Somewhere in the darkness the Tiger waits, ready to strike . . . Abandoning her comfortable American life, Stefanie Peng sets out for China on a desperate quest to rescue her grandfather, a pastor in the underground church. Her quest sends her to labor camps, secret church meetings, and even prison, bringing her face to face with the value of her freedom and the cost so many pay for their faith. Little does she know that a Chinese master spy, the Beijing Tiger, stalks her every move, clawing for leverage over her father, a world-renowned physicist, and setting a trap for the leaders of the Chinese church. Only the courage of the enigmatic man who loves her can save her. A gripping account of a Chinese government conspiracy to annihilate the Chinese church and bring America to her knees. "From its chillingly realistic beginning Tiger in the Shadows grips readers to its pages as it races to its dramatic and decisive conclusion." --Christian Monitor "This book is well written and a fascinating story. I would have
enjoyed it more had I known that it was not based on true events!"
--Cindy Morris "Debbie Wilson took accurate research and combined it with her
wonderful creative gift of writing to produce a novel that is both
entertaining and enlightening. May God use this book to continue to
keep this issue before the 'free church' in America and to stir us
to do all we can to 'Remember those in chains.'" --Darcie

Twenty-two years had passed since Kathy, a sophmore in college and a girl dedicated to living for her God, was brutally killed in her small college town. Twenty-two years of silent holidays and hidden family portraits kept the painful past under control, until Debbie Wilson ascended into the attic of her parents home on a secret quest to uncover the truth of her sister's unsolved murder and bring her killer to justice. Wilson could never have imagined how the triumphs and trials of her pursuit would force her to test her faith in God, belief in justice, and duty to forgive. Sweet Scent of Justice is a true crime memoir by a sister who experienced the miraculous ways God works in the lives of His children when they need His guidance the most. It offers hope and encouragement for those experiencing trials and tribulations in their lives. Wilson's personal tragedy strengthened her faith and belief in Christ, and it will strengthen yours too.
Brushing Away the Tears paints a portrait of a life lived with and taken by AIDS. It is the true story of Christopher Colts journey through HIV/AIDS, and it is told in his own words, through his journals and letters, and through the journals and letters of his mother. The entries begin in 1989 when Christopher was diagnosed with HIV and ends a few months before his death in 1992 at age 39. A budding artist, Christopher details the heartbreaking fear of knowing that his time is limited and that his life is more than likely coming to an end. The footnote narrative is provided by Christophers sister, Debbie Wilson, who holds a BA in journalism. The subject of AIDS has been written about numerous times from a medical standpoint, but few times from the victims view. Brushing Away the Tears, written in these firsthand accounts, stimulates the curiosity of those who wish to probe the very personal side of coping with a terminal illness. Christopher was a radiant star whose spirit lives on through his art and whose story will inspire others to live like you are dying. This book speaks to the social stigma of AIDS without preaching or malice and seeks to put a face on AIDS. The face is that of a man in the prime of his life, someone who is loved by his family and who has friends and colleagues. His story is tragic, but in the midst of the narrative of terrible physical pain and tremendous fear, there is humor in the writing and in the business of everyday living. The title Brushing Away the Tears is derived from Christophers passion as an artist. Every life is painted with the artistic hand of God, and Christophers life was no different. He just lived his life differently, and sometimes difference is good, especially if that difference is family and love.
