  In the Lebanese village of Bhamdoun in 1931, Joseph Friedmann is born to a 15-year-old Syrian-Jewish girl hastily married off to a Belgian businessman thirty years her senior. After his parents divorce, Joseph's new Christian step-father refuses to rear a Jewish child. At the age of eight, Joseph is banished to a Catholic convent, where he experiences betrayal, anti-Semitism, and a deep trauma he cannot bring himself to name. He learns to survive by locking away his feelings. But at the age of fifteen, he allows himself to fall in love with Isabella, a nun-in-training. This, too, ends in heartbreak. She leaves the convent, taking with her Joseph's unborn child and his hopes of ever belonging in Lebanon. 
  Joseph sets out on foot toward Palestine, where he takes part in Israel's 1948 War of Independence. He is finally home. But his new country needs his unique set of skills, and Joseph returns to Lebanon as an Israeli spy. Over time, the tools of his trade - daring, violence, deceit, and suppression of self - exact an ever-increasing toll. After twenty years under cover, he completes one final, decisive operation. Now he faces a choice: escape to safety in Israel, or attempt to lay claim to his future by confronting the past - the mother who forsook him; the abbess who abused him; the lover who deserted him. 
  THE WOLF SHALL DWELL WITH THE LAMB is a literary thriller. This work contextualizes the geopolitical, religious, social and historical realities of the Arab-Israeli conflict and the roots of the current violence in the Middle East. The world needs this novel precisely at this time. The book reminds us of the historical imperatives leading to the founding of the State of Israel, while acknowledging the pain and longing experienced by its Arab citizens and neighbors.

  The truth takes a detour in this cozy camping whodunit set in the beautiful New Mexico wilderness—first in the Black Horse Campground Mystery series. 
   
   
    
  The Black Horse Campground, outside of Bonney, New Mexico, has been in Corrie Black's family for years. But since her father's death, she's been running it alone—along with her trusted employees and an eccentric group of year-rounders and regular visitors. 
   
   
    
  In between spring break and summer is usually a downtime for Corrie and the campground, even with Bike Rally Weekend on the horizon. This April, however, peace and quiet are not an option. A disconcertingly attractive biker arrives, who arouses the suspicions of Corrie's childhood friend and one-time ex, Sheriff Rick Sutton. Then, one of Corrie's favorite guests is shot dead in his own RV, leaving his wheelchair-bound wife in the care of a son whom no one knew existed. 
   
   
    
  And though Corrie is warned by Rick to stay out of his investigation, she can't sit by while her home and friends are threatened. And no one is more surprised than Corrie when she discovers that her little piece of paradise is brimming with secrets and scandals that put a gun in the hands of a most unlikely killer . . .
