Book Description
I'm not afraid of the shadow. He's the only thing keeping me alive. "Intense. Delightful. Unrelenting. A no-nonsense heroine, a sword of questionable origin, and a plot that sinks its claws in and does not let go. Grab a reading buddy and buckle in. This is one hell of a ride." - Melissa Wright, Bestselling YA Fantasy Author I'm hiding in my father's closet, desperately picking the lock on a box containing an ancient evil when he emerges. He doesn't seem all that evil. But neither did my friends before they turned into monsters. I'd like to think that I don't need him. But I love books and he loves battles. I'm used to drinking tea and he's used to drinking the blood of his enemies. Or whatever his kind drink. In a world stricken by plague, all my friends have become terrifying monsters, and I have no other option but to trust him to keep me safe. He'll teach me to hunt those monsters and I'll try not to fall hopelessly in love with him.

Shadows on My Heart
Author: Lucy Rebecca Buck
Publisher: University of Georgia Press
ISBN: 0820340901
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 396
Book Description
When the Civil War began in 1861, Lucy Rebecca Buck was the eighteen-year-old daughter of a prosperous planter living on her family's plantation in Virginia's Shenandoah Valley. On Christmas Day of that year Buck began the diary that she would keep for the duration of the war, during which time troops were quartered in her home and battles were literally waged in her front yard. The extraordinary chronicle mirrors the experience of many women torn between loyalty to the Confederate cause and dissatisfaction with the unrealistic ideology of white southern womanhood. In the environment of war, these women could not feign weakness, could not shrink from public gaze, and could not assume the presence of protection that was supposedly their right. This radical disjuncture, coming as it did during a period of extreme deprivation and loss, caused Buck and other so-called southern belles to question the very ideology with which they had been raised, often between the pages of private diaries. In powerful, unsentimental language, Buck's diary reveals her anger and ambivalence about the challenges thrust upon her after upheaval of her self, her family, and the world as she knew it. This document provides an extraordinary glimpse into the "shadows on the heart" of both Lucy Buck and the American South.

Non-Christian Whitney Paige travels cross-country to rescue her sister, Morgan, from her dangerous religious fanaticism. On her arrival, she is rescued from a sand gully by good-looking, but despicable, Travis McLaughlin, who quotes Bible rhetoric, just like Morgan, and mistakes Whitney for a prostitute. When Whitney finally finds Morgan’s house, Morgan has disappeared! Whitney is saddled with the Bible-thumping Grace as a roommate. And she finds herself caretaker for a neglected young girl when the child’s mother is hit by a car—the same car that had tried to run Whitney down! Everyone in town loves Morgan—so what could have happened to her? As Whitney meets the people of Battle Lake, it becomes obvious that the sleepy town hides deep secrets. As Whitney searches for Morgan, danger closes in all around her. She has to deal with her increasing attraction to Travis. And what does it mean when Whitney is told that she has a “green” heart shadow, while Morgan’s heart shadow is gold? As Whitney nears the end of her dangerous search for Morgan, she finds a strength in God she didn’t believe existed; a strength that helps her overcome her perilous situation.

Book Description
"This is absorbing, headlong reading, a play on classic horror with an inventiveness of its own... As with all the best illusions, you are left feeling not tricked, but full of wonder." – The New York Times The haunting new thriller from Alex North, author of the New York Times bestseller The Whisper Man You knew a teenager like Charlie Crabtree. A dark imagination, a sinister smile--always on the outside of the group. Some part of you suspected he might be capable of doing something awful. Twenty-five years ago, Crabtree did just that, committing a murder so shocking that it’s attracted that strange kind of infamy that only exists on the darkest corners of the internet--and inspired more than one copycat. Paul Adams remembers the case all too well: Crabtree--and his victim--were Paul’s friends. Paul has slowly put his life back together. But now his mother, old and suffering from dementia, has taken a turn for the worse. Though every inch of him resists, it is time to come home. It's not long before things start to go wrong. Paul learns that Detective Amanda Beck is investigating another copycat that has struck in the nearby town of Featherbank. His mother is distressed, insistent that there's something in the house. And someone is following him. Which reminds him of the most unsettling thing about that awful day twenty-five years ago. It wasn't just the murder. It was the fact that afterward, Charlie Crabtree was never seen again...
