The unforgettable, haunting story of a young woman’s perilous fight for freedom and justice for her brother, the first novel published in English by a female Kurdish writer Set primarily in Iran, this extraordinary debut novel weaves 50 years of modern Kurdish history through a story of a family facing oppression and injustices all too familiar to the Kurds. Leila dreams of making films to bring the suppressed stories of her people onto the global stage, but obstacles keep piling up. Her younger brother, Chia, influenced by their father’s past torture, imprisonment, and his deep-seated desire for justice, begins to engage with social and political affairs. But his activism grows increasingly risky and one day he disappears in Tehran. Seeking answers about her brother’s whereabouts, Leila fears the worst and begins a campaign to save him. But when she publishes Chia’s writings online, she finds herself in grave danger as well. Inspired by the life of Kurdish human rights activist Farzad Kamangar and published to coincide with the 10th anniversary of his execution, Daughters of Smoke and Fire is an evocative portrait of the lives and stakes faced by 40 million stateless Kurds. It’s an unflinching but compassionate and powerful story that brilliantly illuminates the meaning of identity and the complex bonds of family. A landmark novel for our troubled world, Daughters of Smoke and Fire is a gripping and important read, perfect for fans of Khaled Hosseini’s The Kite Runner and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s Half of a Yellow Sun.

The sweeping new novel from the bestselling author of ‘Hiding From the Light’ and ‘Whispers in the Sand’ switches between Roman Britain and the present day where history dramatically impacts on the lives of three women.

This diary spans five years, making up an amazing record of spiritual transformation: the agonies, the resistance, the long and frightening bouts with the purifying forces of Kundalini, the perseverance, the movements towards surrender, the longing, and finally, the all-consuming love.

You noticed it too? The light steadily dimming all around you and the push against your faith becoming increasingly aggressive. You question how you are to follow Jesus in a world where you are constantly surrounded by temptation. You wonder how you are to live on fire for God in the face of countless obstacles ready to extinguish your fire. If there is anyone best equipped to address these concerns, it is the prophet Elijah. He steps into Israelite history at a time when God's people are struggling with immoral leadership, widespread idol worship, and the greatest spiritual gap between themselves and God. Despite the dark and seemingly impossible circumstances, Elijah remains passionately bold about fulfilling God's purpose and mission. In Daughters of Fire, Christian author and speaker Christina Patterson takes readers on a journey through the life of Elijah. She shows women how to confidently and faithfully follow Jesus Christ in the face of growing temptation and in a world of spiritual decline. Now is not the time to allow our fire for God to sizzle out. Now is the time to conquer our fears, stand firm in our faith, and bravely accept our calling as God's Daughters of Fire. Christina Patterson is an author and speaker with a passion to encourage women in the love of Jesus Christ and the truth of God's Word. She holds her masters in Theology from Liberty University and is the founder and CEO of Beloved Women, Inc., a non-profit providing resources and community for women to truly know who they are in Christ: His Beloved. She is married to her college sweetheart and is a stay-at-home mom to their two young children.

When their mother who abandoned them unexpectedly returns, twin sisters Lyric and Runa are shocked to learn they're descended from dragons and have magic in their blood. Forced to flee their home with their mother Elaina and a songsmith named Kell, the sisters find themselves in an unfamiliar world at the heart of an age-old war. Will their bond survive the dangerous journey?

Eighteen-year-old Daunis Fontaine has never quite fit in, both in her hometown and on the nearby Ojibwe reservation. She dreams of a fresh start at college, but when family tragedy strikes, Daunis puts her future on hold to look after her fragile mother. The only bright spot is meeting Jamie, the charming new recruit on her brother Levi’s hockey team. Yet even as Daunis falls for Jamie, she senses the dashing hockey star is hiding something. Everything comes to light when Daunis witnesses a shocking murder, thrusting her into an FBI investigation of a lethal new drug. Reluctantly, Daunis agrees to go undercover, drawing on her knowledge of chemistry and Ojibwe traditional medicine to track down the source. But the search for truth is more complicated than Daunis imagined, exposing secrets and old scars. At the same time, she grows concerned with an investigation that seems more focused on punishing the offenders than protecting the victims. Now, as the deceptions—and deaths—keep growing, Daunis must learn what it means to be a strong Anishinaabe kwe (Ojibwe woman) and how far she’ll go for her community, even if it tears apart the only world she’s ever known.
