Book Description
Amelia Greensburg's life is a testament to perseverance amid adversity. Born to Holocaust survivors on a cargo ship, she faced and transcended discrimination and strife from an early age. Her union with Liam Bryce was marked by trials stemming from war's effects and familial discord but also by enduring love and shared tribulations. The couple's journey included the heartache of losing an infant and Liam's struggles with PTSD, punctuated by the challenging dynamics of family life and personal hardship. Confronting her own generational burdens, their daughter Elizabeth grapples with the shadows of her parents' and siblings' experiences. High school pressures, fear of failure, and the lure of forbidden love shape her path, which veers into the realms of domestic abuse and silent endurance within a troubled marriage to Ethan. As she bravely faces her own battles with PTSD, cancer, and the complexities of new love with Adam, her quest for serenity is marred by loss and the search for self amidst the chaos of life. Elizabeth's resiliency echoes through her fight for education and her dream of a bakery business, even as she cares for Adam through his own health crises. Adam's decline and eventual passing thrust Elizabeth into a bittersweet introspection at 38, wrestling with her identity and the overwhelming rush of support from those she holds dear.

Book Description
The notorious Lizzie Borden investigates a brutal axe-murder that’s strangely reminiscent of her own alleged crimes in this “entertaining” historical novel (The New York Times). It has been thirty years since a Massachusetts jury acquitted Lizzie Borden of brutally murdering her father and stepmother. Now, at the start of the 1920s, she’s an aging spinster living a quiet, secluded life by the New England seashore. Young Amanda Burton has heard all the stories, but nothing can dissuade her from spending time with the lonely old woman next door who shows her card tricks and smells of cigars. At age thirteen, Amanda’s been left to her own devices during a rather dull and swelteringly summer-long family vacation, and Miss Lizzie is the perfect distraction. But when Amanda stumbles upon her own despised stepmother’s corpse, the brutal crime seems eerily similar to a certain double axe-slaying in Fall River three decades earlier. Naturally the whole town immediately suspects Lizzie. The local police, though, are open-minded enough to consider Amanda’s brother and father to be viable suspects as well. To help her young friend and clear her own name (again), Lizzie must sharpen her sleuthing skills to find a fiendish killer with an axe to grind.
