"Unlocked" unveils the limitless Kingdom we have inherited in Christ. Do you have the guts to unlock what's inside of you? For too long, the church has been so put together that it seems unattainable for many. In this hour, many will come and be able to receive this drink and will thirst no more. This journey into the Kingdom is not a formula. We have all been given access codes to reveal His great purpose for our lives. The question is: "How do we personally live life and life abundantly?" It's not one day, it's not just Sunday. What will you apprehend that has been set before you?

An intriguing Canadian mystery set against the fascinating world of competitive horse sport. An engaging and entertaining read" - Elizabeth Elwood, author of The Agatha Principle and Other Mysteries It's 1992, and language tensions are roiling Montreal. But 100 kilometres away at the peaceful Le Centre Equestre de L'Estrie in Quebec's Eastern Townships, francophones and anglophones, bonded by their common love of horse sport, get along just fine. Cracks appear in the stable's sunny façade, though, when Le Centre is designated the site of a prestigious competition for Olympic hopefuls in the disciplines of Dressage, Three-Day Eventing and Jumping. Suddenly personal conflicts surface. Political and language tensions flare. The stable office is vandalized, the walls covered in anti- anglophone graffiti. A beautiful stallion is mutilated. A viciously anti-Semitic fax is sent to Le Centre's Jewish owner. Three culprits? Two? One? Then the head stable boy's strangled corpse is discovered. A murder investigation begins, with former Jumper champion Polo Poisson cast as chief sleuth. Suspects abound, as everyone with a stake in Le Centre's success hated the victim - and with reason. Over the course of three days, Polo tracks all the intertwined mysteries to their source, in the process flushing out a long suppressed mystery about his own past.

The memoir of a South Asian immigrant to Canada, whose formative years in India were steeped in a reigning patriarchal culture of honour and shame, in which the burden of the family's good standing rests on the sexual purity of girls and women. The book traces the author's lonely, poignant, often risk-charged struggle to free herself from the oppressive code. As well, the book chronicles her courageous battle to help other South Asian girls and women in Canada step out of their kinsmen's ancient cultural cycle and claim their gender rights as fully equal Canadian citizens.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS: A Cultural Memoir and Other Essays is a collection of previously unpublished writing by National Post columnist Barbara Kay. This wide-ranging selection includes original essays - notably the title essay, a mini-memoir of the cultural and intellectual influences that shaped Kay's worldview - as well as a discursive ramble through the bizarre subculture of the pit bull advocacy movement. In between, readers familiar with Kay's weekly columns over the last ten years will find elaborated commentaries on her niche subjects: the negative impact of feminism on our public institutions and families, the erosion of academic integrity in the universities and our politically correct "rights" culture's sub-version of social and civic reciprocity in Canadian communities.
