Hot
Apple Cider: Words
to Warm the Soul and Stir the Heart
"Inventive
and filled with grace, Hot Apple Cider is just what its name
implies: an open door, a warm invitation, a friend when needed and least
expected, a gentle calling toward a generous life. From the shores of
Australia and a woman's grief, to Romania and a choice we all must make,
to the town of Stuckville anywhere in the world and a dozen other settings,
in prose and poetry and non-fiction, these stories remind us that God
draws us together and speaks to us uniquely and in community. If you're
looking for inspiration, something to breathe in for reassurance that
you're not alone, something to remind you to hear God's voice in acts
of compassion, spend an afternoon with Hot Apple Cider. It
could just change your life."

Glitter
of Diamonds: A Manziuk and Ryan Mystery
"It
is baseball season in Toronto, and Cuban pitcher Rico Velasquez's high
life takes a plunge when his wife arrives unexpectedly. Rico's tantrums
have stirred bad blood among his teammates, alienated his fans, and
prompted speculation from the sports media. Yet when he is killed with
a baseball bat in the bull pen at the Diamond Dome, home of the Toronto
Matrix, suspects are few because, as Inspector Manziuk and Detective
Constable Ryan note, most baseball players act like "prima donnas.
In her second mystery after Shaded Light, Lindquist, a master of plotting,
seeds her tale with concealed clues and innuendos that keep readers
guessing until the very end. Reminiscent of golden age mysteries, her
latest will appeal to fans of classic mysteries."
