The Dark Rose


Book Description

"A stunning look at human desperation, loyalty, and absolute terror" (Suspense Magazine) from the acclaimed author of The Poison Tree When Erin Kelly burst onto the scene with The Poison Tree, readers were left breathless and hungry for more.

A story of secrets and guilt, The Dark Rose is a mesmerizing follow-up that's every bit as chilling and atmospheric as her acclaimed debut. Nineteen-year-old Paul sits in a stark interrogation room across from two police officers. What started as petty theft turned into murder; only terror and loyalty keep him silent. Louisa spends her days roaming a crumbling Elizabethan garden—until she meets Paul, who is a dead ringer for her long-lost love. Louisa starts to hope she can find happiness again, but neither of them can outrun his violent past.

Dark Rose


Book Description

High praise for Steve Farrell’s Dark Rose “An inspirational story about one woman’s lonely journey through bitterness, hate and despair to faith, love and hope; one boy’s voyage through panic and peril to sympathy and service; one drunk-driver’s arduous ascent through uselessness and justice to redemption and mercy and one father’s inspired insight and influence pointing the way, but can he walk the walk? Destined to be a timeless classic, Dark Rose will touch the heart and brings hope to all who read it.” —The Editors, NewsMax.com “An enchanting story of faith and family that is as enlightening as it is encouraging.” —Jon Dougherty, World Net Daily “A modern version of the 'morality play,' Steve Farrell's writing style is reminiscent of the 19th century literary form which was best expressed by writers like Charles Dickens and other classic writers of that era—a style of writing which has, more or less, disappeared in this country. Interesting and refreshing!" —Dr. Jon Dolhenty, President, Center for Applied Philosophy “Dark Rose is a simple story offering an incredible amount of depth...bursting with lessons in faith, forgiveness and family...it is a modern classic that will be enjoyed and passed along to friends and family for years to come.” —Shane Cory – Editor, The Washington Dispatch “Dark Rose is a story of faith and hope from a writer known for his Biblically based political and social commentary...Steve Farrell carefully crafts a love story that communicates spiritual truths to the reader.” —W. James Antle III, Senior Editor, Enter Stage Right "The most riveting, thought provoking book I've read in years." —Jeffrey Bennett, talk show host, World Wide Christian Radio




Dark Horse


Book Description

For generations, we've been stuck with a cookie-cutter mold for success that requires us to be the same as everyone else, only better. This "standard formula" works for some people but leaves most of us feeling disengaged and frustrated. As much as we might dislike the standard formula, it seems like there's no other practical path to financial security and a fulfilling life. But what if there is? In the Dark Horse Project at the Harvard Graduate School of Education, bestselling author and acclaimed thought leader Todd Rose and neuroscientist Ogi Ogas studied women and men who achieved impressive success even though nobody saw them coming. Dark horses blaze their own trail to a life of happiness and prosperity. Yet what is so remarkable is that hidden inside their seemingly one-of-a-kind journeys are practical principles for achieving success that work for anyone, no matter who you are or what you hope to achieve. This mold-breaking approach doesn't depend on you SAT scores, who you know, or how much money you have. The secret is a mindset that can be expressed in plain English: Harness your individuality in the pursuit of fulfillment to achieve excellence. In Dark Horse, Rose and Ogas show how the four elements of the dark horse mindset empower you to consistently make the right choices that fit your unique interests, abilities, and circumstances and will guide you to a life of passion, purpose, and achievement.




Hare House


Book Description

'Deliciously chilly' - Guardian 'Humming with suppressed hysteria and madness' - The Times 'Wonderfully evocative' - Heat Hare House is not its real name, of course. I have, if you will forgive me, kept names to a minimum here, for reasons that will become understandable . . . In the first brisk days of autumn, a woman arrives in Scotland having left her job at an all-girls school in London in mysterious circumstances. Moving into a cottage on the remote estate of Hare House, she begins to explore her new home. But among the tiny roads, wild moorland, and scattered houses, something more sinister lurks: local tales of witchcraft, clay figures and young men sent mad. Striking up a friendship with her landlord, Grant, and his younger sister, Cass, she begins to suspect that all might not be quite as it seems at Hare House. And as autumn turns to winter, and a heavy snowfall traps the inhabitants of the estate within its walls, tensions rise to fever pitch. Sally Hinchcliffe’s Hare House is a modern-day witch story, perfect for fans of Pine and The Loney. 'A beautiful, slow burn of a novel, eerie and shimmering in equal measure' - Mary Paulson-Ellis
