The Independent - Paperback

by Art Burton (Author)

Someone is blowing up schools in America, and they want money to stop doing it. Terrorists, extortionists, the people don't care what description the authorities have assigned to these criminals, they just want the destruction to stop. Governor Peter Westin of Georgia, the site of the first bombing, is determined to bring these felons to justice. Maybe a little too determined.

Author Biography

Art Burton lives in Latties Brook, Nova Scotia, Canada with his wife, Flame and dog, Charley. He took an early retirement from The Halifax Herald at the end of 2002 where he had been a printer for 26 years before joining the IT Department. When he left the hustle and bustle of life in the big city for the more relaxed, laid-back lifestyle of rural Nova Scotia, he decided it was time to move up from printing to writing. He has written six mystery novels as well as two books of related-short stories about the hobos who passed through Central Nova Scotia during the Great Depression.
