Kirby was raised in a God fearing home but never really knew God. Throughout his life and military career, Kirby experienced many difficult obstacles and trials. For nearly 30 years, Kirby believed himself to be both extremely lucky and extremely unlucky, without giving much thought to God. This story is about Kirby's life and details some of the uphill struggles he faced throughout childhood and adulthood. In a post 9/11 America, in an attempt to change the path he was on, Kirby joined the United States Army to serve his country and to fight terrorism. Upon completion of his last contract, Kirby left active duty Army after serving for 10 years. Shortly after leaving the service, Kirby experienced something that would change the course of his future and would make him question everything he thought he knew. One life-altering night prompted Kirby to search for God, while struggling to understand where God had been throughout his life when he was walking through every low point that he experienced. Jesus helped Kirby to look back on his life with a new set of eyes. This book may tell of Kirby's story but it isn't about him. This book highlights the consistent thread of God's work in Kirby's life.

Internal jealousy, obstinacy, and treachery threaten the royal house of a great queen and the future of her matriarchal land in the concluding volume of the acclaimed Great Alta high fantasy series Decades have passed since White Jenna fulfilled the ancient prophecy, becoming queen of the Dales after defeating the king of Garun and driving the cruel occupiers back to their homeland. Since then, a fragile peace has been maintained through an exchange of royal hostages. Jenna’s eldest son, Jemson, travels across the ocean to live with the enemy while the queen, in the way of the Dales, prepares her adopted daughter, Scillia, to eventually rule. A frail, one-armed child discovered abandoned on the battlefield, Scillia is thirteen now. She is confused and conflicted, resentful of her mother’s teachings and the pressures of ascendance. But even more troubling is her brother’s resentment. Jemson was corrupted in his thinking by his time among the patriarchal Garunians and is now determined to rule. The dangerous storms brewing in the royal house of Queen Jenna and the dying King Carum could have devastating consequences for all the people of the Dales: A powerful enemy over the waters is watching for any sign of weakness and instability, eager to reignite the terrible fires of the Gender Wars.

In this thrilling second volume of the 'Thresher' trilogy, it is the winter of 1815 and deadly conflicts tighten their grip on the West Dorset community. Two farmworkers, searching for stolen sheep, discover the Reverend William Lessop-Dene’s body in Wychcombe Farm’s swamp. This triggers a riot against the Gomer Family, suspected to have a hand in his death… At Home Farm, the relationship between Hugo Jones and his wife, Katherine, deteriorates following a drunken assault he makes on her. She has no choice but to isolate herself from him in order to protect herself – and the child she is carrying. Hugo launches a murderous hunt for four Irishmen who have stolen a fortune from him – a fortune he sees as rightfully his, but in fact is one he stole from the Gomers. Tragedy strikes Wychcombe as a smallpox epidemic claims the lives of many villagers, including that of the Honourable Susannah Gomer, but her son’s visit to a Dorset dairy farmer prevents the scourge from spreading to other potential victims on Wychcombe Farm. Wychcombe’s misfortune is far from over, however, as the workhouse is burned down – but this is a blessing in disguise for farm labourer Joshua Wicks, on the run for poaching and now an accessory to murder, when he is briefly reunited with his wife and children as a result. Gripping and poignant, Thresher: Winter Grip will appeal to previous fans of Thresher: Autumn Fall, as well as those with an interest in the not-so-peaceful lives of Victorian country-dwellers.

The New York Times bestselling Cork O’Connor Mystery Series returns with this “genuinely thrilling and atmospheric novel” (The New York Times Book Review) as Cork races against time to save his wife, a mysterious stranger, and an Ojibwe healer from bloodthirsty mercenaries. The ancient Ojibwe healer Henry Meloux has had a vision of his death. As he walks the Northwoods in solitude, he tries to prepare himself peacefully for the end of his long life. But peace is destined to elude him as hunters fill the woods seeking a woman named Dolores Morriseau, a stranger who had come to the healer for shelter and the gift of his wisdom. Meloux guides this stranger and his great niece, Cork O’Connor’s wife, to safety deep into the Boundary Waters, his home for more than a century. On the last journey he may ever take into this beloved land, Meloux must do his best to outwit the deadly mercenaries who follow. Meanwhile, in Aurora, Cork works feverishly to identify the hunters and the reason for their relentless pursuit, but he has little to go on. Desperate, Cork begins tracking the killers but his own skills as a hunter are severely tested by nightfall and a late season snowstorm. He knows only too well that with each passing hour time is running out. But his fiercest enemy in this deadly game of cat and mouse may well be his own deep self-doubt about his ability to save those he loves. New and longtime “fans will be enthralled” (Publishers Weekly, starred review) by this gripping and richly told addition to a masterful series.
