Excerpt from Lyn’s book NIGHTMARES AND DREAMS
When the exterminator jokingly declared, "Lady, you better burn it," Lindy Lewis devised a plan and burned her beautiful home to collect the million dollar insurance. When the fraud is discovered by Reed Conners, an investigator for the same insurance company and coincidently a lover from college days; their lives again become entwined. Reed is pressured by his boss to "get the million back," but
works to exonerate Lindy with the promise she will return the money. When temptation gets too great, she disappears with the cash. Through out the next year, Lindy frolics in sun filled days, carrying her treasured wealth in a shoebox as she travels to escape a murderer's revenge.
CLUTCHING HER FORTUNE Lindy has left Reed Conner’s bed in the north and escapes to her beloved south. As she frolics in sunny Savannah, Georgia, another house fire steals her tranquility and again she takes to the road. She settles by the ocean in Newport, Rhode Island. Here her journey into the mystical world of ghosts, visions and clairvoyance begins. She has a vision of Reed, the investigator who has been hot on her trail to reclaim the million dollars for the insurance company they say she defrauded. He’s been shot and in a coma, and now beyond a doubt, Lindy believes it’s her turn to help him. She rushes back to his side. The FBI enters the picture and an inevitable prison term looms ahead, unless she testifies in court that she witnessed an international drug dealer murder one of their agents in cold blood!”
The
courtroom was silent as death as the prosecutor
repeated the question. "Miss
Lewis, would you please tell the court what
you saw when you looked out the porthole
of the yacht?" The color
drained from Lindy's face, and a chill numbed
her limbs. She felt the deadly threat in
Mario's eyes pierce the short distance in
the room as she sat just a few feet from
him. But she didn't have a choice; testify
for the FBI or face prison for her fraudulent
insurance claim. And of course, hand over
the million dollars! Oh lord,
this was so much worse then she'd imagined.
Tension raced across the planked floor in
the courtroom then, but she choked down
the dread and said, "I saw Mario D'
Agustino shoot a man!"
