It's Friday and time for more of Final Paradox. We're up to chapters 27 and 28

In these chapters, you'll find out just how EVIL one person can be and how much misery he can cause. But it's not as if any one feels badly for Roger and Bronwyn. Lots to think about here! 

Does anyone know what love is? In Chapter 18, Norma Dinnick is completely puzzled. Amid all this fraud and deceit, does love and forgiveness stand a chance. Believe it or not, this is a pretty big love story. 

Have you ever had to deal with elder abuse? Harry does in Chapter 8. 

Are Peter and Roger going to kill each other? [Chapter 9 and 11]

And here's a photo of Natasha, the woman who teaches Harry much about love! 

Next posting begins Friday, April 19th. 

I’d love to hear your reactions. Some of you may find the characters in the story pretty weird so watch out and tell me what you think! 

Years ago, I had a client, who became the inspiration for the character, Norma Dinnick whom you’ll meet in the first chapter of Final Paradox. Back then, I followed a frail, hobbling little old lady up the staircase of her apartment building to find no one in the apartment above her. She insisted that there was a "bad woman" living in the apartment above her in the building which she owned. In fact, the apartment was completely empty without a stick of furniture. Regardless, my client insisted I evict her because she was only there at night. What could I do? That’s how Norma Dinnick first came to life.

Hi Mary, love your new about me.  It is very intriguing.  I really makes me want to read the book.  Have you thought of using that back-story for your synopsis?  Or maybe it just me always intrigued by back story :)

Your father's a sick old man but determined to be independent. They kick him out of retirement homes. That's Harry's problem in Final Paradox. What would you do?

Tomorrow, Monday April First [and it's no trick] the next installment of Final Paradox will be posted. If you've met Norma Dinnick yet, do you think she's a helpless old lady in need of protection...or?

Serialization of Final Paradox coming this Friday, March 29th. 

It's terrific to find so many friends and readers here on Wattpad! “Conduct in Question, the first in The Osgoode Trilogy”, has had more than 900,000 “reads”.

If you like legal suspense thrillers you’ll find out what it’s like being a lawyer exposing a massive fraud with a little murder thrown in, read “Conduct in Question.” It’s still posted and so, if you’d like to sample it while you wait for Final Paradox, please take a look.

I’ll be posting “Final Paradox” [the second in the trilogy] in serialized form starting Friday March 29th and each and every Monday and Friday until May 3rd. When you read it, you’ll have to decide where to draw the line—between lucidity and madness! 

Each Wednesday, let’s have a Q &A. Ask me anything about the novels and I’ll have some questions too. One of the first questions will be –what movie actor should play our hero, Harry Jenkins. 

I’ll be running some giveaway contests on so stay posted.
You can find me on my website, maryemartintrilogies where you'll see more about my five novels. I'm also on Goodreads, Smashwords where you can download my novels and on Amazon Author Central.
Please let anyone else, who might be interested, know about this serialization of Final Paradox.

@flightofideas24 So glad you enjoyed Harry. Final Paradox has its disturbing moments too, but no serial killer. On March 29th, you'll be able to read the first part of Final Paradox and answer questions about Conduct in Question to win prizes.

Do you like legal thrillers? Want to know what it’s like being a lawyer exposing a massive fraud with a little murder thrown in?  

In Final Paradox, the second in The Osgoode Trilogy is coming soon in serialized form starting March 29th. And you’ll have to decide where to draw the line—between lucidity and madness.
