The Reckoning of Boston Jim

The colony of British Columbia, 1863. 'Boston' Jim Milroy, a lone trapper and trader with an eidetic memory and a tragic unreckoned past, has become obsessed with reciprocating a seemingly minor kindness from the loquacious Dora Hume, a settler in the Cowichan Valley of Vancouver Island. Dora's kindness and her life story both haunt Boston Jim, and his precise recollections inspire his attempts to buy something suitable for her in return. Eventually his search leads him to the gold rush town of Barkerville on the trail of Dora's capricious husband Eugene-the one thing, after all, that she really wants.

The Darktells the epic story of the Fox sisters--Maggie, Katie, and Leah--who became the unintentional originators of Spiritualism when, in 1848, Maggie and Katie communicated through knockings with the ghost of a murdered peddler. In its heyday, Spiritualism claimed millions of converts. It brought the Fox sisters and their family great riches and grand loves; devoted supporters and determined enemies; and at the last, betrayals, ruin, and redemption. The Darkis a book haunted not so much by ghosts as by human mysteries and human dilemmas: how we believe and why; whether deception that gives succor is wrong; the nature of inspiration, love, and hope; how prejudice can be manipulated to adva...

DREAMS THAT COME TRUE TELEPATHY, ESP, VISIONS, PREMONITIONS NEAR-DEATH AND OUT-OF-BODY EXPERIENCES Most of us have heard stories of these unusual phenomena, as told by millions of people throughout history and across cultures. Or perhaps we have experienced them ourselves, and we are still grappling with their validity in a world of empirical science and psychiatry that deems anything unseen or spiritual as impossible, weird, or even disturbed. The stigma surrounding the paranormal prevents us from exploring the possibility that there are, perhaps, events that occur outside the realm of human comprehension, inoculating us against the lessons and spiritual significance these events might hold...

“Suddenly angelic beings of light appeared. They said I was at a crossroad, and it was here where I had to make a choice . . .” In 2022, forty-two-year-old Dr. Stormy Hera, a music professor at the University of Victoria, is serving a manslaughter sentence at Sunnydale Forensic Hospital in British Columbia.

In the hopes of jogging her memory and healing her soul, Stormy is tasked with writing her autobiography as part of her rehabilitation. Spanning the 1940s to 2026, and set in the Saskatchewan prairies, Olympia, Greece, and Canada’s West Coast, For Love and Mercy follows the lives of free-spirited Evangeline, and Stormy herself—including a near-death experience that changes everything. For Love and Mercy is a heartfelt story of love and loss, courage and forgiveness.

Sixteen-year-old Jerusha Shurtleff and her 18-year-old sister, Orrillia, live with their family on a prosperous farm. Unfortunately, their home is located on a contested strip of land between the Vermont border and "British North America." Like the Shurtleffs, most of the American residents are confident that the boundary dispute will be resolved in the United States' favor. Imagine their shock and dismay when they learn in 1834 that the land has been ceded to Great Britain. All residents must either show official ownership of their properties or repurchase them from the British crown. Jerusha 's family can do neither, so they are evicted from the only home they have ever known. Jerusha and Orrillia face many challenges: they are separated from their family and forced to work in a textile mill where their faith and courage are tested by long hours and perilous conditions. Worse, they do not hear from their father for over a year and presume him dead. Join Jerusha and Orrillia as they embark on their brave quest to reunite with their family, a trek that takes them across America at the dawn of its Industrial Age.
