  "You have to wear one of these things?"

  "Not exactly." Leira picked up the other jacket. It was leather with PDA in white across the back. "I came up with my own version. Still PDA but at least it's leather."

  "You really think an old human like me can hold his own chasing down some magical something or others?"

  "I'll bet my life on it." Leira inched the doughnuts closer to Hagan. "You in?"

  He shrugged. "I'd be in without the doughnuts but it's a classy touch. Together again, huh? Not a bad ending to all of this. We got a case?"

  "Remember that necklace? I have the files in my car. Correk has a few ideas. You want to take a ride?"

  Hagan slipped on the jacket. "It fits! Let me check on Rose. You know, I've really missed that Mustang. You let me drive this time?"

  "That's still a no."

  Hagan started up the stairs.

  "Hey Hagan." He stopped and looked down at Leira. "It's nice to have you back again."

  "Same to you kid. More adventures await!"

  "Wait till you hear..."

  Author Notes - Martha Carr

  Written August 29th, 2017

  It’s been a whirlwind around here lately. First, there has been the amazing response from so many fans of The Leira Chronicles. You guys have written me notes, left posts, written reviews… but not just to say how much you like the books but to send encouragement and to thank me for continuing to go for my dreams… and to say how much these books have made your days or nights a little better. There are no words to tell you how wonderful it has been or what a strong connection I feel from all of you. Who knew that I’d write about a funny troll and a tough young detective who turns out to be magical AND touch so many people. Life is very cool like that.

  The other has been the flood in East Texas. I’m in Central Texas where we got plenty of rain and wind – and for some people flooding – but not like the devastation in other parts of the state. As I write this, the offspring is in Katy, Texas with friends and a boat rescuing as many people as they can from their flooded homes. So far, in just half a day they’ve taken out six or seven boat loads. I can already tell this experience is going to change his life and for the better.

  Some of you who are reading this may be victims of the hurricane and flood and just starting to think about what to do next. May your next days be peaceful and so much easier – and if you send me your address a troll mug will be on its way to you too. It’s not much but if it makes you smile when you go for coffee, I’m happy to help. He’s a tough little dude and so are all of you. Today is a part of a long journey and this isn’t the last chapter. It’s just one of those middle ones that takes some courage to walk through to see what comes next.

  In this book is one of my favorite things to do – Comicon! I have a few pictures (okay a lot more than a few) that I have taken over the years and will be sharing on my Facebook page this week. I remember the first time I took the offspring and I kept pointing to different characters and he could name them all. I got choked up and thought, I am a good mother. It’s a nerdette kind of a thing. It’s on my bucket list to someday be on a panel at Comicon… This came true so…

  Last thing that almost happened this week… there was about 15 minutes where it looked like I might have accidentally lost this book. However, Magic Mike calmly figured out how to retrieve it. He wisely didn’t tell me till later that he wasn’t sure he could. That’s the new nickname for him – Magic Mike – (Chippenelves anyone?). I was so flustered afterwards that we both forgot to turn off Skype (I don’t know what happened on his end) and hours later when I sat down at the computer I wondered why I was watching Mr. Magic Mike walk across his living room drinking a Coke. That was a good laugh after almost losing an entire book! He mentioned something about backing up the manuscript the next time…

  That’s it for now. I’m off to work on the next book in the series, keep checking in with the offspring and take Lois the Wonder Dog for a walk. And of course, keep chatting with all of you.

  Author Notes - Michael Anderle

  August 30th, 2017

  Thank you! Not only did you read the book, and Martha’s Author Notes, but you made it all the way to mine, as well.

  One of the things Martha didn’t mention is that she took time off to get this book done so damned fast. It has been a total of just about two and a half weeks from her previous book (out on the 14th). Remember, that was written, edited, and sent through the JIT team all in that amount of time, which is a phenomenal effort.

  It wiped her out.

  Fortunately for her, not so fortunately for us, she has more time to get the next book done. We are working on the beats for it Thursday, I believe. (Which is tomorrow, now that I look at the time which is about 12:45 AM.)

  If you ever work with Martha, there is one aspect which is going to ‘shine’ and that is she can be very … uh… determined.

  For example, she is wiped out mentally – the book is with Stephen Campbell to get to the JIT team (Just in Time) and she pings me…

  “Is the cover good enough for creating a FB banner?”

  So, I’m off to create a FB banner… She LOVES the Facebook banner. Now I get…

  “Love the FB Banner! Can I have a this as a mug? How about now? No? When? Ok…”

  What feels like ten minutes later…

  “Don’t forget the mug…”

  I start mumbling under my breath.

  Next morning, I’m working on the stuff for Ell Leigh Clarke’s Retribution release.

  “Good morning! How are we doing on the mug?”

  We aren’t. Going on the mug, I mean. Not only because of the aforementioned release, but because I had FORGOT about the mug. I’m done w/ my email send out and decide to work on the mug design.

  It doesn’t go too well. I can’t seem to get something I like. A few hours later, I’m back at home working and we happen to be chatting about something.

  “So, how is that mug going?” she asks me.

  Grrrr….

  I tell her that I’m going to let her go, and work on the mug. By now (the phone call) it’s about 8:00 PM.

  Forty minutes later, guess who pings me? That’s right… It’s the Carr lady. Five minutes later I finally get her the link to the new mug and thank God, she likes it.

  Otherwise, I was going to make a special mug with something rude on it and send her that. What do I get for all of this going-the-extra-mile effort?

  I get the name ‘Magic Mike’…

  Grrrrr….

  ;-)

  One should never upset the person who can create merchandise and put it up for sale. Who KNOWS what I might do.

  I have pictures of you Carr, and I’m not afraid to use them!
