Book excerpt: A woman on the run uncovers a series of deadly secrets in this gripping, twisty standalone psychological thriller from award-winning master storyteller Catriona McPherson. Lowland Glen is the oldest bookshop in a quiet Scottish town full of bookshops; rambling and disordered, full of hidden treasures. Londoner Jude fell in love with it when she visited last summer, the high point of a miserable holiday. Now, in the depths of winter, it seems a strange place to run away to - but Jude's tired and heartsick, and when the bookstore's charming but eccentric owner, Lowell, welcomes her with open arms, she knows she's made the right decision. Lowell needs an assistant, and the job comes with accommodation too. The isolated gravedigger's cottage isn't perfect for a woman alone, but it's a good place to hide from her troubles - and at least she has quiet neighbors. Quiet, but not silent. The long dead and the books they left behind have tales to tell, and the dusty bookshop is not the haven it seems. Lowell's past and Jude's present are a dangerous cocktail of secrets and lies - and someone is coming to light the taper that could burn everything down around them . . .

Book excerpt: "Derrick Johnson, a Vietnam veteran and carpenter has fallen on hard times. He moves, or I should say, "flees" back to the Houston area where he hopes to find work in his field. His rented home at the dead end of a dirt road turns out to to be at the center of some very grisly goings on. The untended cemetery next door are his only neighbors. Gradually, Derrick works his way into the good graces of local police to help clean up some unsolved crimes that had been plagueing local authorities for too long. The search for guilty parties leads authorities to some unlikely suspects as Derrick's role becomes more involved. Nothing is beneath the perpetrators' diabolical behavior. This thriller will remind you why lock your doors at night."

Book excerpt: A woman on the run blows the dust off a series of deadly secrets It’s the oldest bookshop in a town full of bookshops; rambling and disordered, full of treasures if you look hard. Jude found one of the treasures when she visited last summer, the high point of a miserable vacation. Now, in the depths of winter, when she has to run away, Lowell’s chaotic bookshop in that backwater of a town is the safe place she runs to. Jude needs a bolt-hole; Lowell needs an assistant, and when an affordable rental is thrown in too, life begins to look up. The gravedigger’s cottage isn’t perfect for a woman alone, but at least she has quiet neighbors. Quiet, but not silent. The long dead and the books they left behind both have tales to tell, and the dusty rooms of the bookshop are not the haven they seem to be. Lowell’s past and Jude’s present are a dangerous cocktail of secrets and lies, and someone is coming to light the taper that could destroy everything. Praise: A 2016 Agatha Award Finalist for Best Contemporary Novel A 2017 Mary Higgins Clark Award Finalist A 2017 IPPY Award Bronze Medalist for Mystery/Cozy/Noir "Quiet Neighbors drew me in from the very first page, and I stayed up late reading it because I couldn't wait to find out what happened next. That's the definition of a good book."—Charlaine Harris, #1 New York Times bestselling author "McPherson writes mystery stories that are both cozy and creepy, which accounts for the quirky charm of Quiet Neighbors."—The New York Times "Outstanding."—Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Layer upon layer of deception."—Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "McPherson is a master of slightly creepy narratives that are complex and character driven."—Library Journal (starred review) "Quiet Neighbors is a real find . . . This is one of those ideal stories that you cannot put down and actually feel sad when it's over."—Suspense Magazine "Quiet Neighbors is a cleverly conceived, skillfully executed, decidedly nontraditional small-town mystery that is bursting at the seams with warmth, wit, moxie, and menace."—Mystery Scene “Despite the dark underpinnings, this is also a story of love, family, trust, and forgiveness.”—Booklist "Intricately layered and psychologically taut."—The Strand Magazine

Book Synopsis Peaceful Neighbor by : Michael Long

Download or read book Peaceful Neighbor written by Michael Long. This book was released on 2015-03-13. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fred Rogers was one of the most radical pacifists of contemporary history. We do not usually think of him as radical, partly because he wore colorful, soft sweaters made by his mother. Nor do we usually imagine him as a pacifist; that adjective seems way too political to describe the host of a children's program known for its focus on feelings. We have restricted Fred Rogers to the realm of entertainment, children, and feelings, and we've ripped him out of his political and religious context. Rogers was an ordained Presbyterian minister, and although he rarely shared his religious convictions on his program, he fervently believed in a God who accepts us as we are and who desires a world marked by peace and wholeness. With this progressive spirituality as his inspiration, Rogers used his children's program as a platform for sharing countercultural beliefs about caring nonviolently for one another, animals, and the earth. To critics who dared call him “namby-pamby,†Rogers said, “Only people who take the time to see our work can begin to understand the depth of it.†This is the invitation of Peaceful Neighbor, to see and understand Rogers's convictions and their expression through his program. Mister Rogers' Neighborhood, it turns out, is far from sappy, sentimental, and shallow; it's a sharp political response to a civil and political society poised to kill.
