BOOK THREE OF THE GUARDIAN SERIES	On Friday, June 21st, Detective Simon Farge, chief investigator with the Plainsland Police Department's Missing Persons Division, opened an envelope, addressed in pencil and bearing no return address. The content of the envelope was a short letter, also written in pencil, on three-hole notebook paper. The handwriting appeared to be that of a child, still learning the art of cursive, and of course, unsigned. The note was short and to the point. "Dear Mr. Farge, Look for Sally Morgan in Overland Park in a trailer by the lake." There was no other writing on the paper.
	Simon placed the letter back in the envelope and opened the drawer of his desk that he had labeled "Crackpots". He glanced at the postmark that read Fort Collins, Colorado and pitched the letter into the drawer, slamming it shut. After all, how could a letter from a kid over a thousand miles away have anything to do with anything at all? By July 6th he'd know the answer to that question, or at least part of the answer. It was perhaps, the biggest mistake of his career…

The No. 2 Pencil Book 3, The Guardian Series The War of Pedophilia By C. H. Foertmeyer ASIN B004SUOYGE File Size 237K Publisher KDP -- 1st Edition Kindle Publishing Children go missing every day, taken by pedophiles who lurk in the shadows just waiting for the perfect moment to claim an innocent life. In his latest book, Foertmeyer creates a frightening and heart warming supernatural tale of protection, punishment, hope and redemption. 12 year old T.J. McGraw wishes somehow he could free the world of pedophiles. By day, he worries about his little sister being taken. At night he dreams of a little girl, stolen from her home and transported to a dark, frightening place. Every night, more details are added to his dream. He sees the pedophile's escape route, sees the street names, and finally sees the building where the little girl is held. Based on TV updates, the police and FBI have no idea where the little girl might be, so T.J. decides to contact the police detective in charge, Simon Farge. Using a school pencil, he writes a note to Det. Farge on notebook paper, telling where the little girl can be found. When the note arrives by mail, Farge attributes it to a crackpot and ignores it, with horrible results. Days later, the little girl is found dead, exactly where T.J.'s note said she would be. T. J. is devastated by his failure to save the little girl in his dreams, but he's made believers out of Det. Farge and his FBI counterpart. Over time, he has more dreams of stolen children, and sends more messages to Det. Farge and the FBI. And he meets the Messenger Guardian delivering information to him in dreams: a shape shifting guardian angel masquerading as a bobcat. Criss-crossing the country as a team, Farge and the FBI work to save the stolen children T.J. reveals in his notes. And all the humans involved, however skeptical they might be, come to believe in the guardian angels determined to protect children from pedophiles. Book Three of the Guardian Series can easily be a stand-alone novel, but readers might benefit from reading the first two books as background so they have a broader understanding of how the Guardians work and why they were sent to Earth in the first place. I love this series because I'd like to believe such guardians exist. Review by Laurel Johnson
