Does a new dress have the power to change a woman's life?Thirty-five-year-old Waverley Litchfield, manager of vintage-inspired boutique, Right! A Dress, in Tasmania, is sure that it does:For fish-out-of-water journalist Holly, in the throes of an eating disorder that's seen her rapidly drop three dress sizes;For only child Vivian, who has no life - not now that she's been forced to take on full-time care of her elderly mother;For Fashions on the Field obsessed Tilly, whose biggest claim to fame so far has been falling off the catwalk and ending up in Accident and Emergency;For seriously overweight Raine, whose size is keeping her from being chief bridesmaid at her best friend's wedding;For forty-something Odette, fed up with sweating the small stuff until a brush with breast cancer puts everything into perspective;For young building apprentice Ashleigh, desperately in search of her 'tribe', andFor Sasha and Farelle, perilously close to losing everything to a runaway shopping habit and an all-consuming career.Singlehandedly, Waverley masterminds an ingenious fashion-inspired event that brings together all these women - and two men - and, incredibly, manages to change each of their lives for the better.But what about Waverley herself? Can a dress possibly cure her of the crippling flying phobia that's kept her trapped on her island home, able only to dream of Paris, the fashion capital of the world she has long yearned to visit? And how will it help her find love in the process?

SUFFERING AND THE THESIS OF PURGATORY: WITH PROPHETIC WARNINGS FOR OUR WORLD This book brings to life the Prophecies of Fatima and unfolds the Book of Revelation in the messages revealed by the Blessed Virgin Mary to the Victim Soul Iveta 'Cleophas' Fernandes. It reveals that great powers are given to the 'adversary' in these times and speaks of the Great Tribulation and of the Birth pangs of the Great Apostasy - the first being the 'diabolic pandemic', the second birth pang being the fall out of a diabolic nature - of which we are at the threshold! This book also contains prophetic messages of the impending Schism of the Catholic Church and of the Persecution that will befall to purify the Church before the promised Era of peace!In revealing the spiritual battle that we are currently engaged in, the messages contained in this book give us a spiritual roadmap for the times ahead and calls for the proclamation of the fifth Marian Dogma: 'Mary, Mediatrix of All Grace, Co-Redemptrix and Advocate'.The first part of this book outlines the profound value of suffering when this suffering is united to the Passion of Our Lord Jesus, through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, the Mother of God. The second part reveals precious insights into the realms of Purgatory, of Souls serving Divine Justice and of the process required to attain their Crown of Glory!Readers are advised to exercise spiritual discernment as some of these prophecies and warnings to be fulfilled soon are quite disturbing! Some of their consequences can be mitigated if we choose to pray, offer up our suffering and convert!

In an Australian country town in the mid-1960s, a couple of adolescent boys are busy experimenting with incendiary devices while their town, including their school, is suffering a series of arson attacks. Are the boys responsible? At least, in part? Or is there something larger afoot? And how did it all go so dreadfully wrong? Meanwhile, in a small city not far away, another group of boys, somehow connected to those in the other place, get up to their own mischief playing with fire. This, too, with a whiff of the infernal, goes badly. The interlocking stories of Playing with Mischief are an exercise in smoke and mirrors. Along with real smoke, of which there is plenty, the stories are infused with a figurative smoke that obscures who is responsible for what. As to mirrors, consider the manner in which the diverse perspectives of these stories reflect back through one another. And then, beyond such obvious references, we should consider fiction's overarching artifice, in which Willis saw an affinity to the legerdemain of fairground magicians, the archetypical practitioners of smoke and mirrors.Playing with Mischief (the title itself suggests an alternative: Playing with Fire) is also an exercise in stylistic variation. The paired novellas, Mischief and The Fires, third and first person narratives respectively, are bookended by the shorter pieces, Invocation and The Exercise Book, distinctly at opposite ends of the stylistic spectrum. These different, to some extent contending voices enhance the basic mirroring effect between the competing narratives. Or, to shift the metaphor, they create a space in which whispered implications echo.An invocation of a world gone by, a world in which ghosts still wandered foggy streets and sometimes it was better to consult a priest than a doctor. An Australian country town in the mid-1960s. Teenage boys playing with guns and gunpowder. A series of suspicious fires. Where the fuse led was clear, but who struck the match was not so evident. Afterword by Josephine Tey.

Overcoming hardship is where the intrigue comes from for a good story to be written or read. This book explores the challenges and achievements that make a person who they are as a leader. The experiences that are explored in this book are the ones that were most critical to the development of the leader. You are the leader. We are all leaders, trust me.Leadership is getting people to the point where they do what you want them to do, to achieve an objective but as if it was by their own initiative or a shared understanding.Management is the law, the parameters and the structures that keep the team in the right lane.The concept of this book is to define the impact of a leader, their influence, their decisions, and their effects, along with the ideology that 'with great power comes great responsibility.'This book is designed to help you. To draw from the exploration of events throughout history that have helped to depict decisions made and why they were made. To give you an appreciation of what processes a leader uses and how you can learn to become a better leader. Hindsight gives us perspective. What must be considered is that situations change. Nothing worth having is easy and the way in which we change who we are for the better is key. Steel is forged in fire.

The Leader: The Mortar that defines the Leader

Niven, Gregory Philip

Gritty and unflinching morsels of crime fiction rage across these pages. There's nothing warm and cosy here, but then that's not the reality of policing: cops deal with the darkest aspects of humanity and then have to live with that exposure. Some of those cops become writers. When crime fiction is penned by authors who have worked and risked their lives as cops at the coalface, the stories that emerge deliver exquisite realism and brutally honest emotions. The fifteen authors featured in this first-of-its-kind anthology have variously worn their uniforms and carried their badges across law enforcement in the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia, as they have served and protected their communities. These short stories are as varied and vivid as the hard-earned experiences of their creators. The settings include the past, the present, and the future. The plots have murder aplenty, corruption, drugs, paedophilia, mental health, and suicide. The line-up of protagonists includes uniformed officers, detectives, and criminals, amongst others. The actions, the observations, the reminiscing, and the self-reflection of these fictional characters bring the reality of the police experience alive on the page. It is those brushstrokes of daily police life that bring a special and unique flavour to this assortment of crime fiction.
