Sinopsis

In "Invincible Minnie," Elisabeth Sanxay Holding masterfully weaves a complex narrative that delves into themes of resilience, identity, and the often-overlooked depths of female experience. Set against a backdrop of 1940s America, the novel intricately explores the life of its titular character, Minnie, whose seemingly impenetrable facade conceals a labyrinth of vulnerabilities. Holding's prose combines elements of psychological realism and social commentary, creating a rich literary tapestry that reflects the societal constraints of her time while illuminating the internal struggles of women seeking autonomy. Elisabeth Sanxay Holding, an influential figure in 20th-century American literature, consistently illuminated the intricacies of women'Äôs lives through her writing. Born in 1889, her experiences as a woman navigating the evolving cultural landscape of her time profoundly informed her work. Holding'Äôs innate ability to capture the psychological nuances of her characters, especially women, stems from her own struggles and triumphs, making her depiction of Minnie not merely fictional but an evocative representation of real-life resilience. This captivating novel is essential for readers interested in feminist literature, character-driven narratives, and psychological depth. Holding'Äôs keen insights and intricate character studies invite readers to reflect on their own perceptions of strength and vulnerability, making "Invincible Minnie" a timeless exploration of the human spirit.

    Alec never expected his first assignment as a Collector for Solitaire to test more than just his strength. 
    Standing nearly seven feet tall and armed with martial arts training, Alec is used to his size and presence doing most of the work. But when he’s sent to collect a debt from a frail woman named Terry, he quickly realizes this isn’t the straightforward job he anticipated.

Their tense standoff escalates when a thrown knife turns the tables, leaving Alec questioning not only the ethics of his new role but also the hidden depths of Solitaire’s operations. 
    With his first job ending in chaos but somehow deemed a success, Alec learns that in Solitaire, winning isn’t always about strength—it’s about navigating the murky waters of loyalty, morality, and the unexpected twists of fate. As Alec earns his card as the Two of Spades, he finds himself drawn further into a world where nothing is as simple as it seems. 
    Fast-paced, action-packed, and layered with moral dilemmas, The Two of Spades is a gripping addition to the Solitaire Series that fans won’t want to miss.

    Charcuterie chef Katie Aubrey is overjoyed when asked to create charcuterie boards for the summer fashion show at the prestigious Hidden Boulders Community in Cave Creek. However, the challenge for Katie isn't designing the complex cured meat and cheese platters but rather, how to deal with Edith Ellory, the annoying food critic ghost who pesters her while she works. Lamentably, that becomes the least of her worries when the fashion show coordinator is found dead in the food pavilion clutching a handful of Katie's pancetta rosettes. 
     
     
     
    Toxicology reports indicate food poisoning, and Katie's charcuterie shop immediately falls under suspicion, even though none of the other meats showed any hint of foul play. 
     
     
     
    To make matters worse, the victim had a long and unpleasant history with one of Katie's employees. To save the shop's reputation and vindicate her employee, Katie needs to ditch her white apron and don some decent walking shoes before she becomes the next victim.

Three professional hitmen—Mark, Alistair, and Vincent—are drawn into a deadly competition where the prize is life itself, and the cost of failure is certain death. When Colleen Masters’s father, a powerful figure in the arms trade, is assassinated, her grief turns to vengeance. Determined to uncover the truth, she enlists Lloyd, her father’s trusted caretaker, to help orchestrate a ruthless game. Each assassin receives the same contract: eliminate the other two for a staggering reward. What begins as a straightforward mission quickly becomes a labyrinth of betrayal, shifting alliances, and hidden agendas. Mark relies on his military instincts, haunted by past traumas. Alistair approaches the game with precision and control, calculating every move. Vincent thrives on chaos, a volatile presence who bends the rules to his will. As the hunters become the hunted, each man must decide whom to trust and how far to go in order to survive. Set against a backdrop of power, secrecy, and personal vendettas, ‘A Game of Shadows’ is a taut exploration of revenge and the human need for control in a world built on lies. Every move counts, and in this game, shadows conceal more than they reveal.
