On June 23, 2010, in a small Georgia town named Halima, an intoxicated white male, who was either an incurable wise-ass or the most hate-fueled racist in America, was arrested for being a public menace. Th e resistant suspect was immediately transported to the Sheriffs station. He presented himself as Mr. Wayne Rosseland and immediately began raising hell. He reminded the facility of the Southern Confederate history of slavery, insurgency and white supremacy. He reduced the violently depressing slave experience to an anecdote and reiterated the hopelessness of the African- American plight in modern America, of which in his opinion one n***** who would inevitably die prior to fi nishing his first term would ultimately make worse. His antics discombobulated the small staff as well as the residing inmates so thoroughly that he left them no choice but to place him in isolation alongside convicted murderer Gregory Brady. Rosseland predicted President Obamas inevitable assassination. What one man accomplished with pure hatred, wit, humor and racial epithets would lead to a legacy so riveting that there is no doubt fifty years from now folks will still be talking in Halima about the events surrounding the arrest of Wayne Rosseland. He is so revered that even a conservatives best bet would ring in millions, based on the betting line being that he was mere mortal. In fact, many will bet their lifes work that Wayne Rosseland was the devil himself.

When the body of a young woman is discovered in the Lane of Many Heads, an alley in modern-day Mecca, no one will claim it, as they are ashamed of her nakedness. As Detective Nasser pursues his investigation of the case, seemingly all of Mecca chimes in—including the Lane of Many Heads itself—in this “surreal, meditative take on a murder mystery” (The Guardian, Best Books of Summer). Nasser initially suspects that the dead woman is Aisha, one of the residents of the area, and searches her emails for clues. The world she paints embraces everything from crime and religious extremism to the exploitation of foreign workers by a mafia of building contractors, who are destroying the historic areas of the city. Another view reveals the city through the eyes of Yusuf, Aisha’s neighbor, increasingly frustrated by the accelerating pace of change. As gripping as classic noir, nuanced as a Nabokov novel, and labyrinthine as the alleys of Mecca itself, this brilliant fever dream of a novel masterfully reveals a city and a civilization in all its contradictions, at once beholden to brutal customs and uneasily coming to terms with new traditions.

We will not have unity until we get on the same page'. We cannot get on the same page until we get in the same books' (The Books that were lost and are now being found.) "For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart" (Heb. 4:12). With this book, You Shall Know the Truth, we invite you to "study to show thyself approved unto God, a Workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of Truth. All scripture is God-breathed and is profitable for Doctrine, for reproof, for correction; for instruction in righteousness; that the man of God may be fully furnished in all good works" (2 Tim. 3:15""17)

Former United States Marine Brian Steidle served for six months in Darfur as an unarmed military observer for the African Union. There he witnessed first-hand the ongoing genocide, and documented every day of his experience using email, audio journals, notebook after notebook and nearly 1,000 photographs. Gretchen Steidle Wallace, his sister, who wrote this book with Brian, corresponded with him throughout his time in Darfur. Fired upon, taken hostage, a witness to villages destroyed and people killed, frustrated by his mission's limitations and the international community's reluctance to intervene, Steidle resigned and has since become an advocate for the world to step in and stop this genocide. The Devil Came on Horseback depicts the tragic impact of an Arab government bent on destroying its black African citizens, the maddening complexity of international inaction in response to blatant genocide, and the awkward, yet heroic transformation of a former Marine turned humanitarian. It is a gripping and moving memoir that bears witness to atrocities we have too long averted our eyes from, and reveals that the actions of just one committed person have the power to change the world.
