At the moment I am putting the finishing touches on my first “who done it” mysteries. I’ve finished a rough draft and am in the revision stage. One thing that won’t be settled until the last moment is the title. It needs to peak insterest without giving away the plot. “The Rusty Kill” is my current working title. Does it peak your interest? Would it get you to read the Amazon summary? If you have any thoughts on the matter, let me know.
The second generational novel follows Gene Will’s life. Gene lived his entire life in and around Star, Idaho. His early life was beset with teenage angst, as are many of our lives at that stage. He broke out of that but reentered it in many ways due to prohibition and the depression. Find out how Gene copes with his personal as well as society’s demons.

The first of the generational novels follows the life of Lillian Wating, born in Penzance, Cornwall, England in 1884. Her life was driven by forces beyond her control (Spanish Flu, women’s suffrage, etc.) and by decisions she made about what role she would play in society. Those decisions were shaped by her personality, her parents’ influence, her sibling’s influence, and the various people she encountered during her life. Join her in her life journey, see if you could handle things as better. (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BB83ND2F ).
I wrote “What Now? A Realistic Apocalypse Novel” (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/47515448-what-now-a-realistic-apocalypse-novel) due to conversations I had with people after Trump was elected. They were worried that nuclear war was imminent. Of course, if that happened, we would all be gone, but if an electromagnetic pulse occurred we would be without modern conveniences; an event considered more likely by many. Anyway, I decided to look at it from that perspective. Thus, this novel considers how people would realistically cope if all their electronic gear were rendered inoperable (no electricity, no phone, no cars, no computers, etc.).
The 10th book in the Allen’s Fund series (“Melanie and Allen’s Fund: Another Life Story” https://www.amazon.in/Melanie-Allens-Fund-Another-Story-ebook/dp/B0B5PP7NMB/ref=sr_1_2?qid=1657801699&refinements=p_27%3AJoe+Ayres&s=books&sr=1-2 ) has to do with how a child’s life course is abruptly altered and how family ties work to bring that life back on course.
The ninth book in the Allen’s Fund series alters course considerably (Allen’s Fund: A Life Story book 9 https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/56390440-allen-s-fund?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=fWSNDUq82L&rank=21 ). Book 9 considers the exploitation of children from a child’s point of view and how that exploitation impacts the child’s adult life.
This eighth book in the series “Allen’s Fund: Payback” (https://www.amazon.com/Allens-Fund-Payback-Joe-Ayres-ebook/dp/B08KRB1JZS/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&qid=1602022147&refinements=p_27%3AJoe+Ayres&s=books&sr=1-1 ) addresses how Allen’s Fund’s enemies seriously attack Allen’s Fund. Will Allen’s Fund survive? If so, what Allen’s Fund do about it? Some real surprises in this Allen’s Fund Novel.
Book 7: “Allen’s Fund: Armageddon” (https://www.amazon.ca/Allens-Fund-Armageddon-Book-7-ebook/dp/B085MLBBZZ)} considers what happens when Allen’s Fund takes on an organized, wealthy, determined International Terrorist Organization operating in the United States. The fight is down and dirty.
