The fourth novel in the action-packed Marc Edwards mystery series, set during the rebellions of 1830s Upper Canada. Autumn 1837: the provinces of Upper and Lower Canada are on the eve of open revolt. Lieutenant Marc Edwards has been sent with a force of British soldiers to subdue the increasingly hostile French rebels. But as the smoke from the battle clears and political pressures build, Marc begins to question whether the sacrifices he has made in the name of Crown and country have been worth the cost. On his return trip to Toronto, Marc is accompanied by a group of seemingly innocent civilians. But as tensions in the provinces escalate and personal grievances within the group arise, it becomes clear that not everyone Marc is traveling with is who he appears to be. Soon, mysterious death threats are issued and Marc finds himself the target of an unknown assassin. And when a member of the group is found murdered in the woods, Marc realizes that he may have more than one killer to worry about.

The Derelict Heart by Don Gutteridge is a beautiful and heartbreaking collection of poems. The poems span the author's lifetime; from a boy discovering nature to an adolescent with a crush on girls and on to his adulthood and blissful marriage. Gutteridge's poems vividly and succinctly capture moments and feelings such as the joy of falling in love, the serenity of a summer's day and the despair felt at life's unfairness. Most of the poems are loving tributes to the author's beloved wife and cherished grandson who have both passed away. Memories of everyday life are shared as well as poignant recollections of what Gutteridge loved most about his late wife and grandson. Gutteridge lovingly recalls happy and carefree times spent with his wife and grandson and describes the anguish he feels now living without them. All of the poems in this collection are exceptional but the poems on grief and loss were the most impactful for me. These poems are a testament to enduring love and the power of family bonds. This is a remarkable collection of poems about life, love, and loss.

Invincible Ink is a 128-page tribute to love by Canadian poet Don Gutteridge. It has been said that if you admire the work of Dylan Thomas such as "Do not go gentle in that good night", and Tomas Hardy's "The Darkling Thrush", you are probably going to love the fine work by Gutteridge. Poetry lovers, should be introduced to this contemporary poet who can equal the best of contemporary poetry, but whose work has the advantage of being more succinct than Grey's. Gutteridge's magical way with words will hold the reader entranced; everything he offers in "Invincible Ink" is uniquely expressed, from the poems about The Widow Bray, where her personal grief is entwined with the passing of the seasons to the tragedy of a child's death. Don Gutteridge writes much of death, but not exclusively so. I found "A Love Poem" and "Into an April Morning" irresistible; "A Love Poem" is especially sensual, and it concludes, correctly, with "I feel no need to say I love you". Succinct equals short, which means a huge number of poems in one volume, and I should be able to say you can dip in and out. I found that impossible. When I reached the last poem and read the line "I'd trade a hundred dawns to have you here again in my heart", I turned straight back to the beginning and read them all again. Invincible Ink by Don Gutteridge is one of the best poetry books, and definitely, the most distinctive, that you will ever have the privilege of reading. It is a must read.

Into the Milkweed Meadow is another stunning collection of poems by Canadian author, Don Gutteridge. This fine collection is an ode to nature, love, time, and the complex nuance of oft-overlooked emotions, this soft-spoken collection is magnificent in its quiet confidence. The collection is generously sprinkled with vivid and startling turns-of-phrase throughout. From the very first poem, Gutteridge graces readers with language like "come-summer breeze" and "lilies a-flame / in the hectic heat of a May / morning." Gutteridge is masterful with words, and the thematic explorations are playful and unpredictable, such as the naughty innocence of "Demure" or the restraint and patience displayed in "Walking, In Love." This is why Gutteridge is considered one of Canada's all-time best poets.

The narrative poems in Where Rivers Run Deep, by Don Gutteridge, can only be described with superlatives. The poems are a gorgeous offering for readers who enjoy poetry, with themes that appeal to the human spirit and our spiritual sense. What immediately strikes the reader as they start on the first poem is the beautiful rhythm - fast and musical. The poet employs very short lines and allows a river of life to flow through them. The poems are powerful, imbued with strong imagery. Gutteridge is a gifted poet who makes the reader feel things that are abstract. He takes those intangible feelings and writes them into objects and things that readers can touch and feel. The poems deal with spiritual themes and humanity and I particularly enjoyed the poet's reflections on his own humanity and how it connects him to everyone else. In our encounters with others, what takes precedence is our humanity, the fact that the same blood runs through our veins and that our joy can be shared. Where Rivers Run Deep is a delightful collection, each poem leaving the reader satisfied.
