Was he pushed? Proving the obscure motive of sibling rivalry for the professor's casualty, and taking on the rich and powerful Stone family alone overwhelms and threatens Dillon Delaney's own life. Fighting back, he is reluctantly forced into the role of self-appointed sleuth, and launches his own investigation into the death, one that uncovers hidden secrets of the Stone family and the rebellious son's mysterious skate shop.

Due to his good fortune of winning the Massachusetts vaccination incentive lottery that ran at the height of the COVID-19 Pandemic, Dillon Delaney left his post as a principal and created and conducts a nonprofit organization that is a service learning center an action based program that commits K-12 age students to projects under the motto of kindness matters.

Experiencing the trauma of losing his parents and the grandmother that raised him, Dillon has pistanthrophobia, a fear of getting abandoned and hurt so deeply that he avoids intimate relationships as a way to guard against future emotionally painful experiences.

Autorenporträt

As an experienced educator - an elementary classroom teacher, a special educator, a children's hospital pastoral care teacher, and an elementary school principal - I am in my second act as a writer and an artist. I grew up and live in the area just west of Boston, MA and so I know how to take the readers on a journey through the amazing setting.

I have a BS from Boston University and a Masters Degree from Harvard University, but it is my love of reading, years of teaching and being a school administrator that prepared me to write my series.

A post Covid-19 Pandemic series with characters about whom we care, that partners with a feel good mystery format, invites the readers to consider that "Kindness Matters" is a way of life; and a commitment to solve on behalf of others, may be the cure to overcome the obstacles that keep us all from opening up to the possibilities that trust, friendship and love will always flourish and triumph.
