Imaginary Linesby Douglas Grant

Kyle Conway is about to make a breakthrough for Conway Brothers Construction Co.–a long sought after opportunity for a major real estate score. His wife and two boys will prosper, his brother-partner will do the same. And the Conways are delighted that friend and business colleague, Mauricio Solares, will have the chance to rise higher in society than other Mexican immigrants trying to realize the American Dream.

Yes, Kyle, a bit rough around the edges but a good guy at heart, is happy for Mauricio; but his proclivity for careless, insensitive remarks about or in front of his Mexican friend, causes Cynthia Conway to chastise him repeatedly, a fact that leads to frequent verbal clashes between them. He bristles at suggestions of mistreatment. She wants to enlighten her husband and to preserve the warm friendship that the Conways have enjoyed with the Solares family.

Is there a legitimate cause–perhaps beneath the surface–for tension, or is it a result of imaginations being overwrought? That question becomes critical when a vacation visit to Mexico intended to offer the Conways an opportunity for celebration and a strengthening of their marriage turns into a horror show, one that compounds suspicions and…

Customer Reviews:

- This one really is a thriller. Refreshingly different.

- I enjoyed this book from start to finish. Yes it’s gory and shocking but definitely a “Couldn’t put it down” for me.

Deadlineby Craig McLay

When a body is found in front of the campus arts building, college newspaper editor Colin Mitchell immediately suspects there is more to the case than meets the eye.

His first clue is the severed hand that shows up in his inbox – a hand that belonged to a girl whose story Colin tried to write and both the college and the police did their best to ignore. His second is the strange symbol found at the scene of the crime, one that may have a connection to a murderous cult whose origins go back almost a thousand years to a highly secretive military religious order founded during the Crusades.

As he digs deeper into the mystery, Colin begins to uncover a trail of murder and corruption that extends beyond his wildest dreams. He’s going to need every last bit of his innate investigative talent and insider knowledge of how the school operates to get to the bottom of it all because the police are starting to zero in on him as their prime suspect…and the real killer is closer than he thinks.

A New Kind of Zealby Michelle Warren

On a hot, humid day, Tristan Blake is sweating it out trying to hitch a ride past Kerikeri, up north. It is summer in New Zealand, 2030: the temperature is rising, and Tristan is looking to get away from it all, after retiring from Peace-making army duty in the Middle East.

An old red Holden Ute pulls up on the side of the road, with fishing lines strapped in the back. Tristan goes to the driver’s window, and a Maori priest, Rau Petera, invites him on a ride to Ninety Mile Beach.

Keen to fish, Tristan agrees: but there on the expansive sand, trying to escape the rising tide, Rau and Tristan stumble across Joshua Davidson from Kaitaia. Rau follows Joshua back into the rising sea, and Joshua catches him a record snapper, with no bait.

Now Rau and Tristan find themselves driving Joshua on a once-in-a-lifetime road-trip down the centre of the North Island, toward the Beehive in Wellington. Joshua is reminding Rau of someone: he is finding a new kind of faith. But Tristan is being thrown into increasing confusion and dismay, when he finally realizes what he must do to end the growing threat…

Confessions of a Hollywood Nobodyby Dan Bronson

Everyone has read biographies and memoirs of Hollywood celebrities–the lucky ones who have actually made it to the top. Dan Bronson’s book is different. It tells the story of all the others–the ninety-eight percent who’ve worked hard and well but below the radar, the “nobodies” without whom movies and television would cease to exist.

Dan’s fun, funny account of his wild ride on the rollercoaster of Hollywood is littered with stars, both behind the camera and in front of it–actors like Natalie Wood, Bruce Willis, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jason Bateman and, yes, Tori Spelling; directors like George Seaton, Alfred Hitchcock, George Cukor, Gil Cates, Francis Ford Coppola and John McTiernan; executives like Dawn Steele, Jeffrey Katzenberg, Michael Eisner and Ned Tanen. And along the way, Dan provides behind-the-scenes glimpses of the making of films both big and small–everything from Galaxy of Terror to Godfather III and Die Hard: With a Vengeance .

But his real story is how the dream factory works and what it takes to avoid being crushed in its gears. A survivor’s guide to Hollywood, it is a must-read for anyone interested in film.

Lydia Kalila, the Princess Royal of Mishnah, is forced into marriage with the son of her country’s mortal enemy for the sole purpose of producing an heir. Duty comes before personal choice for a princess, especially when her country has been at war for more than a thousand years.

Breath: The inner essence of meditation and prayerby Jonas Yunus Atlas

This little gem beautifully elucidates the flow of our mind, heart and soul during meditation and prayer. It explains how we can guide our inner being to moments of spiritual contemplation.

In a concise and poetic language, Jonas Yunus Atlas clarifies the core aspects of meditation and prayer. He does not discuss their outer forms or technical sides, but reveals their mental forms and deeper spirit. And, while doing so, also rephrases our relationship with the divine.

Many meditation books focus on bodily exercises and physical postures that are needed to open distinct energy channels. The verses in this book, however, describe the different ‘spiritual postures’ that open the ‘channels of the soul’ between ourselves and God.

Editorial Reviews

“I will read it before I start my day, and when I end my day. I trust it will prepare me for the day, and soothe me after a long day. Jonas and I share our love for meditation and prayer.” - Imam Abdul Feisal Rauf, founder and Chairman of The Cordoba Initiative.

“Original, delighting, deep, a book to own. (…) Jonas Y. Atlas writes beautiful things. That he does this in religious-spiritual…

HUMANITY EMERGENCY: POETRY OF A MEDICAL STUDENTby SARAH FRASER MD

Medical school is like a combination of a hug, a slap in the face, going to church and trying to survive. I graduated medical school earlier this year, but wrote these poems throughout the course of my training. With the busy life of being a health care professional, it can be easy to lose compassion in medicine. Studies show that empathy decreases during the process of becoming a doctor. However, it’s an emergency to have more humanity in medicine and in the world more generally. This journey begins with recognizing what is human in ourselves. These poems and stories have helped me to hold on to my own humanity in a seemingly chaotic world.

The time is now. The person is you. Situation – emergency.

Go.

Living with Your Past Selves (Spell Weaver Book 1)by Bill Hiatt

He’s haunted by the past, but he has an enemy very much in the present.

Danger lurks around every corner for the seemingly ordinary teen who is anything but.
Many teenagers struggle to find their identity, but for Taliesin Weaver, that struggle has become life or death–and not just for him. Tal, as he prefers to be called, believes in reincarnation, and with good reason. When he turned 12, his mind was nearly shattered by a flood of memories, memories of his past lives, hundreds of them. Somehow, Tal managed to pull himself together and even to make good use of the lessons learned and skills developed in those previous lives. He even had the ability to work magic–literally–and there was no denying that was cool. No, his life wasn’t perfect, but he was managing.

Now, four years later, his best friend, Stan, has begun to suspect his secret, and Stan isn’t the only one. Suddenly, Tal is under attack from a mysterious enemy and under the protection of an equally mysterious friend whose agenda Tal can’t quite figure out. An apparition predicts his death. A shape shifter disguised as Stan attacks him. An old adversary starts acting like a friend. He and some other students get hurled into Annwn (the Otherworld), face Morgan Le Fay, and only just barely get back alive–and that’s just during the first month of school!

By now Tal knows he is not the only one who can work magic and certainly not the only one who can remember the past. He realizes there is something that he is not remembering, something that could save his life or end it, some reason for the attacks on him that, as they escalate, threaten not only him but everyone he loves as well. In an effort to save them, he will have to risk not only his life, but even his soul.

Lydia Kalila, the Princess Royal of Mishnah, is forced into marriage with the son of her country’s mortal enemy for the sole purpose of producing an heir. Duty comes before personal choice for a princess, especially when her country has been at war for more than a thousand years. Lydia’s pregnancy removes her brother and new husband from their respective lines of succession, placing her yet unborn infant at the head of both queues. No one is happy about this, especially Lydia who dies during childbirth from wounds caused by the talon-like toenails of her very strange newborn son.

Grief stricken at the loss of his daughter, the Mishnese King hastily sends Senya, his infant grandson off to a decrepit inner city orphanage with the intent to retrieve him much later when things got sorted out. At the orphanage, Senya is protected by the invalid Sister Meri who instantly falls in love with the little fellow.

Breath: The inner essence of meditation and prayerby Jonas Yunus Atlas

This little gem beautifully elucidates the flow of our mind, heart and soul during meditation and prayer. It explains how we can guide our inner being to moments of spiritual contemplation.

In a concise and poetic language, Jonas Yunus Atlas clarifies the core aspects of meditation and prayer. He does not discuss their outer forms or technical sides, but reveals their mental forms and deeper spirit. And, while doing so, also rephrases our relationship with the divine.

Many meditation books focus on bodily exercises and physical postures that are needed to open distinct energy channels. The verses in this book, however, describe the different ‘spiritual postures’ that open the ‘channels of the soul’ between ourselves and God.

Editorial Reviews

“I will read it before I start my day, and when I end my day. I trust it will prepare me for the day, and soothe me after a long day. Jonas and I share our love for meditation and prayer.” - Imam Abdul Feisal Rauf, founder and Chairman of The Cordoba Initiative.

“Original, delighting, deep, a book to own. (…) Jonas Y. Atlas writes beautiful things. That he does this in religious-spiritual…

Citadels of Fire (Kremlins)by L. K. Hill

In a world where danger hides in plain sight and no one aspires to more than what they were born to, Inga must find the courage to break the oppressive chains she’s been bound with since birth.

As a maid in the infamous Kremlin, life in 16th-century Russia is bleak and treacherous. That is, until Taras arrives. Convinced that his mother’s death when he was a boy was no mere accident, he returned from England to discover what really happened.
