Trey Murphy

Early in her life, Josephine Malone learned the hard way that there was only one person she could love and trust: her grandmother, Lydia Malone. Out of necessity, unconsciously and very successfully, Josephine donned a disguise to keep all others at bay. She led a globetrotting lifestyle on the fringes of the fashion and music elite, but she kept herself distant. While Josephine was trotting the globe, retired boxer Jake Spear was living in the same small town as Lydia. There was nothing disguised about Jake. Including the fact he made a habit of making very bad decisions about who to give his love. But for Josephine and Jake, there was one person who adored them. One person who knew how to lead them to happiness. And one person who was intent on doing it. Even if she had to do it as her final wish on this earth.

A troubled youth is framed for murder. His only hope is a lone detective, as he searches for the real killer.

Once upon a time, in a cottage above the cliffs on the Dark Sea of Darkness, there lived three children and their trusty dog Nugget. Janner Igiby, his brother Tink, and his sister Leeli are gifted children as all children are. Together they discover the secret of the Jewels of the Shining Isle. They will need their special gifts and all the love of their noble mother and ex-pirate grandfather to survive the venomous Fangs, sea dragons, flabbits, and (gulp) toothy cows! The Wingfeather Saga blends the whimsy and heart of THE PRINCESS BRIDE with the vastness and peril of THE LORD OF THE RINGS. After living for years under occupation by the evil Fangs of Dang, the Igiby children find a map rumored to lead to the lost Jewels of Anniera---the one thing the Fangs will do anything to find---and the family is thrown headlong into a perilous adventure, uncovering hidden truths about who they are that will change their world forever.

Set during the High Republic era and the prime of the Jedi Order, follow Jedi younglings as they study the ways of the Force, explore the galaxy, help citizens and creatures in need, and learn valuable skills needed to become Jedi along the way.
