Book Description
Chronicling the life of a broken child, we begin before her birth, looking at the circumstances of her parent's marriage, and an insight into why and how a child could be so horribly abused without intervention from Social Services or the Montreal police - a force that consisted of her family members, one of which became Chief of the Montreal Police Force. Throughout childhood, an endless cycle of sexual abuse from multiple abusers-included her mother, a devout Christian. Using God as a weapon, she would terrify Phyllis, and her siblings into submission. Food and heating were often scarce in the family house, and the children would improvise to survive. Phyllis's mother was diagnosed with severe schizophrenia and was routinely institutionalised, leaving the children to be placed into the foster care system. That did not end the abuse, and often the foster homes were more hellish than their home life. Phyllis recounts her perilous path through life to present day in this gripping true story of her undying courage. From a helpless child to a troubled teen, Phyllis was not given the life skills to make good decisions and ended up seeking love in all the wrong places. But a casual trip and her path to God would change her life - forever.

Book Description
When children lose someone they love, life is never the same. In this sympathetic book, the authors advocate an open, honest approach, suggesting that our instinctive desire to "protect" children from the reality of death may be more harmful than helpful.

Book Description
A man’s death in the Smoky Mountains raises the suspicions of his estranged wife in this suspenseful novel by a New York Times–bestselling author. Vietnam veteran David Hallam is in Tennessee working as an arson investigator for an insurance company when he sends his wife, Karen, an unnerving note: “If anything happens to me down here, don’t let it pass as an accident . . .” Ten days later, he dies in a fire and the only thing Karen can feel is guilt—for all the years she wasted in an unsalvageable marriage and for the relief she feels at finally having the sadistic and abusive man out of her life. But despite all that transpired between them, Karen leaves New York City for Belle Isle, in the heart of the Smoky Mountains, to bury her husband. Once there, Karen can finally put the past to rest—or so she thinks. Instead, she is drawn into a tangled and deadly web of disputed fortune, family jealousy, conspiracy, adultery, and murder. A New York Times–bestselling author and recipient of the Edgar and Agatha Awards, “Phyllis Whitney is, and always will be, the Grand Master of her craft” (Barbara Michaels). This ebook features an illustrated biography of Phyllis A. Whitney including rare images from the author’s estate.

Book Description
Italo Calvino's beloved, intricately crafted novel about an Emperor's travels—a brilliant journey across far-off places and distant memory. “Cities, like dreams, are made of desires and fears, even if the thread of their discourse is secret, their rules are absurd, their perspectives deceitful, and everything conceals something else.” In a garden sit the aged Kublai Khan and the young Marco Polo—Mongol emperor and Venetian traveler. Kublai Khan has sensed the end of his empire coming soon. Marco Polo diverts his host with stories of the cities he has seen in his travels around the empire: cities and memory, cities and desire, cities and designs, cities and the dead, cities and the sky, trading cities, hidden cities. As Marco Polo unspools his tales, the emperor detects these fantastic places are more than they appear.
