The little girl in this story likes Sundays best of all -- it’s the day her father calls. She hasn’t seen him for over a year because he works far away across the ocean in the United States. She writes in her notebook every day, keeping a record of everything that happens to share with him when she finally sees him again. Then one Sunday her father asks if she and her mother would like to join him, and she’s surprised by her mixed feelings. It means leaving her grandmother, her friends ... and her dog, Kika, behind. This is a powerful story from a young child’s perspective about what it’s like to have an absent parent and to have to leave your home, country and those you love for a new life.

He is a bounty hunter and one of the best. This man has no fear of anyone, anytime, anything, anywhere, and he is the nicest person you have ever met, but some people make the mistake of riling him. Dan has the temper of a grizzly bear, but he has a soft spot for women and children. His horse Buck is fourteen hundred pound buckskin and has no problem packing Dan around. His dog Sammi, a female German Sheppard, now five years old and weighing well over one hundred pounds. He bought Sammi when she was four weeks old, and Dan spent many, many hours training her to his commands. If anyone did harm to Sammi, Dan would cut their throat, in one second. If anyone would does harm to Dan, Sammi would go for their throat in a second. She travels with Dan everywhere he goes. Dan carries a.45 Colt on one hip and a 14 inch Bowie knife big and sharp, on the other hip. An old timer that knows Dan said that Dan was chasing an outlaw and when he caught him the outlaw fought back. Dan cut his head off with one swipe of his knife. He reached down and unbuckled the outlaws gun and holster and hung it over the saddle home of the outlaws horse. He didnt take the rest of his body. He left that for the coyotes. Dan said the outlaws guns saddle and his horse was his bonus. Then he put the outlaws head in a sack and turned it in for the bounty. When Dan came across a beautiful woman named Maggie. She was wearing a beautiful long green gown. She took Dans breathe away. Dan also came across a 12 year old orphan boy named Billy. He was pretty much like most boys that age. Kinda skinny. He had blonde hair with a cow lick on the back of his head. He always had a half dozen blonde hairs sticking straight up. He was growing faster than his pants. They were usually two inches too short. Billy was a pretty tough kid and he will prove it. Dan teamed up with a bounty hunter named Joe Cobb. Joe proved too many rowdy cowboys and outlaws that it was a bad idea to try their luck at challenging Joe to a fight. Joe was a big man about the same size as Dan. They also came across a very beautiful tall slender young lady that can damn well take care of herself. Her name is Abby. A little girl named Little Milly was rescued after a wagon train got lost.

Bertrand is a street musician who's often found screaming on the boulevards and squares of Amsterdam. Most chose to ignore him...that is, until his synapses line up giving him the ability to make music that is divined from the ether. It's been said that music is one of the only activities that activates, stimulates, and uses the entire brain. Could Bertrand's music be a conduit to our shared celestial mind-the medium bridging the conscious to the unconscious world? Many of the Gypsies and Street-people who follow him like a God believe so. What they don't know, is that Bertrand was a child prodigy back in the U.S., a child of wealthy New Yorkers with an inheritance that others want to take charge of. They want him back on his meds that control his schizophrenia and render him docile, meds that close the door to his musical genius...and his ability to touch others to the very core of their being. Christopher takes you into the depths of Bertrand's world, a world sizzling with music and the characters on the fringe that make it on its most primal level. And alternately, into the world of those that could care less, whose only motivation is money.
