Out of the death throes of Gaddafi's Libya a strange, potentially catastrophic story emerges as al-Qaida and one of the countries inner circle of leaders hatch a plan to secrete away hidden enriched uranium and biomaterial. Josh Martin SF leads a team of CIA Agents to prevent the deployment of these WMDs on a journey that traverses Africa, and ends in unbelievable chaos.

Imagine for a minute; a ghostly theater, a historic gunfight, a lawless oil boom, and a cast of scoundrels. Now add thirty brothels, characters such as H. L. Hunt-who got his start in Downtown El Dorado-some racy women, and finally sprinkle it all with gobs of money as a roaring 1920s oil boom swept over this little community of 3500 and blossomed it to 40,000 in 18 months. You'll find an "OK Corral" gunfight, mules drowning in muddy streets, and yes, most importantly, you'll find an old 1920s theater surrounding by numerous other old buildings.-and they're all filled with spirits! Is Downtown El Dorado, Arkansas the most haunted town in the country?

The 8th in the Richard, the Paperboy series. Another wild tale about Richard and his best friend John Clayton. This time the boys get tangled up with a wild snake filled wedding. Of course, it's the space creatures who are the big problem, but the Norphlet Cornbread Festival has to happen, and the boys are determined to win---any way they can.

From a Shotgun Shack is the memoir of Richard Mason. Richard left a real shotgun shack to become a successful oil exploration geologist, an honored environmentalist---a three-term president of the Arkansas Wildlife Federation, and in 2009, because of his work in downtown El Dorado, the downtown was named the top Main Street town in the U. S. Along the way he became a friend of former President Clinton. Richard worked his way through college, sometimes holding as many as three jobs. After working for Exxon on the famous King Ranch and in Benghazi, Libya, he resigned to become an independent geologist and oil operator. He is an amazingly successful geologist, who has discovered some 30 oil and gas fields. Richard is a former top ranked tennis player, he sings in the adult choir, and has taught an adult Sunday School class for 40 years.

It's the summer of 1944 and Richard, the Norphlet Paperboy, John Clayton, and Ears are in one heck of a mess. Yeah, there was an 'accident' involving a small herd of 10 Chihuahuas, which has sent the whole state into an uproar, and the three boys are right in the middle of it. An attack by the Chihuahuas on Richard, the paperboy has left the brown, award-winning Chihuahuas with white spots, and as Richard will tell you, "It was all a danged accident, but we're in big trouble, and if lying won't get us off, then maybe the Norphlet Mafia is gonna hafta do something really, really bad. You know, like dognapping, or something so gross it will run the Little Rock private eye right out of town."

"Yeah, I guess I should have written this book under a pen name, or maybe just have moved to Texas when it came out. My God, I can't believe some of the crap I pulled during those four short years. But, hey, nobody's perfect, and if all those goodie-two-shoes who will stick up their noses when they read this book, really told what they did in college, I'll bet it would open some eyes. My guess is, that you'll read this book, and then start asking questions-just like my wife did. "Did you really do that?" Or "Who was Millie? Or "Did you really play poker all the way through college?" Or maybe you might wonder just where fiction ends and non-fiction begins? That's a hell of a question, because as I wrote this book, I wrote both. Yes, parts of this book are non-fiction, but as any publisher will tell you, if there's one sentence in the book that's fiction, then the whole work is fiction. So, I'll leave that one up to you. You decide if "Sandy" really was the rascal I made him out to be, or was "Sandy" a victim or maybe both. And when it comes to breaking and entering, or just ordinary cheating on a test, is there any difference in how you do it? Or, if a young man is desperate, is that an excuse for illegal behavior? So, my recommendation is, for you the reader, to just sit back and not worry if this or that is fiction or non-fiction. Actually, it might be more fun to read, if you read this book as a non-fiction diary of a college rebel-which it could be-of course, one sentence of fiction, makes it a work of fiction."

A coming of age story is featured as the 10th novel in the Richard, the Norphlet Paperboy Series. Richard and John Clayton encounter unusual family problems and they decided to spend a few days with Uncle Swamp hoping that their family problems will work out while they are gone. However, rain and more rain floods the area and they are swept down the river on an epic flood. After days on the Ouachita, Black, Red, and finally the Mississippi they manage to swim ashore near New Orleans. Penniless, wearing only cutoff shorts they, they struggle to survive in the French Quarter. After a week of living in the Quarter by eating out of garbage cans and sleeping in a drainage culvert they are picked up and sent to a repressive Louisiana Reform School. The breakout and struggle to return home tests every fiber of the boys emotions. It's a true test of the boys resolve and determination to survive.

It's 1944 and in the little village of Norphlet, Arkansas, Richard and John Clayton are making plans for a quiet summer of fun. However, north of their town is a German Prisoner of War Camp, and just when everyone thinks the War with Germany is about over, there is an escape from the camp and a rabid, Gestapo Colonel leads five former SS Soldiers on a mission of destruction. As the POWs race south to attack the South Arkansas oil refineries, they end up camping in Flat Creek Swamp, just a few miles south of Norphlet. After stumbling upon their camp, the boys plot a daring capture of the POWs. However, that wild summer had a lot more going on than just German POWs on the run. A crazy vision by the boy's good friend, Ears, has everyone in town changing their name to "Jasper". And while all of that is going on, Homer Ray's, bullying causes the boys to try and stop the bullying for good with a trick to end all tricks. Yes, all the Norphlet characters are still part of this wild summer, as Big Six, Doc, Bubba, and Marshal Wing fit right into the story. As the summer of 1944 passes, the escapades of the two boys seem to run together as the boys try to balance the startling events in the little village, while plotting to capture the German POWs.
