Book Description
'Reading it on the train I had to fight not to sob in public . . . Langdale is a wonderful writer' (Daily Mail on Away from You) Perfect for readers of Adele Parks and Maggie O'Farrell. Minnie and her sister Clara, spinsters both, live in a dilapidated country house in the middle of a housing estate, built when their father sold off the family's land. Now in their seventies, their days follow a well-established routine: long gone are the garden parties, the tennis lessons and their suffocatingly strict mother. Gone, too, is any mention of what happened when Minnie was sixteen, and the secret the family buried in the grounds of their estate. Directly opposite them lives Max, an 11-year-old whose life with his mum has changed beyond recognition since her new boyfriend arrived. Cast aside, he takes solace in Minnie's careful routine, observed through his bedroom window. Over the course of the summer, both begin to tell their stories: Max through a Dictaphone, Minnie through a diary. As their tales intertwine, ghosts are put to rest and challenges faced, in a story that is as dark as it is uplifting.

Book Description
The unit has trained for weeks to extricate a group of POWs from their captivity in North Vietnam. Their mission has gone terribly wrong. Now can they survive long enough to return to the lines of friendly forces, and once there, can they rejoin the forces without being shot? These army rangers try new techniques to carry out their mission, but when times get tough, they find that the time-tested values of the soldier are the pillars they must rely on to accomplish the mission. These young men, recruited to be the new face of the American soldier, find that the old skills are still important and that as each wave of new developments come, they must be incorporated into the core values of the fighting man. These time-tested values are the backbone of the force, and as each generation comes along, there is a tendency to leave those values behind. You will enjoy seeing the development of these new fighting men and the growing respect and inclusion of the veteran soldiers assigned to lead them. They draw from the knowledge and skills of each of those assigned to lead them. These men who serve as their leaders are developing their appreciation of the generation to come. This is the tenet of the American fighting man, which must be passed from each generation to the next.

Book Description
This is my Hell and Back story. I was in two wars; one with Korea and one with my wife. My story starts during the Great Depression of the Twentieth Century; on my father’s self-sustaining farm. Before the age of five, my family’s pet sheep, rammed my forehead into the tractor’s steel wheel; leaving a visible “V” scar, on my head for the rest of my life. This “V” was proof; that God would give me victory, over hell throughout my life. Be it near death experiences; on the farm, in war, driving vehicles, building homes, marriage, heart attack, multiple bypasses and the lost of my free movie sweet heart. I learned how to be at peace with myself and God. This peace allowed me to face my hells head on; witness God walking me through them, establish me again and take me through the next season of my life. My Story finishes, with it being a navigational inspiration tool; that guides us and the generations to come, through our hell and backs. Included are my Hell and Back Survival TipsTM that guided me through my two wars. Plus the Law of Unconditional Love, I discovered while in my two wars.

Book Description
Cody and the Lions are playing great soccer, even if their team has only eleven players. But the arrival of an international company to build a factory on a nearby lake splits the team in two: Cody and his teammates who are worried the factory will pollute the lake vs. the players whose families will benefit from the jobs and opportunities the company will bring. Cody and his friends decide to organize a marathon soccer game to bring attention to the environmental impact of the factory in the hopes people will put pressure on the town council to vote against it being built. The marathon soccer game tests Cody to the limits of his strength. But it also tests his friendship, teamwork, courage, and faith that he can deal with the emotional effects as well as the physical effects of surviving cancer. Very much a book that can be read on its own, The Beautiful Game is a sequel to David Skuy's highly successful 2013 novel Striker.
