excerpt : Battered Mind Prologue

Sadie sat on her hospital bed wondering how she got there.   She looked  all around the large room, and began to place her arm on the cold metal brass of the  bed.   She noticed how the nurses would come in and out the door.  As she layed,  there quietly, her heart began to race rather rapidly.  It only took a few minutes before  all that had transpired the night before came back to her.   Suddenly, she began to  scream very loudly.    The loud screams overwhelmed the entire floor.   It did not take very long for the  hospital staff to come into her room.  As they tried to calm Sadie down, she tried to  get away by kicking and trying to bite the nurses in the room.  After a period of what seemed forever, a male nurse came in and gave her a sedative to  calm her down.    Sadie again seemed like she was in another world.  She could not  ...

New Excerpt for my novel..

The room was pitched dark, and you could hear the phone ringing very loudly.    However, there was no answer that night of May 27, 2009 at the Carlyle residence.     This is when the neighbor retired Nurse  Agatha Lane called the authorities.   Ms. Lane  lived alone and never married and took a liking to the Carlyle’s .  Sadie and Ms. Lane   became instant friends and she also extended her help to them when they needed care  for their daughter.  In her frantic call she just said she had heard a gunshot and believed  some intruders had broken into the home.  This is when the authorities were alerted and  they went straight to the scene of the crime.  The large Mansion  was located in North  Raleigh.  This was a very private and secluded area.  Both  Dante and Sadie  were part  of a very wealthy class with both of them belonging to families ...
