Book Description
When Efraim and Shifra Baumen decide to move from the United States to a new life in Israel, it is with the dream of raising their children with a vibrant set of Jewish values. Aside from Efraim's day job as an architect and Shifra's devotion to their children, the young couple also helps the less fortunate in society. Each and every Shabbat sees their house filled to overflowing with the less fortunate or with those searching for meaning in their lives. But things begin to change and Efraim loses his job. He becomes increasingly secretive, stays out late at night, and spends much less time with his family. He often takes one or more of his children on his furtive escapades but warns them to never tell Ima where he takes them or what he is doing, conditioning them to habitually lie to their mother. Eventually, the shocking truth unravels. When the full extent of Efraim's disloyalty and depravity becomes known, it almost shatters Shifra. Can she retain her sanity and keep her children emotionally stable despite the awareness of their father's immoral conduct? Will she find the inner strength to convey why they should not imitate their father's treacherous character? And will she get the divorce she desperately seeks from the man she once wholeheartedly trusted? This novel is based on a true story. Details have been changed.

Book Description
Stay up all night with this modern day Rebecca! Perfect for fans of Truly Devious--a haunting story about a new girl in an old town filled with dark secrets . . . that might just kill her. People say the house is cursed. It preys on the weakest, and young women are its favorite victims. In Louth, they're called the Dead Girls. All Bram wanted was to disappear--from her old life, her family's past, and from the scandal that continues to haunt her. The only place left to go is Louth, the tiny town on the Hudson River where her uncle, James, has been renovating an old mansion. But James is haunted by his own ghosts. Months earlier, his beloved wife died in a fire that people say was set by her daughter. The tragedy left James a shell of the man Bram knew--and destroyed half the house he'd so lovingly restored. The manor is creepy, and so are the locals. The people of Louth don't want outsiders like Bram in their town, and with each passing day she's discovering that the rumors they spread are just as disturbing as the secrets they hide. Most frightening of all are the legends they tell about the Dead Girls. Girls whose lives were cut short in the very house Bram now calls home. The terrifying reality is that the Dead Girls may have never left the manor. And if Bram looks too hard into the town's haunted past, she might not either.

Book Description
This completely revised and updated edition of Don't Tell Me What To Do, Just Send Money prepares parents for the issues that they will encounter during their children's college years. Since our original publication over ten years ago, there has been a dramatic increase in the use of cell phone and internet technology. The birth of the term ‘helicopter parent' is, in part, due to the instant and frequent connectivity that parents have with their children today. Parents are struggling with the appropriate use of communicative technology and aren't aware of its impact on their child's development, both personally and academically. With straightforward practicality and using humorous and helpful case examples and dialogues, Don't Tell Me What To Do, Just Send Money helps parents lay the groundwork for a new kind of relationship so that they can help their child more effectively handle everything they'll encounter during their college years.

"Growing up had stolen the truth of us." A life worth living is a life worth sharing. Growing up in a small town in Montana not worth a name, that kind of life is not one Nick can manage, let alone comprehend. When fate gives him an existence he can barely recognize, he searches for meaning in future he wishes existed, and attempts to escape a past that cannot be told, save for in the pages of a faded memory. Melissa Thayer's lyrical and poignant debut novel, part confession and part wistful longing, is an incisive look at love and loss, and what remains of a soul that is dashed against the rocky shorelines of hope.

He didn't, but even if the police eventually clear his name, he'll never get over this terrible tragedy. On New Year's Eve, his two best friends and business partners finally convince him to go out for the first time since Maggie's death, and at their neighborhood pub just a few minutes before midnight, things in Tim Wallace's life go from bad to worse. "Can you keep a secret? A really big one?" a drunken stranger asks him. Before Tim can say anything or turn away, the man confesses to a months-old murder, even offering as proof the location of the woman's body. "Now it's your problem," he says and walks away. When the man turns out to have been telling the truth, Tim's life and work are put under the microscope again by the cops, and this time they're not giving up.
