Ash Van Otterloo

The magical story of a hex that goes haywire, and the power of friendship to set things right! In the town of Howler's Hollow, conjuring magic is strictly off-limits. Only nothing makes Delpha McGill's skin crawl more than rules. So when she finds her family's secret book of hexes, she's itching to use it to banish her mama's money troubles. She just has to keep it quieter than a church mouse -- not exactly Delpha's specialty.Trouble is, Katybird Hearn is hankering to get her hands on the spell book, too. The daughter of a rival witching family, Katy has reasons of her own for wanting to learn forbidden magic, and she's not going to let an age-old feud or Delpha's contrary ways stop her. But their quarrel accidentally unleashes a hex so heinous it resurrects a graveyard full of angry Hearn and McGill ancestors bent on total destruction. If Delpha and Katy want to reverse the spell in time to save everyone in the Hollow from rampaging zombies, they'll need to mend fences and work together.Fans of A Snicker of Magic and The Witch Boy will love this funny, folksy, fresh debut from Ash Van Otterloo that proves sometimes it takes two witches to make the strongest magic happen.

How DNA and Genealogy Solved a Cold Case Double Murder

When Tanya Van Cuylenborg and Jay Cook were murdered during a trip to Seattle in the 1980s, detectives had few leads. They assumed Tanya and Jay were victims of a serial killer - but without any leads, the case seemed doomed. In deep-freeze, long-term storage, biological evidence from the crime sat waiting. Meanwhile, CeCe Moore began her fascination with genetic genealogy, discovering how it could be used to solve crimes. When Detective Jim Scharf decided to test the cold case's decades-old DNA, he hoped he would bring closure to families. He didn't know that he and Moore would make history.

I no longer have a Kindle paperwhite and thought that someone else may be able to make use of my old cover. The edges are a little worn, but it still holds together nicely. It's a deep purple color with gray suede-like fabric on the inside. There's also a little pocket inside to keeps some notes.

A memoir of sorts, "The Last American Man" follows the life of Eustace Conway as he lives on the land and shows that everyone can do it just like he can. He's met numerous people, presented thousands of times, has an unbelievable work ethic, and won't stop u til he accomplishes his goals. At times frustrating, this book was an interesting read and fascinating peak into the life of Eustace Conway.

There is slight wear on the cover, but this copy has never been read before. Just moved from one shelf to the other over the years. 

Cold Harbor 1864

Ernest Furgurson, author of Ashes of Glory and Chancellorsville 1863, brings his talents to a pivotal and often neglected Civil War battle–the fierce, unremitting slaughter at Cold Harbor, Virginia, which ended the lives of 10,000 Union soldiers.

In June of 1864, the Army of the Potomac attacked heavily entrenched Confederate forces outside of Richmond, hoping to break the strength of Robert E. Lee and take the capital. Facing almost certain death, Union soldiers pinned their names to their uniforms in the forlorn hope that their bodies would be identified and buried. Furgurson sheds new light on the personal conflicts that led to Grant’s worst defeat and argues that it was a watershed moment in the war. Offering a panorama rich in detail and revealing anecdotes that brings the dark days of the campaign to life, Not War But Murder is historical narrative as compelling as any novel.
