It's a blaring 1968 in Bedlam, Ohio. When a warehouse in the small town burns down, a mystery unfolds. Fifteen-year old Shine Ross is a white, basketball-playing, trumpet-playing teen living in the residentially divided community. Along with his black best friend, Moondog, Shine pursues his flimsy instincts as to who set fire to the Empire.In the flamboyant and period-rich YA novel, Shine out of Bedlam, the lightening-rod American spectacle known as the ?60s soars in its shadows and light. At the center are youth and adults afloat in their ambitions and free-spirit. Shine navigates romance, racial drama, and his own family hang-ups. Even as the country searches for its identity, the factory town of Bedlam and its teens do the same. And find they must. Shine's fearlessness reaches full-tilt as he ramps up the search for a lost, prized, Amazon parrot; nails his train-hopping into an art form; plays trumpet (underage) in a local nightspot; and keeps alive his budding relationship with a girl he's known since first grade, even if it means getting rid of his Band-Aid box of cigarettes. It's all a frenzied and often darkly comic mix with a carefree boy at its center.What do you do if you're Shine Ross in such a place? You face bedlam head on and keep living.

Fifteen-year old Shine Ross stumbles into intrigue every time he steps out of his house. So it seems. On a misty morning in 1968, he should have never gone to the railroad tracks searching for a prized, long-lost parrot. When Shine finds a body instead of the parrot, he steps into real trouble. The trumpet-playing prodigy and blatant day-dreamer in all of his high school classes definitely has no business trying to solve the mystery, not to mention pursuing a possible killer. Worse, he's at wits' end over his girlfriend's own crisis. In this stunningly original second novel in the Shine in Bedlam series, it can't get any more intense in the sleepy factory town. In the middle of it all, Shine just wants to survive the year.

***WARNING – In this fantasy series, Myla Lewis kicks ass, takes names, and sasses off. Often in that order.*** Years have passed since Myla Lewis last fought gladiator-style in Purgatory's Arena. Now, she’s fighting again, only this time in Hell. And the stakes have never been higher. The demon King of Hell, Armageddon, has kidnapped Myla and Lincoln’s young son, Maxon. In the wake of Maxon’s abduction, all the after-realms are calling for war, and no one shouts louder than Lincoln. Myla knows that a war against Hell will cost millions of lives, so she devises her own plan, involving a small attack team and a secret entrance to Hell. Will Myla save Maxon, or will her child--and all the after-realms--fall to Armageddon?

Born in a shabby tenement in Victorian London, young Tom Bedlam is employed stoking the furnaces in a massive porcelain factory; he is son to a father he has never met, and sibling to a baby who vanished at birth. But in spite of these disadvantages, he is a positive spirit, cunning in his pursuit of love, unflinchingly loyal to his friends, and possessed of a deep, passionate soul. More than anything, he wishes to bring the loose strands of his estranged family together. After Tom’s mother dies, a mysterious family benefactor appears who offers to pay for the boy’s education. For a factory urchin this is good luck indeed, and Tom is whisked away to an exclusive private boarding school called Hammer Hall. The school is a crucible of variously privileged, predatory, meek, and noble boys, and although Tom gathers crucial clues there about his lost brother, he finds himself caught between warring forces and makes a Faustian pact that will haunt his adult life. As Tom becomes a man, his quest assumes grander proportions, a search for his lost innocence but an attempt to create the family he dreamed of in childhood. His experiences will challenge his decency and force him to weigh his character against the pitfalls of loyalty, patriotism, love, and familial duty. Tom Bedlam shows how small deeds in childhood can resonate for a lifetime, and how the bonds of family ultimately prevail against the devastating march of progress and human folly. Most of all, it is a journey with a good friend. Charming, whimsical, passionate, and funny–there’s no better companion than Tom Bedlam.
