The Helper

"In the psychological mystery, The Helper, three lives intersect in New York City...good characters and an interesting plotline...an engaging thriller using Native American shamanic traditions." San Francisco Book ReviewThe inner journey of Martha Beauvais, a First Nation descendant, provides the underpinnings of The Helper, which is set at the turn of the millennium when a self-appointed angel of death has embarked upon a killing spree of NYC street children, and a dark and troubled past is disrupting the life of David Lacey, a forty-something, Upper West Side, stay-at-home father. When Lacey's partner disregards him one too many times, David embarks on a night of debauchery, which goes awry and leads to a fight for survival on a Chelsea street. Alerted by a vision seen by Martha's grandmother, a Lakota shaman, Martha and her grandmother rescue Lacey and take him to their home in Connecticut, where the grandmother leads him to a non-ordinary world of reality that ultimately reveals the identity of The Helper, as well as the man responsible for Lacey's troubled past.
