The Hallowsby Victor Methos

Winner of the Harper Lee Prize for Legal Fiction.

A ruthless lawyer cross-examines his life after a guilty client walks free in this sharp legal thriller from the bestselling author of The Neon Lawyer.

Ruthless defense attorney Tatum Graham has been living large in Miami, but when his recently acquitted client claims another victim, Tatum has a crisis of conscience. Disillusioned, he heads to his small Utah hometown for a simpler life…but that’s not what he finds.

Soon after he arrives, Tatum’s childhood crush offers him a job at the county attorney’s office and assigns him a murder case. The victim is a teenage girl not unlike the victim in the last case he tried. Now a prosecutor, Tatum sees a chance for redemption, but politics, corruption, and a killer defense threaten to thwart justice.

To complicate matters, Tatum’s estranged father has terminal cancer, and the time to reconcile is running out. Tatum moved to Utah to find clarity, but his thoughts swirl with old feelings and present dangers. As the case heats up, so does the risk, threatening to adjourn Tatum’s new life before it begins.

Conscious Home Design: The Guide to Living Your Best Life by Designing for Happiness Health and Relationship Successby Talor Stewart

There is a paradigm shift happening in home design. Today’s homeowners are more design savvy and demand more than what the old world values represent and deliver. For the Conscious Homeowner, gone are the days when a house is deemed adequate simply because it is built in Z architectural style, has Y number of bedrooms, and X number of square feet.Conscious Homeowners expect more from their homes. They want increased functionality, reduced maintenance, and smaller utility bills. They want a home that maximizes their sense of individual freedom and personal privacy, while at the same time fostering greater family connection. They want highly supportive homes that enhance their lifestyle by removing friction and creating ease and grace.Just as proper diet, exercise and good relationships are essential components of a happy, successful life, so too is proper home design. Conscious Home Design creates momentum in the lives of those who experience it, helping people more readily achieve their noble hopes and dreams, and bright ambitions. When you place the essential parts of life within the context of a consciously designed home, you and your loved ones will be served and supported night and day.

This One’s for You, Dadby Katherine H. Klemp

Everybody knows that kids make the best detectives, because nobody takes kids seriously.

Are they moving into danger? After her father’s death, fifteen-year-old Carly Grant and her three siblings have gone to live with their grandfather in Nebraska. Their mother has accepted a job out of the country. Shortly after Mom leaves, Grandpa starts to get forgetful. Can the kids cover for Gramps and keep his forgetfulness hidden until Mom comes home? It’s no secret the townspeople don’t like having the children around. But why? Carly finds it has something to do with their dad. The Eagle River Detectives are determined to clear their father’s name, but they may have to risk their lives to do it! Follow along as they uncover dangerous secrets that have been deeply buried for years, in this first installment of the Eagle River Detectives adventures.

Author’s note: I wrote this for 10-17- year-olds, but found that my senior friends enjoyed the story as much as the kids, so now I think of it as a Cozy Mystery Lite.

Eat Your Wordsby Isabel Chiara

Giana Giovanni wants you to know you're not alone. If you've ever found your heart racing, fingers fumbling to rip open a bag of something crispy, salty, sticky or sweet; if you've ended one reckless night swearing off a corner store the way some attempt to swear off a bad romance, Giana wants you to know, she's been there, too.

Eat Your Words outlines the history of a first-generation American Italian girl whose early curvaceous entry into womanhood and hearty appetite make for a complex-carb tale about the depth of our relationship with self-nourishment. Often self-derogatory, and certainly comedic, readers can fall in love with Giana as they relate to her often awkward and outlandish process, simply trying to find herself in the land of milk and honey. Nearing her 6th decade, join Giana as she realizes it is never too late to gain a sense of self-compassion and confront issues of body-image, or attempt to modify outworn behaviors.

Particularly relevant for those involved in the healing arts, Giana's story will inform as it entertains, leaving the fortified reader one step closer to herself by its end.

What readers are saying about Eat Your Words…

"Warning: This book will get you to cancel your day's plans and turn your phone off."

A Wound in the Earth: A Novelby Jason Durant

Hubert, Angela, and Ralph Barney are riding horses in the grasslands when they discover an enormous egg. To the palms of their eager hands, the egg communicates a message of life, of a heart ticking. To their rapt ears, pressed against the shell, it speaks of something deep, something primeval. They do a reconnaissance, frightful thoughts chugging through their minds: What kind of monster laid it? What danger does this portend?

The Brit, Malcolm Moreland, totes a large-caliber rifle and all the ammo he can fit on his web belt. The Brit is full of cautionary tales for the Barneys as he and they take cover and wait for the egg to hatch. Before long, eggshell begins to chip away and something frightful pokes its head out. The Barneys leave their idyllic childhoods behind when they and the Brit follow the giant hatchling into another world.

Thirteen-year-old Chad Garrick lives in the shadows of the Barneys, and within his own special kind of darkness. Secretly, he follows the Barneys and the Brit into the land of giant birds, unaware of the peril that awaits them and all of humanity, for the giant birds are a former earth species driven to extinction at the hands of thoughtless humans, and want nothing more than to exterminate the human race.
