    The follow-up to Pulitzer Prize finalist The Bright Forever, The Evening Shades tells the story of two lonely people in a small Midwestern town slowly revealing their secrets to themselves, and each other . . .One afternoon in the autumn of 1972, a lonely widow in Mt. Gilead, Illinois, makes the impromptu decision to rent out a room in her house to a socially awkward man, a stranger who has come to town. It is risky—she doesn’t know anything about him. But Edith Green can no longer bear a life lived alone. And Henry Dees, haunted by the past he carries with him from Tower Hill, Indiana, is plagued by a tremendous guilt about things he did and didn’t do that led to the death of a little girl back home. How can he face the rest of his life?The Evening Shades is as moving and suspenseful as its predecessor, Pulitzer finalist The Bright Forever. But it is a story that stands alone: a story of love found in middle age and the joy it promises, but not without serious complications. There is the bereaved family of the little girl, who are holding their own secrets about the mysterious disappearances of both the man who killed their daughter and Henry Dees.The Evening Shades is a poignant story of accommodation, resilience, forgiveness, and love in the face of all that threatens the splendor of our ordinary lives.

    The "Land of the Rising Sun" can be extremely mysterious to western visitors. However, to the folks who call Japan home, it is a land of clearly defined ancient customs coexisting with modern technological advancements under fairly rigid societal standards. This work is about Japan and things Japanese. It is intended for anyone who is coming to Japan or for folks who just want to learn more about this fascinating country. Coming to Japan, especially to live or work, makes for a tough transition and I wanted to provide information that could help make the move easier. The information contained here will be relevant to any walk of life. As you will see in the table of contents, I present a narrative which includes a wide range of topics. These topics were selected for their relevance to newcomers to Japan regardless of whether they are here for work or pleasure. With a fascinating history that goes back many thousands of years, it is amazing that Japan has managed to retain its true identity in these days of modern travel and instantaneous global communications. While concessions have been made to the march of time and the influence of western culture (especially in clothing, music and electronics), the Japanese are very protective of traditional ways. No amount of outside influence has been able to change their unique view of life and the world.In this book I will attempt to explain many of the things that make Japan what it is and hopefully make your visit to this wonderful land a more rewarding experience.

    Congratulations on finding this book. If you are reading this book, you are fortunate and blessed. After hundreds, perhaps a thousand years or more, the truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ is revealed.The truth of the gospel has been stolen and perverted by the devil. In these last days, the gospel has now been revealed as it was intended when it was first written.NINETY-NINE PERCENT OF ALL CHRISTIANS ARE GOING TO HELL. This book is written to start a fire in God's church. The church today is spiritually dead. Your worship is in vain, and your prayers are unheard. Your soul is lost. Woe to you.

    Tyler Sinclair has lived too hard and long to be sentimental. But when he hears about the brave exploits of one Ethan Mandell, he just has to ride up to Sweetwater Pass and see for himself. Ethan Mandell could be Tyler's father, who left long before Tyler was born and may not even know he has a son. There is a strong family resemblance-a quick hand with a gun, and a respect for the law. The law doesn't get much respect up in Sweetwater though, with the Rollins and the Crocker freight companies at war with each other. U.S. deputy marshal Ethan Mandell, as the town's official tamer, plans to change all that, but rumor has it that Crocker's men are after him, too. Tyler doesn't know which side he's on until he is caught off guard by the stunning Celia Rollins, who recently lost her brother and her pa to Crocker bullets. Tyler teams up with Ethan, aiming to learn about his past, but the man isn't offering any information for free. As Sweetwater's new deputy sheriff, Tyler may have to pay a high price for his peace of mind.
