  Amidst the violent weather of Europe's Little Ice Age, "A Slender Tether" offers a novel in linked stories on self-discovery, woven into a rich tapestry of 14th century France. Christine de Pizan, now heralded as Europe's first feminist and brilliant author, grapples with ambition and alienation amid the beautiful women at court. A doctor finds an unusual way to cope with the death of his wife. And opportunity alternates with disasters in the lives of four commoners who are yoked by necessity: a papermaker struggling to keep his business, a falconer with a mysterious past, a merchant's daughter frantic to avoid an arranged marriage, and a down-on-his-luck musician with a broken guitar and the voice of an angel.

  When eight-year-old Nora arrives at the Park Ridge School for Girls in 1932, she is sure there’s been some mistake. She can’t imagine why she and her little sister, Patsy, were torn from their mother only to be subjected to the cruel whims of the house matron, Mrs. Morris. When their mother fails to rescue them week after week—and Mrs. Morris drops hints that their mother may be a “fallen woman”—Nora begins to doubt they will ever see her again. 
  Nine years prior, at seventeen, Gertie Gufftason runs off with Lorenzo, the barker for the traveling carnival passing through her small coal-mining town in Southern Iowa. Thinking she is embarking on a fantastic adventure, Gertie is bitterly disappointed by the life that follows and is thrown into despair when the State removes their two daughters. 
  Gertie eventually tracks down her girls at the Park Ridge, but, expecting a warm welcome, she is shocked by Nora’s cool reception. Nora reluctantly returns home with Gertie and Patsy, determined to live a more perfect life than her mother. It is only when she discovers a secret Gertie has kept hidden all these years that Nora begins to fully understand—and forgive—her mother’s tragic choices . . .

  Embers & Water - The Prophet's Call

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  What if prophecy didn’t stay in the clouds but walked a market lane at dawn—brushing spice dust from its sleeves, bargaining for figs, and telling the truth where children could overhear it? Embers & Water: The Prophet’s Call is that story: a fantasy-inflected, historically grounded novel inspired by the book of Isaiah—where the word of God doesn’t thunder from a safe distance but lands on streets, kitchens, and palace steps until people have to decide what to do next. 
  Your guide is Asahel ben Jeduthun, a temple singer and scribe with quick hands, a careful eye, and no taste for heroics. Through Asahel’s single, steady point of view, you’ll meet Isaiah son of Amoz—not as a statue or slogan, but as a man whose sentences interrupt parties, steady kings, and lift widows. Around them a city comes into focus: Miriam, who kneads bread and courage with the same hands; Eliab, a fig seller learning to love honest weights; Shira, a merchant’s daughter trading spectacle for substance; Reuben, a guard unlearning noisy strength; and Shebna, a climber whose carved ambitions can’t keep his name from shrinking. 
  This is fiction inspired by Scripture, not commentary disguised as a novel. Where the text speaks, the story follows; where the text is silent, the story supplies human detail that honors its direction. Expect a narrative with momentum—not oracle after oracle, but a clear arc: 
  A vineyard song freezes laughter in a noble’s courtyard. 
  A king at the aqueduct hears a sign he does not want. 
  A bonfire of household gods crackles in the square. 
  The Assyrian herald’s mockery under the wall meets a city’s disciplined silence. 
  Deliverance comes in a night without arrows. 
  A sundial walks backward because mercy says so. 
  A long season of comfort teaches a people to keep Sabbath, prove their scales, forgive debts, and welcome strangers. 
  And through it all, the shadow of a Servant appears—gentle, burden-bearing, strong enough to heal without spectacle.

  As she wrestles with this new reality, she learns more than she counted on about her father's work.

In the midst of this upheaval she meets the beguiling Matthew Eaton, the nephew of one of President Jackson's staunchest allies, who may or may not be on her side. 
  As Julia continues to throw herself into the cause and considers more drastic action to educate herself further, she’ll be faced with a decision that could cause irreparable damage to her place in her family. What lengths will Julia go to advocate for a cause she believes in?
