AnnaPolis Summers

Before your eyes, this girl who considers herself a “boat nothing, Fifth Mate” (which doesn’t exist) relates her story. Obviously, the heroine is an insecure middle-schooler. Anna Polis is named after her father’s favorite town, Annapolis. James Herbert Polis thinks it funny that he calls his only daughter after a place that he loves. Abigail Hawthorne Polis, Anna's mom, is strong willed but loves her husband fiercely. She follows his lead on most issues. These exceptional parents only reinforce the young girl's feelings of inferiority. Anna's appearance is less than acceptable in her mind.

Sail aboard the yacht, Honey, to beautiful Annapolis as this young girl faces not only developing into a woman but bullying and betrayal at the hands of friends. Later, an even more formidable threat causes a struggle for her very life.

Local Author Receives National Recognition

 

Lake Buena Vista, FL (8/5/2017) – The Annual 2017 Florida Authors and Publishers Association President’s Book Awards recognized CONFESSIONS OF AN ASSASSIN by Linda Heavner Gerald, in the category of Fiction, as a Silver medal winner.

 

Hosted by the Florida Authors and Publishers Association, this prestigious national award is open to books published between 2016 and 2017.

CONFESSIONS OF AN ASSASSIN is a FICTION published by Lime Pie Publishers .

 

Confessions of an Assassin is the story of Catherine Carnegie.  Although she was born to a wealthy, prestigious family from New York, her dream was all things Southern.  “Cat” finally obtained everything that she dreamed of since her childhood. Once established in the loveliest home in a small southern town, she meets a vaguely familiar man from her college days who changes her life.  What begins as a fun diversion attending state dinners in Washington, soon immerses her in a dangerous secret government agency.  Despite attempts to withdraw from their clutches, she realizes that they are ruthless and unwilling to ever let her leave.  Her assignments become more dangerous; she is sent to various places all over the globe.  Like a drug, the danger escalates, she is addicted to that lifestyle. Eventually, she receives her most heart-wrenching assignment in Bali, Indonesia which will change her life forever. Then the package arrives without warning which sets her free.
