The death of Estelle Mercer's husband of thirty years in a violent work-related accident, leaves her by default as the new president and sole owner of the family construction business, a business of which she has virtually no working knowledge. As the new president of the company, she has no choice but to lean on the management team in place to help her get up to speed with her new responsibilities. Gene Davidson is one of the management team members who is most helpful during this early transition period, and eventually a romance develops that leads to complications that could cause a sudden end to the relationship. The sudden death in a foreign country of Estelle's close friend, Tara Isome, complicates the romance even more. There are many twists and turns and ups and downs as the story moves toward its dramatic, shocking and totally unexpected conclusion.

It was called Denvers Crime of the Century. In 1988, Frank Magnuson, a young man struggling with lifes curve balls, was set to testify against a Crip kingpin who along with three other men perpetrated a robbery of a Denver restaurant. The night before the trial, two dispatched killers lay in wait in the basement of a house in Bonnie Brae owned by Franks friend and roommate, Steve Curtis. At just before midnight in June of 1989, two young men lay dead with a third left for dead. Ten Minutes till Midnight takes the reader into the very depths of Hell as two of these innocent men experience twenty insane moments of pure horror.

The true story of faith, miracles and recovery, Ten Minutes till Midnight will not only leave the readers adrenaline pulsating, but pondering the very credibility and prudence of the justice system.
