Marilyn Frey's heart-warming memoir draws you into a much simpler time in the '60s and '70s, growing up on a farm in central Saskatchewan where hard work and discipline helped develop a strong work ethic and character. Covering the full range of emotions from chuckle-out-loud humour to wiping your eyes sadness, Marilyn takes you along as she advances into early adulthood and recounts humorous escapades and some more disheartening incidents. A missing child, an up-close grapple with a bear, and some unexplained heavenly encounters are some of the events that Marilyn details before transitioning to her final stories, including her lonely life on the road, a break-in, and her sister's untimely death. Marilyn illustrates how the small things in life often hold the most significant meaning and, ultimately, the greatest learning. "Here is the story of a life told the way life unfolds-as a series of events recalled and rearranged like keepsakes in a curio cabinet filled with the beautiful, the broken. This remarkable collection is honest and compelling."-Praise for Reflections in a Farmhouse Window from well-known Saskatchewan author of Black Umbrella, Katherine Lawrence.
Discover the huntsman, the wolf and Red Riding Hood herself as you've never known them before -- retold by the bestselling authors of Messenger, The Shoemaker and Bluebeard's Bride.
When sisters Margaret and Rosie Jaye receive word of their sister Helen's death, they journey to the isolated Blueford Manor. Seemingly cast in an eternal twilight, the estate proves to be full of mysteries: their niece's inexplicable illness, housemaids who never stay longer than a season and a thriving bat colony. As Rosie and Margaret unravel the web of lies surrounding Helen's death, the sisters become entangled in life at Blueford Manor. So much so, that Rosie decides to stay-forever. Unsettled by Rosie's decision, Margaret suspects Helen's widower, the formidable Captain Ford, of influencing her sister. But Margaret's quest for answers is thwarted when Rosie suddenly disappears within the walls of Blueford Manor. As Margaret sets out to unlock the truth, she makes another startling discovery. Adept with a needle and thread, Margaret possesses a dark and unnatural power of her own. Now, Margaret must solve her sister's disappearance and the unanswered questions of Helen's death before Rosie, too, is counted among the dead.
