A father and daughter, a secret past, and a search for redemption drive this haunting novel that “celebrates the complexities of love” (Joyce Faulkner). Sandy Richards is a music teacher, wife, and mother living a comfortable life in a small Midwestern town. But her warm smile and easy laugh hide a heavy burden. During her childhood, she was inseparable from her larger-than-life father, a World War II hero she adored. Sandy followed him everywhere, hung on his every word, and loved him with all her heart. Until, for reasons Sandy never understood, their relationship shattered—left broken to the day he died. With grief, regret, and anger, Sandy sorts through her father’s belongings to learn what went wrong, and to deal with all the unresolved pain of the past. Then, as if by providence, a stranger enters Sandy life. And everything changes once more. Exploring the forces in nature that are more powerful than ourselves, The Final Service is “a compelling and endearing” novel about the need for forgiveness and to forgive, and to embrace what matters most in life while it’s still within reach (James Riordan, New York Times–bestselling author).
The “thoroughly fun . . . [and] crazy good” memoir about one man’s life and how it was changed by the legacy of a rockabilly legend (Chicago Sun-Times). Buddy Holly, icon: black horn-rimmed glasses, blue jeans, a white T-shirt, white socks, loafers, and “Peggy Sue.” Not so much to Gary W. Moore. Admitting he “grew up in a Rock & Roll vacuum,” Gary favored jazz. He couldn’t name a single Buddy Holly song. Buddy Rich? Yes. But that changed in a single evening when Gary was dragged along to a Winter Dance Party in Cedar Falls, Iowa—a tribute to Buddy’s final, tragic 1959 tour. It was headlined by musician extraordinaire John Mueller, whose uncanny recreation of the legend was hailed by Buddy’s own brother Travis as “the best I’ve ever seen.” It took just one song to seize Gary’s heart and soul. From then on, for Gary, it was everything Buddy. In this inspiring “rock-and-rollercoaster of a read”, Moore shares his personal journey to learn more about Buddy’s life, music, his influence, his impact, and the times in which he lived (Bill Guertin, author of Reality Sells). He’d meet Buddy’s friends and family, celebrities, Buddy Holly fans, and make a new friend himself in John Mueller. The result is “as American as apple pie and as compelling as Don McLean’s legendary hit about The Day the Music Died” (James Riordan, New York Times–bestselling author).

Abraham Lincoln's face is on the penny and the five-dollar bill. His name graces towns and schools and luxury motor cars. In Washington, he is a seated god twenty feet tall in his marble temple. He ended slavery and brought our country through a civil war. What if it all was because of a woman? Auburn-haired Ann Rutledge, feisty and fed-up with propriety, is frontier royalty, the 18-year-old daughter of the founder of the rough little frontier village of New Salem, Illinois, where the 22-year-old Abe Lincoln comes looking for work. She is lively and literate and funny, and Abe is straight off his daddy's farm with jug ears and one change of clothes. Homely and poor, but full of high ambition, Lincoln courts the dazzling red-haired woman who comes into his life like a revelation. In the spell of their feelings, the lovers question the limits in their lives and boldly dream of a better future. But she is engaged to another man. Readers who enjoyed Doris Kearns Goodwin's bestselling Lincoln book Team of Rivals, Steven Spielberg's blockbuster film Lincoln, and George Saunders' Lincoln in the Bardo will marvel again at this very different and compelling tale of Lincoln as a young man. Not a grand historical treatment but a lyrical telling of a deeply personal tale, ABE & ANN dares to give readers an earnest but untutored Lincoln whose humanity every reader can share, who was weak before he was strong, frightened before he was bold, and deeply in love with a woman whose admiration confirmed his belief in the greatness within him.

The message of "Look Up America" is precisely what the title recommends. Our nation has become dispirited and divided because we are looking the wrong direction for help. Some are looking to the right, even as far as the Tea Party. Others are gazing to the left toward those behind the Occupy moments. Many of the remainder are looking toward a future where their children and grandchildren will have a lower standard of living. The reason for such poor vision is that we have stopped looking up to the truth. Gary Moore, Wall Street veteran, commentator, and founder of The Financial Seminary skillfully uses Scripture, an experienced understanding of the economy, and artful insight into the political environment to issue the call that help comes when we look up. Tony Campolo says Gary Moore "transcends the easy answers of what is wrong with America being provided by those on the political right and finds that real sources of trouble lie in a moral deficit that has emerged in our nation over the past fifty years. Tapping into the rich treasure house of scripture he endeavors to explore what Jesus prescribed as the cures for our economic maladies." "Look Up America" will give you hope. You will realize that, even though it is a concern, the federal debt is not on the verge of bankrupting our nation. You will be encouraged to look at what God has done for us rather than fearing what we are doing to ourselves. The information found in "Look Up America" should be read and understood by every candidate running for office and every politician who purports to comprehend our nation's economic needs. It is a book of refreshing good news. Never one to shy away from controversial matters, Gary Moore also offers a valuable word to the church about the failure to teach and practice real stewardship. He calls the church to move beyond the singular emphasis of getting out of debt and begin to proclaim a message that he calls "stewardism." This simply means that we should build an economy and practice on morality rather than corporate profit alone. Financial expert Jim Blasingame says, "America needs the wisdom Gary Moore delivers in his new book, Look Up America. As you're drawn into these pages, here's what you will learn about my friend: He's an intellectual, delivering these big ideas in plain English. He's a devout Christian proposing real world solutions for the real lives of all Americans."
