In this sequel to the chapter book The Trouble with Chickens, all search-and-rescue dog J.J. Tully wants is to enjoy his retirement. But mama chick Moosh and chicks Dirt and Sugar are acting strange. A possum keeps finding its way into the chicken coop. And J.J. has questions about Diamond Lil, the fancy new dog next door. He'll have to track down the clues and sniff out the evidence to save the day.

When Agnes Foster finds herself stuck in the middle of a storm with her sick younger brother, she once more finds a reason to cement her doubt in God. But as fate would have it, God sends a good Samaritan her way. Thomas Burleson, a young man finding his footing in God, becomes her knight in shining armor that night in the storm. But fate had other plans. It would seem that fate always had a hand in crafting love stories, and for Thomas Burleson, there was no exception. A man who had had failed relationships, and was definitely not ready to jump into another, had no idea fate had made him cross paths with the one who was to become the love of his life. Although he paid no heed to exchanging contacts that night, fate kept tabs on them both, making them cross paths years later. To him, it was a matter of bringing her closer to God, to dispel her doubts. Try as he might, he could not shake off the thought of Agnes, and although his mother made sure he got to know about her dark past, something kept pushing him. Something much more powerful than the darkness of her father's involvement in permanently confining his father to a wheelchair, egged him on. Although the pain resurfaced, it could not restrain the feeling of being incomplete without her in his life. Contrary to his mother's will, he had gone ahead to play by his feelings, trusting God to help him win her to Him and much more to himself. What had started out as being a good Samaritan in a heavy storm, turned to be the genesis of a love story, and most importantly; a reconciliation to God; one where the darkest of history, could not withstand the power of love and the light of Christ.

Economic, political, and social factors stand at the heart of the struggle for African development. They are three sides of the same triangle and reform in each area must go hand-in-hand if a stable, sustainable and prosperous Africa is to emerge. This book examines the causes behind African leaders' failure to bring about political stability and economic development. Several factors are assessed, among them, (1) the impact of the one-party system on African societies, (2) deterioration of the economy and the social order, (3) civil war, and (4) poor management of resources, especially diamonds and oil.
