A Greenwich Village PI and her pit bull hunt down killers in these three smart, witty mysteries from a Shamus Award winner. In This Dog for Hire, the debut of New York private detective Rachel Alexander and her pit bull, Dash—short for Dashiell—a hit-and-run leaves a local painter dead and his show dog, a basenji, temporarily missing. After cracking that case, Rachel and Dash return in The Dog Who Knew Too Much to investigate a t’ai chi teacher’s fatal leap from a window. Rachel suspects there’s more involved, as the woman would never have left her beloved Akita behind. Rounding out the collection is A Hell of a Dog, in which Rachel, a former dog trainer herself, must find out who’s killing off trainers at a professional gathering at a posh New York City hotel. With comparisons to the mysteries of Laurien Berenson and Susan Conant, these novels—with “excellent” writing and a “nice touch of humor”—are an involving, atmospheric read for fans of strong female PIs, especially those with furry sidekicks (Library Journal).

Dream House takes its readers on a room-to-room tour beginning in the kitchen and finishing in the garage. Each room gives a description of the problem or need this room represents, followed by a solution based upon biblical principles. Some of the issues we deal with are: character development, purpose in parenting, honor becoming a habit, the family calendar, vital information our children need, discipline, etc. At the end of each chapter, there are questions for individuals or small groups to answer and discuss. Many parents begin raising their children without the necessary blueprints or tools to build a healthy and happy home. As a result, their home is unstable and unhealthy, resulting in frustration and despair. The purpose of this book is to provide blueprints of biblical truths and practical insights that will help parents construct a Dream House of their own. Those who read Dream House, will: *Understand the importance of modeling character, godly passion, and a healthy marriage to their children. *Be able to pass on biblical principals that will position their children to succeed in life. *Learn effective ways to communicate love, acceptance, and hope to their children, with practical examples that are parent friendly. Dream House will also describe what a healthy home looks like, provide specific principles that will enable parents to succeed, as well as encourage parents through the building process of their Dream House.

This book is about the life of a blind athlete. The intent of this book is to educate the sighted world regarding situations as they relate not only to blind people, but also to all society. In many cases, the blind must be overly aggressive and take the risk of being judged as pushy. Even then, they still get very few opportunities. As it stands, 70%% of blind adults in this country are unemployed. Hopefully, this book will do something to change that situation.
