I brace myself to cross the bridgeoutreaching from the rocky ridgeon which I pause, as though in plight,perhaps impaired by fear or flight.Should I proceed with strong resolve,not knowing what that may involve;but blessings to all left behindand may this way to all be kind?But is this structure safe and soundto take me on to firmer ground,or will it sag beneath my weight,or sway to send me to my fate?Robert Scott has previously won many prizes in poem competitions and also written a successful book of poems published in England.

i Join Walton Langston as he leaves the Police Academy to serve as a uniformed policeman. He is selected to become his dream, a detective. Paired up with Manuel Jimenez the two soon become legends in the department because of their off-the wall but efficient methods of nabbing the criminal element. They are known as the Terrible Two by their fellow officers. When joined by another odd ball, black detective John Bradford, they continue their crusade against crime as the Titillating Three. You also get to know paramedic Wallace Brown who, as a police volunteer, poses as a black minister, the Bishop of the Church of the Esoteric Involuntary Manumission. There are moments of high tension and some belly laughs as they practice their unorthodox means of solving crime and confusing criminals.

A 16-year-old is to be hung for patricide when a whore, for reasons of her own, gets him out of jail.

He even serves a stint as Marshall and State Representative. Accurate and thrilling portrail of the wooly west in the latter part of the 19th centry through WWI. Very interesting.

i A college professor is denied tenure and finds a treasure reminiscent of that found by Edmund Dante, the Count of Monte Christo. He moves to the Gulf Coast where gambling casinos make new wealth invisible; meets a beautiful widow with a seven-year-old son who needs surgery for a hole in his heart. This is a love story and a warm human story of as child who is made whole by modern medicine. The other stories run the gamut from the humorous to the detestable but oh so apt situations that our modern world develops.

A nationally prominent Quarterback prospect loses an eye in a scrimmage accident. He overcomes this grisly accident to play football anyway, but not as QB. There is college love, pregnant coeds, marriage, and hope. There are also eight short stories of all genres, two of which are horror stories but without a lot of blood. All are written with humor and are good reading. One farce of the Age of Chivaly is probably the author's favorite.
