Angie Marchetti should be over the hill by now, the ski hill, that is. Instead, she's muddled up to her middle in murder on the mountain. Angie provides undercover security services to winter resorts in exchange for her one passion in lifeskiing. Her clients pay her, and her imposing canine sidekick, Nikki, a spoiled Alaskan Malamute, with meals, lodging, lift tickets and dog biscuits for their help in tracking crime in snow country. Snow Ghosts is an action-packed romp down the slopes in the competitive world of ski resorts. Set in the Pennsylvania Allegheny Mountains, Angie encounters aging glory-boys and the shock of corruption in the ski business. She and Nikki converge with the ominous Barrows, striking, yet cunning twin brothers who own Fox's Run. Her cranky friend Brad Lennon manages Monastery, the competing resort. It is situated on the former site of a real monastery, abandoned a century ago, but leaving a ministerial aura about the mountain. Up, down and around the slopes with such likely names as Vespers, Celibacy and Monk's Revenge, the mission is to find the culprit who is sabotaging the tiny resort with dangling chair lifts, fires, collapsed bridges and bad publicity. Snow Ghosts is sprinkled with sensuous ski scenes, love for animals, and an occasional hot flash. Read it after a hard day on the slopes!
With careful research and imagination, author Linda Goyette has created a collection of 25 stories based on the true stories of named children of the past and present. Too often the youngest Canadians are erased from our historical memory. Rocky Mountain Kids provides firstperson creative non-fiction narratives from the region's children, many of whom went on to be influential adults. In the style of its successful predecessor, Kidmonton, these are lively and entertaining stories, but they don't flinch in their description of hardship and heroism. Balanced and well-researched, Goyette writes of First Nations, Métis, immigrant and settler children as well as contemporary kids of the Rockies, with informative postscript to help readers distinguish between the fact and the fiction. Against the timeless backdrop of the Rockies, we can all embrace a sense of childhood wonder. Please visit www.courageouskids.ca for more information on the whole Courageous Kids series.

Dave Ferman is a former high school English and science teacher, and a communications executive in the world's largest defense corporation. In 1956, he completed a tour as a U.S. Marine Grunt, a drill instructor, a military policeman, and a pilot. He also served in Sixth Fleet Air Intelligence with a clandestine atom bomber squadron in the Mediterranean Theatre, and on the West Bank and volatile "Green Line" between Israel and the Kingdom of Jordan. Along the way, he earned a succession of hard-to-get, easy-to-lose top U.S. security clearances that make him among the most highly vetted rookie authors in literature today. Uncle Sam trusts Dave Ferman. While growing up in urban Kansas during the Great Depression, the Dust Bowl, World War II and the birth of Rock 'n Roll, Dave had several unrelated but pleasant paranormal experiences. Curious and wishing for encores at age five, in denial at age10, then comfortably nonjudgmental until age 44 when his deceased father visited Dave one evening during a period of extreme f nancial stress to assure him: "Don't worry, son. Everything is going to be alright," and very soon it was. After that, Dave became a converted believer in some form of life after death. What other choice did he have? Dave's message is twofold: "Don't despair, if all goes well, you and your departed loved ones will be reunited in the hereafter," and "I am no longer afraid to die; and you should not be, either."
Residing in a place in the far north where the snow constantly falls, the friendly snow ghosts spend their days and nights playing snow games, sliding on ice, and having a generally good time in their wintry world.
Ghosts & Legends of Colorado’s Front Range by Cindy Brick Pdf
Stunning natural wonders and bustling cities make Colorado's Front Range one of the country's best places to live, but its rowdy past left some residents unable to quit the state--even in death. Outside Fort Collins, many a startled visitor spies grisly shadows hanging from the notorious Hell Tree. A reputed murderer stalks the Greeley Courthouse near where he was lynched for his alleged crimes. The disembodied heads of two vengeful banditos float through the basement of the Capitol Building in Denver. And the Broadmoor Hotel of Colorado Springs plays nightly host to a mysterious phantom lady. Author Cindy Brick reveals these and more gripping tales of the Front Range's spectral history.
The idea of a book about a child with Down Syndrome originated early on an Easter morning several years ago while I was having coffee and a susage biscuit at a Hardees restaurant. A little Hispanic girl, who appeared to have Down Syndrome, came to my table and stood staring at me. Slightly annoyed at first, I started to turn away. Then another child, perhaps a slightly older sister said, "She wants to hug you". Suddenly I received a hug that was so warm and genuine that I have never forgotten it. Inspiration also came from my friend, Carl Hibbert, Jr., a three sport National Special Olympics champion. Carl leads an active and happy life that has included challenging church mission trips to Haiti and Mexico, as well as several places in America. Now 30 years old, he is among the most active and popular young adults I know. I was also encouraged by my son, a pediatrician, who finds his patients with special needs among his most endearing.
