  Three women. One mission. Enemies everywhere. 
  May 1944. When spy Elisabeth de Mornay, code name Cécile, notices a coded transmission from an agent in the field does not bear his usual signature, she suspects his cover has been blown—something that is happening with increasing frequency. With the situation in occupied France worsening and growing fears that the resistance has been compromised, Cécile is ordered behind enemy lines. 
  Having rendezvoused with her fellow agents, Léonie and Dominique, together they have one mission: help the resistance destabilize German operations to pave the way for the Normandy landings. 
  But the life of a spy is never straightforward, and the in-fighting within the resistance makes knowing who to trust ever more difficult. With their lives on the line, all three women will have to make decisions that could cost them everything—for not all their enemies are German.

  HAVAN – The Sacred Fire of Destiny

  The Fire Remembers 
  The air was thick with the scent of burning sandalwood and camphor. The dimly lit chamber, hidden deep within the ancient Himalayan monastery, resonated with the rhythmic chants of unseen voices. A single flame flickered in the center, casting elongated shadows on the stone walls covered in cryptic inscriptions. 
  A hunched figure, draped in saffron robes, knelt before the fire. His hands trembled as he traced the sacred symbols carved into the floor—a forgotten script, lost to time. He knew what he was about to do was forbidden. Yet, the prophecy had spoken. The fire had to be awakened once more. 
  He took a deep breath and whispered, "Agni smarati 
  The fire remembers. 
  As he placed the sacred herbs into the flames, the fire roared to life, turning blue, then violet, then an eerie white. The room trembled. Visions danced within the flames—cities rising and falling, kings and sages, battles of past lives. And then… her face appeared. 
  A woman. Eyes filled with longing and sorrow. A seeker, yet unaware of her quest. A soul burdened by karma she did not yet understand. 
  The sage gasped. She was coming. 
  He reached for an ancient scroll, untouched for centuries, and placed it before the fire. The wind howled through the cracks in the walls as the flames consumed the parchment, revealing a prophecy written in embers: 
  "When the lost one finds the fire, the past shall awaken, and destiny shall be rewritten." 
  Far away, in a bustling city of glass towers and ceaseless noise, Vaidehi stirred from her sleep, her heart pounding, her palms burning as if she had touched fire. 
  She did not yet know the path that awaited her. 
  She did not yet know the power hidden in the flames. 
  But the fire had remembered her. 
  And now, it was calling her home.

  Prepare yourself for a horror story of a different kind. This monster doesn’t have claws or carry a chainsaw. Instead, it lurks hidden and disguised in a dusty white powder that we keep in our medicine cabinets at home. This monster is ubiquitous, trusted, and engrained as part of our daily routine for over a century—and it is killing us. Talcum powder has been sprinkled on baby’s bottoms for generations and used in deodorants and a host of personal hygiene products and cosmetic for decades. This monster has been kept alive by lies, deceit, greed, and a thirst for power. Jane’s Dust is a fictionalized account of one woman’s struggle based on over three hundred court cases that have pitted cancer victims against America’s most powerful corporations. Jane is shocked when she ends up with ovarian cancer. But that is only the start. She endures doctor visits, surgeries, chemotherapy, recovered only to develop a life ending mesothelioma. and eventually a lawsuit against the makers of talcum powder. Jane learns the hard way about big business and the lies they use to cover up what they know. Nothing is exaggerated or embellished; this it is the reality faced by thousands of people, some of whom may be family, friends, or neighbors. Every horror story leaves us with a cautionary tale, and this one is no different.
