As Good and Evil sit precariously weighing in the balance, swaying
back and forth with the whims and spirit of humanity, many continue
to ask: what is it that gives us purpose? Who truly matters in this
age of adversity? Are we coincidental masses of flesh and blood, or
were we put on this earth for a reason? Such impassable questions
have been debated, answered, reexamined, and refuted since the very
dawn of time. With the seemingly ever mounting confusion, it's easy
to see why many have simply given up the search. Ebenezer Makinde,
however, may be the exception. On December 9th, 2019, he sent a
request to Heaven for answers to the existential questions humans
have been asking for centuries. He wrote a note, sealed it away in
his desk, and left the uncertainty in another world's hands. On
December 31st, one day shy of the dawn of the new decade, someone
answered. Light of Darkness tells the story of a fateful
interaction between Ebenezer and two agents from opposing worlds,
one from Heaven and one from Hell. Realizing he's been entangled in
a cosmic plot putting the fate of humanity in his very own hands,
it soon becomes clear that the balance between light and darkness
has never reached a more critical point... will the world bask in
the light of redemption or be forever doomed to a never-ending
darkness? Ebenezer finds himself caught between the forces at work
in that dilemma; providing him access to information that will soon
be impacting all of humanity.

about a troubled Marine and a big-hearted Labrador who shows him
the power of love, loyalty, and truly living. A Marine's "Alive
Day" celebrates the survival after an almost certain death. It's a
time of hope and joy. But Antwone Carver isn't celebrating. Home
from war but not quite whole, Antwone's having trouble dealing with
his new physical limitations. Psychiatrist Brenden McCarthy can
relate. He thought he'd lost everything when he was blinded in a
mountain climbing accident. But with God's help, he's now living a
satisfying life and feels called to help Antwone do the same. The
problem is, he's hit one dead end after another trying to reach
this bitter young Marine. Enter Brenden's big-hearted and
courageous black Labrador, Nelson. With boundless energy,
contagious optimism, and a big heart, Nelson shows them both what
it means to live a truly abundant life. Praise for Alive Day:

Dogs have long been man's best friend, but the Bug Man's friends
is a rare breed . . . the cadaver dog.
All roads lead to the White House for John Henry Braden, the
charismatic senator from Virginia aristocracy whose beautiful wife
Victoria is the talk of Washington and the crown jewel of Endor,
her backwoods Virginia hometown.
But when bodies turn up on Braden's property--the site of a
multimillion dollar construction project he's spearheading--the
senator's spin doctors, led by his future first lady, must act
quickly to quell a conspiracy before it blemishes their
presidential campaign.
Enter entomologist Nick Polchak, the quirky bug expert enlisted
to determine if the senator's bone yard is a forgotten cemetery or
a crime scene.
To help with the investigation, Polchak follows local legend to
Alena Savard, a mysterious woman known for her ability to turn
mongrels into the best search dogs around. They soon find
themselves on the trail of a desperate individual bent on
protecting a terrible secret.
"Less than Dead" is an unforgettable tale of crime and
concealment in the corridors of high-stakes politics--as well as in
the deepest contours of the human heart.
