Escaping a fire, Imprisoning her ex-boyfriend And threatening vampires with a corkscrew is not what a girl normally expects to happen at Christmas. Resentment and anger at Alec's privileged position as Daywalker has brought the Brethren to the brink of a deadly war that could spill over into the human world. To avoid such a catastrophe, Alec is faced with a terrible choice: either surrender Laura to the rebel faction who see her as their ticket to the daylight - not an option - or risk alienating their allies by invoking the Pledge, an ancient ceremony that enforces Brethren loyalty to the Principate. The last time the Pledge had been used it nearly ended the Principate. How close would it come this time? Or will both Alec and Laura fall victim to the dangerous powers wielded by legendary Russian monk-turned-vampire - and Chief Rebel - Rasputin?

Outwitting a hundred-year-old Russian vampire-monk, beheading rogue vampires and dealing with a creepy housekeeper wasn't what Laura Dantonville expected on her first visit to her family's ancestral home. What do you do when the person you're meant to trust turns into your betrayer? Having survived torture at the hands of Rebel leader Count Timur's sadistic henchman, Rasputin, Alec sets out to end the rebellion by turning the Rebels against themselves - by giving them what they want. It's the only way to ensure a safe future for him and Laura. Laura has an engagement ring on her finger and a determination to fight to protect those she loves. Warrior-princess she may not be, but acquiring new skills with sword and dagger is giving her the confidence to face any personal threat the remaining Rebels may pose. After intercepting a message from the Rebels, the Dantonville's immediately relocate from Sydney to the safety of the family chateau in France. But apparent safety can be deceiving. A festering evil lurks within its walls. Will they discover it in time? Or will everything the family has worked for over the last eighteen hundred years be destroyed by one of their own?

The Boy on the Beach: My Family's Escape from Syria and Our Hope for a New Home
An intimate and poignant memoir about the family of Alan Kurdi--the young Syrian boy who became the global emblem for the desperate plight of millions of Syrian refugees--and of the many extraordinary journeys the Kurdis have taken, spanning countries and continents. Alan Kurdi's body washed up on the shore of the Mediterranean Sea on September 2, 2015, and overnight, the political became personal, as the world awoke to the reality of the Syrian refugee crisis. Tima Kurdi first saw the shocking photo of her nephew in her home in Vancouver, Canada. But Tima did not need a photo to understand the truth--she and her family had already been living it. In The Boy on the Beach, Tima recounts her idyllic childhood in Syria, where she grew up with her brother Abdullah and other siblings in a tight-knit family. A strong-willed, independent woman, Tima studied to be a hairdresser and had dreams of seeing the world. At twenty-two, she emigrated to Canada, but much of her family remained in Damascus. Life as a single mother and immigrant in a new country wasn't always easy, and Tima recounts with heart-wrenching honesty the anguish of being torn between a new home and the world she'd left behind. As Tima struggled to adapt to life in a new land, war overtook her homeland. Caught in the crosshairs of civil war, her family risked everything and fled their homes. Tima worked tirelessly to help them find safety, but their journey was far from easy. Thwarted by politics, hounded by violence, and separated by vast distances, the Kurdis encountered setbacks at every turn, but they never gave up hope. And when tragedy struck, Tima suddenly found herself thrust onto the world stage as an advocate for refugees everywhere, a role for which she had never prepared but that allowed her to give voice to those who didn't have an opportunity to speak for themselves. From the jasmine-scented neighbourhoods of Damascus before the war to the streets of Aleppo during it, to the refugee camps of Europe and the leafy suburbs of Vancouver, The Boy on the Beach is one family's story of love, loss, and the persistent search for safe harbour in a devastating time of war.

The divine physician is waiting to heal our wounds. He invites us to travel this road, and he is with us every step of the way.This book is meant to help you take the first steps toward finding the freedom that comes from leaving bitterness behind.

Gutten på stranden; historien om Alan Kurdi
2.september 2015 vekkes verden til bildet av den to år gamle gutten Alan Kurdi som ligger med hodet ned i sanden på en strand i Tyrkia. Bildet av den lille, syriske gutten i rød T-skjorte og svarte sko gikk verden rundt, og i løpet av de nærmeste dagene kunne man lese femtitretusen tweets i timen om gutten på stranden. Men Alan lå ikke alene på stranden den morgenen i Bodrum. Også moren Rehanna og den fire år gamle broren, Ghalib, druknet da glassfiberbåten de satt i, gikk rundt. For pappa Abdullah og tante Tima var dette slutten på verden slik de kjente den, for den vestlige verden var det begynnelsen på flyktningkrisen. «Allah hatt alnoor 'ala Alan. Gud har kastet lys over Alan. Dette bildet må få verden til å våkne. Mennesker må slutte å drukne», sier Abdullah Kurdi bare timer etter at familien hans har druknet. Og verden våkner. Gutten på stranden er en vakker fortelling om en barndom i Syria. Fra det sjasminduftende nabolaget i Damaskus før krigen begynte og de krigsherjede gatene i Aleppo, til flyktningleirer i Europa og de frodige forstedene i Vancouver, er Gutten på stranden en families fortelling om kjærlighet og tap og om den iherdige jakten på en trygg havn mens en ødeleggende krig raser. «Timas fortelling tilfører et av de sterkeste fotografiene i vår tid lag på lag av skjønnhet. Denne boken er en gave. Og vi er heldige som får ta den imot.» Rupi Kaur, NYT bestselgende forfatter av Melk og honning og Solen og hennes blomster. 'Fotografiet av lille Alan Kurdis kropp med ansiktet ned i sanden gjorde et uutslettelig inntrykk. Like opprevet og beveget ble jeg da jeg leste denne boken.' Khaled Hosseini, NYT bestselgende forfatter av Drageløperen «Dette er en velskrevet og opprivende politisk memoar - en kvinnes gripende og tydelige minnetale for en nevø som fortjente så mye mer enn å bli kjent som 'gutten på stranden'» -The Washington Post
