Set in the 25th Century, during an Interstellar supply run, the crew members onboard the Confederation Space Freighter "Alphonse" are systematically killed off. The ship seems to have crashed on a Terrestrial Alien planet-or did it? These and other strange and unexplained events occupy Space Marine Officer Daphne C. Lee and Confederation Social Servant Franklin C. Royster as they set out to solve the mystery revealed in the digital flight logs of the "Alphonse." Will the duo find the answers that will shed light on its mission? String of Pearls: The Survival Journal of the CSF Alphonse will engage the reader in this riveting quest.

Sex and the Citizen
Sex and the Citizen is a multidisciplinary collection of essays that draws on current anxieties about "legitimate" sexual identities and practices across the Caribbean to explore both the impact of globalization and the legacy of the region's history of sexual exploitation during colonialism, slavery, and indentureship. Speaking from within but also challenging the assumptions of feminism, literary and cultural studies, and queer studies, this volume questions prevailing oppositions between the backward, homophobic nation-state and the laid-back, service-with-a-smile paradise or between giving in ignominiously to the autocratic demands of the global north and equating postcolonial sovereignt...
A Man's Heart
Jules broke off her wedding to Cruz practically at the altar. Not just once, but twice. Now the man Jules loves best can't stand the sight of her. Only for Pop could Jules have made such a sacrifice. And now Pop is gone, leaving Jules with his struggling Washington State potato farm; with a sister excluded from his will; and with a heart wounded by the sacrifice she has made on behalf of her father. It looks like strengthening her relationship with her sister and improving the prospects of the Blue Bayou farm will be Jules' chief concerns. But when cancer takes the life of her best friend, Jules finds herself caring for her friend's two small children as well as the Blue Bayou. A drought-stricken farm. A promise to a dead friend and two needy little lives. And disturbing memories stirring up a growing relationship with her sister. How can one woman handle it all? The answer lies with a God who holds the keys to yesterday, today, and tomorrow and to the heart of the one man whom Jules could ever love.
The Search for the Tyler Y. Alphonse From the Investigative Files of Benoit Carter
In the late twenty-fifth century, a long-dormant mystery resurfaces involving the disappearance in deep space of a Pulvermacher-class supply freighter. Handed what appears to be another mundane “research and report” commission, Junior Agent Benoit Carter is about to have his well-ordered life profoundly change. Carter’s initial search shows that his investigative section has been infiltrated by clandestine alien moles. Then a retired Confederation senior agent is murdered, an entire Del Mar subdivision is destroyed, and Carter is gravely injured in an assassination attempt. After recuperating, Carter and his supervisor, Debra T. Stanton, follow a string of seemingly unconnected clues, ...
Pharr
The All-America City of Pharr was incorporated in 1916 and holds precedence as the heart of the Rio Grande Valley. The late Henry Newton Pharr, a sugarcane grower, engineer, and manufacturer, along with his partner John C. Kelly, founded the city for their interest in establishing a sugarcane empire. This borderland is located approximately eight miles from the mighty Rio Grande, and it prospered to become the ideal agricultural grounds that attracted star investors from as far as Louisiana. Pharr benefitted from the fruit and vegetable boom, the introduction of the railroad, great feats in civic progress, and success in international commerce. Now, Pharr is the only city in the state of Texas to be designated as a "Triple Crown City." Pharr's feats include the Preserve America City, National Main Street City, and All-America City awards.
