Beyond Tuesday Morning
$17.99Three years have passed since the terrorist attacks on New York City. FDNY widow Jamie Bryan has found meaning in her season of loss by volunteering at St. Paul’s, the memorial chapel across the street from where the Twin Towers once stood. Here she meets a daily stream of people touched by the tragedy of that awful day, including two men with whom she connects. One is a firefighter also changed by the attacks, the other a police officer from Los Angeles.
As Jamie gets to know the police officer she is stunned to find out that his brother is Eric Michaels-the man with the uncanny resemblance to Jamie’s husband, the man who lived with her for three months after September 11. A man she vowed to never see again. Certain she could not share even a friendship with someone who might bring her face to face with Eric, Jamie shuts out the police officer and delves deeper into her work at St. Paul’s.
Now it will take the persistence of a tenacious man, the questions from her curious young daughter, and the words from her dead husband’s journal to move Jamie Bryan beyond one Tuesday morning.

List : A Novel
$18.99There is a power in the list. . .
Fresh out of law school and full of hope for the future, Renny Jacobson is stunned by his father’s sudden death-and then by the terms of the will: the elder Jacobson has left the bulk of his considerable estate to charity. For his only son, he has left nothing more than the contents of a safe deposit box and interest in a company no one has ever heard of-the Covenant List of South Carolina, Ltd.
When Renny, in rapid succession, encounters lovely Jo Johnston, meets the members of “The List,” and discovers the staggering value of his father’s mysterious bequest, his hope is resurrected. But why is Jo, to whom he is deeply attracted, so reluctant for him to claim his rightful share in the windfall?
Against Jo’s advice, Renny accepts his inheritance and discovers there is more to the Covenant List than meets the eye. “There is a power in the List,” Renny’s new business partners advise him. “let us show you how to use it for your good.”
Renny fells the power of the 140-year-old covenant-feels it and wants it for himself. But when his life and Jo’s begin to unravel, he is forced to face the truth: the power residing in the List is not a force for good, but for unimaginable evil. . .
And nothing short of a miracle will save them from its grasp.

Stain Of Guilt
$17.99For the highly successful TV show American Fugitive, forensic artist Annie Kingston agrees to draw the updated face of Bill Bland, a cunning fugitive wanted for a double murder committed twenty years ago. In studying the man and his crime, Annie knows she must descend into the mind of a killer a mind of greed, darkness . . . and death. To render Bland as he would look today, Annie must intimately learn about his traits, his health, and his personality. Just one habitual expression could alter the way his face has aged. But as she is pulled further into his world, someone wants to stop her at any cost. To protect herself and her children, Annie must complete the drawing and pray it leads to the elusive Bland’s arrest before he can get to her . . . The house felt eerie in its silence. My own breathing, the swish of my sleeve as I drew, the rasp of pencils all seemed amplified. Yet I noticed this intermittently, as if my mind surfaced from the depths to breathe, then sank once more. Down in the murky waters of concentration, I focused on Bill Bland until I could almost touch him, feel him, smell him. The longer I worked, the more close the air in the office felt, as if a woolen blanket of oppression descended from the ceiling. A strange sense stole over me, as though I and Bland were two actors on stage, our movements spotlighted, black emptiness between us. But that darkness grew smaller and smaller as the space between us shrank. I did not know if this sense was due to my emersion in Bland’s face and mind and world, or to my fear of his threatening presence. Or both. The nerves between my shoulder blades began to tingle. Help me, God. Please.
