Third Time at Bat: A Memoir of Marriages (soft cover) by Leigh Davis

$14.95

If marriage is a pot of soup, it seemed we were stirring a lot into it ... or ladling out the bitter herbs. So when we traveled, it was like turning off the burner, putting a lid on it, and leaving the flavors to blend.

Actress and artist Leigh Davis lives a happy-and often humorous-life in the South with her loving husband. But her path wasn't always smooth. Husband number one was an abusive, drugging and drinking hippy with whom she shared nothing in common except for their love of his aunt (Leigh's surrogate mother), a cat, and their children whom she raised largely on her own.

Husband number two was small-town trial attorney and alcoholic ten years Leigh's junior with whom she shared a love of a Victorian mansion ... where she did all the work.

Lambda Factor by Dimple Patel Desai (Soft Cover)

$16.95

“When people are dying, it’s easier sometimes. You can be

all-powerful—even heroic. You don’t have to think about how much courage it takes to dwell among the living, to fight for your own life. Lots of caregivers get addicted that way.”

When a category five hurricane threatens a Galveston hospital, patients and nonessential personnel are required to evacuate.

Doctors Danica Diza and Shaka Sen, a chief family medicine resident and a surgical attending respectively, are tapped, along with a skeleton crew, to stay during the storm and care for remaining patients. Their facade of confidence is shattered, however, when the hospital’s inhabitants are exposed to a weaponized strain of a virus with a forty percent death rate. Forced into quarantine, they must struggle to survive the ravages of the hurricane, a shortage of supplies, and the virus that threatens them all.

Written by physician and debut author Dimple Desai, this striking medical thriller provokes readers to consider the dangerous trends happening in our world today and the global changes needed to abate them.

Next Voice You Hear by C.G. Spencer (HARD COVER)

$25.90

WHO IS IN CONTROL OF A DEMENTIA-SHATTERED MIND?

IS IT THE SOUL, THE BRAIN’S AUTOPILOT, OR SOMETHING ELSE?

A nuclear crisis and a good man’s life spiral out of control

as the ravages of dementia turn him into someone else.

Craig, the man in charge of a nuclear weapons facility, can

no longer manage the spiraling crisis or his personal life as

his employees and family react to the unrecognizable person

he’s become.

Told from the perspective of Craig’s departed soul recounting his life on Earth, Next Voice You Hear explores the issue of duality—or a person’s soul versus mind—and duality’s relationship to a Christian man’s drastic personality change during dementia.

Five years later, during the heart of World War II, Bastian’s American army platoon has landed in Salerno, Italy.

Exploring the true stories of Camp Siegfried, a Nazi-American summer camp in New York and the making of the film, La Porta del Cielo, which saved hundreds of lives, The Artist and the Soldier is intense, fast moving, and sheds light on largely untouched stories in American and Italian history.

The Last Resort (Novella) by Allie Coker

$11.95

My immediate thought, I don’t belong here, rebuffed before the half day’s end. Maybe I didn’t have multiple personalities or talk to myself or have mood swings so bad that no one could be around me, but the truth was plain. I needed to be here. I did belong here.

Welcome to The Last Resort—a sanitarium for residents who feel imprisoned in their own minds. Whether staff member or patient, everyone finds themselves at the center of a complex system that, at its best, provides therapeutic care and, at its worst, blurs and blends the boundaries of what constitutes sane and insane. Regardless of the role each individual has to play, all of them are here for a reason and will be forced to examine themselves from every angle.

Told from various perspectives, The Last Resort is a frighteningly real novella from Allie Coker that reveals the vulnerable side of humanity and forces readers to stop and ask, “What is normal?”
