The word "courage" is not in Paige Brookhart's vocabulary. Years of abuse have taught her that it is better to hide than to fight. When her husband's abuse turns murderous, terror forces her to flee. Desperate, she accepts help at a women's shelter in Denver, intending to start over. But the echoes of abuse that whisper in her heart saying, "you can't trust anyone including yourself," and "love hurts," continue to thwart her attempts at creating a new life. As she overcomes one obstacle after another, she discovers an untapped well of courage, and learns of a new, unexpected source of love and hope. When her husband tracks her down, intent on killing her and her daughters, Paige must put into action what she has learned. Unfortunately only time will tell how well she has learned these new lessons - and time is the one thing she doesn't have.

MARLOW, GLORIA DAVIDSON

Crestwell tells you things youll never hear preached in a church! He confronts the major tenets of the Christian faith and boldly shows that much of what we believe is based on mythology. The author writes that peace will never manifest until we raise our level of consciousness and allow Gods spirit to permeate every aspect of our existence. Crestwell is radical in saying that some of the things cherished and revered religiously may not be, historically and factually, what we think they are, and systematically proves his thesis. The author tackles difficult questions with refreshing insights and shows us his deep and sincere faith in God and love for humanity.

Conquering Son is a deeply moving tale of parental indifference, child abuse, adultery, and revenge. Harold Hawkins, age 12 in 1942, is sent to a military school where homoeroticism, shame, and toughness become troubling constants in his life. Southern Maryland and Harold’s family’s summer resort, much like Marthas Vineyard, serve as background for his sexual conflicts and obsessions. As an older man, events propel him toward a resolution of his failures involving a black girl he knew in 1947 and years of shyness, evasion, and torment. Closure arrives as Harold conquers the image of his remote and indiscreet father and overcomes his own cowardice. A loving woman accompanies Harold on his quest to set straight so much that had been bent into untoward journeys and distress. Ironically, what had to be done was indeed done, but did Harold Hawkins really conquer anything, and what did it all mean?
