begging for our l...

The newspaper ad read, “Easy to tame. Teach them to talk." That was my first consideration of acquiring a parakeet for a pet. My neighbor across the street had one. It sat in its cage, twittered once in a while, and was colorful to watch. I decided that was enough positives. Next day I travele...
