Boomshakalaking is a variant of the expression Boomshakalaka and is currently recognised as a boastful, teasingly hostile exclamation that follows a noteworthy achievement or pulling off an impressive stunt. Basically its meaning is similar to in your face!Which is why this anthology is subtitled Modern Crimes for Modern Times, because most, if not all, are not your regular crime fiction pieces - in fact some quite happily dance along the edges of multiple genres and styles, while others skew it like it is.Featuring work from Scott Talbot Evans, Edward Sheehy, Robb T. White, Robert Petyo, Brian R. Quinn, Orca Green, Robert Parker, Brandon Barrows, S. E. Bailey, Edward St. Boniface, Dan A. Cardoza, Sean Marciniak, Lynn Hesse, and Hernán Salvarezza - and even we have to admit that this is one of the most diverse sub-genre spanning anthologies we have produced so far, while still sitting under the umbrella of Crime Fiction. As with all of these anthologies, we hope you'll find something that you immediately like, as well as something that takes you out of your comfort zone - and puts you into a completely new one. In other words, in the spirit of the Murderous Ink Press motto: You never know what you like until you read it.

Bound in beautiful hardback, this book is the perfect way to start or end your day, and designed to encourage growth in your daily spiritual walk. It is authored by forty-nine members of the Ellel Ministries International team, many who are sharing insights from decades of experienced ministry in healing, restoration and discipleship.A seed is a powerful and often repeated Biblical symbol of something that is wisely planted. It is nurtured through watering and feeding, and protected as the young growth starts to develop into a mature plant to bring forth fruitfulness. This is the image of each of our lives under the loving hand of Jesus, the great gardener. Matthew 13 speaks of the parable of the sower, "But the seed falling on good soil refers to someone who hears the word and understands it. This is the one who produces a crop, yielding a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown." This book has been compiled with the vision of helping you on your daily journey of spiritual growth. Each 'seed' has a Scripture and a prayer to reflect upon, to encourage every seed to "fall on good soil".This unique collection of 365 devotions has been edited from the online daily devotional, www.seedsofthekingdom.com, that has attracted thousands of followers.

Mental Health issues have long been stigmatized, with those facing them pushed into the shadows, often unable to deal with the darkness they find themselves trapped in. In this collection, stories explore many types of darkness - Suicidal Ideation, Death from Suicide, Survivor's Guilt, PTSD, Chronic Pain, Chronic Illness, Depression, Death of a Loved One, Secrets, Bullying, and other forms of darkness are explored. Some related to mental health issues and some not, but all of them offer very human perspectives. As in real life, some stories have happy endings and sadly others don't. We offer these stories of darkness without judgement, but with hope and compassion. Some roads should never have to be traveled - but we understand that for many they are being traveled alone. Proceeds from sales of Out of the Darkness will be donated to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention - for more information on AFSP please visit their website at: afsp.org For those who may be in crisis - PLEASE call or text 988 to connect directly to the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline.
