“About Wooden Nickels:

It’s 1920’s Baltimore. Prohibition. Those who sell and distribute liquor can become rich — or dead if the mob doesn’t get their cut. The gangsters have taken over, and in organized crime the one weapon valued more than a Tommy gun is a mage. Welcome to the world of White Lightning.

A moonshine runner.
A mage for the mob.
And more misfortune than a blow-down at the speakeasy.

Hattie Malloy has two goals in life—get the hootch from warehouse to seller, and make sure no one finds out she can conjure illusions. But when her shipment of rum is attacked by pirates on the Chesapeake Bay and she needs to call on the mob for help, those two goals collide. Suddenly the safety of her family and friends rests on her helping a group of gangsters that she wants nothing to do with.

The mob is the only family that time pincher Vincent Calendo has ever known. When his boss Vito says he wants to expand his “stable” of mages, Vincent is tasked with finding unaffiliated, or free, pinchers and bringing them into the fold—willingly or not.

Can Hattie keep her talents a secret from Vincent or will she lose the freedom her parents have sacrificed everything to give her?

“About The Girl Next Door:

Am I a killer?

That is the question haunting 25-year-old Jane Jensen.

When she wakes up in the hospital after a devastating auto accident, she finds that her memory since ninth grade of high school has been wiped clean. As she heals, she begins to recover a memory here and there, and piece by piece, she tries to stitch everything together to reclaim her identity.

Jane is aware that she has gone from bullied, overweight schoolgirl to successful corporate wonk in the last several years. But when the wife of her teenage obsession gets killed in a professional hit, Jane makes yet another transition—murder suspect.

It’s a situation that would be unbearable for anyone but it’s infinitely worse for Jane for one major reason: she truly has no idea if she’s innocent or guilty.

The Girl Next Door will keep readers guessing until the last page turn.

About Helping Your Church Live Stream by Paul Richards

This book is free this week only (1/14/2018-1/19/2018)! Inside this book, you will find insights for ministry leaders who are considering the use of live streaming as an outreach tool for their church. This book will help church leaders understand how they can leverage the power of live streaming as a visual bridge connecting your church to the world. After reading this book you should be able to answer foundational questions about why so many churches have adopted live streaming technology.

This book will provide perspective on best practices for live streaming church services and helpful reflections on real-life case studies from churches and pastors who are happily filling their pews with new members each week. Learn how to set up a digital donations strategy and enable your social media accounts to accept donations directly through YouTube and Facebook. This book will include actionable checklists for ministry leaders considering live streaming at their organization. It should become clear to you how your church can use live streaming and social media to reach new members and extend your reach to shut-ins. This book is accompanied by an online training course for technology directors and volunteers alike who may become the next “champions” of your live streaming program. Our online training course also includes a PowerPoint presentation template you can use to present the benefits of live streaming to your church leadership.At the end of this book, you will find a glossary of terms that will help you and your team familiarize yourselves with the type of technological vocabulary frequently used in live streaming. For many pastors, learning this type of information is like learning a new language. If you are interested in learning about church media and live streaming this book will be a walk an in the park.

Feel free to download the audio version of this book and literally take a walk in the park as you listen. Finally, this book was written to inspire readers to use modern tools to tell their organizations unique story about their faith. At the end of the day, live streaming is a storytelling tool helping organizations reach those who may need guidance, education, or simply a nudge in the right direction. Social media has become a medium for empowering individuals to like and share the things they believe in. We live in a world that is more connected than ever before. Understanding that everyone on earth is connected in some way, within six degrees of separation, will be an important stepping stone in our thinking about social media. Your church now has the power to reach people in large connected networks which include groups of family members and friends. These are the people that are most important and most influential in lives of your church’s current members and their extended online network.

One of the main reasons why western religion has succeeded so greatly to this day is because it has always taken advantage of emerging technologies… The medium isn’t the message; it’s the medium that you use to communicate the message. In the 1500s, we saw the printing press emerge, and bibles were being printed for the first time in history. We saw an explosion of what was being made available in written form, with new translations that were suddenly available all over the world… Over the past one hundred years, we have churches moving on to the radio with the early evangelical churches that have now moved into TV and televangelism… and now today we are moving into a new form of communication, where you can distribute your message on digital platforms using social media. The churches that are the most successful and most resonate with people are the ones delivering their message in the places that people are listening. Those who are producing content in a form that is consumable and makes sense in the day and age that we live in, we be to prosper from the fruits of new communication pathways.

“About Rituals of the Dead: An Artifact Mystery:

Stolen artifacts, a missing anthropologist and a tenacious amateur sleuth.

American art history student Zelda Richardson is back and embroiled in another exciting art-related mystery! This time she’s working at an anthropology museum in Amsterdam on an exhibition of artifacts from the Asmat region of Papua – the same area where a famous American anthropologist disappeared in 1961. When the anthropologist’s journal is found inside an artifact’s crate, Zelda is tasked with finding out more about the man’s last days and his connection to these ritual objects.

Trouble is, she soon discovers disturbing links between his vanishing, the Dutch government and the Catholic Church. When her co-worker and housemate are murdered shortly after, Zelda finds herself pulled into a world of shady anthropologists, colonial officials, missionaries and smugglers – where the line between good and evil is blurry at best, and the only certainty is that sins of the past are never fully erased.

Join Zelda on her next quest as she grapples with the anthropologist’s mysterious disappearance fifty years earlier, and a present-day murderer who will do everything to prevent her from uncovering the truth.

“About The Alter:

The life of a CIA agent is secretive by nature. But how deep are these secrets supposed to go? James Hyde discovers an unparalleled conspiracy within the agency while attempting to overcome a rather shocking personal development. Not only does he experience a deep betrayal within an agency sworn to protect the American people, but he also goes through what can only be described as a life-changing transformation.
From cyber security hacker nerd to unstoppable human Hulk, this average guy shows he is anything but ordinary. Hyde’s own skill set (and that of his newly-discovered alter-ego) is the only thing standing between him and total destruction at the hands of the CIA. Battling the inner fragmentation of his psyche and the destructive powers that came takes time and a level of self-control that Hyde never knew he had. For someone who flunked out of active agent training, suddenly developing superhuman speed and strength is a shock — it is both a thrill and nerve-wracking. Can he truly control the being within, his alternative self?

“About The Lion´s Tail:

You’re never too old to become a private detective.

Gunvor Strom may be in her sixties, her hands might be too shaky to perform operations and her body complains every time she works out. But her mind is as sharp as her scalpel.

And she embraces change. After the divorce, she moved from a well-heeled Stockholm satellite to the far-from idyllic, inner suburb of Fruängen. It gets a little lively, but she likes being in the middle of things. She’s smart, experienced and innocent-looking – all qualities appreciated by a detective agency.

As the agency’s rookie, she gets a surveillance job. A straightforward case, they say. Typical domestic. A wife suspects infidelity. Just track the husband.

But when the husband is attacked and viciously beaten, his wife calls off the assignment. Too late. Gunvor is on the trail. The agency aren’t paying her, but her free time is her own business.

After intervening in an incident of bullying, Gunvor finds herself with two unlikely allies. David is a young, jobless waster who hangs about Fruängen tube station. 19-year-old Elin is shy and introverted, after spending too long in her bedroom hiding from her parents’ fights.

Out of curiosity, the pair join forces with Gunvor. Who’s going to notice two young people and an elderly lady slinking around the Stockholm streets?
Only someone who’s watching their every move, biding his time, waiting to pounce. Curiosity can be deadly.

A story of violence, madness, passion and bravery. A cat-and-mouse game of life and death. Never play with the lion’s tail.

Featured Post: Truncate by Michael Toledano

“About Truncate:

A unique Victorian-era suspense story heightened with a touch of mystery and romance. The focus rests on the efforts of the unwitting protagonist to thwart attempts on his life instead of the usual ace detective or the latent genius of an amateur sleuth so typical of the genre. The plot centers on the survival of an unsuspecting member of the rising London commercial gentry toward the end of the nineteenth century. 

Timothy Brompton is the proprietor of a thriving pharmaceutical firm, Thames Pharmaceuticals, in the age of growing brand name companies. He has inherited the firm after his father’s untimely death and has effectively managed it to one of the major players in the lucrative pharmaceutical industry in England. Unknown to him, his company’s success has interfered with the expansion of a sinister underground syndicate which deals exclusively in opium and its derivatives- Opium at the turn of the twentieth century was not restricted by law. This clandestine consortium intends to expand their operations into legitimate apothecaries throughout England. Their intent is to further capitalize on the addictive properties of an often times prescribed drug for treating a variety of maladies from depression to body pains. 

When an agreement between Thames Pharmaceuticals and the influential Tinsworthy Apothecary in Bristol is imminent, this anonymous group decides to take action and destroy Mr. Brompton as they have others who effectively hinder their plans for expansion. 

Timothy Brompton is thrust into one life-threatening predicament after another starting with a mysterious package found by his front door. Little does he suspect that he is being fiendishly toyed with by the opium syndicate’s enforcer who has a penchant for teasing his victims much like a cat with a captured mouse before snuffing it out. 

The Victorian period has always held fascination for Michael Toledano. A computer programmer/analyst by profession, Mr. Toledano’s avid interest in Victorian England was the perfect vehicle to launch his pursuit of being a published writer. After years of research, he has penned a thrilling Victorian suspense novel, Truncate. 

Mike’s aspiration to write began in his college days. Now later in his life, he fulfills this dream by publishing a novel having the suspense, mystery, romance, and betrayal in a genre he loves. An avid fan of the classic novels and films of this time period, Truncate is the culmination of years of gleaning the stirring aspects of the Victorian mystery and creating a unique tale combining these elements. The result is a fast pace Victorian odyssey.
