Overlay - A Tale of One Girl's Life in 1970s Las Vegas
(Memoirs of Marlayna Glynn Brown)
by Marlayna Glynn Brown
-- Fans of The Glass Castle and Angela's Ashes will appreciate this extraordinary tale of survival and resilience recorded in spare and convincing prose. Written from a child's point of view from ages 4 to 17, this tale describes the turbulent childhood of the author in 1970s Las Vegas.
The desert perimeter serves as a hot, dry and dangerous barrier that shuts out the rest of the vibrant world and bleaches away any sense of the joy that colors childhoods. Born into an ongoing cycle of alcoholism and abandonment amidst fallen adults, Marlayna develops a powerful sense of self-preservation in contrast to the people entrusted with her care. Her story explores the personalities of the bizarre characters who populate her life as she moves from home to home, parent to parent, family to family and ultimately to homelessness at the age of fourteen.
Out of the resources of her remarkable childhood emerges an inner strength that will charm and captivate readers and remain in their consciousness long after the last page of her story has been turned.
Length: 330 pages

Festival in the Desert (Military Orders)
by Martin Roth
-- West Africa and the Sahara Desert – where the Muslim north meets the Christian south. Where drought, famine and poverty meet drug-runners, terrorists and Muslim extremists.
Captain John Fisker, a US military officer working to strengthen the forces of moderate Islam in the region, is kidnapped by terrorists. At the same time extremists are threatening the Christian mission hospital where John’s brother Bobby works as a doctor.
It is time to call for the New Mercedarians, the clandestine military order dedicated to fighting for Christians under attack around the world. Operatives Brother Half Angel and Brother Luiz fly urgently to West Africa.
Add to the mix a Korean holy man who communes with God at the summit of a sacred mountain, a crazed Russian drugs courier, a young American studying to be a Sufi mystic and a CIA officer on the run from his own superiors, and you have the exciting new book in Martin Roth’s acclaimed Military Orders series.

The Triumphs and Travails of Talisman Turner:a Romantic Comedy for Women Who Need a Chuckle After a Long Day of Work (or Shopping)
by Cinda Fernando
-- Talisman Turner has just been dumped. It's not her. It's not the guy. It's the Red Sox.
Tali's ex-boyfriend believes that sacrificing their relationship will reverse the curse plaguing his beloved baseball team. Tali's determined to reverse a curse too--the one haunting her sorry love life. And she's betting on the psychological theories she studied in college to do it.
Like the MHC theory of attraction which links sexual chemistry to immune-response-coding genes and a person's unique scent...as well as the facial feedback hypothesis which states that smiling in the mirror should make people feel happier because it increases the flow of air-cooled blood to the brain.
The facial feedback hypothesis doesn't work any magic -- but a new job and a new romantic prospect do. Graham Salisbury, a British restaurant owner, seems to be Tali's perfect counterpart -- immunologically and in all other ways.
But falling in love is not a science... and Tali's path to relationship bliss is anything but smooth...
