The Wand that Rocks the Cradle contains:
“To Find a Peach” by Frank Saverio
This story serves as the basis for chapter one of A Burnt Summer, Book one of Seasons of Wither.
My short story “The Second Degree” won honorable mention at the 2024 PSWA Awards.
“The Second Degree” will appear in an anthology called To Service, Protect, and Write, Vol 2 in 2025
The story serves as a prequel to a science fiction/crime fiction series featuring the same characters, in which a K9 team with special powers works with police to solve crimes in the near future.
