Book excerpt: It takes a guilty bastard to make a justified bitch. When a severed finger shows up on her doorstep in a seedy section of Las Vegas, Helen Taylor does not freak out. She’s already crazy, as evidenced by her junk-stuffed house and its ever-growing population of cats. There’s also Bobby, her long-dead husband. Helen talks to him regularly, and Bobby talks back. The finger and the brutal murder it reveals are more than a hoarding cat lady with a phantom husband can ignore. Helen’s a suspect, and she ends up in jail. Summoned by the detective on the case, Helen’s sister Pat arrives from Phoenix with two teen-age boys in tow. While Helen is AWOL from a mental facility, another gruesome murder is discovered. Pat, the boys, and the detective struggle to separate fact from insanity, but it takes power beyond the ordinary to bring the truth to light.
Download or read book Before Everything written by Victoria Redel and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2018-07-03 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A group of lifetime friends gather together to confront life, love, and now mortality “Everything you want a novel about life, death, and friendship to be—smart, moving, sweeping, poetic, stinging, just beautiful. I loved these women (and their men) and this elegy to their long-reaching bonds.” —Dani Shapiro, author of Hourglass: Time, Memory, Marriage Before Everything is a celebration of friendship and love between a group of women who have known each another since they were girls. They’ve faced everything together, from youthful sprees and scrapes to mid-life turning points. Now, as Anna, the group’s trailblazer and brightest spark, enters hospice, they gather to do what they’ve always done—talk and laugh and help each other make choices and plans, this time in Anna’s rural Massachusetts home. Helen, Anna’s best friend and a celebrated painter, is about to remarry. The others face their own challenges—Caroline with her sister’s mental health crisis; Molly with a teenage daughter’s rebellion; Ming with her law practice—dilemmas with kids and work and love. Before Everything is as funny as it is bittersweet, as the friends revel in the hilarious mistakes they’ve seen one another through, the secrets kept, and adventures shared. But now all sense of time has shifted, and the pattern of their lives together takes on new meaning. The novel offers a brilliant, emotionally charged portrait, deftly conveying the sweep of time over everyday lives, and showing how even in difficult endings, gifts can unfold. Above all it is an ode to friendship, and to how one person shapes the journeys of those around her.

Download or read book After September written by Andrew J. Salat and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2002-06 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a sequel to, When September Comes. A story based partially on life about a family who had for generations lost their women to a genetic flaw. Helen Coulson-Kovac had not only inherited the gene, but like her mother, would push into her subconscious the knowledge of dying young. Curiously, this feat enabled her to see humor in ordinary things as she tried to compress a lifetime of joy into few precious years. Motherless at seventeen, a coming of age experience with an out-of-town stranger completely devastated the deeply moral Helen. Morality however, had to be put aside when her lover vanished and she had to find another to play father to her unborn child. Helen found that there are times when a human flaw can become a gratuity from a Higher Source. Few however, can know which mistake might actually enrich our lives. If we did, we´d experiment with making them and have fun too. No matter how she tried, Helen could never forget her first love. Aside the diverse tangents that play a role in her remarkable life, how she goes about the task of separating fantasy from reality, is what this love story is about. Like most chronicles, this one encompasses the joy of growing up, the mysterious stirring of first love, and the inevitable heartache that touches most of us. How a valiant woman and the man she loves, confronts her predestined fate can make this an epic not easily forgotten.
