Book excerpt: Jeff Michael Walker, a successful lawyer in Dallas, Texas, finds the woman of his dreams. But she isn't what he thinks she is, and her presence in his life spells almost immediate trouble. Her deadly glance, and the mystery surrounding her, pulls Walker deeper into a web of deception and conspiracy, while his personal life falls apart. The death of his law partner and the abduction of his good friend lead Jeff further into the dark story, until he finds himself on the edge of a potential worldwide disaster. Our story begins with Jeff, a retired national security officer and spy, who seems to have found his calling as a lawyer, political consultant, and playboy in Dallas. He and his partners, Bob Wright and Lil Turner, have formed Walker, Wright, and Turner, a law firm specializing in trade matters and governmental affairs. Each partner brings a specific piece of the puzzle, and the firm is soon known as one of the brightest stars on the horizon. Within a few short weeks, everything begins to go wrong for both the firm and its partners. Bob uncovers an ominous connection between Washington and an organization called World One. This organization, which calls itself a non-profit organization for American Youth, is making some suspicious moves, and calling in favors from some very powerful people. Bob uncovers a secret membership list of the mysterious organization, and gains access to some of their darkest plans. Before he knows it, Bob has asked one too many questions, and finds himself on the wrong side of an explosive device. His death, and the mysterious events surrounding it, put both Jeff and Lil on the run, fearing for both their lives and the safety of the people they love. Instead of going into hiding, Jeff faces the threats head on; he's worked in the intelligence community, and he knows how to handle himself. Jeff has inside information and secret emails from Bob, and he and Lil are the only ones who can expose World One for what it is. Foreign interests, led by a man the U.S. knows as Al Chord, have woven a deep web of influence in local and national governments, law enforcement departments, and even military organizations. That organization - and those influences - are leading Al Chord directly to the top.

Book excerpt: From The New York Times bestselling author of Prayers for Sale comes the moving and powerful story of a small town after a devastating avalanche, and the life changing effects it has on the people who live there Whiter Than Snow opens in 1920, on a spring afternoon in Swandyke, a small town near Colorado's Tenmile Range. Just moments after four o'clock, a large split of snow separates from Jubilee Mountain high above the tiny hamlet and hurtles down the rocky slope, enveloping everything in its path including nine young children who are walking home from school. But only four children survive. Whiter Than Snow takes you into the lives of each of these families: There's Lucy and Dolly Patch—two sisters, long estranged by a shocking betrayal. Joe Cobb, Swandyke's only black resident, whose love for his daughter Jane forces him to flee Alabama. There's Grace Foote, who hides secrets and scandal that belies her genteel façade. And Minder Evans, a civil war veteran who considers his cowardice his greatest sin. Finally, there's Essie Snowball, born Esther Schnable to conservative Jewish parents, but who now works as a prostitute and hides her child's parentage from all the world. Ultimately, each story serves as an allegory to the greater theme of the novel by echoing that fate, chance, and perhaps even divine providence, are all woven into the fabric of everyday life. And it's through each character's defining moment in his or her past that the reader understands how each child has become its parent's purpose for living. In the end, it's a novel of forgiveness, redemption, survival, faith and family.
