Boxes For Beds by Maryann Miller
Genre: mystery, suspense, fiction, woman sleuth, historical
The 1960s were a time of peace and love in California, but not so in Hot Springs Arkansas where the mob still ruled. In Boxes For Beds, babies are being kidnapped, and the local sheriff has to put this case to bed before the bosses come down from Chicago for a big meeting. They don’t need the heat of an open investigation that could interest the Feds, and they have the leverage with the sheriff to make him do whatever they want. It seems like a good move to arrest Leslie Richards, the new woman in town, even though there is only thin circumstantial evidence against her. Better for it to be a stranger taking those babies and not one of their own. Leslie has left New York with her ten-year-old daughter, Mandy, hoping to escape from her past and the ruins of a relationship, only to discover that there is little peace for her in Pine Hollow, Arkansas.
Finders Keepers: A Jane Barnaby Adventure by J.J. DiBenedetto
About Finders Keepers: A Jane Barnaby Adventure by J.J. DiBenedetto
It should have been a simple job. All archaeology student Jane Barnaby had to do was pick up a box her professor needed and deliver it to him at his dig site, along with his new car. Yes, his office was in Oxfordshire, and his dig site was in Spain, a trip of 1,400 miles across three countries and two bodies of water. Still, it should have been simple.
And it was, until Jane discovered she picked up the wrong box by mistake. Not the one with boring pottery samples, but instead the one with priceless ancient Egyptian artifacts. The one that a team of international art thieves is after.
Now she’s chasing – and being chased by – the thieves. And she’s picked up a pair of passengers who claim they can help her outwit them, get her professor’s pottery back and return the artifacts to their rightful owner. If only she could figure out which one of them is working with the thieves and which one she can trust in this high-stakes game of finders keepers.

Author Bio:
Subhash and Sujata hail from India. They migrated to the United States along with their memories of childhood and youth. Now that they are parents, just like every immigrant they crave to introduce their child to the culture and values of their upbringing. Yet it is challenging to teach something while you are in the midst of adjusting to a different culture yourself.
Subhash and Sujata both work in different disciplines and have different styles and backgrounds, but it is the upbringing of their son that brings them on the same page. That exact place where they meet is captured and reflected in their stories, where Subhash can express in words, and Sujata can illustrate them beautifully. Where he puts it in black and white, she adds color to it. You get the idea!
These stories are their attempt to share a glimpse of their childhood days with their son. He is their inspiration to write short stories that have meaning to them and provide teaching in some shape or form.

Author Bio:
Howdy. I’m the man who calls himself Jeff Lawhead. I am the product of an Appalachian childhood that developed into an Appalachian adulthood (for lack of a more accurate term) throughout the Eastern Tennessee section of the Great Smoky Mountains. This mystic environment provided much inspiration for the surreal contexts of the hyperbolic world to be written about, and that is what I aim to do.

Author Bio:
The invention of the ebook, just like the University of Toronto’s Academic Bridging program, gave me the opportunity I needed to prove myself. Because of them, a runaway who had to sleep in a shopping cart at sixteen, a high-school dropout with seemingly no prospects, went on to live in the best city in the world, meet the best woman in the world and marry her, attain two degrees from one of the top forty universities in the world, before achieving his dream of being a full-time author and having one of the best-selling science fiction series in the world. The success of the series has also allowed me to adapt the novels for film, as I directed a proof-of-concept short film, and has given me the opportunity to become a TEDx speaker, speaking on the incredible potential and existential risk of post-humanity and superintelligent artificial intelligence. I couldn’t be more grateful to my readers and fans of the series!

Author Bio:
Kathleen Gage is the “no-nonsense, common sense” online marketing strategist, speaker, author, product creation specialist, and owner of Power Up For Profits. She helps entrepreneurs make money online. Her clients are driven by making a difference through their own unique voice.
As an early adopter of online marketing, Kathleen is considered to be one of the nation’s most passionate speakers. She is known for cutting through the fluff and helping people leave their sob stories behind so they can stop focusing on the past and start looking towards the future. She speaks and teaches about what she believes are the core elements of a successful life: accountability, integrity, honesty, and living with passion and hope.
Although Kathleen is recognized as a top leader in her field, this wasn’t always the case. Kathleen made choices in her teens and early twenties that took her from a comfortable middle-class upbringing to a life of homelessness and being unemployable.
Kathleen Gage rose above seemingly insurmountable odds to become an award winning business owner, bestselling author, Internet sales and marketing trainer, and award winning keynote speaker.
With more than thirty years of experience in sales, marketing, management, public relations, and promotions, Kathleen has consulted with and trained organizations such as the U.S. Marine Corps, Novus Corporation, and AT&T. She has acted in leadership and advisory capacities for many organizations, including being past president of the National Speakers Association Utah Chapter, past vice-chair and marketing chair for the Central Region Council for the Department of Workforce Services of Utah, and a member of the legislative council for the American Cancer Society of Utah.
Kathleen has written dozens of information products and books, has hundreds of interviews to her credit, and is a highly skilled, inspirational keynote speaker. Her mission is to help people understand that their business is merely a means to get their message out to the world. She teaches that it’s not just about what you do, but the reasons behind why you do it.
Although Kathleen Gage is best known for her no nonsense approach to life and business, when she’s not working with clients, creating information products, writing books or speaking on the platform, Kathleen can be found training for a marathon, walking her dogs, working in her many flower gardens, feeding her horses or playing a fierce game of cards.

FRACK OFF!
Europe is facing several major challenges as it tries to cope with a massive refugee crisis, and as it tries to recover from the heinous terror attacks in Paris, and in Brussels. Europe also faces an uncoordinated energy policy, which has led many of its nations to act independently, rather than working as a coordinated union. To its credit, Europe has invested massive sums of capital into renewable energy sources, but at the same time, is still held hostage by Russia, which provides 30 percent of its natural gas supplies. In the wake of the European Debt Crisis, Europe has fallen behind on its aggressive renewable energy targets, and economic growth has been stagnant, several years after the crisis. Europe is starving for greater energy policy flexibility, which would increase its energy independence. Nuclear power has not been promoted throughout Europe, and hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, has been banned by many countries. Responsible fracking can be achieved through best practices, and through environmental regulations, but Europe has said: FRACK OFF!
Some of the major topics within FRACK OFF!, include:
Europe’s reliance upon fossil fuels
Can the U.S. export enough shale gas to Europe?
The Russian & Ukraine conflict
The challenges of the Emissions Trading System, (ETS)
