Death in Dutch Harbor
D. Macneill Parker 0.0
When two murders strain the police force of a remote Alaskan fishing port, veterinarian Maureen McMurtry is tapped by Dutch Harbor's police chief for forensic assistance. The doctor's got a past she'd rather not discuss, a gun in her closet, and a retired police dog that hasn't lost her chops. All come in handy as she deciphers the cause and time of death of a local drug addict washed ashore with dead sea lions and an environmentalist found in a crab pot hauled from the sea in the net of a fishing vessel. When her romantic relationship with a boat captain is swamped by mounting evidence that he's the prime suspect in one of the murders, McMurtry struggles with her own doubts to prove his innocence. But can she? McMurtry's pals, a manager of the Bering Sea crab fishery and another who tends Alaska's most dangerous bar assist in unraveling the sinister truth.

Omie's Well
Rebecca T Holbrook 0.0
Omie Silar and her mamma Kate were descended from a line of women with the Sight-a knowing of things to come, of secrets hidden beneath life's surface. Midwives and healers, they used their gifts to lessen the suffering of those living and those spirits hovering between. Had Omie been able to read the portents at the bottom of her own teacup, she might have borne less suffering herself. Perhaps when she saw, as her mother predicted, the face of the man she was to marry, she only sensed the sweetness that overlaid the sorrows to come.

Nate Silar ran away from an abusive father at a young age, finding his way to Omie and the fate awaiting them. Frank and Kate Lee bring the troubled boy into their family, giving him the home he'd never had. Omie's love and Nate's bottled demons struggle for his soul, leaving them to choose what to do with both their gifts and their burdens.

Set in the early 1900's near Savannah, Georgia, Omie's Well captures the rich flavor of the south, its humor, the strength of its people, and the challenges a changing world brings to their doorstep.

Travels with My Grief: A Personal Journey of Love, Loss and Recovery
Susan Bloch 0.0
Witty, yet wise with intimate insights, this is a unique journey of sensuous delights, a beautiful and compelling series of adventures that capture the insecurities, pain and ultimate joy of a middle-aged woman facing life and embracing life on her own. When Susan Bloch lost her partner John far too early, she faced her grief with courage - and what many would term a moment of madness. Giving up her successful career in the UK, she moved overnight to India, facing not just the uncertainties and worries of a new life in a strange land - and being one of the only white women in a high-powered corporate role - but coping with her own very real grief at the death of her husband. Susan's brave - and some might say unconventional - approach to tackling her grief provides a compelling and very human insight into loss of a loved one, and at the same time delivers a beautifully written love letter to India in all its vibrant, chaotic, life-affirming glory. Refreshingly honest and highly emotive, Travels with My Grief is as engaging as it is inspiring, and is more than a simple self-help manual or travelogue.
