When Natalie and Anna, sisters and life-long rivals, hide an abandoned child from the Nazis, their deception resurrects the scars of a star-crossed love triangle that threats their safety and tests the bonds of their loyalty.
Hungary's fragile alliance with Germany insured that Natalie, a renowned children's book author, and her family would be safe as the war raged through Europe. But, as the Führer's desperation grows in the waning years of the conflict, neighbors now become traitors.
Beautiful but troubled Anna, poet and university professor, is losing her tenuous hold on reality, re-igniting a sibling rivalry that began with a poetry contest in childhood. It boils over when Deszo, Anna's unrequited love, re-enters their lives with a promise of safety.
As the streets of Budapest thrum with the pounding boots of Nazi soldiers, danger creeps to the doorstep and the sisters' disintegrating relationship threatens to expose the child they are trying to protect. In one night, Anna's rash behavior destroys their carefully made plans of escape, and Natalie is presented with a desperate decision.
Interwoven with Natalie and Anna's story, is Mila's. The abandoned child whose future Natalie lovingly imagines in a story called Mrs. Tuesday's Departure.
A story that takes on a life of its own fifty years later.
Mrs. Tuesday's Departure is a haunting tale of un-requited love and the un-breakable bonds of sisters.

Vertical Gardening - Bountiful Harvest in Small Places
was written by Don Evans, an avid gardener who enjoys things a little
"different" in his garden. It's concise and simple, with detailed plans
and clear instructions on vertical garden design, (a form of container
planting), that can be built from everyday materials found in any
backyard and local hardware shop - materials that certainly won't break
the bank.
Inside you'll find...
The Idea Behind Vertical Gardening
Whether it's a focal point in an existing garden landscaping layout, or as a means to enjoy gardening in tight spaces.
Buying a Vertical Tower - the things to look for, and the additional items you may need.
How to build a Flower Tower
- An inexpensive, easy to maintain and colorful garden tower that will
surely be the focal point in your garden, & the envy of all your
visitors.
How to build a Strawberry Tower - Enjoy unlimited fresh Strawberry's, and enough for the entire family, all from the harvest of just one of these beauty's.
How to build a Fresh Herb Tower
- Imagine enjoying the freshest of fresh herbs right from out your back
door. No more dried herbs for you, after all nothing beats fresh!
How to Build a Vegetable Tower
- Yes, you can grow vegetables vertically, but of course you have to
pick your species. (Plan on buying your sweet corn from the market still
- some plants of course aren't meant to be grown in a tower!)
Building a Potato Tower - Turn a handful of seed potatoes into 20 lbs of fresh potatoes in an area of no more than two square feet!
Vertical Gardening - Bountiful Harvest in Small Places
is great for all gardeners who are looking for ideas to brighten up an
existing garden, maybe create awesome Flower Tower sentinels to grace a
deck, or for those looking for some fresh herbs perhaps, but have
limited space. The ultimate in container gardens. The possibilities are
endless.

The
Geronimo Breach is a breakneck-paced thrill ride that pits the world's
most unlikely protagonist against the deadliest adversaries on the
planet. From the corridors of Langley to the sweltering jungles of
Panama, from the hills of Pakistan to the cocaine trails of Colombia, a
clandestine scheme to preserve a terrible secret goes horribly awry,
plunging a reluctant hero down a deadly rabbit hole of deceit and
betrayal, while raising disturbing questions about the media, the war on
terror & its linkage with the war on drugs, & the nature of
reality in an age of sound-bites and photo ops.
Albert Ross is a
malingering misanthrope - a boozing, chain smoking philanderer; shifty,
lazy, cowardly, going to fat, & more prone to doing the wrong thing
than any man alive. His purgatorial existence working for the State
Department in Panama gets shattered when a routine errand becomes a race
against the clock, battling adversaries for whom no price is too high
to protect a secret that could topple the world order. As the body count
climbs in a struggle without rules, Al must face his own demons, as
well as the myriad very real ones intent upon destroying him. The
unexpectedly shattering conclusion of this richly drawn thriller is both
topical & chillingly plausible, making for a roller-coaster
action/adventure without parallel.

Diamond is known for being the best field agent around in the Los

Services. The OSS, quite simply, gets the worst crime jobs on the

ex-tactical assault agent with Special Weapons and Tactics, Diamond has
enjoyed a near one hundred percent success rate in solving any crime,
anywhere.
But when lawyers suddenly end up mysteriously dying at
his brother's prestigious law firm, the evidence to be found is wanting
in every way. The suspects in Lou Diamond's book are all dirty in some
way, but all clear of the suspicion of murder. As the body count
continues to grow at the firm he is investigating, so to does Diamond's
belief that the murderer at large is killing with a purpose other than
personal revenge.
Things become more complicated still when he
meets one of the firm's most powerful partners, the beautiful and
alluring, Linda Baylor. Compelled into a bizarre, sexual relationship
with Baylor, Diamond begins to have a terrible suspicion that there is a
gray area between sex, trust and blood. And that at the end of the day,
nothing is as it seems-and no one is who they claim to be.
Lou Diamond comes to understand that the end result of such ambiguity is death.

up, Lisa Reynolds was expected to be "perfect" in everything she did

forgave her.
When Lisa, who is now known as "Lee" Reynolds,
nationally known TV news anchor, returns to her home town to sell her
deceased mother's home, she never expects to find Tony there.
Both of them have changed a lot. Yet, being with him, she finds that in her heart, it seems like old times...
