  1885.  
  Adria Fontaine has been sent to recover goods her father pirated on the Great Lakes during the war. But when she arrives at Foxglove Manor--a stone house on a cliff overlooking Lake Superior--Adria senses wickedness hovering over the property. The mistress of Foxglove is an eccentric and seemingly cruel old woman who has filled her house with dangerous secrets, ones that may cost Adria her life.  
   
  Present day.  
  Kailey Gibson is a new nurse's aide at a senior home in a renovated old stone manor. Kidnapped as a child, she has nothing but locked-up memories of secrets and death, overshadowed by the chilling promise from her abductors that they would return. When the residents of Foxglove start sharing stories of whispers in the night, hidden treasure, and a love willing to kill, it becomes clear this home is far from a haven. She'll have to risk it all to banish the past's demons, including her own.

  This is an audiobook of Bodhi Leaves No. 90 by M. B. Werapitiya, Your Best Friend: And Other Essays, narrated by Tejendra Patel. The print edition can be found in the Pariyatti Edition of Collected Bodhi Leaves Vol. III. The eBook of Bodhi Leaves No. 90 can be downloaded from the BPS website.
   
  Excerpt:
   
  "To understand ourselves, we must live with ourselves and know all about ourselves. The mind for that matter is flickering, fickle, difficult to guard and control and flutters like a fish taken out of its watery abode and thrown upon the land. Somebody causes you hurt and although the aggressor has disappeared from sight, the hurt grows within you and every so often keeps surfacing with an overpowering intensity to give you a warp. Then again, you see something that has captured your attention and your mind has instantly photographed it from every conceivable angle with a see-through lens, developed it in your mental dark-room, brought out the prints and enlargements with the skill of an expert cameraman and processor rolled into one. Similarly, all the sense faculties and the mind are of high sensitivity and respond to anything and everything exciting. If the degree of excitement is not sufficiently satisfying, you step it up with the use of drugs, intoxicants and poisons. This activity goes on unabated and makes of you a human derelict. A wise person living in his mind protects himself holding himself dear. Such a person whose senses are subdued, whose pride is destroyed and is free from corruptions, is calm of mind, speech and action and rightly knows, and is perfectly peaceful and equipoised."

  A Fresh Vision of Spirit-Empowered Masculinity 
   
  As genders, marriages, and families come under attack, global men's movement leader Jake Hamilton reveals what true biblical masculinity is--and why our world desperately needs it right now. 
   
  In this book, Jake challenges and emboldens men to be who God created them to be. Diving into Scripture, ancient traditions, and the mythological story of Parzival, he uncovers twelve time-tested pathways God uses to train you to 
   
  · own the radical responsibility He's placed on men--no matter the cost 
  · use your unique perspectives and personality to fight the evil around you 
  · hold your ground with confidence, courage, and conviction 
  · no longer be sidelined by shame, addiction, depression, and disconnection 
  · live with purpose, clarity, integrity, and boldness 
   
  It's time for men of conviction and character to rise up, stand with humble strength, and learn to fight for your identity, marriage, children, and the Kingdom.

  Beautiful Disappointing Hopeful...

  Read by the author. 
  Life is both beautiful and disappointing. 
  In Beautiful, Disappointing, Hopeful, Drew Hyun explains how the Christian faith provides a lens through which we can understand the beautiful and disappointing world we live in, while offering the kind of promising hope we long for. 
  Throughout history we have tried to make sense of the world that we inhabit and how we can navigate through the tension of all that is good and broken in this life. Yet most of our attempts to avoid loss simply lead to greater anxiety—an unresolved fear that we will eventually lose what we most love and need.  
  Weaving a rich tapestry of Christian tradition and personal illustrations, Hyun offers Christianity as a true and compelling vision for life that faithfully points the way through loss to true beauty. He presents three deep practices that can build lasting spiritual resilience and help you learn how to grow through life's losses and disappointments. 
  By exploring these contemplative spiritual practices—Gratitude, Grieving, and Grace—as a means of centering your life more fully into a holistic spirituality, you can uncover meaningful responses to the full range of lived experiences that will lead you to a grounded yet transcendent hope. 
  Reflection questions and journaling prompts can be found in the audiobook companion PDF download.
