  Kael’Nyrin Scrolls The: Our...

  Where speculative fiction meets philosophical depth, this work redefines humanity’s place in the cosmic tapestry. 
  In the Mariana Trench, a crystalline obelisk revealed the Kael’Nyrin Scrolls—records of a trans‑dimensional civilization, Kardashev III architects who seeded life across galaxies. We are their legacy, children born of starlight. 
  It began in shadows: a rain‑slicked London alley, a scientist burdened by secrets handing me an encrypted drive. “The world deserves to know,” he whispered, then vanished—swallowed by the night. 
  Inside were fragments of the Scrolls and his desperate log. The Kael’Nyrin emerge not as conquerors but as subtle architects. Their creed: Guide without touching, shape without holding. Gardeners of life, conductors of a symphony spanning eons. 
  Yet their legacy bore fractures—schisms, rogue interventions, ecological collapses, genetic compromises echoing through time. The Scrolls reflect wisdom and humility, restraint over dominion, even as they acknowledged failure. 
  As the consortium buckles under the revelations, readers confront a staggering truth: our empathy, our art, our consciousness may be the lingering echo of a civilization that nurtured life without claiming it. 
  When a reckless experiment awakens the obelisk’s defenses, catastrophe strikes—a final lesson that power without wisdom brings ruin. The truth remains suppressed. 
  The ultimate message is responsibility—a sacred warning, a cosmic psalm, a quiet plea. Humanity must prove worthy of the light bestowed. The Kael’Nyrin set the stage. The pen now rests in human hands.

  At sixteen, I felt I would always be a misfit. 
  Popularity had eluded me, and I was pretty much a loner by choice. My world existed on the internet; gaming, and chat rooms were my escape, because there, my anonymity was my shield. 
  Known by my handle, D-10, I fit in with the others, and met some phenomenal virtual friends. One special friend in fact was Dastardly Damned. We clicked. We gamed online, and finally we made plans to meet at a local hangout. 
  Only I never saw his face.  
  I never saw what was coming. 
  My life would never be the same. 
  And Dastardly Damned would pay...

  From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Robert Rotstein, A True Verdict is an edge-of-your-seat legal thriller filled with secrets. 
  MediMiracle Corporation manufactures Sophrosyne, a miracle cure for opiate addiction. Ellison Ricard, a research analyst for the company, claims to have uncovered data that proves Black users of Sophrosyne experience fatal side effects far more often than people of other races. When Ricard confronts MediMiracle’s charismatic founder and CEO, Peyton Burke, a violent confrontation ensues. The wheelchair-bound Ricard—a Black man who had been severely injured years earlier—is fired that very day. 
  Ricard turns to aging lawyer M. Bailey Klaus, to sue Burke and MediMiracle for civil rights violations, alleging that Ricard was fired because he blew the whistle on the coverup and because he was Black. Klaus faces off against his former protégé, Cicely Pagano, each arguing for drastically different versions of Ricard. Is he a brilliant, sincere, credible person who is rightfully standing up against a deadly product? Or is he a delusional, embittered, and avaricious liar who is taking advantage of his former employer? 
  Ricard’s fate rests with an eight-person jury who can’t agree on anything. Working together to reach a consensus means navigating a tempest of the most divisive issues: politics, sexism, drug abuse, capitalism, healthcare, and racism. Can eight people with different backgrounds, ages, classes, and political views avoid coming to blows, much less render a true verdict? Told through court transcripts and jury deliberations, A True Verdict is a suspenseful ride to a shocking outcome …

Newly empty nesting with their daughter Maggie away at college, Jill suggests a road trip to reconnect.
