Former Broadway dancer and current agoraphobic Billy Shine has not set foot outside his apartment in almost a decade. He has glimpsed his neighbors—beautiful manicurist Rayleen, lonely old Ms. Hinman, bigoted and angry Mr. Lafferty, kind-hearted Felipe, and 9-year-old Grace and her former addict mother Eileen.
But most of them have never seen Billy. Not until Grace begins to sit outside on the building’s front stoop for hours every day, inches from Billy’s patio. Troubled by this change in the natural order, Billy makes it far enough out onto his porch to ask Grace why she doesn’t sit inside where it’s safe. Her answer: “If I sit inside, then nobody will know I’m in trouble. And then nobody will help me.”
Her answer changes everything.

In 1837, Lisbeth Wainwright is born to the white mistress of a sprawling Virginia plantation. Seconds later, she is delivered into the arms of her black wet nurse, Mattie. For a field hand like Mattie, her transfer to the big house is supposed to be considered an honor—except that the move tears Mattie away from her beloved grandfather and her infant son, Samuel. But Mattie is a slave, with no say in the matter, and so she devotes herself to her master’s daughter, though she longs to be raising her own child. Growing up under Mattie’s tender care, little Lisbeth adopts the woman’s deep-seated faith in God, her love of music and black-eyed peas, and the tradition of hunting for yellow crocuses in the early days of spring.

When EDGE operative Dillon Caldwell was given a mission to infiltrate the Sanchez Drug Cartel and bring down its head, Rafael Sanchez, Dillon figured it would be a long, grueling year that he might not survive. He had no idea it would be three horrific, gut-churning years, or that the price paid for his efforts would be a nightmare worse than abject failure.
Then, after his cover was blown, he watched in horror as his wife was slain in front of him. His parents were next. And his sister, who died, broken and burning, in his arms.
Dillon, wracked by loss and guilt, is nearly rabid in his hunt for Sanchez, intent on ending his reign of terror. What he finds along the way, though, will change everything Dillon thought he knew to be true. Washed up on a nearby beach, badly beaten and suffering from exposure, is the woman he thought dead for the past twelve months. His wife Sara is alive.

First Chosen
By M. Todd Gallowglas / Genre: Fantasy, Horror / Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars
On her twenty-first birthday, Julianna frees an ancient god of vengeance, from his thousand-year prison. In his “gratitude,” the god names her his high priest and commands her to lead his people to greatness once again. However, it is now a capital crime for any of Julianna’s people to worship one of the five ancient gods – the punishment is the destruction of the offender’s soul.
And so begins TEARS OF RAGE, a dark, epic fantasy saga about the power of faith and belief, where even though the gods can inspire these qualities in mortals, it is those same mortals that truly control the religions that form from any god’s divine inspiration. It is also a swashbuckling tale of political intrigue where men scheme against each other and the gods, and how friendship, loyalty, and faith can help people persevere through the darkest times.

UFOs Exopolitics and the New World Disorder
By Ed Komarek / Genre: Occult, Science / Rating: 4.0 out of 5 stars
The thesis, of this book, is that if our leaders had not failed us in the 1940s and 1950s, the positive vision of Star Trek could now have become our present day reality. The author shows through case after case of credible whistleblower and extraterrestrial contact testimony, that had our leaders embarked on a policy of openness and transparency, rather than secrecy and cover-up, human evolution, would have moved forward instead of backward and the earth’s environment protected.
The author shows that about the time the Bilderberg group was founded in 1954, the European and American oligarchy chose to play to humanity’s dark side, deciding to selfishly and savagely protect its established interests and institutions, and its covert control over the masses, when confronted with alien contact. The oligarchy chose to subvert democratic principles and the rule of law, in order to secretly monopolize extraterrestrial technologies, for immense profit, making this along with fiat money, a foundation stone of its covert global power. Under the guise of National Security, leaders and ordinary citizens that opposed the UFO/ET cover-up were discredited, harassed and in some cases murdered, under a covert policy of denial and ridicule.
Fantastic and shocking as it would seem to some, rather than lead mankind to an enlightened future offered to us by ethical extraterrestrial races and civilizations, our autocratic leaders agreed to secret Faustian treaties and technological transfer agreements with less ethical extraterrestrial races, thereby creating the greatest national security threat of all time. We can only imagine our future, if overt space travel had become commonplace, with ethical ET cultural and technological exchanges bringing in a new age of enlightment, along with exotic cheap non-polluting energy and transportation, from reverse engineered alien technologies.
