Political aspirations and ethics collide in the intriguing full-length novel. In a tale as timely as today, when we question whether moral courage exists in our elected leaders, Pictures on the Wall will hold your interest to the very end. A mysterious, enigmatic man contacts the lovely but undistinguished U.S. Senator, Catherine Wells. He implores her to speak with an old Washington crony though he doesn't reveal...why? Catherine later sees the same man seconds before a thundering explosion in which she is severely injured. During her recuperation Catherine enters a period of prolonged depression while enduring horrific nightmares. She suffers physically and emotionally as she struggles to recapture the essence of her spirit. When Catherine finally returns to the Senate, she is metaphysically confronted by the same mysterious man in a surreal scene in her senate office. As Pictures on the Wall rushes toward its climax, Catherine finds herself at the crossroads---where ambition and conscience intersect. In a stunning act of courage and maternal instinct Catherine stands up against terrorism and inspires those of the Islamic faith across the world to stop it.
