Synopsis Stolen My Heart by : S. A. Ghandi

Stolen My Heart: The Thrill of Falling in Love and the Tragedy of Heartbreak is aimed especially at young adults. It is a story of love, romance, and heartbreak. It also tells how the lessons learned could inspire others. Says Rev. S. A. Ghandi, “This book is a true-life experience that I had with girls in my life. It is the journey of my love life, my pursuit of destiny, and the girl of my dreams. From one disappointment to the other, I never ceased to learn the great lessons of life in all of my predicaments and heartbreaks with these girls. It was the memories, the regrets, and the pains in retrospect I held over the years that led me to write this love tale.” Stolen My Heart is a true-life experience showing the thrill of falling in love, as well as the tragedy of heartbreak that author S. A. Ghandi experienced with girls throughout his life. It is a tale of the good, the bad, and the ugly sides of his love life. It includes the lessons he learned in retrospect from his heartbreaks and how he was able to deal with them. He says, “It has taught me never to give up on love. It has taught me to always embrace love and women. It has taught me more about love, tenderness, tolerance, compatibility and mutual understanding with the opposite sex.” While others may break down after their heart is broken, Ghandi had been able to turn his misfortune into an equivalent advantage for good, not succumbing to the destruction of his emotions for love and the pursuit of destiny. This book is written specially for those who have ever been in the mud and tasted the bitterness of love to find a stream of motivation and healing, one that flows from every hurt on every page. The author adds, “Every experience that I had with these girls has never left me the same. It has made me a better person. While the experience of heartbreak makes some people be more resentful towards love and women, it has taught me to be otherwise.”

Synopsis The First Mrs. Edwards by : ID Johnson

Not all love stories have a happily ever after.... All Lydia de Lisle Edwards wants from her new marriage is to love and be loved by the handsome man who rescued her from the embarrassing, and potentially life shattering, ramifications of conceiving a child out of wedlock. However, as Lydia gets to know Isaac Edwards, along with the strange woman who serves as a mother-figure to her new husband, and the terrifying doctor specializing in women's health--particularly hysteria--Lydia begins to realize this marriage might just be her undoing. An exploration into the struggles of being a woman in the 19th Century, The First Mrs. Edwards examines what it was like to live in a time when women were told they were crazy simply for being women. The First Mrs. Edwards is based on a character from the literary novel Beneath the Inconstant Moon. While it is not necessary to read that book first in order to enjoy this one, it is recommended.

Synopsis The Battlefield of Life by : Michael Adekome Wadele

I am a living-proof of the battlefield of life. I am a living-proof that life in itself is a battlefield. A battle that begins right from the moment of our conception in the womb. Right from the womb, I already suffered five defeats in the battlefield of my life. By the time I was born on the 25th of June 1970, I was born defeated with blurred speech, blurred eyes, blurred ears, blurred hands and deformed feet. These five womb operations were perfected in such a way that I looked completely normal to those living by sight. By doing this, the devil was perfecting his main goal of deceiving mankind to believe he does not exist while still achieving his three cardinal goals of stealing, killing and destroying. He knew if I was completely dumb, blind, deaf, cripple or lame, my parents would have gone into spiritual consultations and would have discovered his handiwork. Even though they might not have been able to reverse it, he feared that might have led them into believing in the existence of Satan and hence their salvation in Christ. Most of us are like my parents, we first need to see Satan before we can see Christ. We only try Jesus when every other thing has failed us. When our problems have defied all solutions, that is when we seek the face of Christ. Satan now knows this. And he has now found a remedy to this problem. Guess what his remedy is? Satanic womb operation of course! In my own case, he made sure I was born absolutely normal in every way but hid all his womb operation on the inside of me. It was only I and I satanic womb operation experience, while my ignorant parents continue to celebrate the birth of their first-born son. This book is about all my defeats in the battlefield of life and how I eventually traded these defeats for victories by adopting Gods own winning strategies. You also need these strategies to win and you will get them all in this book. It is a 12-volume series designed and written to give you all the winning strategies in the battlefield of life.

Synopsis Wife of the Gods by : Kwei Quartey

“Fans of The No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency may have a new hero: Detective Inspector Darko Dawson.”—The Wall Street Journal Introducing Detective Inspector Darko Dawson: dedicated family man, rebel in the office, ace in the field—and one of the most appealing sleuths to come along in years. When we first meet Dawson, he’s been ordered by his cantankerous boss to leave behind his loving wife and young son in Ghana’s capital city to lead a murder investigation: In a shady grove outside the small town of Ketanu, a young woman—a promising medical student—has been found dead under suspicious circumstances. Dawson is fluent in Ketanu’s indigenous language, so he’s the right man for the job, but the local police are less than thrilled with an outsider’s interference. For Dawson, this sleepy corner of Ghana is rife with emotional land mines: an estranged relationship with the family he left behind twenty-five years earlier and the painful memory of his own mother’s inexplicable disappearance. Armed with remarkable insight and a healthy dose of skepticism, Dawson soon finds his cosmopolitan sensibilities clashing with age-old customs, including a disturbing practice in which teenage girls are offered to fetish priests as trokosi, or Wives of the Gods. Delving deeper into the student’s haunting death, Dawson will uncover long-buried secrets that, to his surprise, hit much too close to home. Praise for Wife of the Gods “An absolute gem . . . mystery fans have an important new voice to savor.”—Los Angeles Times “Full of suspense, humor and plot twists . . . Quartey’s remarkable characters give the reader a worthy whodunit.”—Ebony “[A] winning debut . . . Dawson is a wonderful creation, a man as rich with contradictions as the Ghana Quartey so delightfully evokes.”—Publishers Weekly “Engrossing . . . [Quartey] renders a compelling cast of characters. . . . Fans of McCall Smith’s No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency will relish the opportunity to discover yet another intriguing area of Africa.”—Booklist (starred review)

Synopsis Last Words of the Executed by : Robert K. Elder

Some beg for forgiveness. Others claim innocence. At least three cheer for their favorite football teams. Death waits for us all, but only those sentenced to death know the day and the hour—and only they can be sure that their last words will be recorded for posterity. Last Words of the Executed presents an oral history of American capital punishment, as heard from the gallows, the chair, and the gurney. The product of seven years of extensive research by journalist Robert K. Elder, the book explores the cultural value of these final statements and asks what we can learn from them. We hear from both the famous—such as Nathan Hale, Joe Hill, Ted Bundy, and John Brown—and the forgotten, and their words give us unprecedented glimpses into their lives, their crimes, and the world they inhabited. Organized by era and method of execution, these final statements range from heartfelt to horrific. Some are calls for peace or cries against injustice; others are accepting, confessional, or consoling; still others are venomous, rage-fueled diatribes. Even the chills evoked by some of these last words are brought on in part by the shared humanity we can’t ignore, their reminder that we all come to the same end, regardless of how we arrive there. Last Words of the Executed is not a political book. Rather, Elder simply asks readers to listen closely to these voices that echo history. The result is a riveting, moving testament from the darkest corners of society.
