Young John Holtz returns to Donny’s Bluff to continue what he had begun the prior year. His sawmill was up and running, but he was running out of raw materials. With the help of his new friend and adopted father, Jim Byrne, John expands to a full-blown furniture factory after discovering another drug ring in town. John’s involvement in the town improves the lives of many he comes in contact with but proves to be disaster for those who are users of people and who are mean-spirited. Follow the exploits of John Holtz as he becomes entwined in the lives of the people he has learned to love in Donny’s Bluff.
This is the third and last book in the John Holtz Trilogy. John finally grows up in more than wealth, wit and wisdom. He tries two social experiments pretending to be broken down on his motorcycle in ice and snow storms pretending to be without funds to fix his bike to see who will take him in. His ultimate goal is to attain some idea of what it is like to be homeless. He is taken in first by and Amish family that he lives with for six weeks. His second adventure is with a struggling Black family in Northern Arkansas. There he discovers a corrupt town he must tame before he moves on. Follow John as he lives out his Christian faith as a young Catholic with a Pentecostal mentor and influenced by two giants of the faith, Billy Graham and Mother Teresa.
John Holtz was one of those uk-oh babies born to midforties parents. His mother considered an abortion, but his sister Nancy, a devout Catholic, nixed that. Nancy encouraged her parent to engage an au pair from Germany when John was four years old. That turned out to be a godsend. John graduated from high school at age twelve and prepared to enter college. Assisting his sister in working on a PhD from Harvard, their lives entwine with a Smoky Mountain family in North Carolina while doing research there. Johns brilliant mind causes him to be arrested at ten years old; he becomes a sawmill owner at twelve and almost loses his life when his adult actions help break up a drug ring. John Holtz never had the luxury of being a child.
A New York Times Editors' Choice A Washington Independent Review of Books Favorite Book of 2021 A writer’s humorous and often-heartbreaking tale of losing his sight—and how he hid it from the world. At age sixteen, James Tate Hill was diagnosed with Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy, a condition that left him legally blind. When high-school friends stopped calling and a disability counselor advised him to aim for C’s in his classes, he tried to escape the stigma by pretending he could still see. In this unfailingly candid yet humorous memoir, Hill discloses the tricks he employed to pass for sighted, from displaying shelves of paperbacks he read on tape to arriving early on first dates so women would have to find him. He risked his life every time he crossed a street, doing his best to listen for approaching cars. A good memory and pop culture obsessions like Tom Cruise, Prince, and all things 1980s allowed him to steer conversations toward common experiences. For fifteen years, Hill hid his blindness from friends, colleagues, and lovers, even convincing himself that if he stared long enough, his blurry peripheral vision would bring the world into focus. At thirty, faced with a stalled writing career, a crumbling marriage, and a growing fear of leaving his apartment, he began to wonder if there was a better way.

A wonderful escape!" -Adriana Trigiani Best selling author of Big Stone Gap, Lucia, Lucia and Rococo "Hotheaded Saints is layered and revealing, dark and hopeful at the same time. Taylor Barton has drawn a compelling and fascinating portrait of the underbelly of the Hamptons and the interior life of a woman in search of redemption in it." -Rosanne Cash Singer, Songwriter, Author of Bodies of Water and Penelope Jane "Taylor Barton's exceptional debut novel explores, in stunning prose, the cutthroat and catty world of artist rivalry and family wreckage caused by drug-induced insanity. Although Hotheaded Saints is fraught with a myriad of inner and outer demons, at its core lies a transformative faith in the healing powers of destiny." -Martine Bellen Author of Vulnerability of Order Hotheaded Saints is a fiery, rip-roaring ride through the overwrought Hamptons; a kaleidoscope of the Bonnackers verses the A-listers.

After a tumultuous beginning, mid-23rd-century Earth now peacefully operates under the constant surveillance of the Watcher, an all-seeing AI who has seized control of the planet—and of the minds and bodies of its people. But is the radical evolution that the Watcher has in mind a step forward or the beginning of a mighty split that will cast aside everything that truly makes us human? It is 2252, and Judy is traveling on a passenger ship in deep space when disaster strikes. Almost too conveniently, strange machines appear onboard just in time to help. They are owned by DIANA, a commercial organization headquartered on Earth. But as the machines arrange for the humans to be taken to safety, Judy is held back. They have detected something in her genetic code—something shocking: Judy is not human. And she too is the property of DIANA. Now Judy must return to Earth to find out what DIANA expects of her . . . how she was grown . . . and why she was destined to destroy the Watcher. But is this Judy even the same person? And does the new Judy have a reason to destroy—or is she just a pawn in someone else’s murderous game?
'Her best yet... Andrea conjures up a phenomenal sense of place. She is such an assured, stylish writer and The Body Falls is remarkably gripping' Jo Spain April in Florida and Ben O'Keeffe is enjoying balmy temperatures, working the last few days of a six-month stint with her old law firm. A week later she returns to Glendara, Inishowen where a charity cycle race is taking place. But it starts to rain, causing the cyclists to postpone the start of their event and stay overnight in the town. But the rain doesn't stop; it increases to become relentless, torrential. In the middle of the night Sergeant Tom Molloy is called out to Mamore Gap, where a body, dislodged from a high bank by the heavy rain, has fallen onto the vet's jeep. It is identified as Bob Jameson, a well-known local charities boss, and the organiser of the cycling event. Stunned, the GP confirms that the man has suffered a snakebite. Terrible weather persists and soon bridges are down and roads are impassable. Glendara is completely cut off, with a killer at the heart of the community. Who is responsible for Bob Jameson's death? One of the strangers in town or someone closer to home? It's left to Molloy, with Ben's assistance, to find out what is going on.
