Blood Diamonds of the Lost Bazaar

By: Rickey Pittman

Blood Diamonds of the Lost Bazaar takes readers into two very different worlds—from the Lost Bazaar Art Gallery in small-town North Louisiana into Sierra Leone and its dark, violent and sad world of Blood Diamonds and boy soldiers. Caitlin, a beautiful and talented artist, ends a stormy relationship with her musician boyfriend Hunter and journeys to Sierra Leone. Von Vermeer, a wealthy, charming diamond merchant pursues her, and though attracted to him at first, Caitlin is horrified to discover that he is actually a corrupt, deranged diamond smuggler whose crazed obsession threatens her safety. Caitlin returns to Louisiana with Tejan, her adopted son, and rebuilds her relationship with Hunter, hoping to experience the joy of a loving family and redemptive love. But Vermeer follows her to Louisiana, bringing with him the violence she thought she had escaped, threatening her newly found happiness.

Under the Witch's Mark

By: Rickey E. Pittman

Sheridan didn’t believe in witches, not in 1972, not until he met and fell in love with Bronwynn, a dark-haired beauty in North Dallas. Then, he learned more than he wanted about the sinister side of magic, witchcraft, and satanism hidden in the underbelly of the city. Follow Sheridan and other members of that Led Zeppelin generation as they self-destruct, create beautiful art, and crash against dark forces they don’t understand and are not ready to face.

Stories of the Confederate South

By: Rickey E. Pittman

Though much has been written about the Civil War, relatively little modern historical fiction is written from a Southern point of view. Stories of the Confederate South is a collection of short fiction presenting a variety of Southern characters, events, and issues, and it does so from a uniquely Southern perspective. Pittman carefully researched diaries, biographies, historical events, military records, and social trends to present a collection of stories that tells the story of the true South during and after the War Between the States.
