The Worms in Fools' Fingers
When wickedness is confronted by righteousness, it is often difficult to tell them apart. Seventeenth century Europe has been ravaged by war for almost thirty years. The people are broken, starving, and riven by disease. Out of the devastation and their desperation for somewhere to lay the blame comes the terror of the witch persecutions. Udo Beck is a soldier who has survived a battle that he vows will be his last. Learning of the fortunes being made by witch confessors, he decides where his future lies - a decision that will change his very humanity and the lives of those around him.
In the German state of Saxony, an outbreak of a horrific contagion is blamed on witchcraft, and the zealotry of an ambitious Bishop brings terror throughout the state. Disparate and memorable characters are brought together on the forested slopes of the Harz mountains where each must confront their own iniquities as their lives are seized by events and forces beyond their control.
From England, from the frozen shores of the Baltic, and from the blue limpid waters of the Caribbean, The Worms in Fools’ Fingers is an historical adventure - a tale of ambition, greed, and betrayal that destroys lives and families, and renders formerly unbreakable friendships asunder.

Camilla Caterpillar
In 1989, my Aunt Lois handed me a stack of paintings with a unique request: to write a story inspired by them. I was initially sceptical, as I believed stories usually preceded illustrations. However, Aunt Lois assured me that the narrative would naturally emerge from the artwork. Surprisingly, she was right. Words flowed to me like a song, often during the late hours while I was up nursing our second set of twins. It felt as though Aunt Lois herself was sending these words from afar, as the story of Camilla gradually took shape from the paintings.
Sadly, Aunt Lois passed away soon after, and the story of Camilla was put aside as my husband Greg and I navigated the bustling life of raising six children. It wasn’t until our children had families of their own and tranquillity returned that Camilla Caterpillar finally came to life. With Camilla’s story, an idea sprouted to create a healthy snack for children. As you delve into the pages of this book, I hope you enjoy a little nibble and the whimsical journey of Camilla Caterpillar.
