But the dead wait for no one. Especially a dead guy like Kent Thomas. He was every parent's dream, the kind of good kid who excelled at school, and never caused trouble. And he was the kind of guy all the guys liked. Add in a hot factor that made him every girl’s fantasy, and he was the least likely person to be murdered. So who tossed him off a cliff? Maggie’s determined to find the killer but if she’s not careful, she’ll end up just like the soul she’s trying to save. One of the best parts of being a writer for Natasha Deen is presenting at schools, conferences, and workshops. She’s also appeared in a variety of media outlets as a literacy advocate. When not working, she hangs out with her furry boys. She lives in Edmonton.

Highly recommended.” — CM Magazine “Guardian is at its heart a murder mystery, albeit a paranormal one, and a superb one at that” — CanLit For Little Canadians “certainly a recommended read for those interesting in young adult/paranormal fictions.” — Asian American Literature Fans 4 Jodi Carmichael 978-1-927855-20-1 • $14.95 • 264 pages Six months ago, Julia’s life was perfect. Then her dad died. After a dark bout of depression, Julia is fragile and mourns both her father and her old life. But she has one thing to be happy about: Jeremy, the most popular boy at school, has chosen her. His love for her is passionate, even obsessive. As she grows closer to Jeremy, Julia pushes her disapproving friends and family away. But Jeremy only becomes more controlling and Julia has to decide what lines cannot be crossed. BRONZE MEDAL WINNER: Moonbeam Award, mature issues SELECTION: Best Books for Kids & Teens, Fall 2015 “Julia’s story is one that needs to be told … [a]uthor Jodi Carmichael writes about life as a teenager with humour and insight, showing how easy it is for peer pressure and the need to be loved to lead to risky behaviour.” – Quill & Quire “Carmichael’s writing is vivid and her depiction of Julia’s feelings and actions feels authentic and contemporary.

Winters are fierce and relentless. Summers are unbearably hot. It has been both the murder and auto theft capital of Canada and the Slurpee capital of the world. It is a place that exerts an influence, that marks and changes its inhabitants. This anthology features writers who have all lived in Winnipeg for a time and been inspired, horrified, changed by that experience. The stories here capture a tone of history, dread, violence, weirdness, and sometimes even whimsy; a tone that only Winnipeg exudes. KEITH CADIEUX’s 2010 novella Gaze was listed for a Manitoba Book Award and the ReLit award. His short fiction has most recently appeared in Prairie Fire, Grain, ELQ, and the Exile Book of New Canadian Noir. He lives in Winnipeg. 8 The Light That Remains Lyse Champagne ISBN:978-1-927855-40-9 • $19.95 Trade paper, 5.5 x 8.5, 240 pages April 1, 2016 Marketing Plan: National review mailing, online marketing and promotion, national advertising campaign, author participation in interviews, festivals, tours and conferences. T he despair of refugees has haunted us long before the civil war in Syria. Lyse Champagne’s evocative new story collection attempts to put these collective and individual tragedies into an historical context. Two Armenian sisters write to each other in the year leading up to the deportations. A young Ukrainian mother embroiders her life story as famine threatens. A boy travels to Hong Kong by train while the Japanese march towards his hometown of Nanjing. A Jewish girl collects words and falls in love as she hides in a French mountain village in 1942. A Cambodian refugee recalls his childhood in his home country and his new life in Canada on a makeshift stage. A Rwandan family prepares to emigrate days before President Habyarimana’s plane is shot down. These stories span the twentieth century and reach into the twenty-first. We discover letters, maps, and the kindness of strangers. Word lists, a falling piano, and young love. Hiding places, history lessons, and conversations around the table. Music, a makeshift stage, and life breathed into memories. LYSE CHAMPAGNE writes in French and in English. Her stories have appeared in Descant, The New Quarterly, The Antigonish Review, Room of One’s Own, Windsor Review and Wascana Review. Her first book, Double Vision, a memoir about growing up French in Ontario was published by Key Porter and her play, Chicane de famille, won the David Smith Playwriting Prize. She lives in Ottawa with her family.

COMing HOME from the Northwest Set in the year 1849, amidst a vividly reconceived Appalachia, young Dannon has returned from the war only to discover home was finer when remembered from afar. Disenchanted and confused, he puts all hope of deliverance in a girl he once met and, along with an escaped slave named Virgil, embarks on an epic journey to find her. But hard on their trail is Will Lawson, Virgil’s vengeful owner. As Dannon is pushed deeper into the world of the hunted, his mind slips into a world of its own. Suddenly the mountains of his youth are transformed into the Nine Circles of Hell, and Virgil becomes his soul-guide through the underworld. With this notion firm in his mind, Dannon commends himself to a surreal journey as he seeks redemption in the heart of the Inferno.

Another boy on the cancer ward, named Phil, also wants to walk in Houdini’s footsteps. Together, Phil and Dean go on a quest for real, true magic that will save Philip’s life. They ultimately learn magic can even surprise the magician.

Fur Trade, First Nations, and a Life in Northern Canada Leonard Flett 978-1-927855-33-1 $29.95 • 328 pages This is a story about the fur trade and First Nations, and the development of northern Canada, seen and experienced not only through Leonard Flett’s eyes, but also through the eyes of his father, grandfather, and great-grandfather. The lives of indigenous people in remote areas of northern Ontario, Manitoba and Saskatchewan in the 1960s and 1970s are examined in detail. Flett’s successful career with both the Hudson’s Bay Company and the North West Company provides an insight into the dying days of the fur trade and the rise of a new retail business tailored to First Nations.

At the turn of the 20th century, travellers to Winnipeg were impressed by the city’s stately architecture, its broad streets, and its tranquil parks. Hand-tinted postcards expressed the vibrancy and optimism felt by visitors to Manitoba. Dreamlike and evocative, these vintage postcards are truly works of art. On the Air: The Golden Age of Radio Garry Moir 978-1-927855-26-3 • $29.95 • 192 pages Before the internet, before TV, Manitoba was a hotbed for innovation in radio. These innovations range from the first publically-owned radio station to the first play-by-play broadcast of women’s hockey. During World War II, a Winnipeg broadcaster was as well-known in England as Churchill. And Neil Young’s very first recording was done at a local station. These are but a few of the stories of early radio in Manitoba. In its first half century, the medium was a powerful, revolutionary force that touched and linked virtually everyone in the province.
