    A straight-A student, Emma Snow seems like a happy, normal child-and she would be, were it not for the continuous horrors she experiences at home. Emma Snow seems like an ordinary child. Perhaps a little quiet, with a hearing impairment...she's a straight-A student who loves to read. Emma lives with her two sisters, her father, and her stepmother in a house on Third Street. A house the neighbors avoid discussing. Within the walls of the Snow residence, Emma and her sisters are the target of a never-ending stream of military-style beatings and sexual assault. For ten years, Emma and her sisters suffer-with one short, blissful stay in a foster home showing them what life could be like. Emma lives on constant high alert, always waiting for her father's next explosion. All she wants is to live the life other little girls take for granted: To laugh. To be safe. To be a kid. When a crisis center counselor intervenes, it seems Emma and her sisters will finally be free of their tormenter. Surely the judge won't let Emma's abuser go free? But things don't always play out as they should, even when a child predator confesses his crimes.

    A Noble Queen: A Romance of Indian History by Philip Meadows Taylor is a novel written in three volumes that depicts one of the most important epochs in the history of the Deccan. The book features the life of the noble queen Chand Bibi who is remembered not only as the preserver of Bijapur, but for the heroic opposition she maintained against the Mughal armies in their first invasion of the Deccan and siege of Ahmednagar. Following an alliance policy, Chand Bibi was married to Ali Adil Shah I of the Bijapur Sultanate, who favored Shi'as. After his death in 1580, the Shi'a nobles proclaimed his nine-year-old nephew Ibrahim Adil Shah II as the ruler. A Deccani general called Kamal Khan seized power and became the regent. Kamal Khan was disrespectful towards Chand Bibi, who felt that he had ambitions to usurp the throne. Chand Bibi plotted an attack against Kamal Khan. Kamal Khan was captured while fleeing and was beheaded in the fort. Kishvar Khan became the second regent of Ibrahim. In a battle against the Ahmednagar Sultanate at Dharaseo, the Bijapur army led by him captured all the artillery and elephants of the enemy army. After the victory, Kishvar Khan ordered other Bijapuri generals to surrender all the captured elephants to him. The elephants were highly valued, and the other generals took great offense. Along with Chand Bibi, they hatched a plan to eliminate Kishvar Khan. Chand Bibi challenged Kishvar Khan, but he got her imprisoned and tried to declare himself the king. However, Kishvar Khan became very unpopular among the rest of the generals. He was forced to flee when a joint army led by a Habshi general called Ikhlas Khan marched to Bijapur. Following this, Chand Bibi acted as the regent for a short time. Ikhlas Khan then became the regent and was soon challenged by the other Habshi generals. Taking advantage of the situation in Bijapur, Ahmednagar's Nizam Shahi sultan planned to attack Bijapur. The troops available at Bijapur were not sufficient to repulse this attack. The Habshi generals realized that they could not defend the city alone, and tended their resignation to Chand Bibi. When order was restored in Bijapur kingdom, Chand Bibi returned to Ahmednagar. In 1591, the Mughal emperor Akbar asked all the four Deccan sultanates to acknowledge his supremacy. All the sultanates evaded compliance, and Akbar's ambassadors returned in 1593. In 1595, Ibrahim Nizam Shah, the ruler of Ahmednagar Sultanate was killed in a fierce battle. After his death, some nobles felt that his infant son Bahadur Shah should be proclaimed the king under the regency of Chand Bibi (his father's aunt). However, the Deccani minister Miyan Manju proclaimed the twelve-year-old Ahmad Nizam Shah II as the ruler. The Habshi nobles of Ahmednagar, led by Ikhlas Khan, were against this plan. The rising dissent among the nobles prompted Miyan Manju to invite Akbar's son Murad Mirza to march his army to Ahmednagar. While Murad was on the way to Ahmednagar, many noblemen left Ikhlas Khan and joined Miyan Manju. Miyan Manju defeated Ikhlas Khan and other opponents. Now, he regretted having invited the Mughals, but it was too late. He requested Chand Bibi to accept the regency and marched out of Ahmednagar. Chand Bibi accepted the regency and proclaimed Bahadur Shah king of Ahmednagar.

Until now.When Tom gives Val an engagement ring for her fiftieth birthday, she wants to fly the coop. But it's Tom who skips out on the romantic getaway he planned. When he can't make the trip, one of Val's pals goes instead. On the first day, her friend entangles Val in a prank that ticks off the wrong tourist. On the second day, she gets Val charged with murder.(Did I mention Val was unlucky?)To clear her name, Val must go fishing to lure in the real culprit. But what kind of bait do you use when you don't want to get caught yourself?With both marriage and jail feeling like impending life sentences, Val's going to have to do some pretty fancy angling to get herself off the hook this time....If you like deeply flawed characters and laugh-out-loud situations, you'll love Five Oh. It's the fifth book in Lashley's hilarious Val Fremden Midlife Mystery series. She's a lovable, bungling mess who's a bit older, a tad more jaded, and a ton more experienced in big-time failure. Life's been tough for Val. Still, she always manages to find her way with sardonic humor and an intrepid spirit. A gin and tonic now and then helps, too.P.S. If you love humorous, page-turning mysteries like those by Deborah Brown, Julie Mulhern, Lucy Quinn, Tricia O'Malley, Gemma Halliday, Karen Cantwell, Tara Sivec, Liliana Hart, Libby Howard, Chelsea Field, Jana Deleon, Gina LaManna, Janet Evanovich, Denise Grover Swank, Amy Vansant, and Stephanie Bond, you just might love Glad One, too! What Readers are Saying about Five Oh: "Oh, Val! What a fiftieth birthday party! Another great entertaining read from Margaret Lashley!""A funny, thought-provoking book. I somehow find myself in the place of Val every time. I've cried and laughed and just related to all of her crazy life. It's so wonderful to read stories whose main character is 50ish!""Lashley's writing style is brilliant and hilarious. The plot is imaginatively twisty, the situations are wacky, the characters are lovable, and there is a surprise ending that I never saw coming. I wish the author could write as fast as I can read!""It is so refreshing to read a story with an original plot which does not rely on current blockbusters for ideas. This novel keeps you guessing and invested from start to end.""Val and pals enjoy another zany adventure. Find time to escape from your life to Val's!""Smartly written, funny and very engaging characters.""Val is a hoot, a mature woman starting over, reinventing herself, and figuring out who she is and wants to be when she grows up. (She's) her own superhero and I recommend reading this whole series."
