Synopsis

A Booklist Top 10 Romance Novel of 2023 
 
Bestselling author Jocelyn Green sweeps you away in a dazzling novel of secrets, betrayal, and romance within one of New York City's most esteemed museums. 
 
For years her explorer father promised Dr. Lauren Westlake she'd accompany him on one of his Egyptian expeditions. But as the empty promises mounted, Lauren determined to earn her own way. Now the assistant curator of Egyptology for the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Lauren receives two unexpected invitations. 
 
The first is her repentant father's offer to finally bring her to Egypt as his colleague on a new expedition. The second is a chance to enter the world of New York's wealthiest patrons who have been victims of art fraud. 
 
With Egyptomania sweeping the city after the discovery of King Tut's tomb, Detective Joe Caravello is on the hunt for a notorious forger preying on the open wallets of New York's high society. Dr. Westlake is just the expert he needs to help him track the criminal. Together they search for the truth, and the closer Lauren and Joe get to discovering the forger's identity, the more entangled they become in a web of deception and crime.

    Bhagat Singh was only 23 years old when he was executed in 1931 for his role in the fight for India’s independence. A fiery revolutionary and a committed socialist, Singh’s acts of courage and his ideals left an indelible mark on the Indian freedom struggle; a testament of which is the significance and popularity of the ‘Enquilaab Zindabad’ slogan. A hundred years later, his influence has only grown, not waned, and his writings and speeches continue to be read, studied, and shared for their inspired, and inspiring, vision of a society founded on the principles of democracy, equality, and moral courage. "Why I Am An Atheist and Other Works", which includes additional letters and messages, delves into his thoughts on religion, politics, and the nature of the struggle for freedom. In these writings, Bhagat Singh reflects on his rejection of blind faith, his embrace of rationalism, and his deep commitment to secularism and social justice. His sharp intellect, unyielding courage, and unwavering ideals make this a compelling read for anyone interested in ideas of revolution, secularism, and social change.

    An astounding new claim about Jesus was first made in 1955: that he had commissioned twelve female apostles. Its source was The Urantia Book. Now, a newer source builds on that revelation, unveiling each one of the inspiring stories of these courageous women apostles. Our world is ready for the untold stories of the twelve female apostles commissioned by Jesus. The Bible mentions only a few of these women, but never refers to them as apostles. Only in 1955 was the role of these female counterparts to the male apostles revealed in The Urantia Book, a profound modern text that has gone on to sell over a million copies worldwide. This detailed new account corrects and supplements the New Testament's record for our global era. It stuns readers by explaining how Jesus’s attitude toward women was “the most astonishing and the most revolutionary feature of [his] mission on earth,” leading him to break with Hebrew tradition by appointing a women corps. Now, many decades later, we’ve been gifted with an even more expanded account of Jesus’s work with his most devoted female followers. The Women Who Loved Jesus shares inspiring new details of this long-suppressed story thanks to the eye-witness narrations provided by each of his dozen female apostles. Each woman steps forward to tell her story of how Jesus preached their spiritual equality with men, transformed their personal lives, and ordained them as a teachers and ministers of the gospel. For the first time, we see Jesus through the eyes of his most fervent women followers, and we also learn how their ministry—designed to be complemental to that of the male apostles—focused on creating a social network of healing and compassion. The task of the female apostolic corps was to create an environment for teaching and for healing at all levels through a variety of techniques Jesus personally supervised. Read this book to discover how these women laid the spiritual, energetic, and social foundation for the Christian church. Their messages to us are both universal and timely, as women all over the world are finally taking their rightful place as ministers, healers, and religious teachers.

    It's not what I lost. It's what I've found. I was only seventeen, just a girl, when God asked me for everything I had . . . my health, my hopes, my independence, my dreams, my freedom, and my mobility. He took it all. 
    I was so angry with Him that I tried to push Him away. God relentlessly held me more closely. Looking back, forty years later, I understand that God has changed and healed me--my heart and my mind--in the most unexpected ways, giving me rubies of His wisdom about an unbending faith and an experience of His mercy I can now tell you about. 
    Was it a fair exchange, my freedom and no wheelchair for the rubies of wisdom I've been given? Absolutely. In this I have learned at the feet of the Lord Jesus, embracing the way that God heals us, even when we rage at Him in anger, fear, and despair. This book is not about what I lost in that diving accident so long ago. It's about the wisdom He's given me to live life victoriously in the face of disappointments and challenges that we all face.
