STORM RISING, the third book in Chris Hauty’s series featuring intelligence agent Hayley Chill, takes us to West Texas, where an insurrection is brewing. But Hayley is there to find out what really happened to her father, and only stumbles on the broader story as she tries to determine if he died a bigoted traitor or a hero. The “deeper state operative,” as Hauty insists on referring to her, is ostensibly an aide to a US senator, but is given free rein to dig deeper into the motives and operations of the group behind the secretive “Storm” movement.

Intelligence operative Hayley Chill is pursing the truth about her father’s mysterious fate, which government officials seem determined to hide from her. But when she stumbles upon a ciphered document under the floorboards of her father’s house, it becomes impossible to ignore the questions about his death. Was it suicide, or was it murder, designed to protect a deeper secret? She fears that what she has discovered may be connected to current rumors of a dark conspiracy, one that no one will substantiate. With permission from her handler to probe deeper, Hayley is led into a terrifying subculture of white supremacy within the United States military. As her investigation intensifies, she uncovers an expansive conspiracy to bring about the secession of several states from the country.

I love watching “The Kitchen” on Food Network. If I am doing cooking or baking for the week, I try to time it for their 1:00-2:00 airing on Sunday afternoon. A couple of weeks ago, they did a segment about great spring menus. Included were lemon meringue cupcakes. My mom loves lemon, so we made these for Mother’s Day. Before you ask, here is the recipe. Now I did not read the recipe before I made these as I recalled what they had done. That is the reason that Tom and I ate the tops of the cupcakes that he scooped out, instead of placing them back on top of the lemon curd. We highly recommend these. Next time I would pipe the meringue in some more interesting designs.
