Another Southside

Mystery

Chicago has ANOTHER SOUTHSIDE! Hidden in plain sight. Enigmatic and complex. Full of intrigue, and as dangerous as you can imagine. Just the sort of place Jake Thompson, the city’s quirkiest crime fighter, would ply his trade. * * * Del Staecker is a hidden gem in the literary community—nothing short of a magician. His character development and plot twists are equaled only by his versatility in both content and style. Another Southside is ample proof of his talents. Relegated to the dregs of duties, contrarian Detective Jake Thompson waits for retirement, avoiding official interaction, using a local coffee shop as his unofficial office. But while part of him wants to be left alone, that’s rarely an option in Another Southside , where Jake winds up facing all manner of mayhem and a host of unbelievable denizens, made thoroughly believable by Staecker’s way with words. It’s Jake’s essence you’ll come to appreciate. With the turning of a phrase and evocative description, Staecker brings Jake to life. If you’re from Chicago, you will undoubtedly relate. But even if you can’t find the Windy City on a map, if you want a great read, this is it. And if you’re drawn to police drama, you’ll love it. Del is also one of the very few writers who pens like a native, no matter what locale forms the backdrop of his stories Del writes like an insider as his characters take you along on an intriguing ride. You know the old joke, “that’s several hours I wish I had back”. In the case of Another Southside , I yearn for several more hours and can’t wait to see what Staecker creates next.

Daddy's Boots

Picture Book

This award-winning deployment book for kids is a favorite of all major military branches: Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, Coast Guard, National Guard, and Reserves in military books and best deployment books for children. The illustrator has masterfully drawn the lovable and relatable characters to be racially non-specific; Bean is non-gender specific, as well. It’s Boot’s task to take Daddy where he’s needed, but it’s Daddy’s job to explain why. In only 37 pages, the author provides a valuable tool for caregivers to explain to service members’ children why their daddy leaves, what he does, and how he helps others while he’s away. As it would be impossible to explain every job, rank, and branch specific name for every object and service member, the author succeeds in covering the essentials in a generic and loving way. Daddy is a soldier. Boots are preparing to take him away. If Bean can hide Boots, will Daddy be able to stay? Daddy explains the many jobs he’s called to do, and how his work isn’t that much different than the work other daddies do. Being deployed is a fact of life for soldiers of all military branches. Humanitarian efforts, operations other than war (OOW), peaceful or wartime missions – a soldier’s duty is to be there. Sometimes it means leaving little ones behind wondering why. Daddy’s Boots is a loving description of a few quiet moments between a father and his child, as Daddy prepares to deploy for his job with the military.
