Sarai - A Novel
Sarai, the last child of her aged father, is beautiful, spoiled, and
used to getting her own way. Even as a young girl, she is aware of the
way men look at her, including her half brother Abram. When Abram
finally requests Sarai's hand, she asks one thing--that he promise never
to take another wife as long as she lives. Even her father thinks the
demand is restrictive and agrees to the union only if Sarai makes a
promise in return--to give Abram a son and heir. Certain she can easily
do that, Sarai agrees.
But as the years stretch on and Sarai's womb
remains empty, she becomes desperate to fulfill her end of the
bargain--lest Abram decide that he will not fulfill his. To what lengths
will Sarai go in her quest to bear a son? And how long will Abram's
patience last?
The Apothecary's Daughter
Lillian Haswell, brilliant daughter of the local apothecary, yearns for
more adventure and experience than life in her father's shop and their
small village provides. She also longs to know the truth behind her
mother's disappearance, which villagers whisper about but her father
refuses to discuss. Opportunity comes when a distant aunt offers to
educate her as a lady in London. Exposed to fashionable society and
romance-as well as clues about her mother-Lilly is torn when she is
summoned back to her ailing father's bedside. Women are forbidden to
work as apothecaries, so to save the family legacy, Lilly will have to
make it appear as if her father is still making all the diagnoses and
decisions. But the suspicious eyes of a scholarly physician and a
competing apothecary are upon her. As they vie for village prominence,
three men also vie for Lilly's heart.
Elisha's Bones
Every year, professor of antiquities Jack Hawthorne looks forward to the
winter break as a time to hide away from his responsibilities. Even if
just for a week or two. But this year, his plans are derailed when he's
offered almost a blank check from a man chasing a rumor. Billionaire
Gordon Reese thinks he knows where the bones of the prophet Elisha
are--bones that in the Old Testament brought the dead back to life. A
born skeptic, Jack doesn't think much of the assignment but he could use
the money, so he takes the first step on a chase for the legendary
bones that will take him to the very ends of the earth. But he's not
alone. Joined with a fiery colleague, Esperanza Habilla, they soon
discover clues to a shadowy organization whose long-held secrets have
been protected . . . at all costs. As their lives are threatened again
and again, the real race is to uncover the truth before those chasing
them hunt them down.
I Shall Not Want
Charity work can be murder!
It's Thanksgiving and Joseph Tyler, one of
the members of Cindy's church, has organized a new charity that
provides homeless people with rescue dogs to love and care for. But one
by one, the homeless recipients are being murdered and their dogs
stolen. Could an overly competitive millionaire with his prize-winning
pooches and a grudge be behind the crimes? Or could it be someone much
closer to Joseph who has something sinister to hide? Cindy and Jeremiah
must rush to find a killer before he strikes again.
