Sinopse

Morgan Knight, law enforcement widow, security company owner and sheriff’s department consultant on occult activities, has her vacation interrupted by her mother, who is determined to track down the source of the unusual grimoire that was found during Morgan’s previous adventure.
 
Just as the search heats up, her estranged brother Eric contacts her for the first time in twenty years and asks for her help in uncovering what exactly is going on in his new house. He refuses to believe it is haunted, despite evidence to the contrary.
 
Morgan has friends to call on to help her solve the mystery of her brother’s house, but when she uncovers a cult’s instructions on how to perform human sacrifice during the Solstice, local law enforcement dismisses her claims. As the Solstice grows ever nearer, Morgan feels impelled to stop the ceremony... no matter the cost.
 
The second book in Jo Beekman's Morgan Knight Mysteries series, 'Faded Children' is a look at how mystery can touch even the most ordinary of people, and how uncovering secrets can be dangerous... and maybe even deadly.

    Sunrise is a collection of interconnected stories continuing Erika Kobayashi's examination of the effects of nuclear power on generations of women. Connecting changes to everyday life to the development of the atomic bomb, Sunrise shows us how the discovery of radioactive power has shaped our history and continues to shape our future. 
     
     
     
    In the opening, eponymous story "Sunrise," Yoko, born exactly two years and one day after Nagasaki was decimated, mirrors her life to the development of nuclear power in Japan. In "Precious Stones," four daughters take their elderly mother to the restorative waters of a radium spring, exchanging tales of immortality. In "Hello My Baby, Hello My Honey," a woman goes into labor during the final days of WWII. And finally, "The Forest of Wild Birds" shows Erika visiting the site of the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant disaster, touring grounds that were once covered in green. 
     
     
     
    Translator Brian Bergstrom returns in this collection, bringing to life Kobayashi's unsettling, lasting, and striking prose. The stories in Sunrise force a reckoning with the lasting effects of known and unknown histories and asks how much of modern life is influenced by forces outside of our control.

    As their stories converge, the Oneness across the ages must press into the Spirit they hardly know, with only one certain promise: 
    From the ashes, truth will rise. 
    RISE is the fifth book in The Oneness Cycle, an urban fantasy series of spiritual warfare novels. If you love page-turning suspense, heart-pounding plotting, and fiction that unveils truth, this series is for you.
