Bathsheba Spooner: A Revolutionary Murder Conspiracy : Andrew Noone
“A Most Horrid Piece of Villainy” one observer wrote upon hearing of what is recognized as the most sensational crime of the American Revolution, the eighteenth-century counterpart to the Lizzie Borden case.
The saga reads like historical fiction, though every page is documented.
Bathsheba Spooner, favorite daughter of the once-heralded, now scorned loyalist Timothy Ruggles, plotted the murder of her Patriot husband in league with fugitive British POWs and her teenage American lover (and ex-militiaman), riveting the attention of New England for four months at the war’s mid-point.
Fascinating the reader with its melodramatic combination of war, marital discord, class conflict, duplicity, thievery, lust, murder and consequence, the tale unfolds within the larger concerns of a society undergoing the most radical disruption since its beginnings a century-and-a-half earlier.
Jonathan Cohn, Sr. National Correspondent for the Huffington Post calls the book “…meticulously researched, elegantly told.”

Only by the Grace of God: One Family’s Story of Survival during World War II as POWs in the Philippines : Pamela J. Brink, Robert A. Brink, John W. Brink
Three siblings from the Philippines wrote down what they remembered about being imprisoned by the Japanese during World War II. Pamela J. Brink, Robert A. Brink, and John W. Brink all survived the ordeal, but only one of them – Pamela – is still alive today. She shares their experiences in this memoir that recounts the horrors of war as seen through the eyes of children.
“When they were freed, everyone wanted to hear about atrocities, but their slow starvation could not compete with the horrors that Jews suffered in Nazi Germany. Most ignored their tales, and over time, they stopped telling them.
“Three adults look back at their childhood experiences as prisoners of war, how they survived, and how they continued on in Only by the Grace of God.”

The Ghosts of Manor Ren : Helen G Huntley
The dark, gloomy manor had been haunted for a hundred years…or so they all believed.
No one ever knew what really happened on that day in 1845, when Reilly and Lon Ren mysteriously disappeared. The bodies were never found.
It’s now 1945, and Claude Wallace doesn’t believe in ghosts. He needs that property for its location and a place to deposit his daft but necessary wife.
By the time Reilly and Lon are finished with Claude, he and his nefarious allies will all believe in ghosts.
The Ghost of Manior Ren is ostensibly a ghost story with a touch of fairytale, a little romance, a soupcon of sauciness, and a dash of tension.
It begins well with Loren Wallace arriving at the old manor house which is going to be her new home, purchased by her husband, Claude for her to stay in while he is away on business. Their marriage having been arranged by their respective fathers, Loren is feeling a little unsure about the situation she finds herself in and the fact that the house they are about to inhabit has resident ghosts does nothing to assuage her trepidation.
We learn a little about the ghosts in that they are brothers and one was a Lothario whilst the other one was driven to perform well in business and Huntley develops them as characters by showing their impressions of the new residents of their home. The mystery of who or what they are creates suspense. You also become aware that there is something odd about Loren and Claude’s marriage and this also creates mystery.
The creation of character is infused with humour and it is an easy read. There is no doubt that Huntley is a competent writer with a clear sense of direction in her story building as the action leads to a satisfying conclusion.

Patientology: Toward the Study of Patients : Pamela J. Brink, RN, PhD, FAAN
When reading a book on victimology, Brink was struck with a number of parallels between those affected by criminal acts and what she had witnessed firsthand as a health professional in many hospital settings. As chair of an ethics review committee, Brink realized that health care professionals are so task-oriented that patients often take a back seat. Patients are objectified and expected to cooperate without question.
Patientology is a call to action. Brink outlines the areas of study she feels are necessary and suggests a method of studying staff attitudes toward patients to uncover out-of-awareness biases.
Many health care organizations are patient-centered rather than diagnosis or treatment centered. This book is not for these professionals. It is intended as a primer for nursing students, a reminder to nursing staff and an approach to teaching clinical nursing by nursing professors. Other health professionals may find parallels with nursing.
An Academic Nurse’s Tale by Pamela J. Brink is also on Whizbuzz Books.

Geophysicist Michael and his son, Alex, are drawn into a marine survey to locate the Siren, an East Indiaman sunk in a tempest in the Sulu Sea in 1764.

This is set in many colourful locations in SE Asia including Singapore, Zamboanga and Tawi-Tawi Island. The struggle for an independent Muslim Mindanao by Abu Sayyaf in one of continuing conflict.
A fast-paced and well-researched novel based on the Author’s intimate knowledge of the region.
