Amy Prowers hadn't planned on jetting off to the Balkans. She hadn't planned on having her life turned upside down or being held hostage. No, Amy Prowers hadn't planned on abandoning her career... and becoming a seeker of fulfilling her father's last request. The request that had the words attached: be careful who you trust. Benton Prowers' death in a suspicious plane crash has changed Amy’s life. His words, “be careful who you trust,” lead her on a quest to uncover the real Shroud and if it isn't in Turin as the Catholic Church believes...where is it? In the second Amy Prowers novel, Amy is caught up in a web of deceit, scandal, and terror that threatens her and everyone around her. Will Medak, the young monk at the monastery, help Amy understand the clues her father hid in the icon book...or should she trust him? Will El Ben Alemien, the evil North African leader, know that Amy is pretending to know where the Shroud is hidden at the Gracanica Monastery? Will Christianity as it exists today, be able to survive when the truth comes out? In a sweeping current day global suspense thriller, The Last Request takes you behind the scenes in a tense drama-filled story that is enveloped in mystery, intrigue, and religion.

Lily Harford is nearing the end of her once joyful life - and for her, it can't come soon enough. Who will have the courage, kindness and love to grant her last request? A compassionate and heartfelt story for readers of Jodi Picoult, Tricia Stringer and Fiona Lowe. Knowing she is sliding into dementia, Lily Harford is ready to give up her life ... but can she persuade someone to commit the illegal act of taking it from her? Lily has lived a joyful, independent life in a seaside town in Queensland, running her own business and raising a daughter as a single mother at a time when few women did so. Now health and circumstance have pushed her into a nursing home, and her memory is failing, although events of the past remain fresh. Like pulling back the layers of a Russian doll, Lily recalls the former selves - mother, professional woman, lover, daughter - who still exist inside her. Lily's daughter, Pauline, has been pushed to her limits by her demanding job, as well as the needs of her mother, husband, daughter and grandchildren. And now her mother is begging to die. Nurse aide Donna, still recovering from a dysfunctional childhood and the demise of her marriage, finds comfort in Lily's kindness and down to earth wisdom. As Lily fades, she asks Donna, too, to help her end her life. A thought-provoking, vivid and moving exploration of how we value a life well lived, and the decisions we make when that life is coming to an end.

Sixty million dollars. Five potential heirs. One house in remote rural Alaska. It’s a recipe for murder . . . Summoned by letter, Holly Shaw and five of her cousins—virtual strangers to each other—have gathered at a grand house in the rugged wilds of Alaska. Equally unfamiliar to Holly is her great aunt Lydia, the woman who has called the family together and is dangling a massive inheritance before them. Her condition: they must remain in the house, with Lydia and her butler and caregiver, until she passes. Anyone not in residence at that time is out of the will, their share of the money split among the others. That night, everyone settles in. And the next morning, the murders begin . . . From Mustang Award finalist and 2022 Derringer Award nominee Brandon Barrows, this is a twisting, atmospheric mystery and an utterly compelling tale of guilt, greed, and temptation.

Jonathan waited. His friend near death. His life fueled by forgetfulness and isolation. He wanted nothing more than to go home. To watch the Brevington Knights face off against whatever foe dare challenge them. But he couldn't. For all that he'd lost over the years, Charles was the only person to remain. His friend gasped. Life slowly ebbing. A familiar pain creeping up his spine as Jonathan waited for the Reaper to claim one more victim. Instead, he heard a whisper. Leaning closer, Jonathan understood his friend's words. He wished he hadn't. He wished, in that moment, that he could have saved his friend's life instead of searching for another.

If you answered yes to any of those questions, I challenge you to read this book. I'm confident my book can help you fill that emptiness that is presently inside of you and give you a new outlook on life.
