Linda extends a warm welcome to Joe Edd Morris, author of Return to Freedom Summer, a novel about the relationship between three children, one white and two black, who bond in the fifties. They are split up by forces beyond their control, and ten years later, they find themselves strangely reunited in “The Movement” in Mississippi in 1964 and at the center of two grizzly murders.

Joe Edd Morris is the author of the award-winning novel, Land Where my Fathers Died (Context Books, May 2002), and his short fiction has been nominated for the Pushcart Prize. He is a retired United Methodist minister and currently spends him time writing, divided between Lake Junaluska, North Carolina and Tupelo, Mississippi.

Linda would also like to welcome Ken McAdams, author of Grand Deceptions! This novel, which is based on real events, answers the question of why President John F. Kennedy was shot in November of 1963. Grand Deceptions explores the vast network of corruption in Washington, DC and fills the void of the “why” and “who” of the Kennedy assassination.

Ken McAdams is a Yale University graduate and was a Chief Pilot of two Pan Am divisions after he qualified as a Marine Corps jet fighter pilot. He is also a published author of Bon Courage (Moyer Bell, June 2010). He is married to the celebrated painter, Marian Bingham, and they live in Greenwich, Connecticut.

Synthia is a licensed Naturopathic Physician and energy intuitive. She is the published author and co-author of six non-fiction books on spirituality, consciousness and the paranormal. She currently resides on a small farm in rural Connecticut with her husband and two horses.
