Ripper
On dark, dismal nights, women's screams echo in the distance. A serial killer prowls the streets, calling him Jack the Ripper; his victims' names are eerily the same as those the Ripper slaughtered a century before. But Michael Draven has become the only suspect. Now he and his friends must discover the identity of the man who is butchering the women of their city to save the innocent and clear his name. But Draven's discovery of a dark family secret is almost more than he can handle. Pushed beyond his breaking point, Michael turns to alcohol and spirals into depression while voices from the past try to guide him towards the answers he needs. Can Michael and his friends identify the killer in time, or will Draven learn the answer isn't one he wants to know...

The Trappers Promise
Bronwyn Trotter's "The Trappers Promise" is a hard hitting Novel set in the wilds of the Rockies: where only the toughest of women can surive. ‘Born on a mountain in the Rockies where wolves are hunted for their valuable skins, Sarah Cole has to contend with trapping wolves and nineteen trappers. Four of whom have made a promise to her father to look out for her if he should be killed. When her father dies during a card game, she loses her winter home Mountain View Lodge and is thrust into the care of the trappers. Finding that men are now looking at her more as a woman than a trapper, Sarah finds battling vicious wolves is far easier than dealing with them and a wealthy rancher Major Hardy trying to stop her from becoming friendly with his son Frank. Major Hardy’s idea of a wife for Frank is Millicent Crawley, daughter of the general store owner. Sarah will do what she has to, even if it means using the wolves to get her son, stolen from her by his grandfather, back to her.’
Buddies
Thirteen-year-old Joey Frank and Ernie are dirt-poor farmers' sons in rural Georgia in the early 1900's, but they each have something money can't buy: A best buddy. Ernie is eight days older, so he takes the lead when they decide where to go fishing, and what to do when they go to town, and when to skip a day from their one-room schoolhouse. On that day, they watch the town banker and his wife bury something in the woods. Ernie goads Joey Frank into questioning the banker about this strange episode, and Ernie has to take the lead once again to get them out of the terrible scrape, which ensues. But Joey Frank is strong willed too, and when Ernie's luck runs out, Joey Frank determines one thing: that no matter what he has to do to take care of Ernie, Ernie's buddy wont let him down.
The Long Game
During the autumn of 1765 in London, Joshua Jones, a young working man of colour and aspiring artist, is grafting hard at his studies while earning his keep as a waiter in an exclusive St. James’ gambling club managed by his uncle. The only cloud on Joshua’s horizon is the progress of his love affair with Frank Bartlett, an older man and unofficial diplomat who met and seduced Joshua the year before. After an idyllic summer in Italy together, reality bites when they return to London, and Frank plunges into dealing with the disastrous political fallout from the proposed Stamp Act. Joshua understands his lover’s preoccupation but worries he is being pushed aside as Frank becomes so involved in diplomatic wrangling that he risks injuring his health. During tough times, Joshua is determined to stick with Frank. But will Frank take notice? And how can Joshua convince his true love that he is there for the long haul?
