A mysterious group of killers-the Wolves-terrorize the nation. No one knows where they came from or why they murder thousands of innocent civilians. Resi Kepler is a nurse who cares for those injured in the attacks. The Wolves left her without parents, famously taking them as their first victims. When Resi is knocked out during an attack, she discovers a startling ability. She sees the memories of dead Wolf victims in her sleep. Which is insane. And a little awkward considering the number of people dropping dead around her lately. She taps into her favorite defense mechanism: avoidance. She ignores it; acts like it's not happening. If she doesn't acknowledge it, it can't be real. Right? But another person she loves is taken. So, Resi accepts the insanity and dives into the memories of the dead to find the Wolves, save her friend, and avenge her parents. As Resi gets closer to uncovering the mysteries surrounding the Wolves, however, she finds herself undeniably connected to them. She begins to wonder if the killing sprees are really all that bad. In fact, if she stops the terrorists, she thinks more people may die. Is Resi being brainwashed? Are the killings justified? Will she find out why she has this creepy gift? Is she really the one endangering the nation by attempting to disarm the Wolves? ***A new thriller/suspense novel. This action-packed book is simultaneously dark and disturbing, yet fun and comedic. It is sure to keep you glued to every last page!*** ***Editorial Review*** "The Afterthoughts is a truly one of a kind supernatural thriller. Resi Kepler is shocked and outraged by the violence of a domestic terrorist group known as The Wolves. Their violence seems to know no limits as they target men, women, children, and most noteworthy - the hospital. In the midst of violence, something else is happening... One night, Resi has a peculiar dream, as if she is watching first-person memories. The dreams become a startling reality when Resi realizes that the person whose memories she was seeing is dead. "A gripping page-turner, The Afterthoughts will keep you wanting more. Author Rene Fenner skillfully crafts action, suspense, and raw emotion with each word. Vivid characters and exceptional dialogue will envelope you in the story and send your imagination running wild. Rene Fenner is a master of storytelling. You have never read a book like The Afterthoughts and never will again!" - The Lost Chapter Book Review

In the middle of nowhere, amidst the endless blackness of a forever night, there is a train. Ordinarily it speeds along in the empty darkness. As much as a train can speed along, when it has no track to speed upon and no landscape to speed through. Motion, like time, reason and destination, is an affectation here. An unnamed narrator wakes suddenly to find himself in the compartment of a train he cannot remember boarding. His fellow passengers are both strange and familiar. Together, they must work out the truth of their situation. Are they memories of long, forgotten souls, or something else? And what links them through the mists of time. They are the afterthoughts, trapped in their past, searching for a future.

It offers the most intimate look at Charlotte Mason from those who knew and loved her best. As you read their touching words, you will come to appreciate the tremendous impact of this gifted woman whose philosophy and method of self-education transformed generations of teachers, parents and students-not only in her life but in her death, as well.

The Breakfast Club meets We Need to Talk About Kevin A lockdown catches five grade 12 students by surprise and throws them together in the only unlocked room on that empty third floor wing: the boys' washroom.

"This is a book I would readily recommend to any performer, teacher, student, or lover of the piano," says pianist and composer John Musto. Pianist and professor Lisa Yui writes, "Donald Isler's collection of articles and interviews are delightful! They are written in the charming and breezy style of Huneker, Loesser, and Hough (three of the most esteemed writers on the piano and pianists), but underneath lies a depth of knowledge and experience. The interviews are informative and observant, the articles witty and self-reflective. Each is fascinating, informative, enlightening-in short, a wonderful read!" According to Jerome Lowenthal, professor at the Juilliard School and one of the most renowned pianists of his generation, "If there was a golden age of pianophilia, it is nobly continued today by pianist-journalists like Donald Isler." Author Donald Isler reflects on more than fifty years' experience teaching, attending concerts, and living a professional life dedicated to music. Though the responsibilities of being a true artist or a good teacher are taken seriously, there are also many lighthearted and amusing stories. The thirty-five essays that comprise Part I of the book include provocative titles, such as "Up from Mediocrity," "In Praise of Rule Breakers," "Do I Keep an Open Mind," plus articles about great musicians Isler heard, knew personally, or studied with. The thirty-one interviews that make up Part II followed in-depth conversations with each subject. They reveal much about the lives and careers of great artists of the older generation, such as Gary Graffman and Ruth Slenczynska, several child prodigies and many distinguished musicians in-between, as well as two acclaimed radio personalities, one impresario who has devoted her life to developing the careers of many important musicians-and Dr. Ruth Westheimer, the sex therapist, who speaks about the music in her life!
