Buying Murder

By: Nancy Lynn Jarvis

Murder gets personal when human remains are found in the beach cottage that real estate agents Regan McHenry and her husband, Tom Kiley, buy. The murder victim has been hidden away for sixteen years, and although the authorities quickly discover his identity, the trail to his killer is cold after so many years. Regan has sworn off playing amateur detective, but when it becomes clear the police have to focus on more pressing crimes, she has to break her promise. As her friend police ombudsman Dave Everett says, "Your house, Regan, your murder." Welcome back to Santa Cruz, the community whose unofficial motto is "Keep Santa Cruz Weird," for the twists and turns of the third book in the Regan McHenry Mystery Series. The murders are invented, but Nancy Lynn Jarvis uses real events and stories from her twenty plus years as a Realtor for background details, although, sometimes they are the parts of the books that seem like fiction. The series has been called smart and funny; perfect books to kick back with and have a good read.

Passages

By: Nancy Lynn

Passages is book three in the Traveler's Trilogy. Dr. Helen Strums, a successful psychiatrist and life coach, has always known that her life's purpose was more than what it presently was. The past kept creeping in . . . the long past. Her dreams have been filled with visions of a harsh past life experience since puberty and her whole life seemed a struggle between ignoring that past and living it; the struggle of how to acknowledge and embrace her gifts without being shunned by society - the darkest of her nightmares. An ancient evil has seeped out into the light. The founding fathers of the north central Pennsylvania town warned of the need to keep their secrets safely under the spell of suppression in order to protect humankind. A secret journal had been passed from mother to daughter since the founding of the town describing religious rituals that needed to be performed every year on a certain night; rituals forgotten and ignored by modern thinking descendants. Join Helen as she searches for the answers that will show her the way to conquer the demons that threaten her new home and her sanity.

Indiana in the Civil War

Doctors, Hospitals, and Medical Care

By: Nancy Pippen Eckerman

Indiana in the Civil War: Doctors, Hospitals, and Medical Care is a unique visual history of the people and places most vital to the medical care of Indiana troops during America's darkest hour. From the guerilla warfare in Missouri to the campaigns of the Army of the Potomac, Indiana men and women struggled to care for the sick and injured. Often finding even the best physicians could do little to cure diseases that were more deadly than enemy fire, doctors, nurses, and patients explain in their own words how they combated disease and survived horrific wounds during the War Between the States. Even with the strong support of Indiana's governor, Oliver P. Morton, caregivers still faced daunting obstacles, including court martials, their own disease and injury, and military red tape. Showcasing almost 200 vintage images and utilizing newspaper accounts written during the period by surgeons, patients, and hospital observers, this book provides new insight on Civil War medical care.

Descendants of Thomas William Holland and Milley Boyett

By: Nancy Jackson Pleitt Fenner

Descendants of Thomas William Holland and Milley Boyett compiles information from many sources None of the records in my book have been imported from online histories. All of them have been entered by me and most have been verified not once, but several times. When I entered names, dates and other information from book sources, I attempted to verify the data with census, vital records or another source. An Old Holland Family Record Book that was originally owned by Thomas William Holland is the "Key" that opened research for this book. Living relatives and fellow researchers provided me with priceless information that I supported by vital statistics, census records, deeds and wills.
