Closer Than You Know by Brad Parks Pdf

Brad Parks delivers a riveting, emotionally powerful stand-alone domestic suspense thriller perfect for fans of The Couple Next Door and What She Knew. Disaster is always closer than you know. It was a lesson Melanie Barrick learned the hard way growing up in the constant upheaval of foster care. But now that she’s survived into adulthood—with a loving husband, a steady job, and a beautiful baby boy named Alex—she thought that turmoil was behind her. Until one Tuesday evening when she goes to pick up Alex from childcare only to discover he’s been removed by Social Services. And no one will say why. It’s a terrifying scenario for any parent, but doubly so for Melanie, who knows the unintended horrors of what everyone coldly calls “the system.” Her nightmare grows worse when she arrives home to learn her house has been raided by sheriff’s deputies, who have found enough cocaine to send Melanie to prison for years. The evidence against her is overwhelming, and if Melanie can’t prove her innocence, she’ll lose Alex forever. Meanwhile, assistant commonwealth’s attorney Amy Kaye—who has been assigned Melanie’s case—has her own troubles. She’s been dogged by a cold case no one wants her to pursue: a serial rapist who has avoided detection by wearing a mask and whispering his commands. Over the years, he has victimized dozens of women. Including Melanie. Yet now her attacker might be the key to her salvation... or her undoing.

The Future Is Closer Than You Think by Zaslow Crane Pdf

Cherry-picked from the "Day After Tomorrow" these stories heavily influenced by The Twilight Zone run from the very serious to the absurd; from A.I. on trial for manslaughter, to fortune hunters raiding an abandoned temple on a far off planet. But just because that ancient temple is abandoned doesn't mean that it's not guarded.* Or, what if God is not omnipotent, but instead is really, really adept? That means that He has limits? Have we reached those limits? * We follow a bunch of soldiers in a civil war taking new equipment out in the field for the first time. What could go wrong? As it turns out, nearly everything.* What if the Beatles could do one last tour? Yes, ALL FOUR of them.* You're a crew member on a ship halfway to Mars, on a "milk run", a simple delivery, when the ship begins to deteriorate quickly. There's no help coming in time. Will teamwork save the crews' lives?* Aliens arrive- "First Contact", but they only came for dinner.* An old miner alone in outback of Mars' Tharsis Montes region has a deadly secret...but it's not the one you think.Plus, lots more, and they all ask the question: What will tomorrow be like?- And is there a place for me there?PlusPreviews of upcoming books and a new short story - part of a book project detailing Humanity's first attempt at colonization on an exo-planet. -It's not usually monsters that will kill you. Often you've got to watch out for the stuff that seems mundane. Zaslow Crane's "Tomorrow Is Closer Than You Think -Stories From The Day After Tomorrow". - Book One

Say Nothing by Brad Parks Pdf

“Outstanding—starts with a bang and gets tenser and tenser. Say Nothing shows Parks is a quality writer at the top of his form.”—Lee Child “Terrific book. Truly terrific. Tension throughout and tears at the end.”—Sue Grafton Judge Scott Sampson doesn’t brag about having a perfect life, but the evidence is clear: A prestigious job. A loving marriage. A pair of healthy children. Then a phone call begins every parent’s most chilling nightmare. Scott’s six-year-old twins, Sam and Emma, have been taken. The judge must rule exactly as instructed in a drug case he is about to hear. If he refuses, the consequences for the children will be dire. For Scott and his wife, Alison, the kidnapper’s call is only the beginning of a twisting, gut-churning ordeal of blackmail, deceit, and terror. Through it all, they will stop at nothing to get their children back, no matter the cost to themselves...or to each other. “Complications and twists build to an unexpected climax that is both perfect and gut-wrenching.”—Library Journal (starred review) “Grips the reader from the get-go and doesn’t let up until the final twist.”—Associated Press

Heaven is Closer than You Think by Fred Blom Pdf

This is a testimony of real life, not games or movies. The majority of the people in the world don't believe in the one and only God. Then there are fewer which believe in Jesus Christ. Of that group, how many drift in and out of this commitment? How many worship with their lips but not their hearts? My parents and relatives fell into the group of "there is no God, just nature and the natural renewal of its cycle." For me, curiosity was the thing. I had to know the beginning and end of everything step by step. It's the way I am built! I want every breath and every step I take to be closer to Jesus Christ. Walk with me, and we will see how close heaven really is to us. Run away with me, and I bet we will run right into the hand of God. I have done it a couple of times! I want you to come with me! Please, it's important! Why write this testimony of life? Did I say, "Please, come along with me"? Well, we all have the happy and sad, the hard and easy, and the close to God, whether we are aware of it or not, and the far from God, which we do not understand. Just a few weeks ago, I asked my Father in heaven if I should continue to write the first testimonials each month or perhaps even reveal the deep things which have helped me through life. In the process and time of seven days, I was shown how the hidden secrets of heaven work. To me it's funny, serious, and truthful--this simple thing connecting so many things together which have occurred in my life? I work on my testimonial stories at night. It was the hand of God that leads me to do that, no doubt, and you will learn that a little later. There are always more people to give them to than I can accomplish. "Maybe I should put them in a book for everyone, Father. I don't have time or know-how..." I felt like a tap in the back of my head when I prayed that. I slapped my hand over my mouth, trying to take it back; at the same time, I looked behind myself to see if something had fallen off the wall. I stopped praying, took a big sigh, and went to sleep. Why did I say "too busy"? I wrestled all night with, "The secrets of heaven are my Lord Jesus Christ's, but that which he gives us are ours." For there is nothing covered that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not be known. (Luke 12:2) I was referred to recently as the little lion which would not roar and the lost generation. Then a voice stood up for me and said, "No, this is the one who walks the dusty road." I wanted to respond, but I fell to the ground in weakness because of the awesomeness around me. I was shown the loss of mankind and told to go forth with the testimony I was given. I cry and pray with great supplication before the heavenly throne of our savior, Jesus Christ. I don't want anyone to be lost! Love in Christ, Fred

Objects in Mirror are Closer Than They Appear by Katharine Weber Pdf

Harriet Rose, 26, is an American photographer just winning recognition for her work. A travel fellowship brings her to visit her best friend and former roommate, Anne Gordon, in Switzerland. In an ongoing letter to her boyfriend, Harriet reports on strange developments in Anne's life, most notably her affair with a much older married man, which seems to be leading to a disastrous conclusion. Before she can rescue Anne, events take a series of unexpected turns, and Harriet must reexamine her own life and past, and come to terms with the difficulties and possibilities of human relationships. Already excerpted in The New Yorker, Katharine Weber's witty first novel of attraction and deception, a tale with the sensibility of a Margaret Atwood, pulses with cultural references and word games that echo Nabokov.
