Elvis Purrsley Has Left The Building by C. Love Pdf

Welcome to Yesteryear, the small tourist town where every day is still 1950 or 1960-something. Poodle skirts are in, the sounds of Elvis Presley and The Supremes fill the air, everyone is kind, and bad things never happen... or at least that's what the brochure says. I wasn't looking for trouble when I returned to Yesteryear for my great-aunt's funeral, but I certainly came to the right place. My first surprise was that I'd inherited Aunt Della's beloved cat, Elvis Purrsley. My second surprise was that she left Yesteryear to the cat... but only if her murder is solved within thirty days, which brings me to the third surprise: Aunt Della was murdered, or at least that's what she claimed in the video she left behind. Most of the family thinks Della was crazy to believe the psychic who foretold her death, not to mention leaving the town she founded and most of her estate to a cat and threatening to sell off the town if her murderer wasn't caught before the month was out, but then someone tried to kill again... If no one else is going to take the case seriously, it's up to me and Elvis Purrsley to find the murderer and save the town.

Through a Glass Darkly by Brooks Horsley Pdf

In 4562, Christian Brandon, a successful 35 year old physician, leaves his comfortable home and with his ten year old daughter, Gwen, emigrates to distant Kerry, the only planet on record to have destroyed itself with a no-holds-barred nuclear war 1500 years earlier. Chris feels certain the preapocalyptic ruins hold the secret to the missing home planet of man, the home that is clearly indicated by the early languages and customs yet is no where to be found. Christian's convictions are based on anomalies in both the galaxy itself and the pattern of man's 4500 year galactic history. He senses a connection with the Word, the visionary founder of the Sapphire Way, who was present at the preapocalyptic colonization of Kerry. The quest for answers has an odd pattern of its own, and over Christian's lifetime involve interplanetary war and the apparently impossible faster than light star drive.

2084 by Rick Chapman Pdf

2084—When God Blessed America Again is a gripping story of a man and a woman who grew up under the iron fist of Islamic law in the United States of Islam, formerly known as the United States of America.

By totally separate circumstances, they find themselves in Alaska, one of the few areas of the globe that a person can live in “relative” freedom. They eventually find each other in the wilderness along with a group of people who also cherish the idea of freedom. 2084 is filled with intrigue, war, and romance. Not a book for the weak of heart!

Sally of Sefton Grove by Dee Williams Pdf

Amidst the trauma and the tragedy of the Blitz, a young woman realises she must take responsibility of her own future... Sally of Sefton Grove is a captivating saga from Dee Williams, of a young woman's search for happiness in a country on the brink of war. Perfect for fans of Dilly Court and Cathy Sharp. Though she is still grieving the death of her mother, nineteen-year-old Sally Fuller has little choice but to carry on with the everyday business of life in 1930s Rotherhithe, caring for her father and younger brother and sister, and spending as much time with her boyfriend Pete as he can spare from his moneymaking schemes. But at the back of her mind she feels a nagging dissatisfaction - her matter-of-fact relationship with Pete, for instance, bears little resemblance to the romances of her movie-star idols, or even to the colourful liaisons of some of her more adventurous friends. And what about her more modest hopes for marriage and a baby of her own? Once again, Pete shows little interest. As war grows closer, Sally sees she must focus her mind on keeping those she loves safe, and put her own selfish longings behind her. But war changes things... What readers are saying about Sally of Sefton Grove: 'Of all the Dee Williams books I have read, this one was by far the best. I was drawn into the lives of Sally and her family. I felt I was sitting in the air-raid shelter with them praying we would all get out!' 'This is just the sort of story I love - heartache and passion. I loved the characters and I loved the story. Well done Dee!' 'Enjoyed it immensely - five stars'
