Book excerpt: A spine-tingling stand-alone thriller of psychological suspense from Edgar-nominated author Brian Freeman, The Bone House Hilary and Mark Bradley are trapped in a web of suspicion. Last year, accusations of a torrid affair with a student cost Mark his teaching job and made the young couple into outcasts in their remote island town off the Lake Michigan coast. Now another teenage girl is found dead on a deserted beach. . . and once again, Mark faces a hostile town convinced of his guilt. Hilary Bradley is determined to prove that Mark is innocent, but she's on a lonely, dangerous quest. Even when she discovers that the murdered girl was witness to a horrific crime years earlier, the police are certain she's throwing up a smoke screen to protect her husband. Only a quirky detective named Cab Bolton seems willing to believe Hilary's story. Hilary and Cab soon find that people in this community are willing to kill to keep their secrets hidden—and to make sure Mark doesn't get away with murder. And with each shocking revelation, even Hilary begins to wonder whether her husband is truly innocent.

Book excerpt: Nora Roberts, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the epic Year One returns with Of Blood and Bone, a new tale of terror and magick in a brand new world. They look like an everyday family living an ordinary life. But beyond the edges of this peaceful farm, unimaginable forces of light and dark have been unleashed. Fallon Swift, approaching her thirteenth birthday, barely knows the world that existed before—the city where her parents lived, now in ruins and reclaimed by nature since the Doom sickened and killed billions. Traveling anywhere is a danger, as vicious gangs of Raiders and fanatics called Purity Warriors search for their next victim. Those like Fallon, in possession of gifts, are hunted—and the time is coming when her true nature, her identity as The One, can no longer be hidden. In a mysterious shelter in the forest, her training is about to begin under the guidance of Mallick, whose skills have been honed over centuries. She will learn the old ways of healing; study and spar; encounter faeries and elves and shifters; and find powers within herself she never imagined. And when the time is right, she will take up the sword, and fight. For until she grows into the woman she was born to be, the world outside will never be whole again.

It is the evening of sixteen-year-old Melody's coming of age ceremony in her grandparents' brownstone.

Download or read book Professional Bone written by Chris Warner and published by Wagon Publishing. This book was released on 2020-05-15 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ron Barton is everybody's All-American. A former small town hero turned college baseball star and Rhodes Scholar, he is the atypical high-pofile physician. Barton's expertise takes him to the Deep South's medical Mecca of Birmingham, Alabama where he excels in the operating room as quickly as he did on the red clay diamonds for Auburn University. Philip Lucci is a rising star in the lucrative field of rehabilitative sports medicine. A former gas station attendant and brick mason turned entrepreneur; he is as much of an anomaly as Dr. Barton. Lucci's laser-like vision to create the McDonald's of worldwide rehabilitative care is as powerful as his insatiable drive for wealth, fame and social rank. Like Barton, he too is a product of the Deep South; but the similarities end there. Lucci is the archetype Machiavellian dictator bent on success. Barton is the consummate professional seeking self-actualization through innovation and heightened care. Unbeknownst, they are on a collision course that will rock Birmingham rehabilitative medicine and ultimately, Wall Street, to their collective cores. A star as bright as Barton's cannot go unnoticed by Lucci's all-discerning focus. Lucci makes him an offer he seemingly cannot refuse--to be a part of his budding rehab empire--at more than double his current salary in an office as ostentatious as his potential benefactor. But refuse Barton does, as he is not in the least impressed by money, or Lucci's phony veneer. Unaccustomed to rebuke, Lucci is incensed by Barton; and as a result, he endeavors to ruin him--as fitting payback. Amanda Lucci, Philip's second wife, is a former Miss Alabama. Bored with the Earthly comforts lavished upon her by her overbearing, compromised husband, she retreats to the high-end escape world of polo, where she meets and falls in love with Dr. Ron Barton, whom she hopelesssly admires for his rugged looks and purposeful existence. Lucci's bodyguards and surveillance team soon learn of the affair and inform their boss. It is just the edge he needs to ruin his recalcitrant detractor. Having already grown tired of Amanda's continued rebuffs, Lucci now has the perfect vengeance plan firmly in place. While Barton is weakened, he is not defeated. He vows revenge. Working through his trusted colleagues he learns of a chink in Lucci's armor. Barton discovers that as Lucci's success grew, so did his competitors, shrinking an already competitive patient pool. To maintain Street expectations, Lucci has resorted to cooking the books. Barton devises his own plan to leak this information to the FBI and raze Lucci's precariously shaky house of cards. But Lucci's resourcefulness proves to be perplexing. Barton again finds himself in the crosshairs--and he is not alone, as his colleagues are now in danger of succumbing to Lucci's growing, fear-fueled malice. As the plot unfolds, it takes the reader on a tortuous, unforgettable courtroom ride. Lucci, the reinvented televangelist catering to a majority black congregation, is first found innnocent of securities fraud as a result of shameless jury pool tainting. However, in the end, Lucci lands predictably in Federal prison; but his long-time dream of building a world-class digital rehabilitative hospital continues nevertheless, albeit with the tweaking of its new standard-bearer, Dr. Ron Barton. Professional Bone is a fast-paced, romantic action thriller that seeks to draw semblance to the ongoing impacts that corporate greed, fraud and indifferent citizenship have had on American free market capitalism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lira and Reyker have lost everything. Including each other. Lira of Stone watched her home burn and her clan fall beneath the sword of the warlord known as the Dragon. She believes the man she loves, a warrior who defected from the Dragon’s army, is dead. Alongside her exiled brother and his band of refugees, she will fight the forces that conquered her island. But the greatest danger may come from Lira herself—with the blood of banished gods running through her veins, she’s become a weapon, and no one is safe from the power of her wrath. Reyker Lagorsson thought he was done being a Dragonman. That was before he saw Lira leap from a cliff and vanish into the sea. Determined to honor her memory by protecting her people, Reyker must feign loyalty to the warlord, undermine him at every turn, and seek alliances with renegade soldiers—without succumbing to the battle-madness that threatens to possess him once more. When the Fallen Ones offer Lira a chance to defeat the Dragon, her quest leads her to a place she never expected—Iseneld, the warlord’s homeland. Her journey into the heart of the Frozen Sun will put her on a collision course with Reyker, costing both of them more than they ever imagined, and leaving her with a terrible choice: to save their countries, she must forsake everything she loves.
