This thrilling addition to the bestselling Private series transports readers inside the halls of the Vatican itself when a priest is murdered--and the new lead agent at Private is the number one suspect.

Jack Morgan, ex-Marine helicopter pilot and CIA agent, is in Italy to open the latest outpost of his international private investigation firm. Its wealthy client base demands maximum force and maximum discretion.
But when a priest is murdered at the firm's opening party, Morgan and Matteo Ricci--a decorated former Rome police inspector, now Morgan's newly appointed deputy--come under intense scrutiny. As Morgan and Ricci work the case, they discover that eight priests have died, all under watch of the Swiss Guard and the Vatican Police.
Private relies on the world's most advanced forensic tools to make and break cases. This one rests on breaking the secret hold of the Holy See's all-powerful, all knowing inner circle.

The fate of magic rests in the hands (and claws) of a cranky dragon, a feisty apprentice...and a prince who may not be all he seems? Get ready for the sequel to the New York Times bestselling hilarious fantasy adventure in the new series from the author of the Story Thieves.

You were warned to stay away from THE DRAGON'S APPRENTICE. It was forbidden for a good reason, as it told the story of a village girl named Ciara finding her own book of magic and learning spells from a dragon of all things. These are dangerous ideas, and no one should be allowed to see them.

Fortunately, Ciara's story didn't end there, or she might have doomed us all. No, thankfully, a true hero to the Draconic Empire, Prince Aiden, has come to Ciara's village to stop her and her teacher, Scorch the dragon. The prince, like his father the Emperor, is a powerful magic-user. And Aiden uses his power to keep us safe from strange, forbidden books. If anyone can stop Ciara from teaching others magic and therefore summoning the horrible Revenants that once defeated the Dragon Mage herself, it's the Empire's beloved prince.

Let's just hope that Ciara can't spread her knowledge of magic before the prince can find her and put an end to her evil deeds once and for all...

After being overlooked by his powerful father, he soon realizes that the only way to get his rightful spot is to part ways with the only people he s known as family and create his own crew.

Vengeance, murder, and violent political games are on a collision course in a propulsive Jonathan Grave thriller by New York Times bestselling author John Gilstrap.

Disgraced U.S. President Darmond has been ousted from office, but his minions have taken aim at everyone they perceive to be enemies. Off-the-record contractors on a secret list are being eliminated, one by one.

Jonathan Grave and his Security Solutions team manage to turn the tables when the assassins come for them. But the ultimate attack will strike deep at the heart of what's best about American values.

High-tech weapons, terror-driven fanatics, and top-level betrayal shred the peace of a peaceful gathering in the rolling hills of rural North Carolina. In this showdown, the winner will take all.

"Go and make disciples" is one of Jesus's greatest commandments (Matthew 28:19-20). How do you know if you are truly making disciples? Jesus' discipleship strategy turned the world upside down (Acts 17:6). While Jesus ministered to the crowds, the Scriptures show us He spent the majority of His time in ministry, training 12 disciples while taking 3 of them a little deeper in prayer and ministry and 1 even deeper.

One-on-One Discipleship: 52 Lessons Designed to Help Disciples Make Disciples of Jesus was written with that in mind. The discipleship strategy is simple. This interactive workbook is designed to be used by two believers intentionally discipling one another over the course of a year by developing a weekly routine using Scripture, memorization, prayer, accountability, conversation, and fellowship. With sections on crucial directions, essential disciplines, and foundational doctrines, you'll be well-equipped to grow spiritually and walk out your faith in Christ with another disciple.

Jesus wants us to be disciples and make disciples. Truthfully, we aren't being disciples until we are making disciples. The commitment and process can be challenging but doable and fulfilling. Whether you're a new believer or have been saved for thirty years, this discipleship process will help you put your faith into practice while growing with another believer in Christ. Start making disciples today and do as the Apostle Paul said, "And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others" (2 Timothy 2:2).

UNA GRAN ESTRELLA AMADA POR EL PÚBLICO

Ágata Belmonte, la mayor diva del cine español, ha muerto. Mientras el país llora su pérdida, su sobrina Malena, que llevaba dieciséis años sin dirigirle la palabra, se ve obligada a regresar a Madrid y hacer frente al recuerdo de alguien a quien nunca ha podido perdonar.

UNA MUJER ODIADA POR SU ÚNICA FAMILIA

A ojos del público, Ágata fue un icono. Para Malena, en cambio, fue una mujer egocéntrica y cruel, obsesionada con su imagen y su carrera. Por eso, en cuanto tuvo la oportunidad, huyó de su lado. Y quizá por eso le resulta tan desconcertante que su tía le haya legado lo más valioso que poseía: el relato de su vida. Y con él, una sospecha inquietante: probablemente lo más doloroso de Ágata no fueran sus mentiras, sino todo lo que eligió callar.

UN SECRETO QUE SOLO PUEDE SALIR A LA LUZ DESPUÉS DE LA MUERTE

En ocho cintas de vídeo, grabadas por un joven -e irresistible documentalista, la actriz lo confiesa todo. A través de ellas, Malena podrá reconstruir no solo el pasado de su tía, sino el suyo propio. Una traición imperdonable, un secreto devastador y un amor más grande que cualquier estrella.

Rodrigue, PhD, author of Freedom's Crescent, finalist for the 2024 Gilder Lehrman Lincoln Prize and recipient of the John L. Nau III Prize in Civil War Studies

Lincoln in New England revisits the important towns where Lincoln spoke and the pivotal figures that helped define the great issues leading to the Civil War. Readers join native New Englander and Lincoln historian David J. Kent as he travels back in time to examine the nation's downward spiral into conflict.

Readers will explore the crucial issues that predicated the civil war, the birth of the Republican Party as an anti-slavery faction, and New England's own short-lived flirtation with secession in the spirit of independence. Through the book's first-person travelogue style, historical maps with redrawn routes, original writings from Lincoln himself, insight from Lincoln historians, and black and white photographs, readers gain a full picture of the region's vital influence leading up to the Civil War.

Hiking and backpacking are unique "sports" which require a unique blend of strength, conditioning, and athleticism unlike most recreational physical endeavors. People need strength to climb steep ascents, conditioning to endure long mile days, and athleticism to handle their own body on rugged terrain. Now add on the harsh, rugged conditions of the mountains and it can be a recipe for struggle - but it doesn't have to be.

Hike Strong: The Complete Guide to Building Trail Strength, Endurance, and Confidence for Hiking and Backpacking will help alleviate the "fitness anxiety" that some can experience when thinking about tackling the mountain they've always wanted to climb. Written by a licensed hiking guide and professional strength and conditioning coach, this book will be a transformative fitness guide designed for outdoor enthusiasts who want to confidently enjoy the trail. This guide will offer a practical, step-by-step approach to preparing readers both physically and mentally so they can arrive at any trailhead fully confident in their abilities. The tools and programming they'll learn will help them feel strong and perform well from trailhead to summit and back again.

In Hike Strong, readers will find training programs that combine strength-building, conditioning, balance, and mobility tailored specifically to the demands of hiking and backpacking. They'll also learn the "why" and "how" behind these programs. Conventional wisdom has told people to "just go running" to get in shape for hiking. This guide takes a vastly different approach and instead teaches that strength training is the way to properly prepare oneself for the demands of the backcountry. The author's training modalities have been proven over and over by the successful results his clients have experienced in the mountains following his training program. This book will inspire readers to be excited to embark on new adventures, knowing they have the tools to make every step of the adventure a rewarding one.
