Announcing Dirty Deeds by Rhys Ford

Dirty_Deeds_CoverANNOUNCING
Dirty Deeds by Rhys Ford (Book 4 in the Cole McGinnis Series)
Coming March 28, 2014 from Dreamspinner Press

Sheila Pinelli needed to be taken out.

Former cop turned private investigator Cole McGinnis never considered committing murder. But six months ago, when Jae-Min’ s blood filled his hands and death came knocking at his lover’s door,  killing Sheila Pinelli became a definite possibility.

While Sheila lurks in some hidden corner of Los Angeles, Jae and Cole share a bed, a home, and most of all, happiness. They’d survived Jae’s traditional Korean family disowning him and plan on building a new life—preferably one without the threat of Sheila’s return hanging over them.

Thanks to the Santa Monica police mistakenly releasing Sheila following a loitering arrest, Cole finally gets a lead on Sheila’s whereabouts. That is, until the trail goes crazy and he’s thrown into a tangle of drugs, exotic women, and more death. Regardless of the case going sideways, Cole is determined to find the woman he once loved as a sister and get her out of their lives once and for all.

TJ and Eric Update: Post-Op

I teared up and not just because I got Vick’s VapoRub in my eye.

From Tj Klune
Eric’s post-surgical MRI results came in. The neuro was right: he was able to remove the entire hemangioma. This is huge. As long as there is no damage to his brain stem from the surgery, he might be able to return to how he was prior to this whole mess. It will take time, but time we’ve got.

TJ and Eric Update Dec 28

TJ Posted:

Busy day. Eric had his MRI last night. We haven’t gotten the results from it yet, but the neuro doesn’t seem worried.

Since the surgery was on his brain stem, there is swelling there, which in effect has caused decreased sensation in his arms and legs. He can feel me touching his left arm but can’t move it. He won’t be able to until the swelling subsides.

He will be moved to a new hospital in Richmond next week to work on getting him off the ventilator. After that, he should be moved to a rehab location. We hope to find one at home.

While the surgery was a success, it was a single step in a much longer journey. He has his good days and his bad days. We both do. But I count every single day as a win because we have come this far already. And while we still have a ways to go, I know in my heart he is going to be just fine.
