Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In January 2007, two boys were found in the home of Michael J. Devlin, a “nice enough guy” who managed a pizza parlor in Kirkwood, Missouri. One boy had been kidnapped four days earlier. The other, Shawn Hornbeck, had been missing for four years. How and why did this fifteen-year old, whose face appeared on thousands of milk cartons and “Have You Seen Me?” posters, stay with his abductor in plain view for four years, only an hour from his family home? From award-winning journalist Kristina Sauerwein comes this riveting story of the American kidnapping that startled the nation and catapulted the chilling reality of Stockholm Syndrome into the spotlight. Shawn had many opportunities to ask for help: he was left alone in his kidnapper’s apartment many times, and had phone and Internet access. But he never tried to escape. This is the first time the full story has been told, complete with interviews with law enforcement, and top psychological experts; and a real-life happy ending.

Book excerpt: PULITZER PRIZE WINNER • A “vivid and devastating” (The New York Times) portrait of an indomitable girl—from acclaimed journalist Andrea Elliott “From its first indelible pages to its rich and startling conclusion, Invisible Child had me, by turns, stricken, inspired, outraged, illuminated, in tears, and hungering for reimmersion in its Dickensian depths.”—Ayad Akhtar, author of Homeland Elegies ONE OF THE TEN BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: The New York Times • ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: The Atlantic, The New York Times Book Review, Time, NPR, Library Journal In Invisible Child, Pulitzer Prize winner Andrea Elliott follows eight dramatic years in the life of Dasani, a girl whose imagination is as soaring as the skyscrapers near her Brooklyn shelter. In this sweeping narrative, Elliott weaves the story of Dasani’s childhood with the history of her ancestors, tracing their passage from slavery to the Great Migration north. As Dasani comes of age, New York City’s homeless crisis has exploded, deepening the chasm between rich and poor. She must guide her siblings through a world riddled by hunger, violence, racism, drug addiction, and the threat of foster care. Out on the street, Dasani becomes a fierce fighter “to protect those who I love.” When she finally escapes city life to enroll in a boarding school, she faces an impossible question: What if leaving poverty means abandoning your family, and yourself? A work of luminous and riveting prose, Elliott’s Invisible Child reads like a page-turning novel. It is an astonishing story about the power of resilience, the importance of family and the cost of inequality—told through the crucible of one remarkable girl. Winner of the J. Anthony Lukas Book Prize • Finalist for the Bernstein Award and the PEN/John Kenneth Galbraith Award

Soon after his arrival, members of the household die mysteriously and Jacqueline is suspected of murder. Despite her fear of the stranger, Jacqueline befriends him and he helps her escape. While running from the slave catchers, they meet conjurers, a loup-garou, and a traveling circus of supernatural freaks. She relies on ancestral magic to guide her and finds the strength to conquer her fears on her journey."Vampires are terrifying creatures, driven by insatiable, cannibalistic hunger and murderous urges. I was glad to have one at my side..." So writes Michelle Renee Lane in her chilling and charming adventure INVISIBLE CHAINS.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For thousands of years mankind has been enslaved. For the longest time real chains were used to enslave us. In modern times, the forces that be evolved from using real chains to invisible chains. After thousands of years of wars, famine, plagues, disease, and man’s inhumanity to both man and other life forms on the planet, is humanity finally ready for an evolutionary step? A step that will dissolve the invisible chains that enslave us. After a lifetime of research, Mr. Brown has gathered together the keys to our past that he believes will unlock the next evolutionary steps. His research covers the clues left throughout history in mythology, religions, and philosophy. He explains why we are where we are today. Then he examines some of the many ways we can recover our humanity and evolve as he believes we were intended. The next evolution will not be through wars to conquer other nations or people, but rather a dramatic shift in the way humanity thinks.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You dared to love him. You saw the red flags. You felt the sting of his words and saw the anger flash in his eyes. You honestly thought things would be better once you were married. Turns out, you were wrong. That Prince Charming who swept you off your feet is now not so charming. As a matter of fact, you wonder if you made the right decision . . . but you love him. This is the way every marriage is, right? Your relationship is normal, right? For more than 1 million women in the United States, abuse—whether emotional or physical—is a way of life. Every day these women put on invisible chains. Breaking Invisible Chains, written specifically for women by women, is an honest, personal, and encouraging message of hope and illumination. Written by three survivors, the personal stories these women share will help you realize if you are in an abusive relationship or one that is just normal. A professional therapist includes insight into specific abuse situations, while each chapter contains a strong scriptural emphasis. The authors stress the role of forgiveness throughout the book, and they include realistic advice on how to handle the ongoing dynamics after the relationship ends if it turns out your relationship is not normal.

Download or read book Invisible Chains written by Benjamin Perrin and published by Penguin Canada. This book was released on 2010-10-05 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just outside Toronto, a 14-year-old Canadian girl was auctioned on the internet for men to purchase by the hour. A young woman was taken by slave traders from an African war zone to Edmonton to earn greater profits by exploiting her in prostitution. A gang called Wolfpack recruited teenagers in Quebec and sold them for sex to high-profile men in the community. The global problem of human trafficking is only beginning to be recognized in Canada, even though it has been hidden in plain sight. In Invisible Chains, Benjamin Perrin, an award-winning law professor and policy expert, exposes cases of human trafficking, recording in-depth interviews with people on the front lines—police officers, social workers, and the victims themselves—and bringing to light government records released under access-to-information laws.
