Carol Malyon writes of women's lives, of their relationships with lovers, mothers, children, other women. She explores the relationships between memory and truth. "Lovers & Other Strangers" consists of small stories, snapshots of women's lives in specific times and situations. The setting and characters vary but the theme remains fixed: that there is a fundamental and irreconcilable discord between men and women, in their view of the world, their modes of communication, the way they view themselves, the way they view others. Carol Malyon's stories are nearly all unconventionally brief and intense in feeling. They are essentially a poet's stories but they most definitely are not that revolting hybrid prose-poetry'. This writing is hard, direct, forceful. She is among those writers who are forcing us to reconsider the nature and form of the short story in Canada. The stories are often prickly. They illuminate, but illuminate darkly. Malyon gazes down into the emotional chasm which seems to seperate men and women, parents and children, and the images she brings to the surface are not quite like anything you've read before ... though you recognize them and know they're true. Perhaps the only Canadian stories at all comparable are those of Carol Shields in "Various Miracles" and "The Orange Fish."

In Good Dad, Bad Dad: Whos Your Daddy?, V. Faithe Faust challenges the common phrase we are all Gods children and sets out to reveal that, on the contrary, we are not all Gods children because some people have a daddy name Satan. It is thought provoking and will most certainly get you thinking in a different way about the subject. The Author uses a wealth of Biblical references and interesting personal ideas to drive her point home. Faust will deal with questions such as: - Is the once saved always saved mantra true? - Can you still be a sinner and not know it? - Can Jesus really be the only way to God? - How do you know youre a true child of God? You will be sure to have something to discuss with others after reading her compelling work.

Book 13: Fatal Invasion, First the fire, then the heat… A brutal home invasion. Two small, traumatized survivors who may have witnessed the horror. Lieutenant Sam Holland has never worked a case quite like this one, in which her eye-witnesses are five-year-old twins. But when Sam steps up in a big way for them, she risks her heart as much as her career. While Sam and her husband, Vice President Nick Cappuano, go to battle in more ways than one for her tiny witnesses, her colleague Sergeant Tommy “Gonzo” Gonzales battles his own demons. Months of unbearable grief and despair come to a head in an unimaginable way that threatens Gonzo’s status with the department and his relationship with his fiancée, Christina. With trouble both at MPD headquarters and on the case, Sam struggles to keep her priorities straight at home and at work while trying not to lose her heart to her latest crime victims. Book 14: Fatal Reckoning, When tragedy strikes, a cold case suddenly turns hot—and deadly. A peaceful morning is shattered when Washington Metro Police lieutenant Sam Holland’s beloved father succumbs to injuries from an unsolved shooting while on duty four years ago. As the community rallies around Sam and her family, one thing becomes crystal clear: her father’s death has turned the unsolved case into a homicide—and it’s on her to bring her father’s killer to justice. But the case has been cold for years…until an anonymous tip that’s too shocking to believe leads Sam down a dark and dangerous path. Her husband, Vice President Nick Cappuano, knows if she can’t solve this case, it will haunt her for the rest of her life. She’ll need the strength of their bond to pull her out of the darkness before it’s too late, because as the missing pieces rapidly fall into place, Sam realizes the truth might just break her all the same—and that her father’s killer isn’t done yet… Book 15: Fatal Accusation, A deadly serious affair… The story breaks as Metro PD lieutenant Sam Holland attends a dinner party with her husband, Vice President Nick Cappuano: President Nelson is accused of having an affair. More shocking still, campaign staffer Tara Weber claims the president fathered her newborn son—while the First Lady was undergoing secret cancer treatment. When a high-profile murder case hits Sam’s desk, she’s shocked to uncover a connection to the presidential scandal. With the department caught up in its own internal scandals, and the chief’s job hanging by a thread, Sam questions who she can trust as her team uncovers information that clouds an already-murky case. And with calls for the president to resign getting louder by the minute, Sam needs to close this case before she finds herself living at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Book 16: Fatal Fraud, A dangerous truth revealed… A prominent member of the D.C. community has been murdered, pulling Lieutenant Sam Holland into yet another high-stakes homicide investigation that has her trying to connect the dots between a dead woman and the friends and family who’d turned against her right before her untimely death. With numerous scandals still fresh within the department’s ranks, Sam is under more than the usual amount of pressure on the job. All the while, Sam’s husband, Vice President Nick Cappuano, faces mounting calls to declare his intention to run for president in the coming election, leaving the second couple feeling the strain at home—and on the job as the family endures the first holidays without their beloved patriarch, Skip Holland. As always, when things become too hot to handle on the job, Sam and Nick turn to each other for solace in the storm.
