The Rocking Horse by Gloria Zachgo

Jenny Preston has been missing for twenty-two years after being taken at the age of two on the very night her mother Amanda, Aunt Ruth, and Uncle Don were brutally and senselessly murdered. While Jenny’s grandparents learn to cope with the tragedies, the sheriff, Will Barclay, must grapple with his own guilt and secrets involving the murders. The crime, which rocked the small town of Shady Creek, Kansas, has never been solved.

​With the encouragement of her new friends, and a very special someone, she returns to Chicago to learn the truth of her childhood history from her father. After a gripping turn of events, Julie returns to Shady Creek to wrestle with the emotional complexities of her new life and how her past life is starting to catch up with her. An unexpected hero comes to Julie’s aid.

Author Bio:
It’s a natural for Gloria Zachgo to write stories with Kansas settings. She grew up on a farm in Lincoln County, where she attended one of the last one-room schoolhouses in the country. After graduating from Brown Mackie Business School, she married her high school sweetheart.
Living out of state for several years, Gloria and her husband moved back to their Kansas roots. While their children were young, she ran a small business out of their home. It was when her children left the nest, that she pursued a lifelong dream and took various art lessons.
Always wanting to learn new things she joined a creative writing group in 2006, and soon found she had a passion for writing fictional short stories. One particular short story was written on the prompts of a gingerbread man and a small toy horse. It led to her first novel, The Rocking Horse. “I knew there was more to the story. I kept seeing the image of a young woman, all alone, with a quirky little toy trying to give her a message.”
“I love writing about ordinary everyday people and their struggles with what life deals them.”
Gloria certainly did write about the struggles of ordinary people in her second novel, Never Waste Tears. She lets five individuals each tell their own story of what Kansas looked like in the 1860s, when the land was free, but the true price was often high.
Gloria’s characters often completely take over their own destination. In her latest novel, Hush Girl: It’s Only a Dream, Nicki Reed is no exception. Gloria simply wrote what Nicki felt as she delved into her past.
Gloria Zachgo and her husband currently reside in Wichita, Kansas.

About Counteract the Fat: Discover how Fiber and Antioxidants can Counteract the Physiological Effects of Junk Food – a nutrition, diet, health, weight and cholesterol control book by DeShond B Barnes

Counteract the Fat – a cutting edge new nutrition, diet, health, weight and cholesterol control paperback release – is a compilation of research findings on how fiber and antioxidants can counteract the physiological effects of junk food. Discover how fiber and antioxidants can help prevent medical conditions and weight gain associated with high-fat and other unhealthy great-tasting foods. The discussed Counteract the Fat concepts include:

☤ High-fat foods produce cholesterol-related acids that can clog arteries and raise cholesterol levels – opening the door to heart disease. Fiber counteracts that effect by nabbing cholesterol-related acids and removing them from our bodies, thus promoting healthy cholesterol levels and reducing our risk of heart disease.

☤ The excess calories in high-fat foods are absorbed by our bodies and stored as fat, and can cause us to gain weight – opening the door to obesity. Fiber counteracts that effect by nabbing calories before they can be absorbed and stored as fat, thus making it harder for us to gain weight and reducing our risk of obesity.

☤ High-fat foods increase our exposure to “free radicals,” which attack and damage healthy human cells – opening the door to cancer, heart disease and many other conditions. Antioxidants counteract that effect by neutralizing free radicals, thus preventing and reversing cellular damage and reducing our risk of cancer, heart disease and many other conditions.

☤ The excess calories in high-fat foods are absorbed by our bodies and stored as fat, and can cause us to gain weight – opening the door to obesity. Antioxidants counteract that effect by giving our bodies the energy needed to burn fat more efficiently, thus making it harder for us to gain weight and reducing our risk of obesity.

☤ High-fat foods can trigger heart attacks by causing blood clotting elements in the bloodstream known as “platelets” to become more adhesive and clump together, triggering the formation of abnormal blood clots in the heart artery. Abnormal blood clots can eventually trigger heart attacks. Fiber counteracts that effect by speeding the mechanisms in which abnormal blood clots dissolve, thus decreasing the likelihood that abnormal blood clots will lead to heart attacks.

☤ High-fat foods raise blood levels of fat and cholesterol, which can prevent insulin from attaching to our cells’ insulin receptors and make blood sugar unavailable to cells. Without sugar, cells lack fuel – leading to symptoms such as fatigue and dizziness. When sugar is unavailable to cells, it builds up in the bloodstream and becomes toxic, eventually damaging the eyes, kidneys, nerves, immune system, heart and blood vessels – opening the door to type II diabetes. Both fiber and the antioxidant “vitamin C” counteract that effect by promoting healthy blood levels of fat and cholesterol, thus allowing insulin to attach to our cells’ insulin receptors and thus making blood sugar available to cells. This prevents the sugar from building up in the bloodstream and becoming toxic – thus preventing damage to vital organs and reducing our risk of type II diabetes.

☤ And MUCH, MUCH MORE!

Research findings made at the following institutions have made the writing of Counteract the Fat possible:

Author Bio:
I discovered the Counteract the Fat concept back in the late 1990’s by poring through medical journals and health/nutrition publications for nearly a year. I later compiled the breakthrough research findings from the literature and applied them to my life. From November 1999 all the way to the present time, I have followed a “straight and narrow” dietary path to excellent health by successfully “Counteracting the Fat” in my diet. I have exercised EXTREME discipline and commitment to good health by reading nutrition facts labels and consuming a daily diet containing an average of 100+% of the Recommended Daily Allowance for fiber, antioxidants and other essential nutrients 7 days per week, 365 days per year, year after year since November 1999. I have actually used a CALCULATOR to add up the total amount of fiber, antioxidants and other essential nutrients provided by the health foods over the course of each day… ensuring that I either REACH or EXCEED the Recommended Daily Allowances each day. My extreme discipline and commitment has given me the ability to maintain excellent blood cholesterol, blood sugar, blood pressure and body weight without having to avoid junk food favorites… something that unfortunately no other member of my family (on either my mother’s or father’s side) has had the discipline and commitment to do. My success has inspired me to share this information with the rest of the world! I conduct frequent Counteract the Fat seminars at local Y.M.C.A.’s and public libraries in northern Illinois.

About The Katyn Diaries

First English translation of diaries found at Katyn, with illustrations by Rafal Mroz.

Denied by the Soviets, and hushed up by Poland’s allies.

The Katyn massacre was a series of mass executions of nearly 22,000 Polish military officers and intelligentsia that was carried out by the Soviet Union’s secret police – the NKVD – in April and May 1940.

Mass graves were discovered in 1942, and with the bodies there were numerous Polish artefacts such as letters, diaries, photographs and identification tags. They were packed into crates and evacuated westward in 1944.

There was a small crate, into which were placed twenty-two diaries and personal notes. Four copies of these items were made soon afterwards in Krakow, and the Polish Home Army then delivered its transcripts to the Polish government in exile, in London.

Presented for you here are English translations of twelve of those diaries, which open a window into the individual and personal tragedies of these very different individuals. They give us an insight into their everyday lives in captivity, and the very real and very human emotions and hardships they experienced during what was undoubtedly a difficult and testing time.

Reviews of The Katyn Diaries:
The diaries of the prisoners of Kozelsk camp, discovered on their bodies in 1943, provide a fascinating insight into daily life in the NKVD prison camps where the men were held between September 1939 and April/May 1940. By making the diaries available in English for the first time, Marek Sobieralski renders a valuable service to scholarship on this subject.
Jane Rogoyska
Historian and biographer, acclaimed author of Gerda Taro: Inventing Robert Capa

Miraculously survived, these twelve notebooks by the victims of the Katyn massacre reveal the details of their life in captivity, and document their subjective experiences. Frozen and underfed, these young officers took their ordeal with peace of mind. “This trip is not good at all”, wrote one of them. “Will they hand us over to the Germans? Will we sit here?”, asked another. “The Bolsheviks are generally decent people”. Though conditions were worsening, letters were permitted and, sometimes, actually arriving. Crowded in the ruined monasteries, these Poles admired the beauty of the Russian woods and churches. They received vaccinations for typhus and watched Soviet films with the titles such as “Golden Taiga” or “Great Comrade”. They wrote down their nightdreams and even organised “spiritualist seances“ to see their dear ones. Until the last moments, they did not anticipate their forthcoming end. Carefully translated and commented by a grandson of Polish refugees to England, this stunning collection will be cherished by its readers.

I live in Wiltshire in the UK, and am the grandson of Polish refugees who settled in England after the 2nd word war. I am interested in all things history, but particularly the convoluted times of the early to mid 20th century.

The Katyn Diaries is my first book, but hopefully not my last, with several projects currently slowly taking shape.

About Letters From 1969

How far would you go for love?

An Army officer visits a mysterious antique shop and is given a hope chest containing love letters written more than fifty years prior by a nurse in Vietnam.

Mike Falco is a young Army lieutenant and 1960s aficionado. When Mike visits the new antique shop in town, the eccentric proprietors insist that he’s the rightful owner of an old dust-covered hope chest.

Reluctantly, he accepts the piece, despite the caveat that, “Once you touch what’s inside this chest, it will touch you back.” He quickly discovers that the sole contents are love letters written in 1969 by a twenty-two-year-old Army nurse serving in Vietnam.

As Mike reads the letters, he finds himself deeply moved by them. And by the young woman who’d penned them more than a half-century before. He sets out on a quest to track her down, hoping she’s still alive so he can return them. But what he discovers when he finally unlocks the secret of the letters from nineteen sixty-nine propels him on an odyssey that spans not only continents,but across Time itself. It’s a journey fraught with risk and danger. But Mike’s willing to go as far as necessary for love, even if that means finding his future in the past.

So, put on your bell-bottoms, tie-dye, and love beads because Letters From 1969 will take you back to the Age of Aquarius, to the music, the culture, and the events that embodied that tumultuous time. And to all the joy—and heartache—that shaped both a nation and a generation.

About Before the Unit: The Recruiting of Kevin Banks by Anne Fox

How does a Secret Service agent charged with protecting the president of the United States find himself becoming a part of a federal law enforcement team that’s so secretive that their deaths are faked? The team and its support personnel, known only as “the unit”, unknown to him have had their eye on him.

How he ended up in the unit is not supposed to be known. However, when his wife—the unit’s only female member and the team’s sniper—hits him with a bit of logic, she manages to get him to tell his story.

This book is that story: the story of how a young man became convinced that protecting the president should be his goal, and how protecting the president led to him doing much, much more. It takes you step-by-step through his journey, letting you see through his eyes and his thoughts how he traveled along the way. By the end of the book, you will know how he got his curious code name—Spud—and understand what is meant by the phrase “keeping it real”.

Anne has spent time in locales as far separated as Maine and Japan, both in her personal travels and with the military, enjoying the people and places she has encountered along the way. She’s always up for a road trip, so you just might meet her one day, or find a book she’s left behind at some place she has stayed. Her flying has taken her from one side of the country (Vero Beach, Florida) to the other (Palo Alto, California) thus enabling her to say that she’s seen the country from both the surface and above.

She is the owner and “chief cook and bottle washer” of Star on the Mountain Books, LLC—her own publishing company.

Anne hopes you will enjoy this quick-reading novella-length story of how one of THE UNIT’s main characters made it into the story.

About Unperfect by Susie Tate

When Mia shows up for the interview at a well-known architecture firm, she only has 27p, a squashed loaf of bread and a jar of peanut butter to her name. She needs this job. Even if she is scared to death of the owner of the company.

Max has made a name for himself as that grumpy northern architect off Grand Designs, after he told Kevin McCloud that designing affordable, environmentally friendly homes “wasn’t rocket science” and that most of the other projects featured on the programme were for “reight poncy bastads who want to spend a grand on a shite tap.” It turned out that the whole gorgeous-but-rough-around-the-edges-Yorkshire-man vibe was just what the country was looking for – the episode had gone viral and Max was the new, extremely reluctant, pin-up of the building industry.

But to Mia, huge, grumpy men weren’t sexy, they were simply terrifying. She knows from experience that even men of average size can be dangerous. If she wasn’t so desperate, she’d run. She’s used to running. Running away is Mia’s special talent, together with invisibility – survival techniques she’s perfected over the years. So, she’ll put up with Max and his moods, ignore him calling her a teen emo freak (he’s not to know that her black hair used to be honey blonde or her heavy eyeliner isn’t by choice) and just bloody well jog on. Just try to survive. Try to hide.

It’s easy to hide when nobody really sees you. But what happens when Max finally opens his eyes?

Unperfect a full-length contemporary, enemies to lovers, office romance.

An old professor at UCLA promised me that I would make nothing of myself, so I made sure I did.
To the tune of billions. I’m only a little cocky about it.
Yachts, parties, and one-night events pretty much spell out my life.
And all of it works well until I run into a beauty I can’t get out of my head.
But we’re keeping it friendly and casual until we aren’t.
There’s just one problem. Her old man hates me.
And for good reason. He was my UCLA professor.
He’s dead set against me becoming anything important to his little girl, but the old man’s got it all backward.
I’m not looking to make an example out of our passion or prove a point.
This isn’t about hit it and quit it.
His daughter is mine, and he might kick me out, but she’s letting me all the way in.

About The Russian Empire: A Captivating Guide to the Third-Largest Empire in History, Starting from Peter the Great to the Russian Revolution by Captivating History

Russia has long been a powerful country. Even today, Russia stands as one of the great powers on the planet. But modern-day Russia is just a vestige of the greater territory that once constituted Imperial Russia. The Russian Empire spanned continents, and at one time, Imperial Russia could claim territory from Alaska to Poland and just about everything else in between.
Russian rulers felt that they were the inheritors of the Roman Byzantine Empire, and like the Caesars of old, they stylized themselves as “tsars.” These tsars ruled as absolute autocrats, directing the empire through the sheer force of their own willpower. However, despite its size and power, the Russian Empire was often plagued with massive internal problems.
An entire class of Russian peasants known as serfs, for example, were basically enslaved to the land they toiled on, unable to escape their lot in life. For much of the empire, the average Russian’s feelings were ignored by the tsar and the elite, but in the latter years of Imperial Russia, these unresolved problems would come back with a vengeance.
For the Russian Empire was not extinguished by an outside foe but rather collapsed from within. This book follows the rise of this Russian juggernaut from its earliest formation to its ultimate demise.
