Summary:

Hit man Peter Macklin battles divorce attorneys, mobsters, and hired assassins in this action-packed, hard-boiled thriller

For years, Donna ignored the guns in her husband's safe, his long hours, and all the cash he couldn't possibly have made as an 'efficiency expert.' But finally she was forced to admit that Peter Macklin is a killer for hire. Donna wants a divorce, and she wants to take her husband for all he's worth. But she won't get a penny if he's dead.

Macklin, who recently cut ties with the mob, is leaving his divorce attorney's office when he's attacked. Quick thinking saves his life, but the Detroit mob has turned on him, and they'll keep sending assassins until Macklin is put in the ground. He'll have to kill like never before-or this hit man won't live to make his first alimony payment.

This riveting thriller from four-time Shamus Award-winning author Loren D. Estleman features one of the most redoubtable antiheroes in hard-boiled crime fiction.

Title: Reclaiming Rural: Building Thriving Rural Congregations

Author: Allen Stanton

Narrator: Frank Block

Format: Unabridged

Length: 06:14:04

Language: English

Release date: 09-12-23

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity

Summary:

As rural America continues to undergo massive economic and demographic shifts, rural churches are uniquely positioned to provide community leadership. Leading a rural congregation requires a deeper understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing these communities, as well as a strong theological and community-focused identity. Allen T. Stanton describes how in establishing this identity, rural leaders build a meaningful and vital ministry.

Reclaiming Rural explores the myths and realities of rural places, and how those common narratives impact the leadership of rural churches. Ultimately, rural congregations must practice a contextual understanding of vitality, which understands both the strengths and challenges of leading in a rural setting.

Arguing for a practice of evangelism imbued with this mission of vitality, Reclaiming Rural promotes the church as a leader in economic and community development, modeled upon a Wesleyan theology of grace. Acknowledging the many challenges facing rural churches, this book is an energetic and encouraging guide to overcoming social and economic obstacles to build a thriving congregation.

Summary:

Valentine

I'd been working nearly a year in my position when I'd been unceremoniously bumped up to the secretary for the boss upstairs. Unfortunately, I had two problems with that; his employees were notorious for dropping like flies, quitting, or getting fired. I didn't want either. Second, he set off emotions I thought were only in books. My heart couldn't handle being around the man, and now I was forced to be in his presence every day.

Wyatt

A gift and a torment. Valentine was the perfect person to replace my last office assistant, but I didn't know if I could tolerate being around her safely. She unlocked something I've kept hidden away for my entire existence. Since I lost my parents, I hadn't let a soul into my life, but Valentine might have broken down that barrier. It was just a shame she was my employee now.

Summary:

During the height of the Cold War, a group of small-town young men would lead their underdog hockey team from the little country of Czechoslovakia against the Soviet Union, the juggernaut in their sport. As they battled on the ice, the young players would keep their people's quest for freedom alive, and forge a way to fight back against the authoritarian forces that sought to crush them.

From the sudden invasion of Czechoslovakia by an armada of tanks and 500,000 Warsaw Pact soldiers, to a hockey victory over the Soviets that inspired half a million furious citizens to take to the streets in an attempt to destroy all representations that they could find of their occupiers, Freedom to Win tells a story that ranges from iconic moments in history to courageous individual stories. And we will cheer as the team takes on its nemesis one last time with the Olympic gold medal at stake.

At the heart of Freedom to Win is the story of the Holiks, a Czechoslovak family whose resistance to the Communists embodied the deepest desires of the people of their country. Faced with life under the cruel and arbitrary regime that had stolen their family butcher shop, the Holik boys became national hockey icons and inspirations to their people.

Crescent Cove, a small hamlet on Vancouver Island, is the last place out-of-work investigative journalist Luke Tremblay ever wanted to see again. He used to spend summers here, until his family learned that he was gay and rejected him. Now, following his aunt's sudden death, he's inherited her entire estate, including her seaside cottage and the antiques shop she ran for forty years in Crescent Cove. Luke plans to sell everything and head back to Toronto as soon as he can . . . but Crescent Cove isn't done with him just yet.

When a stranger starts making wild claims about Luke's aunt, Luke sends him packing. The next morning, though, Luke discovers that the stranger has returned, and now he's lying dead in the back garden. To make matters worse, the officer leading the investigation is a handsome Mountie with a chip on his shoulder who seems convinced that Luke is the culprit. If he wants to prove his innocence and leave this town once and for all, Luke will have to use all his skills as a journalist to investigate the colorful locals while coming to terms with his own painful past.

There are secrets buried in Crescent Cove, and the more Luke digs, the more he fears they might change the town forever.
