Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stealing Fatima's Hand is an unforgettable collection of interconnected narratives presenting an alternative view of Morocco - a country not of labyrinthine alleys, Kasbahs, and smoky tea rooms - but a more madcap Morocco, one left to be discovered after all the coach tours depart.Imagine the impossible: one finds oneself in a heady and mysterious locale on the edge of North Africa, a country replete with colorful characters, incomprehensible customs and taboos, a spoken language lacking an alphabet, often frustrating religious practices and, in spite of all this capital 'E' exoticism, one still doesn't want to marry a local? Or turn a decrepit ryad into a boutique hotel? Or write for the travel page in the Sunday paper? Carolyn Th riault does more than imagine it.After making a rather drunken New Year's Resolution to toss aside their conventional lifestyle and pension plans, Carolyn, a somewhat cynical, snarky ex-pat and self-proclaimed square-peg, with her photographer husband Chris decide to walk away from their comfortable jobs in the Land of the Round Doorknobs (Canada) to travel the world. Because their long-suffering attempts at financial independence (weekly lottery tickets) have not borne any fruit, the only apparent means to rectify this situation they believe is to teach English overseas. And Morocco seems to fit the bill. But does it?Unconventional and candid - Stealing Fatima's Hand stands out as an irreverent black sheep in the literary travel genre, succeeding in undoing for Morocco everything that Peter Mayle has done for Provence. The book spans two years of Carolyn's experiences in Rabat, where with humor and honesty she struggles with Moroccan bureaucracy, sexual harassment, the threat of terrorism, devious students, randy co-teachers, and the temptation of having French pastries washed down with gin & tonics for every meal. All this in a country, where apart from her, the only vegetarians are the sheep and the goats.

Book excerpt: As the last light of All–Hallows' Eve falls on a small town at the tip of Cape Cod, Father Manuel Furtado begins his nightly ritual of gin and pills, prayer, and hours spent writing feverishly in his ledger. With the deep luxury of the chemicals in his body, he copies passages from Saint Augustine and Martin Heidegger, disciplined in his desire to flesh out his ever–building demons. But, unlike his usual uninterrupted reflection, this night there is a crash, sudden enough to pull Father Manny from the rectory and toward his church, Our Lady of Fatima. He finds a man there — his childhood friend Sarafino, whom he has not seen in decades — frail with illness and desperate to tell the priest about his recurring visits from the Virgin Mary. Despite Father Manny's grave doubts about Sarafino and his visions, he lets his old friend into his home and his life, and this single act ignites a series of events that challenge the faith of this fishing village, the parish, and of Father Manny himself. Striking and lovingly detailed, Stealing Fatima is the story of a priest's search for redemption in a town where, even in these modern times, the divine is possible.

Book excerpt: 'I thought about the files I had read in London. The Vatican had assisted the Nazis. They believed that communism was a greater threat than any Adolph Hitler posed.' Stealing from angels is the story of a young Irish man who leaves his hometown to escape a life of petty crime only to stumble into a life of major crime in New York. When he meets Maria, life takes on new meaning. Together they move to Italy, to Maria's hometown, in search of legitimate success but become irrevocably connected to the murder of Pope John Paul and the third secret of Fatima. When his relationship with Maria becomes strained, he finds himself in possession of the world's most sought after secret and with no one in the world to trust. What unfolds is the story of one man's struggle with faith, success, and corruption.

Book excerpt: Spies, thieves, codebreakers & counterfeiters: All three Secrets & Spies books in one set! TO STEAL A HEART A master spy and a beautiful thief find love and intrigue in each other’s arms. Forced to do the bidding of a corrupt government minister, tightrope-walking thief Marianne de Bonnard agrees to plant incriminating evidence in the offices of France’s most notorious spymaster. But when her wickedly handsome target appears—with an outrageous proposition—Marianne’s torn between fear and an unwelcome spark of desire. Nicolas Valette has plans for his graceful trespasser. Her unique skills make her perfect for his next mission, but she refuses his offer for fear of disobeying her family’s tormenter. When their mutual enemy auctions off her virginity to the highest bidder, Nicolas leaps at the chance to buy her cooperation. Both want revenge, but perhaps their joint adventures will uncover something even more delicious . . . A RAVEN’S HEART When bookish codebreaker Heloise Hampden cracks the enemy’s most recent code, French agents are sent to silence her. But it’s the agent assigned to protect her who poses the greatest threat to her heart: William de l’Isle, Viscount Ravenwood. Raven’s imprisonment has made him wary of love, but his heart still pounds whenever he’s within ten paces of Heloise. He’ll do whatever it takes to keep her safe—even if that means taking her to Spain as an unwilling hostage. Protecting her from danger will be a challenge; protecting her from desire will be pure agony. A COUNTERFEIT HEART As Sabine de la Tour tosses piles of forged banknotes onto a bonfire in a Paris park, she bids a reluctant farewell to her double life as a notorious criminal. She must escape France—or face the guillotine. Her only hope of surviving in England is to strike a deal with the very spy she’s spent her career outrunning. Richard Hampden, Viscount Lovell, will risk anything to protect England, even make a pact with the greatest counterfeiter in Europe, Philippe Lacorte. But when a cheeky, gamine-faced beauty proves herself to be Lacorte, Richard is shocked—and more than a little aroused. This cunning minx offers an irresistible challenge. Richard will help her. But in return, he wants something even Sabine cannot fake.

Book excerpt: Sahih Bukhari is a collection of sayings and deeds of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), also known as the Sunnah. The reports of the Prophet's (saw) sayings and deeds are called ahadeeth. Imam Bukhari lived a couple of centuries after the Prophet's (saw) death and worked extremely hard to collect his ahadeeth. Each report in his collection was checked for compatibility with the Qur'an, and the veracity of the chain of reporters had to be painstakingly established. Bukhari's collection is recognized by the overwhelming majority of the Muslim world to be one of the most authentic collections of the Sunnah of the Prophet(pbuh).

Book excerpt: Fatima grew up living with her sister and their abusive uncle. She sold scarves and polished shoes on the streets of Kabul, Afghanistan. Whatever money she made, her uncle would take from her and spend it on alcohol. Fatima's dream was to go to school and have a career. Her uncle on the other hand had other plans for her. For a bit of money, he sold her off to a complete stranger, whom she had to marry and leave her sister, Hawa behind. She thought now that she was married, she was going to live her dreams and go to school. But her husband listened to whatever his mother would tell him to do. He turned out to be just as abusive as her uncle. Married life was completely different from what Fatima thought it would be. She faces many hardships but gets stronger each day.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first study to undertake a wide-ranging comparison of invocations of al-Andalus across the Arab and Hispanic worlds. Around the globe, concerns about interfaith relations have led to efforts to find earlier models in Muslim Iberia (al-Andalus). This book examines how Muslim Iberia operates as an icon or symbol of identity in twentieth and twenty-first century narrative, drama, television, and film from the Arab world, Spain, and Argentina. Christina Civantos demonstrates how cultural agents in the present ascribe importance to the past and how dominant accounts of this importance are contested. Civantos’s analysis reveals that, alongside established narratives that use al-Andalus to create exclusionary, imperial identities, there are alternate discourses about the legacy of al-Andalus that rewrite the traditional narratives. In the process, these discourses critique their imperial and gendered dimensions and pursue intercultural translation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Urban Africa is undergoing a transformation unlike anywhere else in the world, as unprecedented numbers of people migrate to rapidly expanding cities. But despite the growing body of work on urban Africa, the lives of these new city dwellers have received relatively little attention, particularly when it comes to crucial issues of power and inequality. This interdisciplinary collection brings together contributions from urban studies, geography, and anthropology to provide new insights into the social and political dynamics of African cities, as well as uncovering the causes and consequences of urban inequality. Featuring rich new ethnographic research data and case studies drawn from across the continent, the collection shows that Africa's new urbanites have adapted to their environs in ways which often defy the assumptions of urban planners. By examining the experiences of these urban residents in confronting issues of power and agency, the contributors consider how such insights can inform more effective approaches to research, city planning and development both in Africa and beyond.
