“Early in my working life I had discovered that salesmanship consisted not of providing people with what they needed, but with that was essential to their dreams. I was confident that our dining-room suite, complete with carpets, curtains and an artificial fireplace, would shortly be snapped up by people occupying oven-hot semis in the newer and, as yet, treeless, housing estates on the island. The possibility of winter is essential to the happiness of people living in the tropics.” Hernie Perera runs the furniture department in Benson’s, the largest store in Singapore. In his spare time, he writes stories. Suddenly, his comfortable life is shattered. His father is found to have terminal cancer, he loses his job, and his lover joins the ‘Children of the Book’, a Christian sect committed to overthrowing an oppressive government. An old acquaintance and government official promises Hernie literary success in exchange for information on the ‘Children of the Book’. He must now decide between the rewards of political corruption and his conscience. With passion and humour, A Candle or the Sun reveals a Singapore far different from the tourist brochures.
A memoir about the loss of a friend through a vehicular accident and the healing power of love.
“The most mature, sophisticated and sensitive Canadian novel I have read in years.” – Desmond Pacey “I have deliberately avoided any attempt to go into detail regarding the numerous incidents that lend to this narrative a continuous fascination but have left to readers a complete enjoyment of this intriguing work of fiction. Written with a frankness that is stamped with a sincerity as rare as it is convincing, I have found it a moving experience which I can recommend without reserve as a notable achievement by a Canadian writer.” – S. Morgan-Powell
A parable from "Conversations with God, Book 1", this book helps readers remember the angel within us all, as it gracefully explains spiritual concepts to children. Full color.
From New York Times bestselling author Kat Martin comes another thrilling story in The Raines of Wind Canyon series. It’s not in bodyguard Jake Cantrell’s job description to share his suspicions with his assignments. Beautiful executive Sage Dumont may be in charge, but Jake’s not on her payroll. As a former Special Forces marine, Jake trusts his gut, and it’s telling him there’s something off about a shipment arriving at Marine Drilling International. His instinct is aroused…in more ways than one. Drawn into a terrifying web of lies and deceit—and into feelings they can’t afford to explore—what Jake and Sage uncover may be frighteningly worse than they ever imagined. Originally published in 2012.
