Book Description
In this paranormal mystery series opener, a young woman with a gift for finding corpses helps an FBI agent investigate a serial killer. There had been no attempt to bury the dead girl, naked except for the white ribbon tied to her wrist . . . Twenty-five-year-old Julie Hall has a unique ability: when she takes up a dowsing rod, she finds not water but bodies. To Julie, it's a curse, not a gift, and one she rarely uses—she prefers her quiet life in a trailer, with her grandfather and her dog for company. But when FBI agent Garrett Pierce shows up at her door seeking help with a case, she has no choice but to assist with their search. Three girls are still missing. The killer is still out there. As bodies are discovered and more girls disappear, the case becomes almost more than Julie can bear. And when the killer turns his sights toward her, even her growing relationship with the protective Agent Garrett may not be enough to save her. Praise for A Grave Calling “Readers who pat themselves on the back for being able to anticipate twists may find themselves one-upped here. Roberts imbues Hall with a likable pluck and grit. She has a deft, witty touch. . . . There is genuine suspense as the danger hits close to home, and Hall and Pierce make for an arresting team. Readers of this taut mystery don’t need dowsing rods to detect series potential.” —Kirkus Review

Book Description
Meet Lexi Carmichael, geek girl extraordinaire I spend my days stopping computer hackers at the National Security Agency. My nights? Those I spend avoiding my mother and eating cereal for dinner. Even though I work for a top-secret agency, I’ve never been in an exciting car chase, sipped a stirred (not shaken) martini, or shot a poison dart from an umbrella. Until today, that is, when two gun-toting thugs popped up in my life and my best friend disappeared. So, I’ve enlisted the help of the Zimmerman twins—the reclusive architects of America’s most sensitive electronic networks—to help me navigate a bewildering maze of leads to find her. Along the way, my path collides with a sexy government agent and a rich, handsome lawyer, both of whom seem to have the hots for me. Hacking, espionage, sexy spy-men—it’s a geek girl’s dream come true. If it weren’t for those gun-toting thugs... This book is approximately 112,000 words Carina Press acknowledges the editorial services of Alissa Davis Other Books in the Lexi Carmichael Mystery Series: No One Lives Twice (Book 1) No One To Trust (Book 2) No Money Down (Book 2.5) — Novella No Place Like Rome (Book 3) No Biz Like Showbiz (Book 4) No Test for the Wicked (Book 5) No Woman Left Behind (Book 6) No Room for Error (Book 7) No Strings Attached (Book 8) No Living Soul (Book 9) No Regrets (Book 10) And Coming Soon: No Stone Unturned (Book 11) No Title Yet (Book 12 — LOL!)

Calling to Good
Author: Fethullah Gulen
Publisher: Tughra Books
ISBN: 1597849944
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 97
Book Description
“Call to good and prevent wrong”— amr bil ma'ruf wa nahy an al munkar. Depending on the translations within the Qur'anic contexts, “calling to good” may be rendered as promoting the right, just, honorable, righteous behavior, and virtue; whereas “preventing wrong” is forbidding what is evil, dishonorable, and vice. The Qur'an urges believers to embrace this duty individually and collectively and praises them when they practice this obligation (Al ‘Imran 3:104, 110). This duty is meant to encourage righteous behavior and discourage immorality and aims to remove oppression from society and instead establish justice. It should, ideally, be the distinguishing trait of a Muslim community as it applies to the moral, social, political, and economic facets of life. “Calling to good and preventing wrong” can be classified as a duty in the framework of teaching others about faith (tabligh). Literally meaning “to reach out” or “to convey,” tabligh is directed to raise the consciousness among people about their responsibility towards religion. It disseminates knowledge about living one's faith in a principled way. Therefore, any discourse, or any act, that conveys, communicates, reminds, promotes, or publishes the teachings and commands of God to the unknowing—or to the less informed—or any discourse or act, that discourages or prevents people from being wrong, unjust, or evil, comes under the meaning of this word, tabligh. Rooted deeply in the Qur'an, hadith, and commentaries of notable scholars, the book in your hands is a precious resource to comprehend the context and dynamics that make spiritual mentoring and guidance an important part of a faithful life. The content of the book consists of transcripts of a series of sermons M. Fethullah Gülen delivered early in his career as a preacher. While presenting extensive commentary based on examples from the time of Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, and Rightly Guided Caliphs, Gülen does so with awareness of the realities of the modern era, especially with regards to being free from political interests and keeping the scope as wide as possible so to embrace the whole of humanity. The book supports the idea that spiritual mentoring and guidance is an important duty and highlights some principles mentors should take into consideration. While being an essential reference for mentors and counselors in the Muslim community, the book offers many universal principles that all faith communities can benefit from and refer to in their services.
