Does it really matter where you come from? In 1953, a war widow’s difficult mother dies before revealing the identity of her daughter’s father and his cultural heritage. As Dee sorts through what little her mother left, she unearths puzzling clues that raise more questions: Why did Leora send money every month to the Basque Relief Agency? Why is her own daughter so secretive about her soon-to-be published book? And what does an Anglican priest know that he isn’t telling? All of this head-spinning mystery breaks a long, dry period in Dee’s life and leads her to embark on an odyssey. She might just as well lose her job and see where the counsel of her new spiritual advisor and the attentions of an enigmatic ex-coworker lead her. The Sheep Walker’s Daughter pairs a colorful Basque immigrant history of loss, survival, and tough choices with one woman’s search for identity and fulfillment. Dee’s journey will take her through the Northern and Central California valleys of the 1950s and reach across the world to the Basque Country. Along the way, she will discover who she is and why family history matters.

Laura Bloux is just about keeping her head above water. She and her two little girls might not have much in the material world, but they share a secret: all three are walkers-spirit-walkers, able to slip the bonds of their physical bodies at will. Then Magnus enters their lives, and everything changes. For Magnus, too, is a walker-and a body-swapper, an adrenaline junkie, and more besides. As Laura's life spirals out of control, she splits up her girls and sends them to safety in separate countries with a stark warning: Terrible things will happen to you if you ever walk again. Never, ever walk again.. Twenty years later Cora, the youngest of Laura's daughters, is still holding fast to that instruction. Haunted by the memory of her mother's lover-flash of silver, silver and black-she stays resolutely hidden inside her body, denying her own self in an attempt to appear normal. But when her eight-year-old daughter, Grace, is involved in a hit-and-run, Cora is forced, just once, to walk again. Once is enough. A flare goes out to those that have been waiting: Cora has been found! Suddenly Cora's life is anything but normal, as a parade of new characters enters her life: a teenage au pair; the enigmatic songwriter, Charlie Tam; a rock band; and her estranged older sister, Magda, who might not have paid enough attention to their mother's instructions all those years ago... As the pressure mounts Cora realises that her enemies can get to her any time, any place and in any body. Because when a body can't be swapped, it can always be stolen. The race is on for Cora to work out who to trust, who to fear-and who she really is. To see the world as it really is, sometimes you have to close your eyes and ... walk. If you like your urban fantasy engaging, contemporary and with literary flair, The Walker's Daughter is for you. Janet Allison Brown saturates her contemporary paranormal novel with all too human truths.

This ambitious work chronicles 250 years of the Cromartie Family genealogical history. Included in the index of nearly 50,000 names are the current generations, and all of those preceding, which trace ancestry to our family patriarch, William Cromartie who was born in 1731 in Orkney, Scotland and his second wife, Ruhamah Doane who was born in 1745. Arriving in America in 1758, William Cromartie settled and developed a plantation on South River, a tributary of the Cape Fear near Wilmington, North Carolina. On April 2, 1766, William married Ruhamah Doane, a fifth generation descendant of a Mayflower passenger to Plymouth, Stephen Hopkins. If Cromartie is your last name, or that of one of your blood relatives, it is almost certain that you can trace your ancestry to one of the thirteen children of William Cromartie , his first wife, and Ruhamah Doane, who became the founding ancestors of our Cromartie Family in America: William Jr, James, Thankful, Elizabeth, Hannah Ruhamah, Alexander, John, Margaret Nancy, Mary, Catherine, Jean, Peter Patrick, and Ann E. Cromartie. These four volumes hold an account of the descent of each of these first-generation Cromarties in America, including personal antidotes, photographs, copies of family Bibles, wills and other historical documents. Their pages hold a personal record of our ancestors and where you belong in the Cromartie Family Tree.
