Book excerpt: A gritty, page-turning thriller perfect for fans of Martina Cole. Refugees are disappearing in Glasgow. The mutilated body of one has been found, but the police aren't interested. Can crime reporter Rosie Gilmour uncover the truth before the killer comes for her? Steeped in its own problems, Glasgow's mushrooming underclass is simmering with resentment and the sudden flow of Kosovan refugess into the city; and one by one, refugees are disappearing. The authorities assume the refugees have vanished into the black economy, until the mutilated body of an Albanian man is fished out of the River Clyde. Asylum seekers and refugees with no roots and no families are easy pickings. But why is there no urgency from the authorities to find out what's happening? Rosie Gilmour's instincts tell her there's more to this story, but after six weeks on the frontlines in Kosovo, is her sympathy for the refugees clouding her judgement?

Book excerpt: First there was the darkness, and then the burning sands. A mysterious man wakes up with no memories of who or where he is, and so he sets out to explore the desolate wasteland around him. But amid burning skies and men who manifest the darkest parts of themselves, he finds others like himself, and together they set out to rescue someone he can barely remember. Braving a city of madmen, a valley with monstrous, howling creatures and a river overrun with storms and the souls of the lost, he and his companions ultimately make their way to the most dangerous place imaginable, to the very throne of the devil's kingdom, in an effort to rescue one soul for the sake of an invisible friend they can't even see. Beyond the Gates takes you into the mythology of Heaven, Hell and Earth, exploring all three through the eyes of an amnesiac who struggles to learn what's real and what isn't in a place where even time seems to hold no power. But at the core, it probes the question of whether or not you'd be willing to enter the most dangerous place on God's behalf, to plumb the deepest depths for his sake, to truly and unflinchingly walk Beyond the Gates.

Download or read book Radical Hospitality Benedict s Way of Love written by Lonni Collins Pratt and published by Paraclete Press. This book was released on 2011-06-01 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For readers of “The Benedict Option”, here is another invaluable collection of Benedictine wisdom to live by. Today's culture is increasingly hostile and suspicious toward anyone who appears to be different--especially when tragedy strikes. Our instinct is to bolt our doors and protect the ones we love. But deep within the heart of Benedictine spirituality lies a remedy to hatred, fear, and suspicion: hospitality. At once deeply comforting and sharply challenging, true Benedictine hospitality requires that we welcome the stranger, not only into our homes, but into our hearts. With warmth and humor, drawing from the monastic tradition and sharing personal anecdotes from their own lives, Pratt and Homan encourage us to embrace not only the literal stranger, but the stranger within and the stranger in those we love.
