THE CASE OF THE BLACK PEARL RING | DESSERT IS SERVED


The Case of the Black Pearl Ring | Dessert Is Served

Wade learned from Gina how to depend on God while on assignment. Though this assignment was more difficult then most, he prayed every chance he had. 

Cindy, Wade, and the team are on their way to rescue Yahreh. Jim and Joy, two other team members, meet them in front of the door where Yahreh is being held. Yahreh is Wade and Gina’s son. Read this excerpt from my screenplay.

FS/ CAMERA BACKING OUT
Cindy and her team arrived in front of Samata’s door first. George leaned up against the door and listens for any noise.
GEORGE:
“I hear a television, but no other noise.”

George said quietly.

Jim and Joy arrived and keep watch toward the northside staircase while Sam and Bart keep watch in the opposite direction.

MS WADE
Wade reached into his pack and pulled out his levers and proceeded to work the lock on the door. Holding his breath, he worked quietly.

FS TEAM
The team stood in the corridor, adrenalin high, but held back by their professional training. Every eye is turned toward the doors scanning the area when they hear Wade exhale.  

MS/ TWO-SHOT
Wade looked up and nodded his head and Cindy smiled.

FS
Cindy looked around the team to assess whether they are aware and ready. Every eye was on her and she looked back at Wade, seeing that he was already prepared to enter the apartment. Cindy nodded her head and Wade opened the door, quietly.

FS CAMERA FOLLOWS
The doors swung open and Brad and Ben walked into the kitchen area. Entrée’s were out and it was time for dessert. Brad showed Ben where to find the tickets and how the ticket informed them of table numbers and occupants for each order.

They both picked up a small tray and a ticket, then filled their individual trays with desserts matching the tickets. When each order was completed, they both walked toward the door to enter the banquet room.

This is a little excerpt of my screenplay when the confrontation begins. Will Yahreh be rescued? Is he still alive? Will the team make if out of there together? I look forward to share more with you without giving the whole thing away.

The path of the righteous is like the morning sun, shining ever brighter till the full light of day. (Proverbs 4:18)   The Path My days are filled with work. I work full time, caring for the lawn, flower garden, and I am a painter of oil on canvas, as well as a writer and blogger. I am Laveda D. Rockford. My Mother, her doctors say, is in stage four cancer and has been since 2015. However, we are blessed that she can still do a lot of things on her own. In fact, I took her to see my brother in Texas and she will be staying with him for a while. Her next injections are not until later this month. I have not had time to write even though I have started my third book. The publisher that I contacted to publish my second book gave me an estimate but when I was ready to pay, they did not contact me again. I am wondering about this as I do have the funds and would like to begin. If you know of a publisher that is interested in a Christian novel, please send me the information so I c...

Ready For This | Laveda D. Rockford

  Ready for This Winter is shortly coming to an end, When spring colors do appear, What wonderful sights you see in shrubs and trees, Flowers of white, red, and yellow, with leaves of green, Shouts the joys of the spring, Singing loud before summers day, Oh, it is a wonderful day, When the earth wakes from sleep. © 2024 Laveda D.

Flower Garden Season Composition | Laveda D. Rockford

  Flower Garden Season Composition | Laveda D. Rockford I am trying my best in the heat of early summer to complete my flower garden borders. I have been working on this vision for almost two years and have finally reached a point where I can show you and you can understand. The newest section will contain a small patio area with table and chairs surrounded on one side with Buxus as a screen of privacy. Burgundy Plum and Cherry trees, as well as Sand Cherry and a few tulips will welcome spring weather. Then Iris will rise up until they burst into their beauty. Purple, yellow, and a burgundy and white combination. Oh, what a delight. Late spring into summer, Yarrow (Achillea) rise higher and throw on their crown of flowers acting as a forerunner into summer’s beauty. Phlox, Whirling Butterflies (Gaura) purple Salvia, Shasta Daisy, Hydrangea and Clematis all vie for attention in the summer sun. The Rose of Sharon, single and double, tree and bush, will bring forth their beaut...
