Book excerpt: Librarian Charlie Harris and his ever-intuitive feline friend Diesel must catch a killer in a deadly game of cat and mouse where no one is who they seem to be... At last, Charlie and Helen Louise’s wedding is only a month away. They’re busy preparing for the big day, and the last thing Charlie needs is a new mystery to solve. Enter Tara Martin, a shy, peculiar woman who has recently started working part-time at Helen Louise’s bistro and helping Charlie in the archive. Tara isn’t exactly friendly and she has an angry outburst at the library that leaves Charlie baffled. And then she abruptly leaves a catered housewarming party Charlie’s son Sean is throwing to celebrate his new home in the middle of her work shift. Before ducking out of the party, Tara looked terrified and Charlie wonders if she’s deliberately trying to escape notice. Is she hiding from someone? When Tara is viciously attacked and lands in the hospital, Charlie knows his instincts were correct: Tara was in trouble and someone was after her. With the help of his much beloved cat, Diesel, Charlie digs deeper, and discovers shocking glimpses into Tara’s past that they could never have predicted. Will they catch the villain before Charlie’s own happily ever after with Helen Louise is ruined?

Book excerpt: Being a Mouse is a fool's job. They run medicine through the slums while being hunted for profit. No one chooses this life -- except for Sasha. She leads the most successful group of Mice to ever run the slums. With only one delivery left until retirement, she vows to escape. But someone won't let her. As her hunters become more violent and her job increasingly rigged against her, it becomes apparent that there is more to this game than she ever imagined. When her search for the truth uncovers a vast conspiracy, she unintentionally antagonizes the most dangerous men in the slums. If she tries to expose them, she and her family will be killed, but if she keeps her mouth shut, no Mouse will ever escape. Watched from a thousand cameras, stalked by a euphoric killer, Sasha must choose between the safety of her family and doing what is right. And even deeper in the shadows lurks someone holding a match to the slums, waiting for a chance to bring the world to its knees.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Over the millennia, the drainageway we now call the Santa Cruz River has seen many ebbs, flows, and floods. Throughout its long history, the river has meandered. It has flowed on the surface. It has carved deep fissures, and it has widened and narrowed.As readers of Requiem for the Santa Cruz learn, these are events that also have taken place in historic times. Authored by an esteemed group of scientists, Requiem for the Santa Cruz thoroughly documents this river, which flows through Tucson, Arizona, as a prime example of arroyo cutting, a process where heavy rains cut down through rock to create deep channeling. Each chapter provides a unique opportunity to chronicle the arroyo legacy, evaluate its causes, and consider its aftermath. Using more than a century of observations and collections, the authors reconstruct the physical, biological, and cultural circumstances of the river's entrenchment, widening, and subsequent partial filling. Today, communities everywhere face this conundrum: do we manageephemeral rivers through urban areas for flood control, or do we attempt to restore them to some previous state of naturalness? Requiem for the Santa Cruz carefully explores the channel-change legacy, the efficacy of attempts to stabilize it, and the nascent attempts at river restoration to give a long-term perspective on management of rivers in arid lands. Tied together by authors who have committed their life's work to the study of arid-land rivers, this book offers a touching and scientifically grounded requiem for the Santa Cruz and every southwestern river"--

This book was released on 2010-08-31 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These two fragments of novels, Ingeborg Bachmann's only untranslated works of fiction, were intended to follow the widely acclaimed Malina in a cycle to be entitled Todesarten, or Ways of Dying. Although Bachmann died before completing them, The Book of Franza and Requiem for Fanny Goldmann stand on their own, continuing Bachmann's tradition of using language to confront the disease plaguing human relationships. Through the tales of two women in postwar Austria, Bachmann explores the ways of dying inflicted upon the living from outside and from within, through history, politics, religion, family, gender relations, and the self.Bachmann's allegiance to the twin muses of memory and history, as well as her perception of fascism as not being limited to the context of the war but also existing within the intimate relations of everyday life between husbands and wives, brothers and sisters, psychiatrists and patients' are supremely evident in The Book of Franza. Here, Bachmann follows a woman who escapes from a sanitorium and, after years of silence, sends her brother a cryptic telegram. Rightly suspecting that she has fled her sadistic husband -- a renowned Austrian psychiatrist whose intimate relations have merged with his studies of concentration camps -- her brother finds her in their childhood home. Together they travel to Egypt, where Franza slowly begins to regain her bearings. But Franza's desire to cleanse herself by journeying into the heart of the desert's void ends in tragedy, as she becomes the victim of a horrible act of violence.Unlike Franza, who attempts to flee her past but fails, the heroine of Requiem for Fanny Goldmann makes no attempt to escape her history. Thisnovel tells of the demise of a Viennese actress who is manipulated by a younger, ambitious playwright to advance his career. Deception follows disloyalty; the final treachery comes when the playwright portrays her in a novel, which secures his fame and, in Fanny's eyes, robs her of her future. Caught in a perpetual stasis, Fanny suffers in total obscurity, as her present is stolen from her as well.Whether analyzing the place where the self begins and the power of history ends or the ways in which women are forced to be complicit in their mistreatment at the hands of men, Bachmann's critical approach to the human psyche is unparalleled. Mesmerizing and profound, The Book of Franza and Requiem for Fanny Goldmann constitute the final evidence that Ingeborg Bachmann is the most important female German-language writer of the postwar period.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A terrible crime occurs in Elect H. Mouse State Judge. Two young girl are abducted and held hostage by a band of religious fanatics. The girls' anxious father, a politician on the eve of an important election, has reasons of his own not to go to the police, so he hires a pair of shady private eyes to investigate. All the elements of a classic noir—except that the kidnapped girls are mice, the abductors are Sunshine Family dolls, and the detectives are Barbie and Ken. Part 1970s childhood dreamscape, part Raymond Chandler, this is a world both familiar and transformed. Sex shops, illicit affairs, spies, political hypocrisy, and dangerous zealots may coexist with Barbie and Ken's acrobatic poolside sex, but the crises of faith that Nelly Reifler's characters face are as real as our own. Elect H. Mouse State Judge is an unusual—and masterful—blend of irony and tenderness, and a moving portrayal of a father trying and failing to do the right thing.

Book excerpt: A lifetime of poems, short stories and contemplations, Sylvia’s The Way Words Live is a collection that reflects her rich personal history, her many joys and sorrows, and her pithy observations of a life well-lived. Born in Calcutta, India in 1930, Sylvia received much of her education at Auckland House - a boarding school in Shimla, several days by train into the hills and what felt like a million miles away from her family. Upon the death of her father, her mother honored a promise and moved Sylvia and her younger sister, June, to England, a country the girls had never before seen. Sylvia was just sixteen. Four years later, the trio immigrated to New Zealand. She met her husband, John, in Auckland and they were married in 1957. Children Robert, Kim, Helyn and Brian quickly followed. It was while keeping a diary of their young lives that Sylvia discovered the satisfaction to be found in writing, and she began to find her voice. Sylvia still lives in Otorohanga, where she has been an integral part of the local community for over sixty years. This collection includes poetry, family stories, reflections on her childhood, the Church, and her local community. Insightful, contemplative, hopeful and funny, full of gratitude and wide-eyed wonderment, The Way Words Live will delight, inspire and entertain its readers – Sylvia’s family, friends and community.

Book excerpt: Librarian Charlie Harris and his cat Diesel must content with some spirited southern ladies when a feud ends in murder in this mystery in the New York Times bestselling series. The Ducote sisters are in a tiff with Vera Cassity over the location of Athena, Mississippi's annual library fundraising gala, and Charlie would rather curl up in a corner than get into the fray. It seems everyone—even his housekeeper Azalea—has it in for Vera. And at the gala, she gives them good reason, with a public display of rancor aimed at anyone who gets in her way. But those bitter words wind up being her last. When Charlie discovers Azalea standing over Vera's dead body, it's up to him—with a little help from Diesel—to clear Azalea's name, and catch a killer before his last chapter is finished.

Book excerpt: Requiem for a Soul is the story of redemption for an artist. Stephen Vale has been highly lauded as the artist of his generation, but he has never felt comfortable being himself. Driving home on his thirty-fifth birthday to discover himself, what he finds are more questions. Written from the perspective of Stephen Vale's fictional biographer and told through the voices of Vale and those who knew him, this is the eternal story of the search for peace in the eye of an internal war. Advance praise for Requiem for a Soul: "I first met Clint while he was a struggling poet, but he has always had the gift of observation. He is the quintessential storyteller. He packs a lot of meaning into each sentence and at times, each word. I'm sure this will become an instant classic. And, I'm not just saying that to get an autographed copy."—Ron Saikowski, Washington Times "Gaige is a humanist, he is extremely powerful in subtlety of observation and depth of meaning. Requiem for a Soul is a search for love, a search for why we are abandoned by those we love, a search for answers to why we abandon those we love, in short, a search for meaning in life."—Sean Meiers, Publisher/Editor Random Reasonings, Literary On-Line "Gaige draws back the veil of an artist's life and gives us a good look at ourselves. The story and his characters have a clear objective; they look us straight in the eyes and realize, that you're looking at yourself!"—Sara Lindley, Editor, Creative Writer's Forum
