Elizabeth Hayes
Elizabeth Hayes (1823-94) is a woman whose personal life and achievements are of significance in both British and North American religious, social and literary history. Born on the Island of Guernsey, the youngest child of an Anglican schoolmaster-clergyman, she embraced the Oxford Movement, the Wantage Anglican sisterhood, Catholicism and the Franciscan movement when a neo-monastic revival found enthusiasts in both the Catholic Church and in Anglicanism. Strongly committed to living a Franciscan way of life, as foundress, teacher, religious sister and journalist, Elizabeth's desire for mission in foreign places fired her with a courageous determination. Concerned for the poor, she had a bol...
I Am Pilgrim
In a seedy hotel near Ground Zero, a woman lies face down in a pool of acid, features melted of her face, teeth missing, fingerprints gone. The room has been sprayed down with DNA-eradicating antiseptic spray. Pilgrim, the code name for a legendary, world-class segret agent, quickly realizes that all of the murderer's techniques were pulled directly from his own book, a cult classic of forensic science written under a pen name.
A Mighty Force
In the last half of 1945, news of the war’s end and aftermath shared space with reports of a battle on the home front, led by a woman. She was Elizabeth O. Hayes, MD, doctor for a coal company that owned the town of Force, PA, where sewage contaminated the drinking waters, and ambulances sank into muddy unpaved roads while corrupt managers, ensconced in Manhattan high-rises, refused to make improvements.

Freedom's Ring
Owen has loved Temperance since they were children. Can they ever be more than friends? Temperance Hayes has had her life planned out practically from birth: she was to marry a rich man, preferably the governor’s son, and live out her life in comfort. After the governor’s son is killed, her plans seem to have lost all shape, until she finds help in the form of her childhood friend, Owen Randolph. Of course Owen Randolph agrees to help his old friend. He’s been in love with Temperance since he was five years old. But he also knows they live in different worlds, and she would never choose to live in his. As she spends more time with Owen, Temperance is reminded how good his heart is, and she begins to wonder if that could be enough to give her the security she craves. When Owen signs up to fight in a war that hasn’t even begun, Temperance will have to decide where her heart and her loyalties lie.
