Cliffhanger by A P Foster

Cliffhanger by A P Foster

Philip Sanders lost his perfect life when his wife fell from 25,000 feet. Then the evidence began to surface — and the truth became stranger than grief. When he discovers that his wife may still be alive and tied to the city’s darkest secrets, Philip is forced into a world of crime, exploitation, lies, and ruthless control. As he searches for answers, he unravels not just her identity, but his own. Every falsehood he exposes brings him closer to the truth – and to death. But… She disappeared. The truth didn't

Gifts of Discruption

Gifts of Discruption

n Gifts of Disruption, Wei-Li Shao reflects on a period when the structures that quietly organized his life—health, achievement, independence—collapsed after a life-threatening diagnosis, brain surgery with uncertain outcomes, and a recovery that forced him to reconsider how he had been living. What follows is not just a story about illness, but an exploration of how meaning, assumptions, and priorities shift when certainty recedes. Written with clarity and restraint, this memoir examines the space between control and surrender, ambition and presence, fear and gratitude. Shao considers how identity, responsibility, and purpose are tested—and how disruption can create the rare opportunity to step back and see more clearly.

The Cover UP

Book Two of the Zone of Deceit Trilogy Philip Sanders played a part in exposing the biggest New York crime scandal in decades. But the cost was great. His wife is dead, his son cannot accept her loss, and someone is still coming after Philip. Danger escalates when Ellie's final documentary is unexpectedly released, bringing personal threats and disparaging rumors. Philip loses the support of colleagues and friends. Isolated, he digs deep into the film, searching for answers. But what he finds takes him even further away from home and family, at greater risk than ever. He's sent a message that changes everything, but it may be a lie that costs his life. Is it all a trap? Of course, but it’s not the only one. Philip Sanders is deep in the Zone of Deceit.

Bella Delafleur Atom-Smasher Wilkins

The only thing 15-year-old Bella Wilkins dislikes more than public restrooms is discovering that her phone can no longer get a signal. Add to this a recurring migraine, a needy best friend, sudden popularity at school, and a gut-punching revelation at home, and Bella begins to question whether she’s losing her grip on reality. At the heart of these troubling developments is a high-tech device of unknown purpose, which she built based on design schematics sent to her anonymously, then switched on.

Winning is for those navigating the emotional, psychological, and legal aftermath of toxic relationships—where the conflict may continue long after the separation. Jackie Miller explains how emotional abuse rewires the brain, keeps you stuck in survival mode, and makes peace feel out of reach.
