Having served two tours in Afghanistan, Hudson Lee returns home to Georgia mentally traumatized after the death of his good friend, who sacrificed himself to save Hudson in battle. Deeply distraught and unable to see a way out of his depression, Hudson makes plans to end his life at the family farm, Whippoorwill Hollow. Just when he's about to follow through, however, he encounters an abandoned dog that's been bitten by a snake and in dire need of help. Hudson's protective instincts kick in, and he and the mistreated red-nose terrier, named Hank after Hudson's deceased friend, form an extraordinary bond. Across town, Katie Carter is increasingly despondent about the prospect of ever escaping her abusive fiancé, Sean. When Hank guides Hudson and Katie together, she, too, has nearly lost her will to live. No matter where she goes or what she does, Sean always seems to find her. But love, family, and forgiveness are powerful, and with Hank's help, Hudson and Katie stand a chance of outrunning the demons of their past and facing a future together. Davidson Lee Price's debut novel is a tender and moving story of what happens when unspeakable pain is finally shared and how a community can come together to heal it.

On one side of the window sits Kenneth Deatherage, sentenced to death for the brutal rape and murder of a young woman. On the other side is Nate Abbitt, a successful prosecutor until he drank his way through a midlife crisis. Nate's only path to redemption is to represent Deatherage on appeal, but his investigation soon uncovers hints of corruption in the county justice system, and Nate finds himself accused of murder by the same forces that convicted his client. As Nate risks his life - and several others - in the fight to clear his name, he makes the nasty discovery that he and his client have much more in common than he'd like to admit. ˃˃˃ Intelligent, atmospheric, achingly romantic legal thriller “Ken Oder debuts with an intelligent, atmospheric, and achingly romantic legal thriller.

There's a nationwide moratorium on executions until the court rules. Ironically, just days after The Closing became available on Amazon, Oklahoma botched the execution of Clayton Lockett, who according to eye-witness accounts, tried to get up and speak after being given the supposedly lethal injection. Although this book is set in 1968 Virginia, the subject matter could hardly be more topical. . . . This is a great summer read. You won't be able to put it down.

Book excerpt: Young married couple Andy and Deana Harris head up to Canada on an exciting snowshoe adventure. When Deana’s snowshoe breaks, her husband leaves her to go for help—or does he? Deana soon comes to the horrifying realization that her husband has left her for dead, and she must use all her wilderness know-how to get out alive. Deana fell for the oldest trick in the book: a handsome face hiding an evil heart. A combination of brains, determination, some luck, and a bit of attitude get Deana back to civilization. Now, it’s time for revenge. With the help of an unorthodox group of good guys, she makes a plan to hunt down coldhearted Andy and get back the money he stole from her. The trail leads this team of professionals—and some not so professional—from western Canada to Virginia, to the Midwest, and then back north to eastern Canada. The circuitous plot weaves together mystery, good, and evil with the beauty of Mother Nature as a backdrop. It is a rousingly entertaining read.

Download or read book Bet the Farm written by Beth Hoffman and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2021-10-05 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Eloquent and detailed...It's hard to have hope, but the organized observations and plans of Hoffman and people like her give me some. Read her book -- and listen." -- Jane Smiley, The Washington Post In her late 40s, Beth Hoffman decided to upend her comfortable life as a professor and journalist to move to her husband's family ranch in Iowa--all for the dream of becoming a farmer. There was just one problem: money. Half of America's two million farms made less than $300 in 2019, and many struggle just to stay afloat. Bet the Farm chronicles this struggle through Beth's eyes. She must contend with her father-in-law, who is reluctant to hand over control of the land. Growing oats is good for the environment but ends up being very bad for the wallet. And finding somewhere, in the midst of COVID-19, to slaughter grass finished beef is a nightmare. If Beth can't make it, how can farmers who confront racism, lack access to land, or don't have other jobs to fall back on hack it? Bet the Farm is a first-hand account of the perils of farming today and a personal exploration of more just and sustainable ways of producing food.
