  From USA Today bestselling author Audrey Blake comes a story of love, hope, and perseverance, following one woman's fight against an invisible enemy. 
  One woman physician. A group of talented midwives. A deadly disease spreading. 
  1849. Dr. Nora Gibson is the only female surgeon in London. In all of England, even. After earning her medical degree and overcoming the prejudice of those who wished to see her fail, she's finally earned her place at the Great Queen Street Hospital alongside her newlywed husband and her eccentric but ailing adoptive father, the great Dr. Horace Croft. 
  But peace is hard to come by as a physician, and for one like Nora, it's almost impossible. When Nora takes up the fight to bring midwives into the medical field, her already fragile reputation comes under fire by colleagues and London society itself. And if the possibility of losing her rights to practice medicine wasn't enough, a dangerous enemy has made itself known: the deadliest cholera epidemic in over a century. It's a swift disease that wreaks havoc and tragedy across the city, especially amongst the working classes, and Nora will do anything she can to help. Soon, she finds herself on the frontlines of the disease, and as those around her begin to fall, she'll have to find the strength to stand alone and maintain her greatest oath: to save lives. Whether she'll make it through, though, is up to fate.

  One day, Will Millhouse, an ordinary, lonesome bachelor, encounters a young girl who claims to be his daughter from the future. Should he believe her? Cristina of Aspen Aisle is a mystery, a frontier adventure, and a love story that reminds us of the echoing beauty and joy all around us, if we are willing to see with new eyes. 
    
  "It's exactly the kind of book I would love to read but is impossible to find. I suppose I feel...giddy, agape, aglow, awakened to fresh awareness 'that I too am a man in love.' It has all the freshness of a first novel but none of the flaws. I'm in awe of the mastery of plot, suspense, timing, tone: all such delicate matters yet handled with perfect pitch. Case has really learned well from L.M. Montgomery, and indeed improved upon her in that his writing is so brilliantly and unabashedly God-struck. And the clarity of the prose: all the way through there's nary a misstep in sentence structure, rhythm, dialogue, etc. The writing never gets in the way of itself, and this alone is no small feat." 
  —MIKE MASON, best-selling author of The Mystery of Marriage and Same Old, Same New

  The Children of Avalon: A Journey Through the Wyrd invites readers into a mythic world where the land hums with ancient stories and the threads of the Wyrd weave past, present, and future into one. 
  Sent by the Daughters of Avalon, Aurelia, Brynn, and Eira leave their marshland home to uncover the secrets of the Thorn Bushes—mystical guardians that hold the truths of the land and the soul. From the shifting currents of the Whisperflow to the shadowed groves of Brinmere and the haunting cliffs of the Mouth of Ffall, their path is anything but straight. The trio must confront visions of their fears and longings, face a Roman empire hungry for dominance, and uncover a past that refuses to be buried. 
  As the rune-stone guides their way, the companions encounter mystical allies like the enigmatic Merryn and his loyal corgi Kess, and face tests from the land itself. Each step brings them closer to understanding the Wyrd—not just as a force around them, but as a spiral of memory within their very souls. 
  A tale of self-discovery, resilience, and ancient magic, The Children of Avalon explores how understanding oneself is key to unearthing the truths of the world. For readers who long for rich folklore, lyrical storytelling, and the timeless clash between the old ways and the empires that try to claim them, this is a journey you won't forget.
