Milly, Aubrey, and Jonah Story are cousins, but they barely know each another, and they've never even met their grandmother. Rich and reclusive, she disinherited their parents before they were born. So when they each receive a letter inviting them to work at her island resort for the summer, they're surprised . . . and curious. Their parents are all clear on one point--not going is not an option. This could be the opportunity to get back into Grandmother's good graces. But when the cousins arrive on the island, it's immediately clear that she has different plans for them. And the longer they stay, the more they realize how mysterious--and dark--their family's past is. The entire Story family has secrets. Whatever pulled them apart years ago isn't over--and this summer, the cousins will learn everything. Fans of the hit thriller that started it all can watch the secrets of the Bayview Four be revealed in the One of Us is Lying TV series now streaming on NBC's Peacock!

Book Description
What a way to end the summer! Is it possible for the Double Cousins to squeeze a new adventure in before school starts? The excitement all begins with an e-mail from Slim who has found a clue in an old clock and needs their help to solve this intriguing mystery. Before they know it the Double Cousins are on the road in search of answers. It's great fun for Max, Carly, their siblings, and Cousin Brandon to travel through Colorado in the camper with Grandma and Grandpa Johnson. Even better is spending time with their recently discovered cousin Slim. It's not all fun and games--or camping, hiking, and roasting marshmallows--however. There's a real mystery to solve, complete with hundred-year-old clues, family stories handed down, and a few tense and dangerous moments. Will they succeed in putting together all the pieces? Are they real detectives, like Max's hero, Encyclopedia Brown? Will the pesky thief scare them away? Or worse yet, will he beat them to the treasure? Come along and find out in The Double Cousins and the Mystery of the Torn Map. As the cousins pursue their clues, they find that they each have particular strengths and can achieve more together than separately, and they learn valuable lessons in cooperation, contentment, and confidence.

Book Description
Cousins and best friends Aaron and Joel Haskins share the same birthday and interests as they grow up on neighboring farms near Sharpsburg, Maryland. But in April of 1861, as Virginia leaves the Union and Civil War conflicts brew, twenty-year-old Aaron and Joel hear the call for volunteers. Now they both must decide whether the impending threat is worth the risk of losing everything they have ever known. Aaron, who fears Lincoln will take away his right to own slaves, is determined to join the Rebel army and defend his way of life. Joel, who has been married only a few weeks, is less than enthusiastic to leave his new bride and join the fight. After Joel chooses not to go to war, he sees his cousin off with a dose of naïve optimism-even as he is taunted for his lack of courage. As Aaron performs his duties among the atrocities of war, he has no idea the battle has reached his home-leading Joel to join the Union army and become his enemy. In this compelling historical tale, two cousins battling on opposite sides of a brutal war must decide whether love or hatred will prevail in an uncertain world.

Book Description
An Epistolary Autobiography is a day-to-day writing about events in a person’s life—my observations of America during a twenty-five thousand-mile trip around the country. My trip started in Indio, California, took along the South to the Southeast, then to the Northeast, then back along a Northern route to the Midwest, the Northwest, and then full circle back home. The trip was intended to do three things: allow me to check off some of my bucket list items, meet with my first cousins to present information about the origin of our grandparents, and explore those places I always wanted to see as a teacher of American Literature and history. While traveling through the country, I made some observations about America that may differ from other points of view, but these observations are what I saw on my trip. I share those with the reader as part of the interest of the book. I also wanted to share my perceptions of the great writers of American Literature and what they stood for. I was also checking off my bucket list and sharing my experiences doing those things, like visiting the boyhood home of Mark Twain, one of my favorite writers. I taught these writers for thirty-seven years and wanted to see the ground they walked on. Literature was an important part of my life; seeing the hallowed grounds where some of our literary giants stood was also a goal for this adventure. I wanted to see Old Faithful go off, drive in Yellowstone National Park, see Mount Rushmore, and play golf at some exclusive golf courses here in America.
