    About this ebook

    In this prequel to Perfect Circle, friends and foes with political or social sway intersect with givers and takers, making it more and more difficult to find One Safe Place, to protect and preserve love, and maybe to safeguard his or her life.

    In One Safe Place, lightning strikes of dilemmas and storms of lustful deeds intertwine with the well-thought citizens, as well as the criminal minded. Under Seattle’s cloudy skies, the morally minded kiss the sexual deviant for advancement of careers and social status. Once again Alvin L.A. Horn rains down love, lust, and crime in the pursuit of clear skies in the Emerald City.

    Everyone wants and needs one safe place, and former secret service agent Psalms Black puts thoughts and actions into his social righteousness. He knows how to exact revenge by any means necessary. His sexy lover, Gabrielle Brandywine, used to be the most powerful woman in the world as the Secretary of State of the United States. She still has clout, but she also has personal issues that can derail Psalms’ desired purpose in life. He and his friends are stealthy and tend to interpret human nature with skillful cleverness. However, their own lives, love, and sexual issues must be controlled to complete missions.

    Life is complicated when the deviant creep out of waters and from behind snow-capped mountains, mixing with politics, sex, and dark money shadows. If evil acts occur, you better hope Psalms Black and his friends don’t find out, or else someone could come up missing. Whether someone is on the right side of morality or if someone steps over the line, everyone wants and needs One Safe Place.
