Well done Ms. Boardman! Patricia's story is neatly woven until when looked at more closely loose threads begin to appear. Miki Lewis is a project manager of Main Street Alive!, a company dedicated to revitalizing dying towns. She is given her dream assignment to create a history museum in her grandmother's hometown Elkton, Iowa. But as she discovered pieces of the towns history she also discovers secrets; long buried secrets that her mother and grandmother intended to stay hidden forever.

Sharon Cameron’s historical fiction books are equal parts thriller and history. Her most recent, Artifice, takes place in Nazi-occupied Amsterdam, where high-ranking Nazis are buying up Vermeers and other Old Masters with a vengeance—not realizing that some of the works they’re acquiring are forgeries.  Such an inspirational book and based on the true stories of Han Van Meegeren, a master art forger who sold fakes to Hermann Goering and Johann van Hulst. He is credited with saving 600 Jewish children from death in Amsterdam. ARTIFICE author Sharon Cameron weaves a gorgeously evocative thriller simmering with twists that look for the forgotten color of beauty even in an ugly world.

America's Test Kitchen Equipment Reviewer and Author of KITCHEN GEAR: THE ULTIMATE OWNERS MANUAL Boost Your Equipment with 500+ Expert Tips, Optimize Your Kitchen with 400+ Recommended Tools talks how do I make yummy crispy roasted veggies without a stove? What is the BEST pan, really?  When it comes to successful, enjoyable home cooking, starting with the right kitchen equipment is every bit as important as following a good recipe.  Think about all the ways that your equipment can make or break your experience in the kitchen. A skillet that heats unevenly might leave you with nothing to show for your efforts but a scorched mess. An ice cream maker that turns out soupy frozen desserts might have you swearing off home-made ice cream forever. On the other hand, tools that work as they’re intended make your life easier and your time in the kitchen more rewarding. A sharp vegetable peeler breezes through tough squash skin; a good coffee maker extracts the perfect balance of flavors from coffee beans; an absorbent dish towel makes cleaning up after yourself just that much less tedious.  America’s Test Kitchen’s Kitchen Gear book is a manual for your entire kitchen. ATK’s kitchen equipment experts Lisa McManus and Hannah Crowley, (hosts of ATK’s popular Gear Heads YouTube show), share everything they’ve learned during their decades of hands-on equipment testing, from buying dos and don’ts to maintenance and cleaning tips to stories from their own experiences.

David Baldacci is a #1 global Best Selling Author. He is one of the most clever and interesting people I've interviewed, an author's author. So many valuable nuggets of wisdom for the aspiring writer. Synopsis of THE EDGE: The 6:20 Man is back, dropped by his handlers into a small coastal town in Maine to solve the murder of a CIA agent who knew America’s dirtiest secrets—can Travis Devine uncover the truth before his time runs out?  When CIA operative Jenny Silkwell is murdered in rural Maine, government officials have immediate concerns over national security. Her laptop and phone were full of state secrets that, in the wrong hands, endanger the lives of countless operatives. In need of someone who can solve the murder quickly and retrieve the missing information, the U.S. government knows just the chameleon they can call on.  Ex-Army Ranger Travis Devine spent his time in the military preparing to take on any scenario, followed by his short-lived business career chasing shadows in the deepest halls of power, so his analytical mind makes him particularly well-suited for complex, high-stakes tasks. Taking down the world’s largest financial conspiracy proved his value, and in comparison, this case looks straightforward. Except small towns hold secrets and Devine finds himself an outsider again. Devine must ingratiate himself with locals who have trusted each other their whole lives, and who distrust outsiders just as much. Dak, Jenny’s brother, who’s working to revitalize the town. Earl, the retired lobsterman who found Jenny’s body. And Alex, Jenny’s sister with a dark past of her own. As Devine gets to know the residents of Putnam, Maine, answers seem to appear and then transform into more questions. There’s a long history of secrets and those who will stop at nothing to keep them from being exposed. Leaving Devine with no idea who he can trust… and who wants him dead.

In GRAVE DANGER, written for ages 8-12, after a major spell gone wrong, Wick, (our underwhelming antihero, also known as Azrael Bal Gorath the Wicked, Keeper of the Fountains of Flame, Breaker of Worlds, Son of the Dark Lord Who Vanished and Heir to the Throne of Black and Broken Glass) finds himself kicked out of his own castle and shipped off as an exchange student. As if Middle Ages School wasn't hard enough already! Follow Wick through the pages of his journal as he comes up with a genius plan to defeat his foes, achieve greatness . . . and maybe even make a new friend in the process. When you’re the heir to Dark Lord, trying to live up to your great and terrible destiny, life can be tough. Especially when you’re twelve, kind of short, plagued by allergies, and can’t even cast a simple Fart Revealer spell because frankly, you’re pretty mediocre with the whole magic thing. Mostly, he’s just trying to survive Middle Ages school without embarrassing himself too much—no small task.
