BONE HASH

 Book Cover Bone Hash


BONE HASH


In the vast untamed desert of northern Arizona, Aideen Connor signs on as lead archaeologist at Moenkopi Ridge hoping to find peace after witnessing her husband’s violent death. Instead, she stumbles into a mystery as ancient and dangerous as the land itself. Shortly after she arrives, Aideen’s team uncovers a “bone hash,” human bones showing evidence of prehistoric cannibalism. Her job takes on a darker turn when a brutal murder shocks the residents of the nearby Hopi Reservation. Unsettling connections begin to emerge between her excavation and the crime.

Trust from the local community fractures, threats escalate, and Aideen’s world begins to unravel. First her boss blames her when the entire bone hash is stolen. Then local Native Americans accuse her of disrespecting their ancestors. Violent threats against her ensue: a sheep is killed, viciously eviscerated and left under her residential trailer. A photo of her dead husband is stolen from her bedroom and stuck in its blood. All threats point to a grim reality: someone wants her gone.

As her desperation grows, Aideen turns to Frank Nakai, the BLM Special Agent assigned to the case. But Frank’s presence is as complicating as it is compelling, leaving Aideen torn between grief and her unexpected attraction. When Frank is ordered to return to his office in Santa Fe, Aideen must navigate a maze of buried truths with only her dog, Dakota for companionship. Every clue leads her closer to danger and the secrets buried at Moenkopi Ridge. Secrets that could cost her more than her career—they could cost her life.

My Three Sons: How God Separated Man, After Man (Through Satan) Separated Himself from God

 Book Cover Cross & Dove



A bold, eye-opening journey from Noah’s sons to mankind’s salvation—discover the truth that unites us all.

What if the divisions we see in the world today—between races, nations, and belief systems—can all be traced back to three men in ancient Scripture? In My Three Sons: How God Separated Man, After Man (Through Satan) Separated Himself from God, Gabriel Obed David unpacks a revelation that’s as provocative as it is powerful: the legacies of Shem, Ham, and Japheth—Noah’s sons—have not only shaped history but continue to define the spiritual destinies of mankind.

Spanning a deeply engaging and well-developed narrative filled with rich theology, biblical history, and prophetic insight, the author delivers a profound message for our fractured world. This isn’t just a story of ancestry or religion—it’s a deeply personal exploration of identity, purpose, and the urgent need for reconciliation with our Creator. With every chapter, My Three Sons uncovers how humanity has drifted from divine truth and how false doctrines, cultural pride, and man-made traditions have veiled the one path that leads us back.

From Eden’s shadow to Calvary’s light, this book traces the soul’s path back to God’s eternal embrace.

—Greg P.

Through gripping commentary and deep scriptural analysis, Gabriel Obed David challenges readers to examine the spiritual inheritance they carry. He paints a sobering picture of a world intoxicated by self-made religions and empty rituals—and then reveals something far more powerful: the unifying truth found only in Jesus Christ.

My Three Sons doesn’t shy away from uncomfortable truths. It confronts idolatry, disobedience, and spiritual decay with conviction—offering not condemnation, but a call to awakening. This is a passionate plea to break through the noise of division and rediscover that all humanity was meant to be one family, under one God, walking one path.

This is not a light read—but it’s one that may forever change how you see yourself, your faith, and your future. It’s for the truth-seekers, the spiritually hungry, and those who sense that the world’s answers no longer satisfy.

Let the truth of Scripture guide your steps—My Three Sons is more than a book; it’s a wake-up call for the soul.

Essays about duality

 Essays about duality

Woman's Face

Illusory love: essays about duality

I write.
And i keep writing.
Defining the same things again and again, but actually giving contradictory explanations.
All being a reflection of all my weird thoughts, feelings and emotions.
But … to be honest … i am not ashamed of all what i say in front of the public.
Even …. if i change my perceptions same like the weather.
Having a non-ending emotional balance … being extremely difficult to be understood.
By my readers.
And … all the people knowing me.
So … yes … i am in love.
I understand that all is illusory … and even if i clearly define it … being so aware of all what is going on … i refuse to disconnect myself from that woman.
All continuing.
Being happy.
Then unhappy.
And again happy for a short moment … but always ending up in … unhappiness.
Happening like that again and again … and again.
Like a karmic charade.
So … that is probably how I’ve became a writer … all being so, so related … with my life.
Trying to save myself in front of the illusion of love.






Woman getting Hari combed by horned man



I've wrote the book "The bitch syndrome" as a reply to all what was happening into my life.
All being ... real facts, revealed abstractly.
Writing.
And writing.
Defining in fact my frustrations, but most certainly looking like one of the worst misogynist from nowadays times.
The real fact is that ... all i've tried is actually a form of self therapy and the tendency of understanding why relationships don't really work on long term.
Trying to save ... a love story which most certainly will never work again.
But ... keep trying.
Finding explanations.
Blaming ... my woman.
In fact ... my women.
Defining them in 1 million ugly ways ... again and again.
And ... the term "bitch" was the best.
I've really liked it.
Mentioning to all of them on and on and on ... that they are sick ... and should do something to get rid of this "bitch syndrome".
But ... they ignored me.
Every single day ... being the clear evidence that i was right.
Or ... maybe ... i was just illusory believing that i was right.
But ... meanwhile i was writing, defining in microscopic way all those ugly episodes from the love story.
And ... when someone was telling me that i am wrong ... cause being a bitch is just a secondary effect ... a reaction at my ugly way of being a lover ... I've really became angry.
Denying it.
Knowing i am perfect.
Knowing i do all into an amazing way ... and there is no way someone could complain about me.
In fact ... like all the other men from this planet.
So ... at least i am honest.
I define my thoughts, feelings and emotions.
Deep inside myself feeling i have the right to protect myself ... and ...
But ... i am just a writer, which is complaining about his own life.
About his woman.
Trying to fix her.
Not accepting that i have to actually fix myself so that her reactions to change.
So ... all is a vicious circle.
But ... i keep writing.
Analysing.
Defining.
Illusory believing that things will change into better.




Half of Woman's face with hair blowing

The sickness of …

my reality: essays about duality



I have this obsession of writing about love relationships and the weird algorithms which are defining the dynamic of such a story.
And ... i do it by years.
Writing my own life experiences ... being obviously that i am actually defining the nonsense in its absolute form.
So ... i keep writing ... all being sort of a journal.
Any new day ... is a new experience ... and i allow my soul to be part of that.
Many believe ... i am already insane ... cause any story is about love and hate, not being so clear if i actually love or ... hate that woman.
But ... yes ... i am confused.
So ... as a process of self therapy, trying in fact to heal my broken lost soul ... i continue analysing and defining all the micro elements of the love story.
Hoping ... i'll find the answer and i'll just stop the emotional balance love-hate ... which i am feeling everyday.
But ... truth be told ... there is nothing to be redefined.
I write all into my books.
... never being ashamed of my thoughts, feelings and emotions.
Looking ... so lost.
Being ... in fact ... so lost.
And so ... incoherent.
Like many, many others.
Drowned into ... the illusion.

The Golden Box



Unlocking the Past, One Treasure at a Time: Inside The Golden Box by Cassie A. Hunter Macedo

In Cassie A. Hunter Macedo’s nostalgic and heartwarming debut novel, The Golden Box, readers are transported to 1945 Kalamazoo, Michigan—a town where the leaves fall like golden confetti, and childhood is filled with wide-eyed wonder. Against this charming backdrop unfolds the story of five unforgettable kids: Bobby, Jason, Jody, Sarah, and the newest member of their tight-knit group, Adam.

What starts as a simple game—collecting found objects in a cardboard box—soon becomes something far more meaningful. From a pocket watch to a broken necklace, each item they discover seems to whisper of a past life. With each new trinket placed inside what they come to call “The Golden Box,” the kids begin to sense that their treasures may hold secrets—engraved initials, hidden compartments, even pieces of untold history that connect them in ways they never expected.

But this isn’t just a mystery story. It’s a journey through growing up—navigating schoolyard bullies, budding friendships, family complexities, and the quiet strength it takes to be different. Adam’s arrival into the group brings new questions, new dynamics, and a fresh reminder of what it means to belong. Meanwhile, Bobby’s struggle with learning challenges adds a layer of emotional depth that many readers—young and old—will relate to.

"A charming tale of friendship, adventure, and the hidden treasures that shape who we become."

- Greg P.

Macedo’s vivid storytelling style immerses readers in the sights, sounds, and feelings of postwar small-town America. The characters are not just believable—they’re lovable. The kids are clever, loyal, and curious, and the story invites readers to view the world through their hopeful eyes.

The Golden Box is a coming-of-age tale brimming with warmth, mystery, and meaning. Perfect for fans of stories like Bridge to Terabithia, Stand by Me, or The Goonies, this novel celebrates friendship, resilience, and the little discoveries that can change everything. At its core, it’s a reminder that sometimes the real treasures are the people beside us—and the memories we make along the way.
