Book Description
For the Viel and Powers families, revenge served cold is not on the menu. Fuelled by a long-standing feud between the clan patriarchs, nothing less than hot-blooded vengeance will do... When Sean is called to the bedside of his dying father in Atlanta, he never expects what is waiting for him there. In the hospital room he learns Walter, the man who raised him, isn’t his father. Walter tells Sean the story about his true parents and a feud between two families, a feud that goes horribly wrong. Gregory Powers and Skipper Viel hold reign over a network of powerful Toronto business interests. For years the balance of power has remained intact. But when Powers discovers the love affair between his daughter, Jenn, and the young Marshall Viel, son of his enemy, a deadly game tips the balance. In a violent power play, he decides to have her lover killed, sending a clear signal to his nemesis, Skipper Viel. In hot-blooded retaliation, Viel arranges a hit on the Powers’ family, drawing a special target on the head of Gregory Powers’ most prized possession: his daughter. Rocky –trusted bodyguard and driver with a few shady connections of his own – escapes with Jenn to the presumed safety and anonymity of Lockport, New York. But no place on Earth is safe from all-out revenge. As the assassins close in, Rocky narrowly escapes with baby Sean and goes into hiding, creating a new identity. Disappearing into another world, he is able to raise Sean in peace for many years. Faced with this incredible story, Sean decides to go to Canada – out of curiosity about his family roots and a growing need for some act of revenge for the past, to seek atonement for the parents that were lost to him. What he finds when he gets there will force him to make a choice: to succumb to the path set before him by heritage, or to turn away and forego the desire for vengeance pulsing in his veins?

How would you react if the foundations you had built your life upon turned out to not be foundations at all? A moment in time caught between a grandfather and grandson, lost in utter joy at the end of a late summer’s day. Click. Soon, devastation follows; the old man loses his fight to live, but leaves an extraordinary gift for his beloved grandson – a gift that will cause much heartache and cause decisions to be made that will put lives on the line. “Promise me that you will not open it until after I have gone.” Noah Spearing is a young man teaching in St Ives, Cornwall, when his life is changed forever after the death of his beloved grandad. A gift left for him from the man he loved more than anyone else turns out to be a poisoned chalice that he must deal with in the best way that he can. All this comes at a time when the girl he wants is set to marry another man, and Noah must decide not only what to do with the gift from his grandfather, but also his love for Flora Trembath...

Book Description
This is the story of a remarkable life and a journey, from the privileged world of Prussian aristocracy, through the horrors of World War II, to high society in the television age of postwar America. It is also an account of a spiritual voyage, from a conventional Christian upbringing, through marriage to Pastor Martin Niemoeller, to conversion to Judaism. Born during the turbulent days of the Weimar Republic, the author was the goddaughter of Kaiser Wilhelm II (to whom her father was financial advisor). During her teenage years, she witnessed the rise of the Third Reich and her family's resistance to it, culminating in their involvement in "Operation Valkyrie," the ill-fated attempt to assassinate Hitler and form a new government. At war's end, she worked with British Intelligence to uncover Nazis leaders. Keeping a promise to her father, she left Germany for a new life in the United States in the 1950s, working for NBC and raising her son in the exciting world of New York, only to return to Germany as the wife of Martin Niemoeller, the voice of religious resistance during the Third Reich and of German guilt and conscience in the postwar decades. Upon her husband's death in 1984 she returned to America, after having converted to Judaism in London, and turned yet another page by becoming an active public speaker and author. The title reflects a story of three parts: "Crowns," the world of nobility in which the author was raised; "Crosses," her life with Martin Niemoeller and his battles with the Third Reich; and "Stars," the spiritual journey that brought her to Judaism.

Book Description
In the late 1920s, Stalin was determined to turn Russia into a “Soviet Paradise”. For thousands of Russian Mennonites that meant exorbitant taxes, arrest, forced labour, losing their farms and businesses, and even losing their lives. With their faith in God and little else, Nikolai and Kaethe Penner fled for their lives with their toddler Maria, praying to find a way to leave Russia alive. Later joined by Kaethe’s parents and her brother, the two families set off on a journey that ultimately took them half way around the world. Their faith in God and their love for each other sustained them through the difficult years as they built a community, and a life, from nothing. Years later, young Maria falls in love with Jacob, a persistent young Mennonite boy, despite his lack of faith in God. Together they raise their four children before deciding to immigrate to Canada where a whole new life awaits them. Based on true events as told by the author’s grandmother, The Girl from No. 6 shows us the resilience of families that have lost everything and must start over. It also speaks to the support of an unwavering faith that everything happens for a reason, even when it seems the world is crumbling away around you.
