    The Home Office has asked Sir Bertrand Thorndike to head an investigation into stolen royal jewels. It's the perfect chance for Bertie to step out of his brother's long shadow. His superior, The Duke of Haverly, has a plan that makes him balk: in order to sell his cover, Bertie must play the part of a man looking for love, ready to reform his rakish ways. The duke is willing to let Bertie name his own investigative team, but his recommendation that the team include Philippa Cashel has Bertie on his guard. Does the duke—known for his behind-the-scenes machinations—have an ulterior motive? 
     
     
     
    Philippa Cashel escaped her life as one of society's best-known courtesans, devoting her life to helping other women in dire straits. So when Sir Bertrand Thorndike approaches her about joining his team as an agent of the Crown, she is skeptical. She's focused on getting her school for underprivileged women up and running, not in cloak-and-dagger skullduggery. Her hope is that if she labors hard enough at her charity work, she might begin to feel worthy of God's forgiveness. When one of Philippa's rescued girls is arrested for stealing the royal jewels and another is murdered, Philippa will risk partnering with Bertie to find the loot and stop the killer. Two brilliant minds—with two wary hearts—and one cunning deceiver are on a collision course in Regency England.

    Can work be worship?A Good Return does not provide maxims to get you through the day. Instead, it is an audiobook that encourages Christians to view their workspace as an avenue of worship.  The world of work is expanding. New technologies, industries and means of communication, have presided in the transition of the workplace into a fast, digital and busier–than–ever era.  With increasing demands and declining rewards, in whichever sector you care to name, work can become all–consuming, overwhelming, burdensome, dissatisfying, and more. It becomes easy to complain, drag one’s feet while getting out of the door, and face daily tasks with an apathetic attitude.  When battling external pressures and internal conflicts, the workplace is a challenging environment. We need equipped to tackle so many aspects of working life:  Salaries  Wealth  Time management  Motivation  Rest and Sabbath  The secular sacred divide  Eternal rewards  Our digital technological era  Gospel support  How should the Christian navigate these areas? John C. Lennox has crafted an audiobook with thoughtful, biblical and evangelical deliberation on our behaviour in, and towards, our work. With his trademark clarity, faithfulness and wisdom, Lennox invites us into a wider discussion on Christian approaches to lots of areas of working life.

    When a mother loses a baby, a depth of grief emerges unlike anything else. Confusion, frustration, and heartbreak overwhelm her mind. A questioning and wrestling with God unfolds, and she must learn how to navigate her life that is now forever changed. 
     
     
     
    This was the story of Rachel Dickey, a registered nurse who tragically lost her son at eighteen weeks gestation. Having faced this overwhelming grief, she speaks directly to listeners about her firsthand experiences and encourages moms to look to the truth of Scripture as they navigate their loss. 
     
     
     
    Looking for answers, Rachel began an in-depth study of what the Bible says regarding the life of the unborn, answering critical questions like, "When does life begin?", "Did God love my unborn baby?", and "Is my baby in heaven?" 
     
     
     
    A Water Lily among the Wildflowers teaches what the Bible says about these questions and many of the other questions grieving mothers have regarding this loss. Rachel notes how men and women grieve differently and offers tools to keep a marriage and relationship strong. She also addresses the wounding impact that other people have, taking a look at some of the hurtful statements many hear grieving the loss of their babies.

    The shadows hold secrets darker than they ever imagined. . . . 
     
    In 1888 Victorian England, Ami Dalton navigates a clandestine dual life. By day, she strives to establish herself as a respected Egyptologist, overcoming the gender biases that permeate academia. But with a heart for saving black-market artifacts from falling into the wrong hands, she is most often disguised as her alter ego, the Shadow Broker. 
     
    After eight years in India, Oxford's most eligible bachelor, Edmund Price, has come out of the shadows to run for Parliament and is in search of an Egyptologist to value a newly acquired collection. Expecting a renowned Oxford professor, Edmund instead finds himself entangled with Ami, the professor's determined daughter. As they delve into the treasures, their connection deepens, but trouble emerges when a golden griffin--rumored to bear the curse of Amentuk--surfaces, and they're left to wonder if the curse really is at play, or if something more nefarious is hiding among the shadows. . . . 
     
    "Don't miss all the romance, adventure, and danger in [this] new page-turner."--JULIE KLASSEN, bestselling author of Shadows of Swanford Abbey
