  Becca Sheridan comes home from overseas with big hopes, but Conrad Price, the center of those hopes, has changed. For one thing, he has kicked her square dancing club, the Four Corners, out of Windows on the River, the venue they have used for years. It's little comfort that he also kicked out the Tippy Toes tap dancing club, led by Becca's high school rival, Simone Radcliffe -- because now Conrad and Simone are an item. 
    
  Or are they? Over the months that follow, Conrad seems to be two people. His grandmother, Sarah Fontaine, grows afraid of him. Then estranged Fontaine relatives return to Cadburn Township, wanting to take away the family busines. Is Conrad trying to fix the family rift, or make it worse? Is he trying to get back together with Becca, or does Simone still have him wrapped around her glittery fingers? 
    
  When Sarah dies on vacation, and there is no body to bury, Becca starts asking questions she should have asked months ago. A Fontaine uncle vanishes, then there's a dead body in Cadburn Creek. Is Conrad trying to make things right with Becca or not? And just what is in the letters Sarah left behind, to be read at the settling of the family trust? 
    
  When Four Corners is allowed to return to Windows on the River, Becca should be dancing for joy. But something just doesn't feel right. What else will she uncover as she and friends from Book & Mug dig into what has been hidden all these months in Cadburn Township?

  James Spalding, Hunter Jeffries, and Ridley Levinson were not men that would run at the slightest sign of danger. No, they were the complete opposite. If anything, the three men never hesitated to run headlong straight towards danger. It was for this reason that the three of them made for such a potent group. Alone, they were already formidable in their own right, but as a single unit, they were almost a force of nature.

  Brady was born in Allegheny, Pennsylvania, and graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy in 1883. In 1889, he was ordained a deacon in the Episcopal church, and was ordained a priest in 1890. His first wife was Clarissa Guthrie, who died in 1890. His second wife was Mary Barrett. Brady's first major book, For Love of Country, whilst telling the story of a fictitious John Seymour, was actually based in part on the true heroics of Nicholas Biddle, one of the first five captains of the fledgling Continental Navy. Brady was also famous for his views of feminism and Women's suffrage, he preached many anti-suffrage sermons and described women voters as "an insult to God". In 1914 Brady began working as a screenwriter at Vitagraph Company of America.
  NARRATIVE OF THE MUTINY OF THE BOUNTY: About the year 1786, the merchants and planters interested in the West India Islands became anxious to introduce an exceedingly valuable plant, the bread-fruit tree, into these possessions, and as this could best be done by a government expedition, a request was preferred to the crown accordingly.

  My Land of Freedom - A poem of...

  This poem is a powerful reflection on war, displacement, and the struggle for freedom. It tells the tragic story of a people who fought for liberation but were met with violence, loss, and eventual surrender. Likely referencing the Igbo experience during the Nigerian Civil War, it captures the pain of oppression and the resilience of those who endured it. 
  The poem begins with a contradiction: "In my land of freedom, I walked with fear." This highlights the irony of living in a place meant to be free but being consumed by anxiety. The people demand justice, yet their cries are silenced by violence. The line "Killing our brothers, and leaving us undone" conveys both physical loss and emotional devastation. 
  The imagery of "scorching soil" and "separated from families" paints a picture of suffering and displacement. War does not just take lives—it tears families apart and leaves hearts unable to thrive. The mention of "refugee camps" emphasizes how many were forced from their homes, left to question their identity: "Are we unlucky, to be Igbo?" This speaks to a deep sense of abandonment and injustice. 
  The poem also highlights betrayal, as leaders fail to protect their people. "Everyone was a soldier, in this war we couldn't win." This line captures the grim reality of a war where survival itself was a battle. Despite their bravery, they were up against overwhelming forces. 
  The final lines are heartbreaking: "We had to surrender, and say goodbye to our pride." This is not just a loss of battle but a loss of dignity. Yet, even in surrender, their story lives on. This poem is a tribute to resilience, a reminder of suffering, and a call to remember those who fought, even when the world turned away.

  Human lives are useful currency to the gods of Law and Chaos, each deity imposing their own brand of tyranny—be it through unyielding order or chaotic upheaval—leaving mortals to bear the brunt of their divine indifference...until now.  
    
  Evil forces seek to steal the souls of the world. They didn't bargain on a mystic monk and a feisty witch to get in their way. This is their story. 
  When the demons came, ransacking his monastery, killing his friends and mentors, Kasai's mind screamed, "Flee! Run while you can!" But he didn't. Honor demanded he fight back, no matter the cost or how much he wanted it to be someone else's problem. 
    
  Escaping her doomed village, orphaned and alone, Desdemonia begins a new life in the deep forest. A chance encounter with a young monk sets events in motion which will force her to choose sides; fight for what is right and just or unleash the chaos magic burning in her veins against a world who has turned its back on her. 
    
  Enter the archdevil, Sekka of Gathos, hellbent on conquest and lacking but one final piece to guarantee her victory; the soul of the next Ever Hero. Hope will not be enough to stop her or the hordes of demons at her command. 
    
  Follow in the footsteps of two unlikely companions, fighting against overwhelming odds in a last-ditch effort to stop Sekka from opening a dreaded Chaos Gate, and with it the doom of the Three Kingdoms.
