Download or read book The Wooden Trunk written by Renée M. Martel and published by Austin Macauley Publishers. This book was released on 2022-03-31 with total page 799 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life and death are two sides of the same coin. The past is a tricky thing. Sometimes it’s etched on our minds. Other times it blurs our memories. If you stand too long on the dark side of a grave, who knows which ancestors you will awaken. The Wooden Trunk: Book One of the Linked Trilogy introduces Ruby McEwen, an intuitive eighty-eight-year-old human gateway to the past, and Jazz Durant, a turbulent eighteen-year-old with a grim future. Unpredictably, the two women, born decades apart, embark upon a historical, intertwining journey that has them navigating across four countries and through three centuries occupied by wounded minds and searching souls. The Wooden Trunk is more than a saga about time travel. It is an ambitious novel that reunites lost generations, casts a light upon the unknown and rediscovers the forgotten. With each step she takes, alongside Ruby and their witty, stubborn and wise ancestors, Jazz learns about humanity, courage, integrity, survival and life. A life linked to theirs and one not so unlike her own.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leon Leyson (born Leib Lezjon) was only ten years old when the Nazis invaded Poland and his family was forced to relocate to the Krakow ghetto. With incredible luck, perseverance and grit, Leyson was able to survive the sadism of the Nazis, including that of the demonic Amon Goeth, commandant of Plaszow, the concentration camp outside Krakow. Ultimately, it was the generosity and cunning of one man, a man named Oskar Schindler, who saved Leon Leyson's life, and the lives of his mother, his father, and two of his four siblings, by adding their names to his list of workers in his factory - a list that became world renowned: Schindler's List. This, the only memoir published by a former Schindler's List child, perfectly captures the innocence of a small boy who goes through the unthinkable. Most notable is the lack of rancour, the lack of venom, and the abundance of dignity in Mr Leyson's telling. The Boy on the Wooden Boxis a legacy of hope, a memoir unlike anything you've ever read.

He never finished high school, belonged to a gang from the age of eleven, and is a fast talker. He's never had money, and the problem has grown with his marriage to Megan Marie. While loading baggage for a flight, he finds a wooden box filled with diamonds, and it's only a short step to stealing it. But Carlo finds out he's taken on a lot more than he can handle as he creates anguish and misery for his loved ones. Kenny James Wilcox, a man who likes to hurt people, and Adel Avelo, his violent lesbian cohort, are sent to retrieve the diamonds. They kill Carlo's mother, rape his wife, and hide her in the Sandia Mountains to flush out Carlo and the diamonds. Carlo asks himself if he really wants to risk the diamonds and what they could bring for himself and his wife. When ex-cop Jeffery "J. T." Thorn is hired to bring back those linked to the diamonds, he doesn't hesitate to use violence to achieve his objective, fueling the already explosive situation. Filled with murder, sex, and suspense and reminiscent of a Quentin Tarantino movie, this fast-paced novel reveals the ultimate price of greed.
