The life of a human Starseed is not easy, to say the least. This soul is naive and bursting with unconditional love and compassion. To manifest as a human filled with the desire to heal others is a daunting task that is often underestimated in the depth and volume of challenges awaiting them.A natural healer-and many times a natural leader-the Starseed will choose a family that is dysfunctional and wrought with challenges prior to conception.Dysfunction, abuse in many forms, manipulation, and other negative behaviors are complex Shadows that are often intertwined. For example, exposure to alcoholism in a family is commonly associated with coexisting emotional and/or physical abuse.Shadow is not limited to individuals and families. Properties, communities, and societies can be impacted by the Shadow of the energy that surrounds them-the result of years of negativity manifesting in that region.Today's political climate-which includes dishonesty, divisiveness, racism-speaks to the overwhelming Shadow in the U.S. that is energetically felt by the multitude. For the Starseed, this societal Shadow can make them more susceptible to fatigue, depression, anxiety, and other physical and emotional symptoms.This book explores the duality of Light vs. Dark as experienced by Dr. Stacey Lamar. Her personal story reframes victimization and shares the steps she developed to heal and thrive in today's challenging world. Intuited through her spiritual work, The Forgiveness Factor outlines the steps to strengthen self and attune to one's mission and purpose.

The #1 New York Times bestselling author of While Justice Sleeps returns with another riveting and intricately plotted thriller, in which a blackmailed federal judge, a secret court and a brazen murder may lead to an unprecedented national crisis. "A thoroughly compelling take on the machinations of Washington and those covetous of power." --New York Magazine Supreme Court clerk Avery Keene is back, trying to get her feet on solid ground after unraveling an international conspiracy in While Justice Sleeps. But as the sparks of Congressional hearings and political skirmishes swirl around her, Avery is approached at a legal conference by Preston Davies, an unassuming young man and fellow law clerk to a federal judge in Idaho. Davies believes his boss, Judge Francesca Whitner, was being blackmailed in the days before she died. Desperate to understand what happened, he gives Avery a file, a burner phone, and a fearful warning that there are highly dangerous people involved. Another shocking murder leads Avery to a list of names - all federal judges - and, alarmingly, all judges on the FISA Court (the United States Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court), also known as America's "secret court." It is this body which grants permission to the government to wiretap Americans or spy on corporations suspected of terrorism. As Avery digs deeper, she begins to see a frightening pattern - and she worries that something far more sinister may be unfolding inside the nation's third branch of government. With lives at stake, Avery must race the clock and an unexpected enemy to find the answer. Drawn from today's headlines and woven with her unique insider perspective, Stacey Abrams combines twisting plotlines, wry wit, and clever puzzles to create another immensely entertaining suspense novel.
