  LADY JUSTICE AND THE WATCHERS

  Suzanne Collins wrote The Hunger Games, Aldous Huxley wrote Brave New World and George Orwell wrote 1984.

  All three novels were about dystopian societies of the future.

  In Lady Justice and the Watchers, Walt sees the world we live in today through the eyes of a group who call themselves ‘The Watchers’.

  Oscar Levant said that there’s a fine line between genius and insanity.

  After reading Lady Justice and the Watchers, you may realize as Walt did that there’s also a fine line separating the life of freedom that we enjoy today and the totalitarian society envisioned in these classic novels.

  Quietly and without fanfare, powerful interests have instituted policies that have eroded our privacy, health and individual freedoms.

  Is the dystopian society still a thing of the distant future or is it with us now disguised as a wolf in sheep’s clothing?

  WOLVES IN SHEEP’S CLOTHING

 
In August of 2011, I completed the fifth novel in the Lady Justice mystery/comedy series, Lady Justice and the Sting.

  As I always do, I sent copies of the completed manuscript to several friends and acquaintances for their feedback and comments before sending the manuscript to the publisher.

  Since the plot involved a holistic physician, I sent a copy to Dr. Edward Pearson in Florida.

  Dr. Pearson loved the premise of the book and the style of writing, particularly as it related to alternative healthcare, natural products and Walt's transformation into a healthier lifestyle.

  In subsequent conversations, Dr. Pearson shared that he had been looking for a book that he could share with his patients, colleagues and peers that would spread his message in a format that would capture their imagination and their hearts.

  The Sting was very close to what he had been looking for and he made the suggestion that maybe we could work together to produce just the right book.

  As I reflected on this idea, I realized that Walt's skirmishes with pharmaceutical companies, corrupt politicians, doctors, nurses, hospitals, bodily afflictions and a healthier lifestyle were not confined to just The Sting, but were scattered throughout all six of the

  Lady Justice mystery/comedy novels.

  Using The Sting as the basis of the new book, I went through the manuscripts of the other five Lady Justice novels and pulled out chapters and vignettes that fleshed out the story of Walt's medical adventures.

  Thus, Wolves In Sheep's Clothing was born.

  Dr. Pearson is currently using Wolves in conjunction with his New Medicine Foundation to help spread the word about healthcare alternatives.
