In October 1996, thirty Ugandan schoolgirls were abducted by the Lord's Resistance Army and disappeared into the bush of Northern Uganda. The girls were raped and tortured before being forced to become child soldiers and sex slaves. This was only one out of thousands of child kidnappings by merciless madman and rebel leader Joseph Kony. But for the battered civilians terrorized by rebel warfare and neglected by corrupt government, this was the breaking point. Something had to be done—the world needed to know and their girls needed to be brought home. Kathy Cook's one-on-one interviews with the surviving girls and their mothers make their fear, frustration, and suffering overwhelmingly real. With exceptional insight gained from on-location research, Cook gives us an authoritative account of how concerned parents, interfaith groups, politicians from Canada and the United States, and NGOs banded together in a struggle to rescue the girls and to mobilize a people, their country, and a global community. An emotionally charged retelling of a heartbreaking true story, Stolen Angels reminds us of the importance of faith, strength, and determination in the face of adversity.

Since the beginning of civilization, we have always wanted the answers to many timeless questions about life and the afterlife. Though we have developed immense knowledge and powerful technologies, life has always remained a mystery to us. We want to know about God, i.e. whether it is a person or a power. We want to know about Maya, life after death, consciousness, the reasons for existence, the purpose of life, advanced species, reincarnation, the theory of karma, bodies within human bodies, ghosts and supernatural powers and so on. This book takes you on a journey that shows you how civilizations created structures that control us, manipulate us and use us according to it. At the same time, it reveals the hidden secrets of human life and a consciousness, which is the self-aware energy and philosophy of God, and its relation with the ultimate creation.This has always been the master of all secrets since the birth of the civilizations and we have always been trying to decode it. So let's be a part of the journey that explores our journey from the source to the destination, of the infinite, in the light of the basic scientific and logical knowledge we have. Here we shall also explore the reason behind the law of attraction and the great karma theory.

What can have driven three professional, ordinary men - a surveyor, an accountant and an architect - to the desperate act of suicide? Such is the question facing Chief Inspector James Talbot and journalist Catherine Reed, seeking to find a link to the deaths and a series of desecrations in a local cemetery. Every grave belonged to a child. As Catherine investigates these outrages, her brother discovers that a number of children at the school where he teaches appear to be exhibiting signs of abuse. It would appear that what everyone feared is becoming a reality - a full scale child abuse ring seems to be in operation. But the spectre of child abuse is merely the tip of a terrifying iceberg. As the race to discover the truth becomes increasingly urgent, Catherine and Talbot find that something much darker could be responsible, which threatens not just life but sanity itself.

An ocelot. A slave. An angel thief. Multiple perspectives spanning across time are united through themes of freedom, hope, and faith in a most unusual and epic novel from Newbery Honor–winning author and National Book Award finalist Kathi Appelt. Sixteen-year-old Cade Curtis is an angel thief. After his mother’s family rejected him for being born out of wedlock, he and his dad moved to the apartment above a local antique shop. The only payment the owner Mrs. Walker requests: marble angels, stolen from graveyards, for her to sell for thousands of dollars to collectors. But there’s one angel that would be the last they’d ever need to steal; an angel, carved by a slave, with one hand open and one hand closed. If only Cade could find it… Zorra, a young ocelot, watches the bayou rush past her yearningly. The poacher who captured and caged her has long since lost her, and Zorra is getting hungrier and thirstier by the day. Trapped, she only has the sounds of the bayou for comfort—but it tells her help will come soon. Before Zorra, Achsah, a slave, watched the very same bayou with her two young daughters. After the death of her master, Achsah is free, but she’ll be damned if her daughters aren’t freed with her. All they need to do is find the church with an angel with one hand open and one hand closed… In a masterful feat, National Book Award Honoree Kathi Appelt weaves together stories across time, connected by the bayou, an angel, and the universal desire to be free.

On her hands and knees, Nikki moved to the other side of the body. She couldn't stop her fingers from trembling as she brushed the dark hair off the victim's face. She couldn't look away. "I know her..." When Special Agent Nikki Hunt is called to the Boundary Waters near Stillwater, Minnesota, it's not just the cold that shocks her to her core: the body of a young woman has been found frozen beside a remote lake. Nikki is devastated to see the victim is her childhood friend Annmarie, and she recognizes the velvet ribbon tied in her hair as the hallmark of a serial killer who she has been hunting for years. Desperate for justice, Nikki throws herself into the case. But she is shaken by what she finds at Annmarie's home: a dead-bolt on her front door and a map in the spare room, with the locations of murdered women circled in thick, red marker. Did Annmarie know she was next? Then Nikki finds out that the killer has left a clue in Annmarie's bedroom: a photo of Nikki's mother that no one has ever seen. Has the murderer at large been in Nikki's life since she was a child? Nikki soon realizes that the key to unlocking this case is in her own family, but digging up the past could put her own daughter in danger.
