  In 1819, a young man outwitted death at the hands of John and Lavinia Fisher and sparked the hunt for Charleston's most notorious serial killers. Former homicide investigator Bruce Orr follows the story of the Fishers, from the initial police raid on their Six Mile Inn with its reportedly grisly cellar to the murderous couple's incarceration and execution at the squalid Old City Jail. Yet there still may be more sinister deeds left unpunished, an overzealous sheriff, corrupt officials, and documents only recently discovered all suggest that there is more to the tale.

  On April 12, 1945, a fleet of American B-29 bombers flew toward Japan. Their mission was simple: Stop World War II by burning the cities, factories, and military bases of the Japanese em­pire, thereby forcing an unconditional surrender. But it didn't go as planned. Beyond Valor is one soldier's extraordinary tale of bravery, faith, and devotion. 
  Onboard one of the B-29s, the City of Los Angeles, a phosphorus bomb detonated inside the plane. Staff Sergeant Henry E. "Red" Erwin absorbed the blast of burning phosphorus and managed to throw the still-flaming bomb overboard be­fore collapsing from the third-degree burns that covered his body. 
  Breaking protocol, the plane diverted to a military hospital at Iwo Jima. President Truman quickly ordered that Erwin be awarded the Medal of Honor, the highest honor of the American military. 
  Drawn from in-depth interviews with eyewitnesses and deep archival research, Beyond Valor tells the gripping story of Erwin's life--from his upbringing in the suburbs of Birmingham, Alabama to his enduring commitment to supporting veterans. Beyond Valor gives you a front-row seat to Erwin's amazing life and legacy. Along the way, you'll learn:How Erwin's childhood in Birmingham shaped his faith and his familyHow a split-second decision changed the course of his lifeThe countless ways that Erwin chose to give back to his fellow veterans after he returned home 
  Beyond Valor is about more than that fateful day in April 1945. It's a story of one man's journey from the ultimate despair to a place beyond service, beyond honor, and beyond valor: a life illuminated by the light of God's love.

  The Golden Age Restored is a stunning piece of alchemical work that is vivid in its descriptions and a Jungian utopia for dream analysis and analogy of the individuation process.Originally written in 1622 by a German physician and alchemist under the pseudonym Henry Madathanas, The Golden Age Restored was published publically in the Musaeum Hermeticum (1625) and later translated into English by Arthur Edward Waite in his work The Hermetic Museum, Vol. I (1893). Waite's version of the text has been diligently edited by Jones so that it can be easily digested by modern readers.Jones has also included a foreword introducing the text and diligently footnoted the work to give meaning and context to the original writing.

  'Often poetic ... highly-researched and thought-provoking'New Scientist
  'Gently and thoughtfully enquiring' The Spectator
  
  Can you remember the first time you encountered true darkness? The kind that remains as black and inky whether your eyes are open or closed? Where you can't see your hand in front of your face?
  
  Jacqueline Yallop can. It was in an unfamiliar bedroom while holidaying in Yorkshire as a child, and ever since then she has been fascinated by the dark, by our efforts to capture or avoid it, by the meanings we give to it and the way our brains process it.
  
  Taking a journey into the dark secrets of place, body and mind, she documents a series of night-time walks, exploring both the physical realities of darkness and the psychological dark that helps shape our sense of self. Exploring our enduring love-hate relationship with states of darkness, she considers how we attempt to understand and contain the dark, and, as she comes to terms with her father's deteriorating Alzheimer's, she reflects on how our relationship to the dark can change with time and circumstance.
  
  Darkness captivates, baffles and appals us. It's a shifty thing of many textures, many moods, a state of fascination and of horror, an absence and a presence, solace and threat, a beginning and an end. Into the Dark is the story of the many darks that fascinate and assail us. It faces the darkness full on in all its guises and mysteries, celebrating it as a thing of beauty while peering into the void.

  Olivia Chadwick—a young mother and self-critical personal trainer—first met insurance magnate Garnet Morris at 6 am on a winter morning in Saskatoon, Canada. Chadwick's task was to help prepare Morris for the grueling,100-mile Kananaskis relay, but she had reservations—about his coachability as well as her ability to reach him while juggling her own professional, familial and maternal struggles. 
  Through mutual hesitations, their seasons-long training schedule led to profound and unexpected conversations. As it turned out, the coach needed coaching on self-esteem and self-forgiveness—as well as someone to believe in her as she rebuilt her own strength. 
   In 17 Runs, co-authors Chadwick and Morris chart the course of their unique camaraderie around initial differences and toward mutual transformation. Through their challenging push-pull, they tell a story that’s a testament to the renewing power friendship can have on our lives, businesses and ability to love. 
  Full of entrepreneurial wisdom on overcoming limitations, 17 Runs is a self-development story like no other. By turns motivational, amusing and heart-breaking, it is a must-read for anyone who needs coaching on how to run toward a life they truly choose.
