Natural Order of Things - This anthology is a collection of quick and entertaining tales that run the gambit from history to ghost stories. With twenty titles from which to choose, there is something for everyone. There is one based on a social rumor from the fifties and those rumors being confirmed in the eighties. Another was shared with me by my late uncle about his learning to fly in west Texas as a teenager, back in the 1930s. Still another is a personal experience of owning an 1890s Victorian on the Avenue that was haunted by the cries of a little girl. The house was originally the home of a pediatrician who had an office on the main floor. Another example is about a boy actually meeting ... could it be? Yes, apparently it is Santa who is lying in the sun on a SoCal beach in August. Even Santa needs a vacation after all. Oh, there is so much more.

Melody the cheerleader was a genuinely pretty petite blonde with cobalt blue eyes and a sweet disposition. She never much cared for the football or basketball players, but she loved convertibles. On that fateful day it will be the death of her.

Having had a crush on her since fifth grade, he never quite got over her death. When he returns for the twenty year high school reunion, it is Melody who will change his life.
