Bill Johnstone spent most of his working years as a coal miner, first in England, then in Alberta, and finally on Vancouver Island. Born in 1908 in Northumberland, England, he began working in the pits as a hand miner at the age of thirteen. After immigrating to the Canadian Prairies, where he alternated between working as a farmhand and a miner in the Alberta coal mines. In 1936, he moved to Vancouver Island where he mastered nearly every phase of coal mining from working on the picking tables to shooting explosive charges. He also studied mining engineering and mine rescue and was injured in a cave-in. Not long before his retirement, after 52 years in the mining industry, Bill Johnston became district superintendent of the Canadian Collieries mines near Cumberland.

Intrigue, murder and quiet whispers have haunted the coal mining town of Sweet Spot, Kentucky for years, but not even the ‘law’ wants to dig deeper to find the perpetrator. Haley Alston, a young woman coal miner stands in the center of lies and deceit. The Prescott family owns the prosperous coal mines and all it entails. A strike is in the making as the youngest Prescott son, Kyle, is killed, leaving the young woman coal miner wealthy beyond imagination. But she is not out for money but for the love of Marcus Prescott, Kyle Prescott’s half brother, who has been deeply hurt by his first wife and has no trust for women. Haley, who lives with her grandfather, is the epitome of an abused child, but no one saw fit to see her through her pain and now she is an adult in trouble. Characters of the mountains flit about in Coal Dust, bringing laughter and tears in this romantic story of the hill folk. In the midst of the confusion wrought by Birdie, Haley’s dead mother, old wounds surface as steadily and surely as the coal from the mountains. It brings a climax that will hold the reader transfixed until the end.

The town of Ladysmith was one of the most important coal-mining communities on Vancouver Island during the early twentieth century. The Ladysmith miners had a reputation for radicalism and militancy and engaged in bitter struggles for union recognition and economic justice, most notably the Great Strike of 1912-14. This strike, one of the longest and most violent labour disputes in Canadian history, marked a watershed in the history of the town and the coal industry.

In 2010, a mine explosion killed twenty-nine coal miners in Raleigh County, West Virginia. Obama's Deadliest Cover-Up goes beyond the official narrative of the 2010 Upper Big Branch (UBB) Mine disaster to disclose the dark truth. In this daring exposé, Don Blankenship reveals how far the government will go to keep its dirty secrets, even if it means disparaging deceased miners and sending innocent Americans to prison. Using government documents, witness testimony, and science, Blankenship pieces together the Obama-Biden administration's responsibility for the explosion. Blankenship explains how the government used prevarication, lies, and document destruction to bury the truth. Blankenship calls the American media "Pinocchio" and backs it up. Blankenship demonstrates that America's elite, America's media, and America's DOJ hid the UBB truth and says, "They all have blood on their hands." An unflinching look at corruption in America, Obama's Deadliest Cover-up issues a dire warning: Our government will do anything to "get what it wants."

Lizzie's mother is dead, and left in the care of her prim older sister, the 15-year-old fears her carefree ways are over. But when tragedy strikes again, Lizzie discovers a sinister web of lies and deception, of murders past and present. Fierce resentments and racial tensions boil beneath the illusion of civilization. Soon, Lizzie finds herself ensnared in a secret that stretches from the opium dens of British Columbia and the alleys of San Francisco to the jungles of Panama and beyond -- and it's a secret that the murderer will do anything to protect.
