I am so pleased to be on your blog with you today, Gwen. I was thrilled when you offered to be one of the stops on the tour. You have written such exceptional books in a number of challenging genres. It is a pleasure to visit and have the opportunity to explain a little about my newest book Detour on the Eternal Road. Thank you so much for this opportunity. I've included the blurb and other helpful information below.
BLURB:
Sam and James are dragged into another strange assignment when a couple of souls on The Eternal Road drop off the radar. Archangel Michael gives them specific orders to resolve the issue and get Billy Ray Chitwood, the national race car champion, and Dale Earnhardt, his guide, back on the task of finding Billy’s Eternal Home.
Finally, meeting up with Billy Ray and Dale, the foursome finds themselves in the future where World War III has devastated the country. The team discovers the cause of the start of the war and vows to mitigate that circumstance and save the world from devastation. They encounter their old nemesis, Lucifer, who has in mind trading preventing the war in exchange for Sam accepting his offer to be his queen.
Since Lucifer’s offer is a non-starter, Sam and James must overcome Lucifer’s interference and work to change the course of history, or humankind is doomed.

EXCERPT:
The old man sighs. “I live about ten miles out of town, and I have no idea how I got to this bench. I would like to go home but have no way to get there.”
The young man uses his thumb and pushes his wide-brim hat back on his head. “You have any family?”
“I think I used to, but I can’t rightly tell you if they’re still around. I might live alone.”
“I see. Well, we’ll be glad to help, but we have a job to do first. Will you be okay until we get back? Shouldn’t take more than a half hour.”
“Mighty obliged to you. Yes, I can wait a half hour.”
“All right, then. You stay here in the shade, and we’ll go over to that corral there to arrest some rustlers.”
“You a lawman?”
“Yup. I’m the marshal hereabouts. Name’s Earp. Wyatt Earp. Them’s my deputies.”
“Pleased to meet you, Wyatt. I’ll be right here awaitin’.”
“Good for you, pops. Don’t you worry; everything will be all right.”
“Bless you, son.”
Wyatt touches the brim of his felt hat with two fingers. “You stay right here, and I’ll come back and get you.”
“Yes, sir, Marshall.”
“Call me Wyatt.”
“Yes, sir, Wyatt.”
The corners of Wyatt’s mouth turn up. The creases at the corner of his eyes intensify slightly, and he nods with satisfaction. Ready to get on, he turns and walks back to the other men. He doesn’t say anything to them but looks back at the elderly bloke as they continue down the street.
