A cannon. A strap. A piece. A biscuit. A burner. A heater. A chopper. A gat. A hammer A tool for RULE Or, you can call it a gun. That’s what fifteen-year-old Will has shoved in the back waistband of his jeans. See, his brother Shawn was just murdered. And Will knows the rules. No crying. No snitching. Revenge. That’s where Will’s now heading, with that gun shoved in the back waistband of his jeans, the gun that was his brother’s gun. He gets on the elevator, seventh floor, stoked. He knows who he’s after. Or does he? As the elevator stops on the sixth floor, on comes Buck. Buck, Will finds out, is who gave Shawn the gun before Will took the gun. Buck tells Will to check that the gun is even loaded. And that’s when Will sees that one bullet is missing. And the only one who could have fired Shawn’s gun was Shawn. Huh. Will didn’t know that Shawn had ever actually USED his gun. Bigger huh. BUCK IS DEAD. But Buck’s in the elevator? Just as Will’s trying to think this through, the door to the next floor opens. A teenage girl gets on, waves away the smoke from Dead Buck’s cigarette. Will doesn’t know her, but she knew him. Knew. When they were eight. And stray bullets had cut through the playground, and Will had tried to cover her, but she was hit anyway, and so what she wants to know, on that fifth floor elevator stop, is, what if Will, Will with the gun shoved in the back waistband of his jeans, MISSES. And so it goes, the whole long way down, as the elevator stops on each floor, and at each stop someone connected to his brother gets on to give Will a piece to a bigger story than the one he thinks he knows. A story that might never know an END…if Will gets off that elevator. Told in short, fierce staccato narrative verse, Long Way Down is a fast and furious, dazzlingly brilliant look at teenage gun violence, as could only be told by Jason Reynolds.

Since its first publication in 1985, psychic and healer Echo Bodine’s Hands That Heal has gently and thoroughly guided readers through energy, or spiritual, healing.

The book also provides exercises for those wishing to test and develop their own healing hands, plus meditations, affirmations, and exercises to aid both healers and those seeking healing.

The Hairbrush and the Shoe
Author: Jeanne D. Stanton
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1684630355
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 215
Book Description
When a workman is pushed and hissed at by something invisible on the stairs of her family’s 150-year-old townhouse, Jeanne Stanton must confront the possibility that a ghost inhabits. She proceeds in the way any former Harvard Business School case writer would: she embarks upon a rigorous search for proof of the ghost’s existence and identity, exploring the literature and lore of ghosts; the practices of mediums, psychics, and “ghost busters;” and the various attempts that have been made over the decades to verify ghostly sounds and sights through scientific methods. After visits to a psychic provide insights but not proof, Stanton enters the equally mysterious realms of physics and neurology, hoping science has answers. Notables encountered during her research efforts include Henry James, Arthur Conan Doyle, Oliver Sacks, and Sigmund Freud, the latter a colleague of her home’s original owner. Wry and witty, Stanton takes time out to laugh at her own futile attempts at ghost detection—spending a sleepless night in an allegedly haunted bedroom, creeping along the edges of rooms in search of cold spots—along the way. Determined to get to the bottom of the ghost business, Stanton wavers between skepticism and belief, searching for definitive evidence—and almost failing to find it. Almost.

The Next Files
Author: G L Keady
Publisher: Big Island Publishing
ISBN: 097563304X
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 115
Book Description
Fresh out of school, Jax de Loite, an ambitious Australian First Nations girl, secures a junior researcher position at NewsLine, a leading national current affairs TV program. Feeling her talents are underutilized in research, she yearns for more challenging work. Des Carter, the Executive Producer of NewsLine and a long-time friend of her journalist father, recognizes her potential and decides to give her a chance. He assigns her to 'The Next Files' – a neglected archive brimming with public submissions of supernatural events and inexplicable phenomena. These files, humorously named in a nod to the 90s cult TV series 'The X-Files', are a collection of enigmas no one else wants to tackle, and they now land in Jax's lap. In her first case, Jax is tasked with interviewing a Feng Shui master brought to Sydney to dispel a ghost believed to haunt the Eight Dragons Restaurant. Unfamiliar with Chinese culture, she seeks the assistance of Doc Lee, a half Filipino, half Chinese Australian-raised science student who is skeptical about the existence of ghosts. Together, they embark on a journey into the supernatural. The plot thickens in the second story, 'Min Min'. Jax and Doc are sent to investigate a headline in a western Queensland newspaper: "US Scientist Abducted by Min Min Lights." While Jax leans towards theories of alien abduction, Doc searches for a scientific explanation. Their quest leads them to Pine Gap near Alice Springs, where Jax ventures into the mystical realm of the Dreamtime, seeking truths that transcend the known world.
