Robert Dugoni 's novel, My Sister’s Grave,, is a best seller. Tracy Crosswhite has put in twenty years addressing the certainties encompassing her sister Sarah's vanishing and the homicide trial that emulated. She doesn't accept that Edmund House—an indicted attacker and the man censured for Sarah's homicide is the blameworthy party. Propelled by the chance to get genuine equity, Tracy turned into a crime investigator with the Seattle PD and devoted her life to finding executioners. At the point when Sarah's remaining parts are at long last found close to the place where they grew up in the northern Cascade heaps of Washington State, Tracy is dead set to get the answers she's been looking for. As she looks for the true executioner, she uncovers dull, long-kept insider facts that will everlastingly transform her relationship to her past—and open the avenue to danger. I wrote a personal short story about being dead to the world. It is a modernized parable of the parable of the sacrificial seed that dies. It is from John 12:24-25. A bonus story follows with a warning that no one knows the day nor the hour. Matthew Prokop throws some lowlifes in jail because Bill Simmons tricked them to do Matthew Prokop dirty. In the end, Bill Simmons gets thrown in jail as well. This is referencing Mark 13:32-37.

War Brides is a national bestseller. With war threatening to spread from Europe to England, the sleepy village of Crowmarsh Priors settles into a new sort of normal: Evacuees from London are billeted in local homes. Nightly air raids become grimly mundane. The tightening vice of rationing curtails every comfort. Men leave to fight and die. And five women forge an unlikely bond of friendship that will change their lives forever. Alice Osbourne, the stolid daughter of the late vicar, is reeling from the news that Richard Fairfax broke their engagement to marry Evangeline Fontaine, an American girl from the Deep South. Evangeline’s arrival causes a stir in the village—but not the chaos that would ensue if they knew her motives for being there. Scrappy Elsie Pigeon is among the poor of London who see the evacuations as a chance to escape a life of destitution. Another new arrival is Tanni Zayman, a young Jewish girl who fled the horrors of Europe and now waits with her newborn son, certain that the rest of her family is safe and bound to show up any day. And then there’s Frances Falconleigh, a madcap, fearless debutante whose father is determined to keep her in the countryside and out of the papers. As the war and its relentless hardships intensify around them, the same struggles that threaten to rip apart their lives also bring the five closer together. They draw strength from one another to defeat formidable enemies—hunger, falling bombs, the looming threat of a Nazi invasion, and a traitor in their midst—and find remarkable strength within themselves to help their friends. Theirs is a war-forged loyalty that will outlast the fiercest battle and endure years and distance. When four of the women return to Crowmarsh Priors for a VE Day celebration fifty years later, television cameras focus on the heartwarming story of these old women as war brides of a bygone age, but miss the more newsworthy angle. The women’s mission is not to commemorate or remember—they’ve returned to settle a score and avenge one of their own. I wrote a short story about two girls as well. This is about teaching teenagers to wait your turn to grow up. Preemies rush into trouble, but good parents wait for them to grow up. This is a modernized anecdote of the parable of the prodigal son from Luke 15: 11-32. There is also a bonus story teaching how to wait and decipher things later. All things will work out in the end. This is a modernized anecdote of the parable of the sower from Matthew 13:24-30.
