When Kaylee Cavanaugh screams, someone dies. So when teen pop star Eden croaks onstage and Kaylee doesn't wail, she knows something is dead wrong. She can't cry for someone who has no soul. The last thing Kaylee needs right now is to be skipping school, breaking her dad's ironclad curfew and putting her too-hot-to-be-real boyfriend's loyalty to the test. But starry-eyed teens are trading their souls: a flickering lifetime of fame and fortune in exchange for eternity in the Netherworld—a consequence they can't possibly understand. Kaylee can't let that happen, even if trying to save their souls means putting her own at risk….

In our can't-stop world, where we frantically move through our days with hardly a moment of true rest and reflection, it's hard to comprehend the thought of being still, of leaving our anxiety and worry and impatience in the capable hands of a loving God. But that's exactly what Elisabeth Elliot calls us to do. Using the title of one of her favorite hymns as her unifying theme, Elliot offers an inspiring collection of reflections on living the Christian life. Illustrating biblical concepts with her rich personal experiences as a missionary, mother, wife, widow, radio host, and internationally known public speaker, Elliot writes with clarity and elegance on topics at once timeless and timely. This lovely new repackaged edition is perfect for the busy times in which we live.

A murder on the unforgiving Icelandic coast unearths a dark past in this thriller by the acclaimed author of Last Rituals. Attorney and single mother Thóra Gudmundsdóttir is on the west coast of Iceland, where a client named Jonas is turning an old farm into a New Age spa. In this ruggedly beautiful region of lore and superstition, Thóra has no patience for local tales of hauntings. But some horrors are all too real—as when a young woman is brutally murdered, and Jonas becomes the chief suspect. As Thóra digs deep into the farm's past, discovering long-buried secrets, her once-solid view of reality begins to waver. Could the farm truly be haunted? And more importantly, does its eerie past have some connection to the murder? When another body is discovered—looking very much like the first—Thóra is forced to put aside her doubts and confront a twisted killer.
