In 2012, Steve Austin, then a pastor, nearly died by suicide. His experience launched him on a journey that opened his eyes to the widespread problem of mental illness and how those who live with it are often treated in congregations. He began to wonder: If church folks had talked openly about mental health, therapy, suicide prevention, recovery from abuse, and other difficult issues, would that have changed his story? In Hiding in the Pews, people with mental illness - some of whom might be pastors themselves - will find comfort as they learn they are not alone.

Young Irish thug Paddy O’Hannigan, Will’s long-time antagonist, sneaks aboard Stanford’s train, grabs the spike, steals Will’s horse, and races away.

San Francisco’s only PI who can see the things that go bump in the night is about to get bumped—hard. Twenty years ago, a little old witch named Nana hired a wet-behind-the-ears Tony Mandolin to break up a protection racket. He did. She paid him in potions that have saved his bacon more times than he can count, then vanished—along with the entire alley her shop sat in. Now Nana’s back, looking exactly the same, acting like two decades is just a long weekend, and Tony’s past is slamming into his present at full speed. High-end restaurants are dropping dead patrons all over again—...

When enchanted murders start piling up and a conspiracy threatens to spill nightmare creatures into our world, Tony has to solve the case with sarcasm, a decent beer, and his partner Frankie. Poison apples, wicked witches, and zero chance of a happy ...

Tony Mandolin’s past just came back to bite him. Hard. San Francisco’s pickpockets are dropping dead, fingertips black with a toxin no morgue has ever seen. The money in their pockets is laced with enough poison to wipe out a city block. Someone is waging chemical warfare on the city’s sleight-of-hand artists… and doing the taxpayers a favor. Until the Vatican decides Tony is the real problem. Turns out breaking up a child-slavery ring that reached into the upper floors of power—and Rome—puts a permanent bullseye on your back. The Jesuits didn’t like the headlines. Now three-...

Over the years, San Francisco's Private Investigator with an eye into the World of the Weird, caps intentional, Tony Mandolin has tackled vampires, demons, dragons, pixies, and various members of the world of the fae, and assorted things beyond description. All of them had one goal, the death of a certain PI. Most of Tony's cases occupy a set of volumes, twelve of them, with more to come. However, a few of those cases were brief enough, pun intended, to fit into a shorter narrative. This collection holds the best of them. Enjoy with a pint of Anchor's best and one of Bunty's dogs.

The Faculty of Agriculture at the University of Melbourne, at times complemented ...

Instinctively we would shy away but sometimes its pull is too powerful, almost attractive. We are drawn closer into the shadows.

Shortly after the release of Tent City: Tragedy Turned Triumph controversy struck... Only two short months after Tent City was dismantled two homes were purchased with several thousand dollars that were donated to help the men and women of Tent City. Sadly, many former residents found themselves back on the streets sleeping in tents, not benefiting from the goodwill intended to offer them hope. Many residents stated, these actions hurt them more than Mayor Danny Jones’ dismantling of Tent City. We received several hundred emails and private messages, some threats, from several people who ...
