The purpose turned out to be a town: Henry Adams, Kansas, one of the last surviving townships founded by freed slaves after the Civil War. The failing town had put itself up for sale on the Internet, so Bernadine bought it. Trent July is the mayor, and watching the town of his birth slide into debt and foreclosure is about the hardest thing he's ever done.

Not everyone in town wants to get on board though; they don't want change. But Bernadine and Trent, along with his first love, Lily Fontaine, are determined to preserve the town's legacy while ushering in a new era with ties to its unique past and its promising future.

Bringing Back the Dead

Newly retired from the U.S. Army Special Forces, and settling into a quiet retirement in the American Southwest, Ted Hickman thought he'd seen his last battle. Then he picked up the phone... After the horrors of Vietnam, for Larry Yoder, the study of theology made the world make sense again. Until his work as a Pastor took him to Belle Glade, Florida. A town built on dark secrets, and run by an old boy network bent on keeping them buried. Two qualities that made Yoder's devotion to faith and honesty dangerous. And although you won't hear it from the local cops, maybe had something to do with his sudden disappearence. Except, Yoder knows a few people whose loyalty lies outside Belle Glade's channels of power. Like Ted Hickman. Long ago, as a special forces commander in Vietnam, Hickman made a pledge to defend Yoder's life at any cost. So when Hickman gets the call that Yoder is missing, it doesn't take much convincing to get him and some of the old Vietnam "A" team on the first plane to Belle Glade. A place, located dead in the center of the Florida Everglades, where men with skills honed in the jungles of Southeast Asia might prove useful in getting some answers...

Bringing Out the Dead
by Joe ConnellyPerhaps only someone who has worked for a decade as a paramedic in Hell's Kitchen -- as Joe Connelly has -- could write a novel as rivetting and fiercely authentic as "Bringing Out The Dead. " Like a reporter at the front, Connelly writes from deep inside the experience, and the result is electrifying. In Frank Pierce, an EMS medic, Connelly gives us a man who is being destroyed by the job of saving people's lives. Addicted to the thrill ("the best drug in the world"), the adventure, and the mission of it, after five years Frank is nevertheless drowning in accumulated grief and guilt: his own and others' ("I grew to understand that my primary role was less about saving lives than about bearing witness"). His wife has left him, he's drinking too much and on the job, and just a month ago, he "helped to kill" Rose, an 18-year-old suffering from asthma. Now Rose won't let him be: he sees her everywhere, she's the waking nightmare of all his failures, both hallucination and projection, yet as realto him as his most intimate thoughts. And it's perhaps in reaction to her death that Frank desperately resurrects Patrick Burke, a patient for w
