The Light Remains, Samantha Keller

Ruff’d Out, Christine Falcone
Summer starts to heat up on the Connecticut shoreline as Visiting Nurse Melanie Bass needs to deal with more than challenging patients: stolen pets, two brutal attacks, and a difficult older
sister lead to a brush with death. This is the fourth book in the Melanie Bass Mystery Series.
The Wall, Rick Stockwell
What would you do, if you knew for certain, that a close friend or relative would be going to hell?
