Paperback. Zustand: Good. Eight serialized novellas, each inspired by real people and actual events, reveal the incredible story of amazing heroes and heroines facing the ultimate test of bravery. In 1941 Great Britain a special war department assembles an experimental and exclusively female cohort of combat operatives consisting of four willing spies, a wireless radio operator, an ingenious code breaker, and a fearless pilot. Dubbed the Virtues, each woman is hand-picked, recruited, and trained to initiate a daring mission in Occupied France. As plans unfold to initiate the largest prison break of Allied POWs in history, the Nazis capture the young radio operator. It will take the cohesive teamwork of the rest of the women to save her life before Berlin breaks her and brings the force of the Third Reich to bear. Courage, faith, and valor intersect but, in the end, one pays the ultimate price. TEMPERANCE'S TRIAL: Marie Gilbert and her elder brother flee from Vichy France after the Gestapo arrest her father for suspicion of aiding Jewish children to escape the oncoming fascist front. Once in London, Marie is recruited into an experimental all female cohort dubbed the Virtues, a collection of seven extraordinary women with highly specialized skills, and given the codename TEMPERANCE. Assigned to Occupied France, she transmits messages deep in the heart of Nazi territory. HOMELAND'S HOPE: Stage and screen legend Virginia Benoit performs for standing room only crowds in her adopted home of France. When the Nazis roll into Paris, she flees to Casablanca, taking the heart of an enemy General with her. While in there, Virginia, soon codenamed HOPE, devises a plan to use her position, talent, and influence with the high ranking Axis officer to aid the Allied cause. CHARITY'S CODE: Dorothy Ewing works on the home-front, receiving and sending messages to her team in France and coordinating a secret mission. Using the codename CHARITY, she receives and sends messages to her team in France and coordinates a secret mission with her husband via coded letters. She intercepts the transmission from TEMPERANCE alerting to her blown cover. The clock is ticking in a race to save Temperance's life. A PARCEL FOR PRUDENCE: Assigned the code name of PRUDENCE, Muriel Tolson's natural French allows her to infiltrate Occupied France where she works as a courier; carrying messages, money, and sometimes people through the secret resistance network aiding the allies to accomplish very dangerous missions behind enemy lines. GRACE'S GROUND WAR: Can Ruth Aubertin, codenamed GRACE, and her team pull off the mission of rescuing TEMPERANCE, or will too many variables crash together at the wrong time? As a Jew deep in the heart of the Nazi occupation, Ruth knows that the Allies must win this war, and she will do everything in her power to make sure that happens. MISSION OF MERCY: Doctor Betty Grimes works undercover as a nurse with the codename MERCY. When Betty is sent to the local prison to see to a prisoner who has taken ill, her shock at finding TEMPERANCE nearly blows her cover. Now TEMPERANCE is sick and Betty needs to get her well enough for the coming rescue operation to succeed. FLIGHT OF FAITH: Pilot Helen Troy Mulberry flies between Britain and France transporting passengers, supplies, or performing reconnaissance under the codename FAITH. Shot down over France during the mission to rescue her fellow agent from the clutches of the Nazis, Can Helen make her way through enemy territory with no language skills and somehow come through with a means to get her team back to Britain? VALOR'S VIGIL: An American spy undercover in a Nazi uniform operating under the codename VALOR, Leopold Schafer is in charge of the prisoners in Occupied France's Valeurville prison. After the arrest of the radio operator codenamed TEMPERANCE, Leo must handle the situation with the utmost caution. Can he protect her without blowing his own cover, or will he place his own life in danger to keep.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. The clickety-clack of mahjong tiles being mixed by a group of friends is one of the most soothing and distinctive sounds found across East Asia and, increasingly, North America. First developed in southern China in the early 19th century, mahjong - meaning 'sparrow' - is a fun and popular game that tasks you with solving a tile-matching puzzle before you run out of moves. Played by four people using 144 tiles, mahjong is not just a game of luck; it requires strategy, pattern recognition, and an understanding of the other players' tactics. Mahjong Illustrated introduces this highly engaging and competitive game, which helps develop concentration and mental agility while at the same time building relationships and a sense of community. The book is divided into chapters designed for the beginner, offering a brief background history, with introductions to the tiles, rules, playing the game, and popular variants and competitions. Find out how to shuffle and stack tiles to start the game; learn the difference between a kong and a pong and how this can win you points; understand the significance of the honour tiles, including the four winds and the three dragons; and find out what 'winning from the wall' means to complete a 'legal hand'.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. To ROBIN BARTLET, men were nothing more than violent users.After a hair-raising childhood, Robin and her two younger half sisters battled simply to survive. Determined to give her sisters a very different life from that of their mother; to never have to rely on a man for anything, she worked two jobs and put them both through college, while accepting help from no one. Her heart had turned to ice and she had no use for men or God.ANTONIO TONY VISCOLI had grown up on the streets, homeless. At seventeen, he entered a downtown church with the intent of casing it, but found himself on his knees at the altar. Lovingly fostered by the youth minister, Tony learned about God. Striking out on his own, he let God lead him to eventually become a very successful businessman. In a fallen world, Tony was a gem. When he bought the restaurant where Robin bartended, she immediately resented his intrusion into her well ordered, but exhausting, life. She suspected his special attention and constant kindness came with expectations of something from her in return, something she wasn't willing to give.Tony knew God had led him to Robin. Would she ever allow herself to trust him? Could she ever allow herself to trust God? Or would the winter of their tragic youths rise from the shadows of the past and freeze any chance at happiness.…
