Book Description
Linwood Barclay meets Michael Farris Smith in this Georgia-set domestic thriller about family, vengeance, and atonement, from critically acclaimed Southern mystery novelist Christopher Swann. The bonds of family never truly let go. In fact, its grip only tightens the further you try to run: crushing and crippling. Ethan Faulkner is a precocious child with a brilliant but troublesome sister, a war vet for a father, and a weary mother trying to manage their family. One night a young woman rings their doorbell, desperate to hide from two men who are pursuing her, when one of the two barges in after her. The struggle leaves both of Ethan’s parents dead. Years later, Ethan has a successful teaching career and a budding relationship with a coworker. But he hasn’t quite followed through on his promise to his dying father—to take care of his sister. Susannah is not an easy person to keep tabs on, is a handful even when the tabs are kept, and quite frankly, Ethan wants her to suffer for preventing him from getting to his dad before he died all those years ago. It was a long time ago and Ethan tries to put all of it behind him. But that’s easier said than done. When news of a brutal murder breaks with evidence pointing to Ethan as the prime suspect, all the painful memories of his past come rushing to meet him. Lyrically conveyed with emotion and nuance, Never Turn Back is a powerful story about family, vengeance, and how some actions echo through the years with irreparable consequences.

Book Description
The Holy Jumpers is an amazing account of the coming of the Church of God to the Bahamas in 1909, the growth and development of the institution throughout the years, and its far-reaching impact on the economic, social, moral, and religious values of the present day. The author, through painstaking research of public and private historical records in the Bahamas, the Caribbean, and the United States, has produced a review that is historically accurate and well-documented. He patiently recorded the events and presents them as a tribute to the men and women who were instruments of God as He carried out His pre-determined plan. Proper emphasis is given to the early years when the "Jumpers" and their ways of worship were not accepted by the mainstream church and political leaders. They were ridiculed and persecuted. The steadfast determination of countless thousands of faithful men and women who persevered in the face of adversity has brought the Church of God of Prophecy to its position as a highly respected institution throughout the Bahamas and beyond its borders. Careful attention is given to the life stories and testimonies of the outstanding leaders as well as the unsung heroes who labored without recognition or reward. The impact of the organization "beyond the isles" is accurately presented with the participation of the Bahamian leaders in the worldwide General Assemblies, including special emphasis on the impact of the Bahamas Brass Band. It is the desire of the author that the reader will develop a greater appreciation for history, a deeper sense of God's love for His creation, and the reality of man's spiritual relationship with his Creator. Michael Stevenson Swann was born January 6, 1959, on the beautiful island of Grand Bahama, Bahamas. He is the fifth of ten children born to Bishop Joseph Swann and his wife, Minister Roselyn Swann. He is the father of a talented daughter, Miquelle Swann-Nairn, and grandfather of a beautiful and adorable granddaughter, Jaliah. He attends the Church of God of Prophecy East Street Tabernacle where he serves in various capacities to support the numerous ministries of the church. Photography is one of many hobbies about which he is passionate. He is well-known and highly respected for his accomplishments in and around Nassau, Bahamas, where he resides. Michael is a Hydrologist and Senior Manager of the Water Quality Laboratory at the Bahamas Water and Sewerage Corporation.

Book Description
A Good Morning America Book Club Pick! • A bighearted novel with technicolor characters, plenty of Texas swagger, and a powder keg of a plot in which marriages struggle, rivalries flare, and secrets explode, all with a clever wink toward classical mythology. For fans of Madeline Miller's Circe: "The Iliad meets Friday Night Lights in this muscular, captivating debut" (Oprah Daily). The Briscoe family is once again the talk of their small town when March returns to East Texas two years after he was caught having an affair with his brother's wife. His mother, June, hardly welcomes him back with open arms. Her husband's own past affairs have made her tired of being the long-suffering spouse. Is it, perhaps, time for a change? Within days of March's arrival, someone is dead, marriages are upended, and even the strongest of alliances are shattered. In the end, the ties that hold them together might be exactly what drag them all down. An expansive tour de force, Olympus, Texas cleverly weaves elements of classical mythology into a thoroughly modern family saga, rich in drama and psychological complexity. After all, at some point, don't we all wonder: What good is this destructive force we call love?

Book Description
In New York Times bestselling author Bryan Reardon's captivating thriller, a dejected filmmaker lets his curiosity get the best of him and plunges into a web of depravity and danger from which there might be no escape. Theo Snyder is at the end of his rope. One minute he was on top of the world, his documentary film The Basement a massive critical and commercial hit, the next crestfallen when his latest film was canceled after an embarrassingly public misstep. As his desperation grows, he makes a bold decision: to pursue the story of the notorious "Halo Killer," Jasper Ross-Johnson. But delving into the life and mind of a serial killer could prove more deadly than Theo ever could have imagined. At first, things are looking up. Jasper is willing to talk, the footage of the jailhouse meetings is spectacular, and famed investigator Zora Neale Monroe joins him on the project. Theo is sure he's getting close to something no one else has discovered: the truth about why Jasper was captured before he could kill his final victim. Someone else was on the beach that day, someone who knows a lot more than they're telling and just might know how it all happened. The truth could lead to more killing--unless Theo can uncover the real ending to the story of the Halo Killer first.
