Girl Taken
When her sister’s friend is found dead, Detective Kaitlyn Carr knows that time is running out. Her sister has been missing for weeks and everyone is starting to believe that she’s gone for good. But Kaitlyn refuses to give up. While the FBI and the Sheriff’s investigators collect evidence and run tests, Kaitlyn stays busy with another case back in Los Angeles: the disappearance of a missing couple who were trying to sell their half a million dollar boat. Their grown sons insist that their parents would have never left without an explanation, but it’s up to Kaitlyn to uncover the truth. Is the missing couple keeping secrets of their own or is their life actually in danger? Who killed her sister’s friend and will finding her killer lead to answers about Violet’s disappearance? Girl Taken is a suspenseful thriller perfect for fans of James Patterson, Leslie Wolfe, Lisa Regan, L. T. Vargus and Karin Slaughter. It has mystery, angst, a bit of romance and family drama.
Our Times, Our Lives
Eve Otto explains, "When I began writing this book, I had in the back of my mind that those who are young now might someday be interested in what life was like when their grandparents were growing up -- how life changed drastically with the coming of World War II in Europe and the turbulent years that followed... the traumas of our emigration to America with our three young children and the difficult adjustments we had to make. My book, then, is sort of a legacy to them."
A Good Day
This moving gift book truly stirs gratitude for the blessing of life and the everyday wonder and beauty of nature. It was inspired by the short film Gratitude, a viral video sensation by acclaimed filmmaker Louie Schwartzberg recently featured on Oprahs Super Soul Sunday. The book and film pair one of todays most uplifting poems—the Internet phenomenon “A Good Day,” written by revered spiritual leader Brother David Steindl-Rast—with stunning images by Schwartzberg. Perfect for graduations, birthdays, anniversaries, and holidays—or just as a gift for someone you love—this inspirational package includes not just the book but a DVD with two short films by Schwartzberg (including Gratitude) and Brother Davids own A Good Day video. The last page has a link to the “A Good Day” audio track, which you can use to create your own video or slide show on what you are grateful for.

The author melds her experiences growing up in small town America with the extraordinary mentors who touch her life with their wisdom, knowledge, love & light. Written with the simplicity of love intertwined throughout its pages, she shares from her heart how she has been taught to walk with Spirit in a peaceful, positive way. The realization of preciousness of life & how connected we all are is of paramount importance. The author was propelled to write this book through the uncanny experience of having her pen take off on its own mission when she had intended to write a letter to a friend. Response from readers has been overwhelmingly positive, from "Thank you this book has changed my life in a positive way" to "...this book has caused me to deeply contemplate my life in a way I never had before & that to me is a sign of a wonderful book."
