Описание: Serrailler must confront his demons as Lafferton experiences a series of shocking crimes in this 10th book in Susan Hill's shattering crime series Susan Hill stuns readers once again in The Benefit of Hindsight, the 10th book in her celebrated mystery series. Now recuperated after the violent incident that cost him his arm--and nearly his life--DCS Serrailler has returned to work, though he prefers to spend his spare time sketching the medieval angels being restored on the cathedral roof. With crime rates down, Lafferton has been quiet, until one night when two men open their front door to a distressing scene. Serrailler makes a serious error of judgment when handling the incident, and the stress of this, combined with the ongoing trauma of losing his arm, takes its toll. In the tradition of the fabulous mysteries of Ruth Rendell and P. D. James, The Benefit of Hindsight is Susan Hill's best work yet--a chilling new addition to a highly acclaimed series.

The silver sword is only a paper knife, but it gives Jan and his friends hope. Hungry, cold, and afraid, the four children try to stay alive among the ruins of bombed cities in war-torn Europe. Soon they will begin the long and dangerous journey south, from Poland to Switzerland, where they hope to find their parents again.
Maury Davis is a colorful character and an accomplished leader. Few people can match the drama of his life's story...from the prison to the pulpit. Throughout his career as pastor of Cornerstone Church in Nashville, Tennessee, he has taken strong stands to expand God's Kingdom. Along the way, he has ruffled more than a few feathers.
In this book, Pastor Maury displays courage in being brutally honest about the mistakes he has made, the people he has hurt, and the shortcuts he shouldn't have taken. Some of his stories will make you laugh, but some will make you cringe. Each chapter includes a first-person narrative of someone who was there-someone who saw the best and the worst in him.
Maury didn't write this purely for entertainment value. Instead, his hope is that God will use this account of his blunders as a warning to others to avoid them like the plague

Описание: In this brilliant crime novel by CWA Gold Dagger winner Peter Dickinson, a writer looks back on his past and discovers the memory of a murder that needs to be solved It's been forty years since Paul Rogers spent a night at St. Aidan's Preparatory School in Sussex and he believes he has forgotten nearly everything that happened there. When a biographer asks the now-middle-aged novelist about his youth, it triggers memories that Rogers thought he had lost forever and prompts him to begin writing about the summer of 1940, when the Nazis took Paris and his entire boarding school were evacuated to a country house in Devon. There the boys discovered a pastoral countryside whose woods held untold mysteries-one of which, Rogers realizes in hindsight, might have been a murder. To write about this long-forgotten crime, Rogers digs deep into his past, uncovering terrifying recollections that may or may not be real. Something gruesome happened that summer, but understanding it will force Rogers to clear the fog of memory and unravel its mysteries once and for all. "A highly intelligent, appealing, and quite beguiling novel." -The Washington Post Book World "Much more than a murder story . . . Hindsight is] an awfully good novel." -Ruth Rendell " Hindsight] flies just about as high as the detective story can go." -H. R. F. Keating "Peter Dickinson is no ordinary writer. . . . Readers of Hindsight will be] dazzled." -Los Angeles Times "A terrific blend of intelligence and suspense." -Publishers Weekly Peter Dickinson was born in Africa but raised and educated in England. From 1952 to 1969 he was on the editorial staff of Punch, and since then has earned his living writing fiction of various kinds for children and adults. His books have been published in several languages throughout the world. The recipient of many awards, Dickinson has been shortlisted nine times for the prestigious Carnegie Medal for children's literature and was the first author to win it twice. The author of twenty-one crime and mystery novels for adults, Dickinson was also the first to win the Gold Dagger of the Crime Writers' Association for two books running: The Glass-Sided Ants' Nest (1968) and The Old English Peepshow (1969). A collection of Dickinson's poetry, The Weir, was published in 2007. His latest book, In the Palace of the Khans, was published in 2012 and was nominated for the Carnegie Medal.

He was made an Officer of the Order of the British Empire in 2009 for services to literature.

Описание: Investigator Kendra Michaels -- whose former blindness has left her with uniquely insightful observational skills -- must put her life on the line to catch a terrifying murderer setting his sights on some of society's most vulnerable in this electrifying new novel from the #1 New York Times and Edgar Award winning writing duo Iris and Roy Johansen. Dr. Kendra Michaels, blind for the first twenty years of her life before gaining her sight via a revolutionary surgical procedure, is a renowned investigator known for her razor-sharp senses--honed during her years in the dark--and keen deductive abilities. Now her skills are needed uncomfortably close to home. Two staff members have been murdered at a school for the blind where Kendra spent her formative years. But the murders are puzzlingly dissimilar: one victim was brutally stabbed, while the other was killed by a bullet to the head. Are the crimes related? Or is Kendra on the hunt for more than one dangerous killer? With the killer (or killers) still on the loose, Kendra must put her life on the line to unravel a terrifying conspiracy. But Kendra soon discovers that she herself may hold the key to the deadliest secret of all.

I have been maintaining a gratitude journal for the past twenty years, which I now refer to as my "gratitude timeline." I never thought to share some of its contents until after my attempt to purchase inspirational books whose authors have inspired me throughout my struggles to provide as gifts to orphans and vulnerable youth I met during my travel to sub-Saharan Africa. After returning from a trip to Zambia in June 2019, I began to plan future travels to visit the orphans and vulnerable youth, and it suddenly occurred to me during a conversation with a friend in August 2019 that sharing my own story would enable me to connect and relate to the orphans and vulnerable youth, since I have walked in their shoes after losing both parents at a young age. I was further inspired to share my own story after a Sabbath school discussion at church about living a legacy of God's faithfulness in one's life for the generation behind you.
In October 2019, I finally made the decision to publish this twenty--day devotional on God's continued faithfulness in my life. First, I created an outline of key topics and life lessons I wanted to impart into the lives of my readers, which made me realize I had a lot more to share than just a few pages. My hope with this devotional is to encourage orphans, vulnerable youth around the world, and anyone who has had to overcome many obstacles throughout life.
