How did five older women called the Marvelous Mavens convince confident PhD candidate Darly Lane that she is an idiot?

Weeks earlier, she was roaring through her PhD, kindling a romance with her hot advisor, and planning a great summer with her Boston roommates. In short, a perfect time to embark on a resume builder. She revived her late mother’s academic project about the women’s movement, expecting no new revelations.

The five strangers she brought together to question prove to be confounding. Their wine-fueled meetings threaten her rigid academic methods. They unload decades of messy truths about career, marriage, motherhood, friendship, and sex. Their candor causes Darly to question her most basic assumptions.

The Mavens flourish in their new association, but Darly’s career, romance, and mental health languish.

The two generations can heal each other. But, will they?

Join Miso and Kili, two adventurous and skilled pilots as they soar through the skies on wondrous journeys! Set forth on a trip to a mysterious island inhabited by wild kitty cats and have an unforgettable adventure!

Seti I is most frequently known as the father of Ramesses II, but in fact, he was a great pharaoh himself, though with a relatively short reign of just eleven years. A great warrior king, a strategic thinker, and a man who knew the life of the ordinary people, he was an extraordinary ruler. His brand was excellence, and he used that in many forms to win his people to a king who was not born royal. A warrior with the soul of an artist, his Great Hypostyle Hall at Karnak is a wonder. His tomb in the Valley of the Kings is the most beautiful, with a burial chamber referred to as the "Sistine Chapel of Ancient Egypt." His mortuary temple in Abydos venerates the main deities of old Egypt with some of that ancient culture's most beautiful raised relief art.

It is that temple, the Temple of Seti, that forms the structure of this novel which attempts to recreate the diary of the pharaoh. It is written on the temple walls that the king kept a diary and had it hidden somewhere in the temple. As yet it has not been found, but one can easily imagine the king in the solitude of the night writing of his life, as he realizes his shortness of breath and pressure in the chest may mean it is the last year of that magnificent life. Temple in the Sand, the Memoirs of a Pharaoh is a tribute to the mysterious and beautiful sacred structure built by Pharaoh Seti I in Abydos and to the man behind the royal regalia.

A riveting tale of revenge, survival and redemption, wrapped around an unlikely love story and set against an urban backdrop corrupted by violence against women and racism.

Following a racially motivated rape by three Ku Klux Klansmen, 12-year-old Desiree Devine vows revenge. After eight years of training, now a strikingly beautiful assassin, she accomplishes her mission.

Her campaign continues with solitary walks through dark city streets, hoping to be assaulted by men with bad intentions. Those entrapped by her spider’s web pay dearly for their efforts.

Surrounded by three white men one night, she’s rescued by Tony Marino, an Italian-American passerby. A stormy up-and-down relationship ensues. Ultimately, as her rage matures into purposeful action, and as he begins to see the world through her eyes, they become a team.

Along the way, they encounter serial killers, wife-beaters, actual and would-be rapists, gangsters, crooked cops, a kidnapper and a pedophile priest, as well as numerous women in desperate need of their help. Beneath all the action, though, is the blossoming of a most unusual love story.
