This epic novel tells the story of Moses from the viewpoints of the women who loved him-from his mother and sister, who saved him by giving him up to the Egyptian princess who adopted him, to the shepherd's daughter he married. One called him son. One called him brother. One called him husband. And all three suffered for him. Under the shadow of ancient Egypt, a baby boy is born to a peasant woman. His young sister leaves him in a basket in a river, hiding in the rushes to watch over him until a princess comes to claim the child as her own. The princess names him Moses, and he grows to become a man whose life is characterized by violence and terror, but equally by faith, and whose sacrifice ultimately leads to the redemption and liberation of his people from slavery. "The Shadow Women" is a novel full of passion and intrigue that offers a fresh perspective on one of the most enigmatic figures in biblical history.

Murder is afoot is the sedate English city of Royal Tunbridge Wells...and the crime may be brewing in a tea pot! Nigel Owen is having a rotten year. Downsized from a cushy management job in London, he is forced to accept a temporary post as acting managing director of the Royal Tunbridge Wells Tea Museum. Alas, he regrets living in a small city in Kent, he prefers drinking coffee, and he roundly dislikes Flick Adams, PhD, an American scientist recently named the museum's curator. But then, the wildly unexpected happens. Dame Elspeth Hawker, the museum's chief benefactor, keels over during a meeting of the trustees-the apparent victim of a fatal heart attack. With the Dame's demise, the museum's famed collection is up for grabs and the two prima donnas find themselves facing professional ruin. Flick-who knows a thing or two about forensic science-is convinced that Dame Elspeth did not die a natural death. As Flick and Nigel follow the clues- including a cryptic phrase from the Bible-they discover that a crime perpetrated more than a century ago sowed the seeds for a contemporary murder.

Mystery

A Victorian murder mystery that's woven around a murder that really happened. Lord Charles Danvers, still in mourning for his lost love Charlotte, hopes to find escape from his ghosts at the country estate of his oldest friend Sir John Boileau. The events surrounding the coming of age of Sir John's son and heir have much of Norfolk astir-until the peace of an autumn evening is shattered by a brutal murder. The police are quick to point to a quarrelsome farmer, but Lord Danvers has his doubts. As the local magistrate, Sir John has an interest in the investigation. But is the real connection much closer to home? And does Danvers owe the greater loyalty to an old friend or to the truth? Then, Danvers is even more unsettled by the entrance of the alluring Lady Antonia Hoover. The first in the Lord Danvers Mysteries Series, A Most Inconvenient Death is a Victorian true-crime novel. The Stanfield Hall Murders were the sensation they are portrayed to be, the elaborate coming of age celebrations and the ensuing dramatic trial are all recorded history.

A Tincture of Murder

<p>The year is 1763. Eleven-year-old Nannerl Mozart is performing before the crowned heads of Europe with her younger brother, Wolfgang. But behind the glamour lurked dark difficulties-the hardship of travel, agonizing bouts of illness, and the constant concern over money. Their father, Leopold, is driven by a desire to bring his son's genius to the attention of the world. But what about Nannerl? Was she not just as talented? In a time where women's choices are limited, what hope did she have of ever realizing her own dreams? "For all the music or historical fiction lovers on your gift list, Nancy Moser's exquisite novel will whisk them away to 18th-century Vienna. Did you even know Mozart had a sister? Five years his senior, Nannerl was every bit as talented as her precocious and highly acclaimed brother. Yet because she was a woman, she was overlooked by society, as well as by her father. The book is told from Nannerl's point of view and reads like a piece of music, with sections entitled "Prelude," "Overture," "Interlude," and more. The author's beautiful writing and detailed research give readers an intimate peek into the eccentric personalities who inhabit the Mozart home. For those of us who do most of our traveling by armchair, Moser's dramatic tale is richly satisfying." - Christian Women Online Book Buzz</p>

Hard Winter at Broken Arrow Crossing

Bly, Stephen

Only Stuart Brannon can fight the tyrannical mayor of an isolated western town.  Stuart Brannon rides again—this time into the booming mining-supply town Paradise Meadow, and into conflict with Dixon Rutherford, its self-appointed mayor. Rutherford has tyrannized the entire town—jailing Brannon’s friend Peter Mulroney for a murder he did not commit, running down and killing Mulroney’s wife for standing up to him, and now trying to drive schoolteacher Rose Creek out of town.  Brannon engineers a daring jail break, and then he finds himself drawn into Rose Creek’s struggle with Rutherford’s men. By now some of the townspeople have had enough of Rutherford’s bullying. They join forces with Brannon for a dramatic showdown at the Gold Palace.  But finding courage to stand up to a corrupt politician is only a first step. Now the town faces another kind of struggle-can a violent, lawless collection of citizens avoid mob rule and choose to govern themselves in an orderly way?  Stuart Brannon has a struggle of his own. Rose Creek’s words have turned him inside out: “Look, everyone has to find what works for them. You like giving God credit. Well that’s fine, but as far as I can see, you’ve never needed Him for anything. You’re able to do whatever you want to do. You just play a little game and call if faith.” For a man who always tried to match his words with his actions, this is too much. But deep down he has to ask himself: What if she’s right?
