A computer techie by trade, Dewey Pellicano would rather swallow needles than be pinned down to a life of quilting. But when her mother passes away, Dewey must exchange code for calico as the new proprietress of Quilter Paradiso. Between learning the business and dealing with a conniving employee who is also her sister-in-law, Dewey is ready to snap. During a national quilt show, quilting celebrity Claire Armstrong offers to buy the shop. But before Dewey can accept, she finds the famous quilter lying dead on the floor—a bloody rotary cutter at her side. When hunky homicide detective Buster Healy enters the scene, romance flourishes...until another murder takes place. Can Dewey thread together the pieces to this murderous pattern before the killer strikes again? Wild Goose Chase is the first book in the Quilting Mystery series featuring amateur sleuth Dewey Pellicano.

It was 1992 and everybody was against me so I got up really early and placed a call to the U.S. embassy in Bamako, the capital of Mali.... I told Scott ( was going to Timbuktu. He asked me if he could have my TV set if I didn't come back. I said yes. Then he asked me why I was going. Because, I replied, there's a wild goose honking in my ear...and the bastard won't shut up! So begins the latest gonzo journey by filmmaker Trent Harris (Rubin and Ed, Plan l0 from Outer Space), this one by plane, boat, camel, and pen. Following the wild goose, Harris travels to Timbuktu, choosing his destination in part because it's just so damned hard to get to. Chronicling the details of his trip -- along with assorted other thoughts, historical tidbits, memories, and unrelated tangents -- Harris leads us on a funny and ultimately poignant trip.

Drawing on more than thirty years of ministry experience, Father Dave Pivonka, T.O.R., walks readers through a new way of relating to the Holy Spirit by sharing personal encounters, including an experience that changed his life. What he learned along the way will lead readers to have their own unique encounter and discover the joy of living a life moved by the Spirit. Catholics know God as their father and Jesus as their friend, yet most bypass the third person of the Holy Trinity in their spiritual lives. In this essential guide for those who want to recognize and receive the Holy Spirit, Franciscan priest Dave Pivonka takes readers on his journey as a twenty-something Catholic encountering the Holy Spirit and Charismatic movement for the first time. Breath of God: Living a Life Led by the Holy Spirit dives into the scriptures that convinced Pivonka to pursue a life in the Spirit and shows readers how God’s Spirit is present and active in everyday life. Pivonka’s experience and compelling stories of faith from the lives of those to whom he ministers demonstrate how receiving the Holy Spirit allows the love between the Father and the Son, which animated Jesus’ life on earth, to pour into the hearts of God’s people.

Canada geese are the aristocrats of North American water fowl. Wary and keen of eye, these handsome birds fly with ... grace and agility -- clever and noble adversaries for the hunters whose prize they are. In this ... novel ... outdoorsman and wildlife expert Mel Ellis recounts the adventures and journeys of Duke, a wild Canada goose, during a two-year period of his life. Based on Mr. Ellis' ... observations of a real gander's experiences, the story is an exciting saga of Duke's incredible will to live as he faces and overcomes the dangers both man and nature place in his path. Told from Duke's point of view, 'Wild Goose, Brother Goose' describes his loyalty to his mate, who, pinioned so she cannot fly, is unable to join him in flight; his care of their fledglings after her sudden and untimely death: and his encounters with almost certain disasters in the form of hunters' guns, traps, tornadoes, and starvation. At the novel's conclusion, Duke again displays remarkable courage, and that unique brand of intelligence that so many wild creatures seem to possess, when he guides a wounded Canada female many miles over ice and snow to safety ... Not only do we learn a great deal about the Canada goose ... but much about human nature as well ...
