Successful Authors from our Class of '63: We have some published authors, (and we probably have others) so, if you have published a book, please let us know and we will add it to these good reads;

Soupy Sales and the Detroit Experience, by Dr. Fran Shor - Fran is in the news again and thought some of the other Lebo folk might enjoy this article that just appeared in one of the local Detroit area newspapers. Fran has a new book that was something of a departure for him. Here's a link to the publisher's website where there's a good synopsis of the book: https://www.cambridgescholars.com/product/978-1-5275-7553-0

Passages of Rebellion, by Dr. Fran Shor - Fran's first novel follows the semi-autobiographical protagonist, Frank Goodman, in his antiwar and anti-draft activities during the turbulent years of 1967-1970. The novel, moving back and forth in time, explores his interactions with a wide variety of characters – from his fellow student protestors and draft resisters to his wife, Mary Browne, and a bombing suspect who accompanies Frank as he flees to Canada to escape capture for an abortive raid on a draft office.

Untouchable, by Donald Seymour - A dad's touching memoir of his son and their mutual love for each other and  baseball. Can be ordered through Amazon. https://a.co/d/enZ8LaQ

The Dying Hour by Nancy A. Hughes -  This mystery can be ordered from Amazon or Barnes & Noble in (large) paperback or ebook. When Googling just be sure to include my middle initial, “A” as there are a plethora of Nancy Hughes authors out there. Easier—go to my website: hughescribe.com to read an excerpt. Also, find me on my publisher, Black Opal Books, website—blackopalbooks.com click on Authors tab.

The Innocent Hour, My Fifth novel by Nancy A. Hughes, has been published. It's the sequel to my debut novel, The Dying Hour, and not part of the Trust Trilogy. There's an excerpt on www.hughescribe.com

A Matter of Trust by Nancy A. Hughes -  This new mystery, whose protagonist I named after Kingsley (Lee) Briggs, has been launched. She's Kingsley Alderson Ward, known by her whole name or simply K, but never Lee. You can read an excerpt at www.hughescribe.com. Important! There's no similarity beyond the name. I enjoy naming characters after favorite people. Also, find me on my publisher, Black Opal Books, website—blackopalbooks.com click on Authors tab.
