Book excerpt: Stella Sullivan just wants to forget. But forgetting that night isn't possible. She's now navigating life with constant anxiety and nightmares she can't escape, even after her mom got a job offer that took her far away from the living reminder of what had happened. With this fresh start, Stella plans on staying under the radar—no friends, no extracurriculars, no distractions, and especially no boys. That is, until she meets her new neighbors. With emerald eyes and dark hair, Cade Carver is everything she desperately needs to avoid, but that proves to be impossible when his sister, Brooke, becomes the one person capable of breaking her rule. As their friendship grows, Brooke's dark secret comes to light, forcing Stella to confront the demons of her past. She's the only one who can discover the truth of what really happened to Brooke. But will Stella risk everything to uncover it ... even if it means losing the one boy she never planned on falling for? Sometimes, the truth is better left buried.

Book excerpt: In The Wicked Truth: When Good People Do Bad Things, now available at Amazon.com, author Suzanne Ross uses the lyrics and story of the Tony award winning musical, Wicked, to challenge the understanding of good and evil that forms the framework of our culture, and to offer solutions to the endless, escalating cycle of justified violence. By exposing the flawed and fatal logic of how to be good that drive the musicals plot, Ross reveals how being good can lead to scapegoating and violence. As Elphaba and Glinda, the witches of Oz, move from loathing to competition to true friendship, the author guides readers to examine the comfortable certainty of their own personal goodness and begin to grapple with their own capacity for evil. Exhorting readers to embrace the murky grey of uncertainty, Ross proposes a Creed of Compassion that would allow readers to join the witches in singing, I have been changed for good. The Wicked Truth examines the play Wicked, the musical prequel to the Wizard of Oz, for the moral and ethical issues introduced by the death of the wickedest witch that ever was. When the story of Elphaba, the talented but misunderstood green-skinned outcast who becomes the enemy of the Wizard and all of Oz, is told by Glinda the Good, Elphabas former classmate, a new picture emerges. Was she truly wicked or was wickedness thrust upon [her]? As the story unfolds, Ross explains the mechanism of scapegoating that ensnares the characters, a system where an innocent person or group is vilified and ultimately sacrificed for the benefit and unification of the community. To further the readers understanding, the author enriches her explanations with historical and personal examples. Thedeepening action of the play convincingly illustrates Ross argument that the way society defines being go

At least that's the plan. Until it all falls apart.

Book excerpt: A little-known moment in colonial history that changed the course of America’s future. A riveting account of a brutal killing, an all-out manhunt, and the first murder trial in America, set against the backdrop of the Pequot War (between the Pequot tribe and the colonists of Massachusetts Bay) that ended this two-year war and brought about a peace that allowed the colonies to become a nation. The year: 1638. The setting: Providence, near Plymouth Colony. A young Nipmuc tribesman returning home from trading beaver pelts is fatally stabbed in a robbery in the woods near Plymouth Colony by a vicious white runaway indentured servant. The tribesman, fighting for his life, is able with his final breaths to reveal the details of the attack to Providence’s governor, Roger Williams. A frantic manhunt by the fledgling government ensues to capture the killer and his gang, now the most hunted men in the New World. With their capture, the two-year-old Plymouth Colony faces overnight its first trial—a murder trial—with Plymouth’s governor presiding as judge and prosecutor,interviewing witnesses and defendants alike, and Myles Standish, Plymouth Colony authority, as overseer of the courtroom, his sidearm at the ready. The jury—Plymouth colonists, New England farmers (“a rude and ignorant sorte,” as described by former governor William Bradford)—white, male, picked from a total population of five hundred and fifty, knows from past persecutions the horrors of a society without a jury system. Would they be tempted to protect their own—including a cold-blooded murderer who was also a Pequot War veteran—over the life of a tribesman who had fought in a war allied against them? Tobey Pearl brings to vivid life those caught up in the drama: Roger Williams, founder of Plymouth Colony, a self-taught expert in indigenous cultures and the first investigator of the murder; Myles Standish; Edward Winslow, a former governor of Plymouth Colony and the master of the indentured servant and accused murderer; John Winthrop, governor of Massachusetts Bay Colony; the men on trial for the murder; and the lone tribesman, from the last of the Woodland American Indians, whose life was brutally taken from him. Pearl writes of the witnesses who testified before the court and of the twelve colonists on the jury who went about their duties with grave purpose, influenced by a complex mixture of Puritan religious dictates, lingering medieval mores, new ideals of humanism, and an England still influenced by the last gasp of the English Renaissance. And she shows how, in the end, the twelve came to render a groundbreaking judicial decision that forever set the standard for American justice. An extraordinary work of historical piecing-together; a moment that set the precedence of our basic, fundamental right to trial by jury, ensuring civil liberties and establishing it as a safeguard against injustice.
