Описание: A storm-struck island. A blood-soaked bed. A missing man. In this captivating mystery that's perfect for fans of Knives Out, Senior Investigator Shana Merchant discovers that murder is a family affair. Thirteen months ago, former NYPD detective Shana Merchant barely survived being abducted by a serial killer. Now hoping to leave grisly murder cases behind, she's taken a job in her fianc 's sleepy hometown in the Thousand Islands region of Upstate New York. But as a nor'easter bears down on her new territory, Shana and fellow investigator Tim Wellington receive a call about a man missing on a private island. Shana and Tim travel to the isolated island owned by the wealthy Sinclair family to question the witnesses. They arrive to find blood on the scene and a house full of Sinclair family and friends on edge. While Tim guesses they're dealing with a runaway case, Shana is convinced that they have a murder on their hands. As the gale intensifies outside, she starts conducting interviews and discovers the Sinclairs and their guests are crawling with dark and dangerous secrets. Trapped on the island by the raging storm with only Tim whose reliability is thrown into question, the increasingly restless suspects, and her own trauma-fueled flashbacks for company, Shana will have to trust the one person her abduction destroyed her faith in--herself. But time is ticking down, because if Shana's right, a killer is in their midst and as the pressure mounts, so do the odds that they'll strike again.

Описание: Senior Investigator Shana Merchant has spent years running from her past. But she never imagined a murder case would drive her to the most dangerous place of all--home.
After leaving the NYPD following her abduction by serial killer Blake Bram, Shana Merchant hoped for a fresh start in the Thousand Islands of Upstate New York. Her former tormentor has other plans. Shana and Bram share more than just a hometown, and he won't let her forget it. When the decades-old skeleton of Shana's estranged uncle is uncovered, Bram issues a challenge: Return home to Vermont and solve the cold case, or the blood he spills next will be on her hands. As Shana interviews members of her family and the community, mining for secrets that could help her solve her uncle's murder, she begins to realize how little she remembers of her childhood. And when Bram grows impatient and kidnaps again, leaving a trail of clues Shana alone can understand, she knows his new victim will only survive if she wins the psychopath's twisted game. In order to solve one mystery, Shana must wade into her murky past to unravel another.

Описание: Written by a school counselor who partially messed up his own life and who has seen many others mess up their lives by making bad dating choices, True Love Lasts communicates in a down-to-earth manner important information about healthy relationships that teens and young adults need to know - with the goal of helping to significantly reduce the number of broken hearts and the divorce rate in our society. Wegert suggests a strong approach to dating as an alternative to the devastating weak approach to dating that's constantly being promoted by the media and our popular culture. This book is very similar to the books Straight Talk About Teen Dating and Straight Talk About Dating except that it has a character emphasis instead of a Christian emphasis.From the AuthorThis book was written in order to communicate crucial information that can help people to maximize the possibility that one day they'll find true love and have a lifelong loving marriage. Here's some of the main points that I explain in detail in the book:1. Many teens and young adults start dating before they're ready and use the disastrous weak approach to dating in which dating choices are made mainly based upon liking someone, feelings, and looks. Unfortunately, this approach usually leads to a broken heart 2. A good amount of time and effort needs to be put into preparing yourself for a healthy relationship3. If you prepare yourself for a healthy relationship by learning when, who, and how to date - you're more likely to make good dating choices and have a lifelong loving marriage 4. It's important that you become a strong person before you start dating and that you only date another strong person5. If at all possible, you should try to find a way to get to know someone before dating and you should be very selective about who you decide to date 6. Dating should be a slow process in which you carefully discover what the person you're dating is really like - and whether or not he or she possibly is the person that you want to be married to for the rest of your life7. Many people don't realize that getting the feeling of being "in love" is relatively easy - especially during dating8. Having the feeling of being "in love" makes people ignore danger signs and serious problems in their significant other - problems that could destroy a healthy relationship9. True love is much more than just having the feeling of being "in love" - it's supposed to be a mutual lifelong commitment10. Having the feeling of being "in love" and having true love aren't good enough reasons alone to get married11. Way too many people decide to get married without going through a careful marriage decision making process and they end up getting married too quickly for the wrong reasons - often with unhappiness and divorce as the result 12. Marrying a person who isn't a hard worker almost always is a big mistake13. The first step toward finding a person with whom you could eventually have a lifelong loving marriage is to become the type of person that you want to date - a strong personI hope that you decide to read the book
Описание: Written by a school counselor who partially messed up his life by making bad dating choices, Straight Talk About Teen Dating communicates important information about a God-centered approach to dating that is an alternative to the devastating selfish approach to dating taught to us by the media and our popular culture. In a down-to-earth way, the author explains how to prepare for dating by becoming the type of person that God wants you to date (a keeper), when and who to date, how to attract a keeper, how to do dating right, how to decide whether or not to continue in a dating relationship, the difference between the feeling of being "in love" and true love, how to one day decide whether or not to get married, and much more. Wegert shares in each of the twenty-five chapters something about dating or something related to dating that he wishes he'd known before dating and during dating - with the hope of helping teens to avoid a broken heart or worse and to one day have a lifelong loving Christian marriage. The themes of how much God loves us, how He wants only the best for us, and His willingness to forgive us regardless of what we've done flow throughout the book. From the Author: We've been taught by the media and our popular culture to believe that there is only one approach to dating. The message that we receive relentlessly every day is that when a person wants to start dating all they need to do is begin searching for a person with looks, personality, and possibly money who they like, who they feel attracted to - so that they can "fall in love" with them. Since we watch people start romantic relationships over and over again on TV and in the movies and see our friends starting romantic relationships using this approach and it seems to work - we really believe the fairy tale that all we have to do is search for a person who has everything we want and be ready to "fall in love and live happily ever after." I made this painful mistake in my life. Unfortunately, this approach has several major problems. The first problem is that it's based upon selfishness. Can you see it? A person using this approach is just trying to get what they want for themselves. The second problem is that the result of using this approach is usually heartbreak or worse. In fact, in history the number of broken hearts from using this approach is in the billions - and sadly even after having their heart broken, most people use the same approach over and over again because they don't know what else to do. The third problem with this approach is that it promotes that being lazy is OK - it basically says that a person doesn't have to do much of anything to prepare themselves for dating - just be searching and be ready because you never know when you are going to "fall in love." Doesn't this approach sound a lot like gambling? - part of it's allure is that it's kind of mysterious and exciting. But just like gambling, the odds of winning (by having a lifelong loving marriage) are stacked against you. But the biggest problem with this approach is that it doesn't include God. Isn't it unbelievably sad that most people use an approach to dating that's based upon a fairy tale, selfishness, and laziness, that's a lot like gambling, that rarely works, and that doesn't include God?Straight Talk About Teen Dating was written to communicate to teens about a better approach to dating - an approach that includes God during the preparation for dating, while dating, and when making the decision of whether or not to get married - an approach that will help them to maximize the possibility that they will have a lifelong loving Christian marriage.
