  Anyone who knows her wouldn’t be surprised to learn that Jilly sees the world through a prism of faerie tales. It was years before I came to understand that she wasn’t just being whimsical when she talked so easily about hobs and brownies and various kinds of faerie creatures. 
   
  They were real. 
   
  Faerieland, otherworlds, and all the denizens and creatures you might imagine to live there. 
   
  It was all real. 
   
  And so were ghosts. 
   
  I remember when I first realized this. I felt like my head was going to explode. 
   
  *** 
   
  Juniper should have known better after her last foray into the otherworld. But when she’s asked to look into a mysterious box full of poltergeists she ends up making a promise to seven teenage ghosts that puts here directly in the crosshairs of a blood witch’s deadly ire.

  THE PROTECTORS: Though they work independently and at times are oceans apart, their ties to each other remain strong. They're related by blood or bond – this group of men and women in law enforcement, government intelligence, and the military who do what others cannot to serve, defend, and protect. 
   GUILTY: THE PROTECTORS SERIES — BOOK FIVE. 
   The brutal murder of a school teacher appears to be an open and shut case. Despite the overwhelming evidence against homeless drifter James Gaines, public defender Faith Winston makes sure she is assigned to defend him. But Faith has an agenda of her own—even if it means a guilty man will go free. 
   Chief of Police Ryan Crosby ended his relationship with Faith in a breakup that shattered them both, but he has not stopped loving her. When Faith's representation of Gaines makes her a target for revenge, Ryan reenters her life to protect her. He finds himself in a battle to find her assailant, and in a battle with Faith herself who will not trust him again with her heart. 
   But when Gaines escapes from custody, Faith is abducted and Ryan is in a race against time to find her. One woman is already dead and Faith is next.

  ‘Komatipoort Bridge’ is an exciting story of espionage and Special Forces operations during the Boer War. The book is also a poignant commentary on the British Empire at its zenith. In 1899 the two Boer Republics of the Transvaal and Orange Free State invade the British colonies in South Africa. In doing so, they lose access to British-controlled ports and are forced to rely on a single supply line from the Portuguese-owned harbour at Lourenco Marques which enters the Transvaal over a railway bridge at the tiny settlement of Komatipoort. William Brown, a former Army officer and businessman with a close knowledge of the area, is recruited to choke off the supply line set up by the Boers.

  You can't override the heart 
   
  It may seem odd to seek peace by moving to a war-torn African country, but for medical missionary Dr. Cynthia Myers, it provided a way to escape a shallow life of unearned wealth, a philandering fiancé, and a father now square in the public eye as vice president of the United States. At least here she knows her work and life have meaning. But all that is thrown into chaos when she fails to save the life of a local warlord's mortally wounded son. 
   
  As part of the Army Special Forces A-Team on a mission to capture and subdue the warlord, Captain Rick Norton is compelled to use deadly force to save Cynthia's life. Enraged at the violence she witnessed and riddled with guilt that men died because of her, Cynthia doesn't want to like anything about Rick and his team--but an unexpected attraction is taking hold. 
   
  With two members of his team badly injured and rebels in hot pursuit, Rick will have to draw upon all his strength and cunning to get her out alive . . . because he's beginning to think that, despite their differences, they just may be able to make a life together.

  The last great war has been fought – but you wouldn’t know it here in the deep desert of what was once America. The sun beats down as it always has and always will on this unforgiving landscape. The few inhabitants of this land - oblivious and uncaring about the greater events in what was once a more civilized world – all except one. 
  Months after the disappearance of her daughter, Emily - Jess Flood has resigned herself to daily survival when the unexpected happens: a radio signal from an unknown man playing music. Jess makes contact with Tony Myles, surviving on a boat offshore - caught at sea after the war began. 
  As they find their predicaments approaching something humanly bearable, Jess finds something that could lead her to Emily. Jess follows the trail as Tony waits in solitude, his mind dwelling over his missing crewmates. 
  The trail leads Jess to a derelict desert town, while Tony makes his own troubling discoveries. What will happen to them - as danger surrounds?
