Book Description
Pedro and his brother Jose are safely living with a family who are giving them the love and security they were deprived of when their parents were brutally mowed down in a hit and-run-slaying. Pedro’s new found feeling of security unravels when he spots the man who murdered his parents in cold blood. His violent revenge fantasies come flooding back along with the addictions he thought he'd left in his past. A shocking twist of fate awaits Pedro and his friends as he returns to Miami to avenge his parent’s deaths.
Meet Alex Ferguson:
Compulsive skeptic. Devout believer. At odds with the group-think at her fundamentalist university. Preached at and taken advantage of. Agonizing over the recent death of her brother. Hurting for the larger world she lives in. Wrestling with the God she wants to love but maybe hates and definitely doesn't understand.
"An intriguing, multifaceted portrayal of Alex's spiritual journey."--Kirkus Reviews
New release. Literary novel. Religious fiction.
Book Description
Following the success of his latest novel, Travis Glasgow and his wife Jodie buy their first house in the seemingly idyllic western Maryland town of Westlake. At first, everything is picture perfect—from the beautiful lake behind the house to the rebirth of the friendship between Travis and his brother, Adam, who lives nearby. Travis also begins to overcome the darkness of his childhood and the guilt he’s harbored since his younger brother’s death—a tragic drowning veiled in mystery that has plagued Travis since he was 13. Soon, though, the new house begins to lose its allure. Strange noises wake Travis at night, and his dreams are plagued by ghosts. Barely glimpsed shapes flit through the darkened hallways, but strangest of all is the bizarre set of wooden stairs that rises cryptically out of the lake behind the house. Travis becomes drawn to the structure, but the more he investigates, the more he uncovers the house’s violent and tragic past, and the more he learns that some secrets cannot be buried forever.
