Thought-provoking and unique, Monstera offers a glimpse into the private lives of three very different families, all residing in the same strangely alluring house, at different times. As the narrative unfolds through alternating timelines and perspectives, each family struggles with their own unique challenges and dynamics, while working against an evolving malevolent force lurking among them. Monstera is a haunting tale that contemplates the destructive power of our belief systems, celebrates the endurance of the human spirit, and captures the fundamental essence of family, self-identity, and human nature. Through its atmospheric descriptions and unsettling encounters, it serves as a startling reminder that everything, however inconsequential it may seem, leaves a lasting imprint for decades to come. This fresh exploration of gothic fiction carefully blends the supernatural with the psychological, as it delves into the frightening unknown, the depths of the human psyche, and the staggering lengths we'll go to for our families.

Nothing in life grabs your attention more than losing someone you dearly love in an instant - unless that someone happens to be your child. The blue moon of that fateful night shed just enough light on the path that was laid out before her. Being launched into a deep dive that could challenge anyone's faith, this mother walked through doors that opened for her that helped find answers and the healing she needed to make sense of life after the death of her 24 year old son Evan. By allowing the wound in her heart to open her mind as well, she was able to expand and build upon her faith foundation, and come to a place of acceptance with a greater peace and joy. Through honoring each lonely feeling and taking each step along this dimly lit path of darkness one finds themselves on after losing a child, the author shares with you her story of finding healing from the throes of clinical depression to becoming a Healing Touch Practitioner 10 years later. Blue Moon: Finding Answers About Death Through Ancient Wisdom and Modern Healing is an account of how any amount of faith can lead to doing "the greater things" that Jesus promised we'd be able to do, (Jn 14:12) through his Everlasting Love for us.

A fascinating look into dimensions of murder that are often overlooked and undeveloped. Spree killing, in particular, is a crime that researchers have vacillated over in the past two decades or so, most notably when the FBI's 2005 consortium on Serial Homicide seemed to walk back from the concept because of the implications of the term "cooling off period." The author draws the reader into consideration of such classifications, both the spree killer and the mass murderer. It underlines that it's often difficult to delineate atypical murderers such as serial killers, spree killers, and mass murderers. It's not uncommon for aspects of these behaviors to spill over and overlap with one another. It can be best to stay away from the binary choices of typology and understand the criminal as an individual case.

Getting into the service dog world can be like entering a cold pool with no descriptor of how deep the water goes--shocking, unnerving, and you hope you're not drastically underestimating the depth, but you probably are all the same. That's where Six Feet to Independence comes in. With knowledge and input from every stage of the journey--from first-timers' family members to trainers who have been in this world for years and years and the dog world even longer--this book is meant to educate new potential handlers and their support people. Six Feet to Independence explores six areas that most people getting into this world either don't know they should look into or are overwhelmed by. A service dog and its trainer need to become one organism, moving with six feet, not just a dog and a handler. This is much easier to let yourself become when you know how to walk, which you will learn one step at a time. This book is not just full of answers to questions, but questions the future handler and those around them have to ask themselves. This is not a be-all, end-all lifestyle choice, and it is certainly not for the faint of heart or something to do "for funsies."
