This historical novel tells the story of a twelve-year-old Chumash boy and his family who become captives in a California Spanish mission sometime more than 200 years ago. This is historical fiction based entirely on historical fact that reveals the devastating impact the missions had on California Native peoples. Written for fourth, fifth and sixth graders, the story ends on a hopeful note as a small group of Native children are able to escape their captors and begin a journey to join other Native escapees in a remote mountain village. As mandated by the California Department of Education, every 4th grader is taught the ';Mission Unit,' which perpetuates the ';idyllic mission myth' that glorifies the priests, denigrates California Indians and fails to mention that Indians were actually treated as slaves held captive by a Spanish colonial institution. The manuscript has been reviewed and approved by the Director of the Santa Ynez Chumash Culture Department and a member of the California American Indian Education Oversight Committee. It has the endorsement of a fourth grade teacher in California who has shared the story with her class and a local librarian who is excited about sharing the story with elementary age children through the library. It has also been endorsed by the local library branch manager and a former professor of Anthropology within the University of California system.

"He's the God of Death. She's the bride sent to kill him. Their union may be the end of them both. The Everfrost is ruled by the King in his castle of ice. Some call him the Ice Phoenix, others the God of Death. The clans survive by one law alone: pay the King the homage he is due and never take what belongs to him. But when Sunnèeva Morkháan's brother falls gravely ill, she will have to do exactly that. Against every warning, she sneaks into the castle to steal the one thing that would save him-a magical rose. But you don't steal from the King and live to tell the tale. When the Ice Phoenix discovers her theft and demands payment, the cost is too steep. Mourning and enraged, she challenges him, only to lose. To spare her clan from the King's wrath, her father offers her as a bride, and for a reason she cannot fathom, the King agrees. Revenge is a delicate game Sunnèeva is determined to play, even if killing the God of Death is no easy feat. But as secrets unfold around the alluring King, and dark threats emerge from the shadows, Sunnèeva struggles to hold on to her hatred-and her heart. Inspired by Beauty and the Beast, King's Bride is the first book in Beck Michaels' companion prequel series, the Chronicles of Urn-dark fables founded in forbidden love and strong-willed women who bring kings to their knees." --

The ruthless and powerful crime family that reigned in Kansas City appeared to be on its last legs in the 1990's. But the Mafia life still called to a cadre of young men with gangster ambitions, and the FBI was still aggressively pursuing the organization that would stubbornly survive into the next millennium. Agents in KC were also hot on the trail of a massive insurance fraud enterprise run by the Riley family, a criminal organization unto themselves whose youngest member, Joseph Riley, had his own dreams of gangster glory. Big-time white-collar crime would soon collide with the gritty underworld of a Mafia town in a deadly drug sting that attracted nationwide attention and tested the limits of a controversial legal doctrine. Through copious research and interviews with principal participants, author Frank R. Hayde pieces together an epic true crime tale with surprising connections and startling events.

Every summer, about a thousand of America's best and brightest young men and women show up at the granite gates of the United States Military Academy at West Point, NY. After a hug, a kiss and shared tears with parents, they are marched into a completely foreign world that reaches back more than two centuries. As they undergo a formidable 47-month challenge, they are connected to those who have gone before them - the legendary Long Gray Line - by traditions and experiences, many as old as the academy itself. "An Illustrated Look at Traditions of the United States Military Academy A to Z" includes just some of the many traditions familiar to West Pointers, both as Cadets and as "Old Grads." To outsiders, many of these will seem strange and archaic. But, as the reader can see from the included comments of more than 200 West Pointers (from classes as far back as 1843 and as recent as 2026), these traditions are enduring. They help mold the culture of America's warrior leader class.

"Is it braggin' to say I saved a town?">Twelve-year-old Oliver Ellison loves his summers with his grandparents. Riding his bike here and there between his grandmothers' lessons on becoming a gentleman, Oliver is seemingly invisible to adults, so he manages to overhear a lot. One of his favorite stops is the gas station of his miserly and misanthropic old-maid great uncles. It is here that one evening he witnesses the conversation that ultimately sets off the spark of disagreement between the two old brothers, igniting the town as everyone chooses sides. Narrated by the now fourteen-year-old Oliver, along with an omniscient third person, what follows is a pairing of the absurd with the sentimental as Oliver tries desperately to tell the truth of what he heard, and bring Opp back to its simple, magical place as the City of Opportunity.
