Sinossi

At the heart of blazing summertime, some individuals are only able to feel their darkest sorrows that mirror the cold loneliness of the harshest of winters. Sometimes, it takes all the strength a person has just to keep going, one foot in front of another, one painful step at a time.  
 
This is a short story about a woman's thoughts as she takes a lonely walk in the countryside during a humid August evening.

    We all conceal some secrets that we dare not share with anyone. But for Captain Henry Kendall—who has borne a particularly heavy burden of secrecy for decades—the thought of carrying them with him into the afterlife, still unspoken, is just too much. And so, on his deathbed, he confides his untold story to the kind young nurse taking care of him, hoping to, perhaps, find some redemption at last. For the rest of that nurse’s life, the captain’s story remains a mystery never forgotten nor confirmed. Or at least, not until forty-two years later, when she happens upon an article about a 97-year-old English murder—committed by the infamous “London Cellar Murderer”— confirming at least a part of the captain’s story, as well as the murderer’s connection to the tragic sinking of the Empress of Ireland, the curse believed to have caused it, and most intriguingly, to Captain Henry Kendall himself! Inspired by actual historical events and challenged by scientific evidence gathered in the interim, The Fateful Voyage of the Empress of Ireland - A Tale of Betrayal, Redemption, and the Wrath of a Curse will grab readers right from the start with its story of love, betrayal, and tragic consequences, on land and at sea. As readers dive into this fascinating account, they are welcome to form (or rethink) their own beliefs about what really happened on that “fateful voyage,” as well as the events that (perhaps) birthed the very curse that sank the mighty ocean liner to the bottom of the St. Lawrence River on May 28, 1914.

    Two novellas of love, secrets, and heart-stopping adventure from bestselling author Heather Graham In “Lonesome Rider,” born to a Sioux mother and a white father, Blade McKenna grew up between two opposing worlds, never wholly belonging to either. The Civil War brought him yet more sorrow and loss. Now Blade is a man who lives only for revenge. This violent, merciless wilderness is no place for beautiful Easterner Jessica Dylan, who is on her own mission to clear her late husband’s name. Rescuing the elegant, emerald-eyed beauty from marauding Apaches exacts a higher price than Blade is willing to pay. Unless the promise of love can ease a bitter loner’s heart . . . In “Wilde Imaginings,” Allyssa Evigan arrives in an ancient town on the English moors to claim her inheritance. She has no idea why the great-grandfather she never knew left her magnificent Fairhaven Castle—or why her mother died with words of guilt on her tongue. And who is the dark, haunting stranger who fetches her at the station on his midnight steed? Handsome, brooding Brian Wilde, who lives at a hunting lodge nearby, denies ever having seen her before. Is Allyssa losing her mind? Or is danger stalking her? Brian’s touch might fill her with fire, but Allyssa begins to fear that he is the keeper of the castle’s deadly secrets. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Heather Graham, including rare photos from the author’s personal collection.

    In A Week of Shadows and Light, the author presents a touching account of grieving, resilience and the human ability to recover. 
      
    David is adrift. Grieving the sudden death of his wife, Sarah, he now wallows in his own despair, his life teetering on the edge of vainness. Does he have the resolve to find purpose again in the week that will decide his fate? Feeling lost in the grip of depression, David encounters unexpected allies to help him rediscover his strengths. 
      
    Concentrating on the period that signals the height of his depression, this short story is a poignant tale of journeying from despair to the first bright rays of hope. Its disarming honesty and empathy vividly capture both the tragic complexity of mental health struggles and the simple beauty of human connection. 
      
    A Week of Shadows and Light reminds us to keep climbing that dark stair, even when we feel like we might fall. It extends its comforting, dancing darkness – its light-suffused shadow – to anyone who has loved and lost and gives inspiration to anyone confronting shadows. 
      
    This book focuses on the invisible battles fought daily by many and helps foster understanding and compassion.

    A Letter to a Hindu

    "A Letter to a Hindu" (also known as "A Letter to a Hindoo") was a letter written by Leo Tolstoy to Tarak Nath Das on 14 December 1908. The letter was written in response to two letters sent by Das, seeking support from the Russian author and thinker for India's independence from colonial rule. 
    In "A Letter to a Hindu", Tolstoy argued that only through the principle of love could the Indian people gain independence from colonial rule. Tolstoy saw the law of love espoused in all the world's religions, and he argued that the individual, nonviolent application of the law of love in the form of protests, strikes and other forms of peaceful resistance were the only alternative to violent revolution. These ideas ultimately proved to be successful in 1947 in the culmination of the Indian independence movement.
