Suspect by Michael Robotham6/12/2023 ![]() ![]() The first episode opens with Joe somewhat recklessly climbing out onto a building’s ledge to convince a young man not to jump, endangering his own life in the process. Joe has a lot on his mind, even before he’s accused of murder. Joe ( Poldark’s Aidan Turner) sets his sights on his own prime suspect, a disturbed patient of his named Bobby Moran (Bobby Schofield), but Bobby’s own guilt or innocence is just as questionable as Joe’s, even as the five-episode series progresses. ![]() But even definitively ruling out Joe’s guilt doesn’t make The Suspect any less suspenseful, and TV series writer Peter Berry crafts effective cliffhangers that create constant doubt as to who’s really behind the murder. The Suspect is the first in Robotham’s series of mystery novels about clinical psychologist Joe O’Loughlin, so Joe’s clearly not going to turn out to be the killer. If he weren’t the show’s protagonist, he’d be the most obvious choice for the culprit in the brutal murder of a young woman. He holds back vital information that makes him look guilty, and he flees from authorities rather than confronting them with the truth. The title character of The Suspect, the Sundance Now and AMC+ TV series based on Michael Robotham’s novel, makes a remarkably quick transition from aiding the police in a murder investigation to being accused of the crime himself. Joe O’Loughlin could not seem more suspicious if he tried. ![]()

Book the fire next time6/12/2023 ![]() ![]() It is for this reason that the man became religious. After making this comparison, Baldwin tells James that his grandfather was ultimately undone-destroyed-by believing that he actually was what white society said he was: subhuman. He points out that James’s grandfather even had a similar personality to the boy’s, a certain strong-willed and assertive manner that Baldwin believes is designed to avoid looking weak or soft. ![]() ![]() Baldwin tells James that when he imagines the boy’s face he also sees the face of his brother (James’s father) and the face of his own father (James’s grandfather). The Fire Next Time opens with a short letter to Baldwin’s fourteen-year-old nephew, James, commemorating the hundredth anniversary of the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I gave it as a gift more times than I can count. This was the first Emilie Barnes book I purchased and I just loved it. The Spirit of Loveliness: Bringing Beauty, Creativity, and Order to Your Life This is her Amazon author page if you want to see more. Here’s some that I have and then a sampling (and I do mean sampling) of what else she wrote in case you aren’t familiar with her works. I thought of her today and decided to collect her books from around the house to gain some fresh inspiration this weekend. Actually, it’s a good thing she wrote before blogs because now we have all of her lovely works in actual books we can enjoy instead of losing them to the noise of the online world. She was the mega blogger before their were blogs. Her ideas were attainable for regular Christian women. ![]() ![]() She interested me far more than someone like Martha Stewart because Emilie Barnes seemed like such a real and down-to-earth person that I could more easily relate to. During the 1980s and 1990s she was a prolific and very popular Christian author who wrote lovely and encouraging books on making a home, family, home organization, saving time, etc. If you are younger, you might not be familiar with her at all. If you are over a certain age, Emilie Barnes will be a familiar name to you and this post might be like a walk down memory lane that sends you scouring the bookshelves of your home for your own Emilie Barnes books. ![]() The deep solomon6/11/2023 ![]() ![]() Yetu will learn more than she ever expected about her own past-and about the future of her people.
