Coven of the Soul Sisters

 

Laverne Stewart

Best-selling author Laverne Stewart (Angels and the Afterlife; Healing After Homicide, Haunted Heart) offers a gripping new read with Coven of the Soul Sisters. Her novel chronicles the plight of those accused of witchcraft and sentenced to death in 1690s New England. Then, this intriguing novel catapults forward into current times where reincarnated victims and persecutors of the past find themselves again grappling with religious beliefs and zealots inflicting suffering on non-believers – and witchcraft to some remains an unforgivable sin punishable by death.

 

“Eloquent, well written and researched… Stewart draws you in and holds you captive. As you turn the pages you cannot help but hold your breath knowing what may lie ahead. The fictionalized account of one of the darker periods in American history seems more real than dramatized. A stunning achievement. “

- Tracy Riva, Midwest Book Review

 

“… Coven of the Soul Sisters … was almost a memory of sorts. This could have been one of my past lives. Laverne weaves a story that brings emotions to the surface and makes you feel that you are one of the characters. You just need to keep reading to see what will happen next.”  - Patti LeBlanc, Spiritual intuitive.

“Being of Irish decent and living in Atlantic Canada, I dove into Coven of the Soul Sisters with anticipation of reading a story about my people from afar and the First Nations communities that welcomed us to this beautiful land. Author, Laverne Stewart was clever to keep me wondering the country origin of the Celtic couple that boarded the ship, in the 1600’s, as they fled witch hunts to find peace with relatives in the New England states of America. Curiosity taunted me to the end. We all have our own way to savour a good read. Mine is to never to turn back a page. I believe my first take on my first read is what I need!

Journalist on Trial

Fighting Corruption, Media Muzzling and a 5,00-year Pirson Sentence in Liberia

 

Rodney D. Sieh

Journalist on Trial is the captivating story of Rodney D. Sieh, one of Africa's finest investigative journalists. This story will resonate with virtually every journalist today in an era consumed by daily tweets of a sitting US President and a 24-hour news cycle that has seen real news eclipsed by fake news, and attempts to muzzle the free press. As publisher of Liberia's leading newspaper, FrontPageAfrica, Sieh’s explosive reports have led to arrests, prosecutions and investigations of prominent Liberian government officials. Sentenced to 5,000 years in prison for a trumped-up libel charge in 2013 (an attempt to stop him from exposing government corruption), Sieh’s arrest and jailing triggered an international outcry with journalist rights groups (reporters from The New York Times, Toronto Star, BBC) securing his release. Sieh’s work landed him among Reporters Without Borders' Information Heroes of 2014. As a reporter for the Daily Observer newspaper and the British Broadcasting Corporation, Sieh’s coverage of the deaths and disappearances that followed Yahya Jammeh’s coup d’état on July 22nd, 1994, forced him once again into exile to London, where he fled in 1994. He later took refuge in the United States.

– Brooke Gladstone, Editor, WNYC Radio show On The Media

 

“Civil war, coups and corruption, you name it, Sieh has chronicled it… This is his story: one of courage, principle and afflicting the powerful.”

Little Sister

Vince Fernandez

 

 

 

Mila Mirkin and John Lister want success any way they can get it. For Mila, that means getting to grad school. For John, it means getting his failing hedge fund back on track. Following the mysterious death of  Toronto’s top financial prosecutor, Mila’s brother, Vitaly, is transferred to the role. His first case is against John, Mila’s primary client. As John’s ruthless plan unfolds, Vitaly’s investigation threatens its success  and Mila’s  safety. John pulls Mila ever closer for comfort, leaving her in a terrible quandary: tell her brother what she knows and expose her secret life, or pretend innocence and put the lives of others in mortal danger.

 

“…medical devices can be hijacked with a few keystrokes…. the sooner the deaths of the insured, the better the financial returns of investors… This alarming reality is why Vince Fernandez wrote Little Sister. His chilling debut novel… puts a new spin on an old question: How far will you go to get what you want? I find few things more riveting than a good story that peels back the professional veneer of financial power brokers and exposes the underbelly of their corruption, greed, sexual predation, and revenge. With Little Sister, Vince succeeds in doing just that.”
 - Norb Vonnegut, author of thrillers Top Producer, Gods of Greenwich Village, Mr. President, and The Trust, contributing columnist, Wall Street Journal online (WSJ.com)
 
 About the Author
 Vince Fernandez is a financial professional with more than twenty years of experience investing in capital markets. In zen moments, when he is not typing with two fingers, he enjoys sabre fencing, fishing, and carving wooden kayak paddles. Vince currently lives in Toronto with his family. Little Sister is his first novel.
