A missing necklace, a murder, and an extra helping of plum pie... The magical Moria Pearls are hidden somewhere in Devon, and Miss Elinor Avely and the tiny vampire Miss Zooth are on the case – but a certain washed-up selkie prince is determined to find the powerful necklace before they do. Pearls aren’t diamonds, curse it, so Elinor’s secret gift for divining jewels cannot help this time. And the bossy Lord Beresford would rather she stay out of trouble. His lordship’s opinion holds some weight, given Elinor is hoping he might kiss her again. When a selkie's murder disrupts the Devonwide hunt, however, Elinor is backed into a troubling corner. She might be able to find both the Moria Pearls and the killer... but everyone still believes that Miss Zooth is the jewel diviner. Somehow, Elinor and her vampiric chaperone must maintain the façade, extend Elinor’s divining gift, and find the pearls before the murderer does … or risk forfeiting their lives. Who poisoned the selkie? Where are the pearls? And just why does that plum jam taste so good? Rosalie Oaks serves up the second novel in the Lady Diviner series, full of magic, manners, and romance.

Here is the first full volume in English devoted to a study of the Kitáb-i Íqán, a book designated by the Guardian of the Bahá'í Faith as "foremost among the priceless treasures cast forth from the billowing ocean of Bahá'u'lláh's Revelation."Christopher Buck, a Bahá'í scholar of Islamic Studies, elucidates Bahá'u'lláh's explanations of the symbolic language found in the Qur'an and in the Gospels. Bahá'u'lláh offers new insight into the meanings of these verses, and Buck illustrates how through those meanings the Kitáb-i Íqán forms a bridge to a new Revelation.Through extensive research, Buck shares the history of the revelation of the Kitáb-i Íqán, the rhetorical techniques which Bahá'u'lláh uses in this work, and its early publication in India at Bahá'u'lláh's command. He also answers the attacks that non-Bahá'í critics have directed against it. A must-read for students of Bahá'í Scripture.

The Choreo-novel, “Big Auntie’s Pearls” is my attempt to expand upon the form of dramatic expression known as “Choreopoem” which combines poetry, dance music and song with traditional African-American storytelling. My story’s implied plot uses theme elements with specific characters to hopefully create an emotional response from readers also its listeners. Nontraditional spelling and vernacular are written in the Concert format with each chapter called an Opus with three different movements as found in a Sonata or acts of an Opera or Ballet. The four Opuses are infused with Intermezzo and in Three-quarters time giving those of us with short attention spans maybe a twelve-hour read or an hour for one movement. This Google interactive version contains links to music; fashion; food and culture with also fast cars of the times to enhance the readers experience and maybe even do a little shopping. My story is Historical "Inspirational Fiction” using pseudonyms of persons and Venerable Institutions in a respectful fictitious manner to help Annamitta (Anna-mē-ta) tell her story of her Big Auntie’s whispered “High Pearls of Burden.” I invite you on this journey to my native Southwest Georgia in the “Morning Star Suite” and a debut recital in the Southern hamlet of Boston before spanning through time with stops in Washington DC, Miami until Annamitta’s “New Day” at Savannah’s College by the Sea. * Inspirational external links included for entertainment, educational and historical reference.

Enter the mystical and magical world of the internet sensation ME Pearl, the psychic squirrel deity, and her human mouthpiece Georgette, YouTube's famous "opossum lady." Pearl is a dead squirrel who knows everything. With the aid of her earthly mouthpiece Georgette Spelvin, Pearl has been sharing her psychic wisdom with her human disciples for years, delving into topics as varied and complex as love, money, work, health, and etiquette. Once hidden in the delightful corners of the internet for the canniest lurkers and most sacred seekers on the website MEPearl.com, Pearl’s cosmology now comes to life in print for the first time ever, revealing for the masses the secret for everlasting happiness, in addition to a newly-unearthed trove of Pearl’s bewitching, incisive, and illuminating advice that makes sense of every ancient—and current—mystery. With the same “delightfully peculiar” (New York magazine) flair that has made Pearl and Georgette sensations online and had videos of them featured on shows such as The Ellen DeGeneres Show and The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Pearls of Wisdom welcomes readers into the bewildering and addictive world of ME Pearl—one rife with Jackie O. glamour, David Lynch lunacy, marsupial melodrama, and psychedelic spirituality. Proffering new insights on everything from wildlife to the afterlife, Pearls of Wisdom is a true sacred text for the internet age—if not eternity.

Three intriguing World War II–era whodunits featuring the Scotland Yard detectives from the “timelessly charming” Miss Silver Mysteries (Charlotte MacLeod). Inspector Ernest Lamb and Det. Frank Abbott of Scotland Yard, who also made regular appearances in Patricia Wentworth’s beloved Miss Silver mystery series, confront a range of villains—from greedy landlords to ruthless blackmailers to diabolical Nazi spies. The Blind Side: Lucy Craddock has lived at No. 7 Craddock House for years. But now she’s about to be turned out of her home—by her own nephew. Since greedy Ross Craddock inherited the once-magnificent family estate, he has divided it into rented flats. But before he can boot out his aunt, he’s found shot to death with his own revolver. With a mansion full of suspects, Inspector Lamb comes to the door. Who Pays the Piper?: Lucas Dale is not above blackmail to get what he wants—in this case another man’s fiancée. Susan Lenox has no choice but to break off her engagement to up-and-coming architect Bill Carrick and agree to marry Dale—until he’s found in his study with a bullet in his head. Now it’s up to Inspector Lamb and Detective Abbott to construct a solid case. Pursuit of a Parcel: When a parcel from a double agent containing secrets the Nazis would love to get their hands on is delivered to a British law firm, an innocent woman becomes a pawn in a deadly game of international espionage, and Scotland Yard’s Inspector Lamb and Detective Abbott—along with Frank Garrett of the Foreign Office—step in to solve a cold-blooded murder.
