The Blind Detective
Steven Hawthorne is blind. He currently works as a detective for the police department, but he was previously a cop. Several years ago, while in pursuit of a suspect, he lost his eyesight in an explosive car accident. Now, Steven uses his investigative instincts and his increased situational awareness to solve mysteries. His Black Labrador guide dog, Missy, also has a talent for sniffing out clues. Together with their friend Jeff York, the team solves a number of mysteries.
In "Shark Bite Fever," Kathy White is kidnapped by a mob-style loan shark. In "Every Dog Gets Her Day," Missy emerges as a formidable detective in her own right. When a body is found at a dog show and a prize Chihuahua goes missing, it's up to the trio to solve the case and save the show. In "The Enigmatic Echoes," the challenge is to locate a valuable jewel that's gone missing from the Crystal Crown Hotel in Las Vegas. Finally, in "Wedding Blues," Steven, Jeff, and Missy follow a series of scavenger hunt-style clues across the city in pursuit of a stolen wedding ring.
Written for children 10 to 12 years old, these stories of mystery and friendship will ignite young readers' curiosity, prompting conversations about living with blindness, guide dog etiquette, blindness-friendly occupations, and the value of diversity and inclusion.

Howdy just wanted to give you a brief heads up and let you know a few of the images aren’t loading properly.
I’m not sure why but I think its a linking issue. I’ve tried it in two different web browsers and both show the same results.

Hey would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re working with?
I’m looking to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a
tough time making a decision between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and
Drupal. The reason I ask is because your layout seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for
something unique. P.S Sorry for being off-topic but I had to ask!
To answer your question, I created my blog using WordPress, but there was some custom coding/styling done for me.
