"How would posterity and the youth of Britain remember my men who had died in such a desperate battle? UNLESS they were told the story, they would have nothing to remember," states Rear Admiral G.W.G. Simpson CB, CBE Captain of the Fighting Tenth Flotilla Malta, G.C. 1941-1943. With this in mind, author John L.D. Barnett pens a tribute to the men of the sea in his newly published book through Xlibris, The Sea is My Grave. Rich with mementos and photographs, this book is a tribute to Bill Barnett and all the wartime officers and men of the Royal Navy Submarine Service, who through their courage and determination, often suffered under atrocious conditions, fought against evil and for the freedom of Great Britain. It tells the story of Bill's life and all that he'd seen, sailing the seas, on a British submarine. Readers will follow him as he cast his fate to the wind, and let his spirit roam free, fighting for freedom on the open sea. Appealing to family and friends of wartime naval officers, The Sea is My Grave is a tale of battles fought hard, and brave shipmates lost, all through World War II.

From Catriona McPherson, the Agatha-Award winning author of Quiet Neighbors, comes a clever, spine-tingling standalone Gothic thriller. “Go to My Grave is both a classic ‘country house mystery’ and a thriller. Atmospheric, with mind-bending twists, a narrator who may or may not be reliable, and an ending that will take your breath away and leave you astonished.” —Louise Penny Donna Weaver has put everything she has into restoring The Breakers, an old bed and breakfast on a remote stretch of beach in Galloway. Now it sits waiting—freshly painted, richly furnished, filled with flowers—for the first guests to arrive. But Donna's guests, a contentious group of estranged cousins, soon realize that they’ve been here before, years ago. Decades have passed, but that night still haunts them: a sixteenth birthday party that started with peach schnapps and ended with a girl walking into the sea. Each of them had made a vow of silence: “lock it in a box, stitch my lips, and go to my grave.” But now someone has broken the pact. Amid the home-baked scones and lavish rooms, someone is playing games, locking boxes, stitching lips. And before the weekend is over, at least one of them will go to their grave.

But a darkness exists at the outer edges of Daisy’s mind and she has no idea why it’s there. In a series of reoccurring nightmares she wanders a cemetery, eventually finding her own gravestone. According to the dream, December 2nd, 1955 is the day she died. Street smart but honorable, Stevens Pinata is a man with his own mysteries. An orphan left on a church doorstep as a child, he isn’t even certain of his ethnicity, let alone his goals in life. As a private investigator he works with bail bonds and quick shakedowns. But when a pretty young woman like Daisy Harker comes into his office with a crazy request to “find her lost day” he is intrigued. He is too decent to take advantage of a crazy woman, but Mr. Harker is a wealthy man and who is Pinata to turn down money? What unfolds is a masterpiece of suspense and one of the books that forever changed the domestic thriller. Millar’s razor sharp prose cuts a masterful plot and slashes at the racism, sexism, and entitlement endemic to an era otherwise celebrated for its prosperity.

Henry and Elizabeth Goddard lived in a beautiful castle overlooking the sea. Elizabeth and Henry were so in love with each other. They were inseparable, they always did things together. It seemed they had it all, until one day when Henry's maid came into his study and locked the door behind her. Catherine was her name and she had the most beautiful blue eyes and blonde hair of any woman around. Catherine had her eyes on Henry for quite some time. She couldn't control her feelings anymore and decided now was the time. Catherine approached the back of Henry's chair and put her hands on his shoulders, squeezing them ever so lightly. Catherine's touch would make any man's heart melt. She said, "Henry, you need to relax more often and not be so absorbed in your work. I can give you what you need anytime you want. Catherine bent over and blew in his ear and whispered, "Henry you know you need me as much as I need you," said Catherine. "Henry, you and Elizabeth's passion has run dry and I know you are a very lonely man. Let me be the one to bring that passion back into your life," said Catherine. Catherine and Henry engaged in a romantic affair that lasted many months until Henry's wife noticed that in the middle of the night, Henry would slip out of their bed and leave to meet his lover, Catherine down in the family crypt where their noises wouldn't be heard echoing throughout the castle. Catherine started getting suspicious and curious as to where Henry was going in the middle of the night. Instead of asking him where he was going in the middle of the night, Elizabeth decided she would pretend she was asleep and follow her husband to see what he was up to. Elizabeth let Henry get down the hall to the top of the stairs. Then Elizabeth quietly got out of bed and softly walked down to the foot of the stairs and watched Henry open the door that led down to the family crypt. Elizabeth watched with tears rolling down her cheeks as Catherine and her husband embraced and kissed. Elizabeth decided that instead of confronting the two lovers, she had something up her sleeve to get them back.
