Book excerpt: Everything was all right until that photograph showed up in my mailbox. No, that isn’t true. Nothing has been all right since my sister vanished into thin air. The sign outside my office reads, Anne Lockhart-Private Investigator, but most of my time is spent trying to find Katie. The photo leads me to Rising Moon, a New Orleans jazz club where my sister was last seen. The club’s chief attraction is John Rodolfo, an incredibly sexy, brilliant and blind saxophone player. He has secrets—more than most. Katie is not the first person to disappear from Rising Moon, and she won't be the last. As I unravel the mystery, John's involvement becomes frighteningly clear. Voodoo altars, roaving wolves and touches of black magic create more questions than answers. With Mardi Gras approaching the city is wild, on edge, dangerous. But so is John Rodolfo. Will I be able to find my sister before I lose my both heart and my life?

Book excerpt: Ruth, a princess of Moab, leaves her homeland after suffering terrible losses to become the mother of the royal house of Israel. Now, in a revolutionary reading of this immortal tale, Moshe Miller provides an entirely new perspective on this beloved story. Beneath the simple surface of this story, the Sages trace a web of primal issues, including the Serpent in the Garden of Eden; the jealousy of Cain; the painful break between Abraham and Lot; and the mystery that is the mitzvah of yibum. The fiber that binds together all these issues is love. Love is the key to this story, which culminates in the unique love of Ruth and Boaz, and the ancestors of the once and future king, David, whose very name means love! Moshe Miller is a graduate of Yeshivat Ner Yisrael and holds a master's degree in philosophy from Brown University. He has been an educator for nearly fifty years and immigrated to Israel in 2010. He lives in Jerusalem, where he continues to teach and write.
