  Paddy Whack is a historical tale of resiliency and coming of age from pianist and author Francis Martineau. Based in part on his own childhood in Scotland, each episode chronicles the story of a boy growing up in the shadow of World War II, the diary of his mother, and a separate correspondence between two would-be lovers attempting to find a semblance of normalcy in turbulent times. 
  Martineau's exquisite dramatic reading of the text brings the story to life with deep feeling, immense charm, and an evocative mix of local dialects. In addition, his original piano music dotted throughout makes this recording a uniquely personal expression. Settle in. You've never heard anything quite like this. 
  Paddy Whack is the first book in a series. Book two, A Far Cry, is now available as well.

  When the railroad comes to town, some fights are worth everything. 
   
  Thomas Hayes has spent four years building a life in Shamrock Ridge—a successful blacksmith shop, a respected place in the community, and a promising marriage to mail-order bride Fiona Long. But when railroad developers arrive with generous buyout offers and veiled threats, Thomas's carefully constructed world begins to crumble. 
   
  As neighbors turn away and the community fractures under pressure, Thomas considers the one thing he swore he'd never do again: run. But Fiona didn't abandon everything in New York to watch her husband surrender to shame. She's learned what it means to fight for what matters, and she won't let fear win—not in their marriage, and not in their town. 
   
  With friends rallying and enemies closing in, Thomas must choose between the safety of surrender and the courage to stand for what's right. Because sometimes the only way to prove you're not a coward is to face the fight that terrifies you most. 
   
  A story of love, loyalty, and the price of doing what's right when everything is at stake.

  What you are about to hear is a work of fiction, but the stage it walks upon is dangerously real. 
  Heidelberg, November 23, 2025. The silence is about to break. 
  From the looting of the Bibliotheca Palatina by the Vatican in 1623 to the construction of the Thingstätte amphitheater by the SS in 1935, the Holy Mountain above the Neckar hides scars of two thousand years. 
  Now, a secret resurfaces: Thirteen pages of cured goatskin, stiffened by the sweat of a man the world decided to call a God. Thirteen sentences, written by hand, trembling not from fear, but from the sheer voltage of the truth. 
  Written and narrated by Kristopher Kurt Kiene, The Gospel of Heidelberg walks the thin line between history books and the shadows they cast.

  Arnold Bennett was born in 1867 in Hanley one of the six towns that formed the Potteries that later joined together to become Stoke on Trent; the area in which most of his works are located. For a short time he worked for his solicitor father before realising that to advance his life he would need to become his own man. Moving to London at twenty-one he obtained work as a solicitor’s clerk and gradually moved into a career of journalism. At the turn of the century he turned full time to writing and shortly thereafter in 1903 he moved to Paris and in 1908 published to great acclaim The Old Wives Tale. With this his reputation was set. Clayhanger and The Old Wives Tale are perhaps his greatest and most lauded novels.
