When hotshot litigator Aaron Anders' wife, Suzanne, goes looking for a divorce attorney, every lawyer in town turns her down. Except one. What was Camelia Belmont thinking? Desperate to make partner, Camelia takes Suzanne's case, despite Aaron's notorious scorched earth tactics. But when another high profile client kills himself, and her chances of making partner fizzle, Camelia barely manages to hold her anxiety and the vodka bottle at bay. To complicate matters, Suzanne's health is failing, and all she wants is to die divorced. But the Paradise Valley socialite's life gets complicated when sexy senior associate Kaitlyn Fischer is killed on her way to a midnight tryst ... in Suzanne's car.

Camelia's boss, criminal defense attorney Byron McCaffrey, doesn't want any part of it, but when she discovers a link to a product liability case Anders won on appeal, Camelia is convinced the "accident" was intended for Suzanne. But she'll have to come up with more than circumstantial evidence against Aaron Anders, especially since the cops and the prosecutor's office decide the case was accidental. Camelia can't help but defy Byron's demand to leave the criminal investigation alone, even if it means getting fired.. All Suzanne wants is a divorce, but her clock is ticking. Finally, Camelia gets a break from an unlikely ally, but is it too late? Can she discover what really happened or will someone get away with murder?

If you like soft-boiled whodunnits with a smart female sleuth, true-to-life characters, and dark insights into the legal profession, you'll love PJ Donison's second literary mystery in the series.

This true story begins with a mothers terrifying dream that foretold the accidental death of her adult son. She continued to have subtle premonitions that she didnt understand until it was too late. When her son died as the dream predicted, she was riddled with guilt at not having been able to save him. These premonitions raised tormenting questions about their source, purpose, and meaning. They propelled her on a journey through grief that followed every path from scientific theories to psychic communications with the spirit world. It was a lonely quest in a culture impatient with grief and dismissive of premonitions. In the end, it was through writing her story that she found healing. A cross still remains at the T-intersection of two county roads, still reminding passers-by of the vibrant young life that was snuffed out one summer day long ago. We often notice these small white crosses along roadways as we speed by. Draped with wilted flowers and faded ribbons, they stand in mute testimony to tragedies we try to ignore. They remind us that life can end in an instant.

Thinkers and activists from many orientations and traditions are now coming together to explore ways to reconstitute rites of passage as a form of community healing for our public and personal ills. Crossroads is a comprehensive collection of over fifty cutting-edge writings on diverse aspects of the transition to adulthood. "In no uncertain terms, Crossroads opens our eyes to our responsibility to the adolescents who are now growing up without sacred rituals and hence without knowledge of spiritual roots in their culture. Many of the writers have first-hand experience and first-rate ideas of how to transform this cultural crisis. Crossroads also challenges us to integrate our own inner adolescent. Piercing insight with realistic hope " -- Marlon Woodman The Ravaged Bridegroom

The Way of the Cross is difficult. It tests the heart and mind. It chastises the will and the soul. It purifies the conscience and spirit. It is a brutal, long road that few venture down. Even those who venture to the Cross are tested when they arrive at the Cross. For the Cross is the Pillar of Truth. It is the crossroads that cross-examines the heart and calls us to die. For those of us who do not fear crucifixion, we shall receive a promised resurrection. The old self will be slaughtered and the new self will be put on. For the Cross is the way that leads from a sinful life to a sanctified life; a wretched heart to a purified heart; a corrupt soul to a holy soul; a wicked mind to a righteous mind. Only by the Cross of Christ can we be transformed into children of the Light. Only by the Cross can we die to all that is ungodly and be redeemed and restored into godly saints.
