This is a delicious murder mystery in which we are introduced to Jeremy Wadlington-Smythe, a newcomer to the wonderful world of the whodunnit. In this novel, the first of the series, Jeremy, an accomplished orchestral conductor with a unique view of his mission, accepts an engagement to lead a major American symphony orchestra only to find himself in the midst of murder and mayhem. Jeremy is recruited by the president of the board of a major American symphony orchestra because of his unorthodox approach to the business of orchestral music making. He is simultaneously a very successful conductor with a much larger than typical following, and mistrusted by the administrators of the orchestras he conducts because his approach is in direct contradiction to the by now century old paradigm in which they are floundering. The mystery evolves seamlessly from this background, and the musical polemic and evolution of the story are intertwined. In the end, Jeremy solves the mystery in a manner which will leave the reader as surprised as those to whom Jeremy addresses his summary. This is a book that will delight mystery lovers with a complex plot and an entertaining cast of characters, many of whom will return in further mystery novels in the Jeremy Smythe series. Jeremy is a foodie and he's funny. Detective Lieutenant Max Mollery Plays Inspector Jaap to Jeremy's Poirot, but is smarter. Joely Tresser is the female lead, a woman of keen intelligence and exceptional beauty. The background of the story is the financially crumbling world of the symphony orchestra in the USA, though it is relevant to the plight of orchestras the world over.

Blue Christmas: The Holidays for the Rest of Us

The past is simply part of our story; just not the whole story...On the very day that Nancy Sharp delivered premature twins, she learned that her husband's brain cancer returned after eighteen months in remission. Less than three years later, at the age of 37, she became a widow. But while many in that situation would crumble, Nancy had an innate ability to hold life and death in the same moment. She learned to "see beyond the frame's edge." In BOTH SIDES NOW: A True Story of Love, Loss, and Bold Living, Nancy shares her unforgettable journey - one that offers enlightened understanding for living life to the fullest. Her story is a gift to those looking to lift themselves from the embers of loss and adversity through bold living. Seeking the solace of the Rocky Mountains and a fresh start, Nancy packs up her five year-old twins and leaves Manhattan for Denver, never imagining that she would find love in the pages of a magazine. But after reading an article on eligible bachelors, Nancy sends an email to Steve Saunders, a popular Denver television anchor turned political candidate as well as a widower who'd lost his wife to cancer, and was raising two sons a decade older than Nancy's twins. Today they have been married for six years. BOTH SIDES NOW is the recipient of seven literary honors: First Book Finalist for Books For A Better Life; USA BEST BOOK Finalist; National Indie Excellence Award; Readers' Favorite International Book Award; Living Now Book Award; American Book Fest International Book Award; and a CIPA EVVY. Conversations Book Club with Cyrus Webb also named BOTH SIDES NOW as a top 50 nonfiction read of 2014. In BOTH SIDES NOW, Nancy explores: · What it was like for her to learn her husband's cancer had returned on the same day she delivered premature twins · Coping with his long illness and the unexpected beauty surrounding his death · What gave her the courage to move from NYC to Denver with young twins to start a new life · How she literally plucked her new husband, Steve, from the pages of a magazine · What it really means to hold the past, present, and future at the same time · How we comes to own our stories without letting them define us· A compelling snapshot of BOLD Living

Written on the eve of America’s entry into World War II, this remarkable Letter From a Young Poet discloses a young Jewish American man’s spiritual and literary odyssey through rural Connecticut and urban Brooklyn during the turbulent 1930s. In a finely wrought first-person narrative, young Plutzik tells his mentor, what it means for a poet to live an authentic life in the modern world. Like Joyce and Rilke before him, Plutzik ultimately strikes out on a path that can be blessed both by his literary muses and by his ancestral voices. Letter From a Young Poet can be described as an early example of Holocaust literature for the way Plutzik challenges the growing menace of Nazism that he views looming from afar.
