Book Description
Childhood friends reunite years after a shattering tragedy in this “compelling page-turner” by the New York Times–bestselling author (Kirkus Reviews, starred review). When Andrew was about to leave his small upstate New York town for college, tragedy struck the beautiful girl next door, Eden Close. An adopted child, Eden had learned to avoid the mother who did not want her and to please the father who did. She also aimed to please Andrew and his friends, first by being one of the boys and later by seducing them. Then one hot night, Andrew was awakened by gunshots and piercing screams from the next farm: Mr. Close had been killed and Eden blinded. Now, seventeen years later, Andrew returns to his upstate New York hometown to attend his mother’s funeral, and begins to uncover the grisly story––to unravel the layers of thwarted love between the husband, wife, and tormented girl. And as the truth about Eden’s past comes to light, so too does Andrew’s strange and binding attachment to her . . . “Eden’s story has the heightened emotions, the dark, brooding atmosphere of a Southern gothic novel . . . Shreve demonstrates her ability to create highly vivid, sympathetic people.” —The New York Times “Beautifully rendered scenes.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) “Shreve simply has the Gift—the ability to hook you from the first page and not let go until the final word.” —The Washington Post Book World

But the biggest change comes when Jez and Jay turn eleven— and their uncle, Doc, tells them he’s going to train them in rootwork. Jez and Jay have always been fascinated by the African American folk magic that has been the legacy of their family for generations—especially the curious potions and powders Doc and Gran would make for the people on their island.

Book Description
A military Sci-Fi political thriller set a short decade from now. In 2031, holding to the concept of Individual Liberty can get you killed. Western Civilization is in collapse, a process led and driven by the world's leading supposed democracies, our own included. What was once the western world's guiding light of Liberty is quickly being replaced by state sponsored serfdom under the guise of a global economic re-set done in the name 'the workers.' The people of The Program have seen the unfettered growth of government power coming for decades and they've worked in secret since the 1950's on engineering their way around and through the multiverse established by Quantum theory. They aren't perfect and they've lost the political fight to the left's government power and to the right's corporate statism. The world's people have been force fed a political chasm between left and right for so long they don't recognize that the governments themselves drive this supposed battle while ensnaring everyone. Those that see the truth, people from nearly every country on the planet, have banded together in secret knowing they can't win. Not on this world. They're leaving... ... but new destinations rarely mirror the guide book. The thing about a new empty world is that they may not be the only ones willing to fight for it. A debut novel, the first in a series from a former CIA operations officer who has decided that his lifelong writing habit/hobby/obsession is more fun than "real" work. "Finally an author that doesn't pull punches..." - Amazon reviewer"It's 4 am, and I'm not going to work - just finished one of the best books I've read in years..." - Amazon reviewer
