Dancing with God
Dancing with God is a book about the dance we call life. Based on her original research study of Spiritual Life in mainstream, interfaith congregations, Dr. McKay takes us on a journey to discover God available everywhere for all people. She helps us find God in our lives by sharing stories from her own life and from some of the four thousand others in her study. Dr. McKay describes God as Mystery and Presence, reminding us that Gods other name is always surprise! She challenges us to follow a God directed pathway; to trust that Love does not abandon us and to know that Spirit linked to Spirit will change the world. Dancing with God is like a digital book, each chapter containing a unique God experience which you can revisit in whatever order you choose and is a powerful way to share God experiences in a group setting.
When Demons Float
Kristin Ginelli, Chicago-cop-turned-religion-professor, is horrified when her new Muslim faculty colleague is targeted with a hate crime by self-styled white supremacists. She investigates, wading into the disgusting waters of white supremacist hate online. She is stunned to learn how young people and adults are being tempted into hate and violence on the Internet. As she teaches her religion classes, she comes to realize this is what philosophers and theologians have meant by the demonic. In this kind of extremism, hate rises to the surface and it is hard to keep it down. When a student is killed, and Kristin is threatened, she has to cut through the university's stalling and what looks increasingly like corruption in the Chicago police and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to find the killers and try to stem the tide of hate.
Every Wickedness
Every Wickedness describes the efforts of Kristin Ginelli, an untenured professor at a Chicago university, to discover why a young woman died from a fall on a hospital construction site. Professor Ginelli is a former Chicago cop and she suspects that the woman's death was not an accident. Her refusal to quit looking into the woman's death makes a lot of people angry, including the murderer. The more academic administrators and police officials try to get her to stop investigating, the more Kristin is determined to expose the interlocking forces of wickedness in our society that can conspire to lure young people into danger and that can sometimes even get them killed. The purveyors of wickedness are very dangerous, and they will threaten those who try to expose them, including Kristin.
Malice
Malice is an historical mystery novel set in a few momentous weeks in the spring of 1961. As the Kennedy administration is barely underway, congressional aide Alexandra Bell works to stop a CIA catastrophe in the making, the botched invasion of Cuba. Meanwhile, her roommate, Gwen Gray, joins the Freedom Rides, the bold civil rights initiative that challenged southern segregationists on their own home territory. The language of freedom is everywhere in the beginning of the 1960s, but both Alex and Gwen soon realize it is often hypocritical and the real agenda is violence and suppression. These two young women will not surrender their hopes for a more just America, but they are up against enormous forces that threaten to crush each of them without hesitation. The events of those weeks and the outcomes defined the opposing American approaches to power for well into the twenty-first century. Indeed, the events of those weeks set in motion the forces that are today tearing the fabric of American democracy apart.
Letters from Black America
The first-ever narrative history of African Americans told through their own letters Letters from Black America fills a literary and historical void by presenting the spectrum of African American experience in the most intimate way possible—through the heartfelt correspondence of those who lived through monumental changes and pivotal events, from the American Revolution to the war in Iraq, from slavery to the election of Obama.

What She Will Become
As the turbulent Kennedy administration begins, Alexandra Zsófia Bel, a congressional staffer with a suspicious past, investigates the murder of a State Department lawyer despite risks to her own life. Alex has changed her last name to Bell, her hair color to blond, and her life story to middle-class American to get a job in government. She had hoped to keep her personal history a secret in her new life in Washington, but she risks exposure to catch a murderer before J. Edgar Hoover’s FBI catches her first. Alex finds the corruption in the nation’s capital stinks like the sewage-laden Potomac River. She, along with her little dog Miss Bea, a cynical beagle and Jack Russell mix, follow the scent, and she also has to use new Washington contacts as well as her family’s connections to find the killer and reveal a conspiracy. This novel is the first of a planned series featuring Alex Bell that will be set in the volatile decade of the 1960s.
