About Mysteries of Vedas: five keys for decoding by KAUSHAL KISHORE
The greatest mystery of the Vedas is not their age—it is their meaning.
For generations, scholars have debated whether the Vedic hymns are ritual texts, symbolic poetry, spiritual revelations, or records of a sophisticated ancient civilization. Yet the question remains: how should these ancient verses be interpreted?
In *Mysteries of Vedas*, Kaushal Kishore argues that the apparent obscurity of the Vedas arises not from the texts themselves but from the loss of the interpretive keys once used to understand them. Through an examination of Vedic Sanskrit, Nirukta, Upanishadic wisdom, contemplative traditions, and internal textual analysis, he proposes a coherent framework for approaching the Rigveda and recovering its deeper philosophical and spiritual insights.
A provocative and accessible exploration of one of the world’s oldest literary traditions, *Mysteries of Vedas* challenges readers to look beyond conventional translations and rediscover the hidden wisdom of the Vedic seers.

She left the business of controlling stories. Then the world began erasing a woman she loved.
At forty-eight, crisis strategist Evelyn Harcourt knows how institutions make inconvenient truths disappear. When Verity Global Advisory dismisses her, she receives a final voicemail from her missing deputy, Imogen Shaw: Do not let them make you forget me.

Their search leads to Harrowsea, a divided British coastal town where an impossible low tide reveals streets drowned since 1954 – and people the official history insists never existed. As Clara begins forgetting her own mother, Evie must use the reputation-management skills that destroyed her career to expose a conspiracy built from civic guilt, corporate power and the dangerous convenience of disbelief.
Atmospheric, intelligent and quietly romantic, The Woman the Sea Forgot is a paranormal women’s fiction mystery about midlife reinvention, found family and the courage to remain known.

About UNDER PROTEST
Once, he ruled a star.
Now he works in marketing.
He has ambition, grudges, and a carefully maintained list of people he’d like to see fail.
There’s just one problem.
His own body keeps helping them.
A hand moves before he can stop it. His mouth says exactly the wrong—or inexplicably right—thing. His legs carry him toward strangers in trouble. Every selfish plan ends in an act of kindness he never approved.
And somehow, people are starting to think he’s a good man.
He strongly objects.
UNDER PROTEST is a fast, darkly comic short story about ambition, unwanted heroism, and the deeply inconvenient possibility that your own body may have better judgment than you do.

About Ugly Fairytale: Fragments of Desperation by Esa Pesonen
A fragmented memoir. A novel of isolation. A dark journey through the margins of modern life.
A man wakes up in a hospital after months of illness. As he struggles to breathe, memories begin to surface—of a brutal childhood, relentless bullying, alcoholism, loneliness, journalism, forgotten celebrities, prisons, hospitals, and a country that repeatedly failed him.
Ugly Fairytale is told in short, powerful fragments that move between past and present. The result is a raw, often darkly humorous portrait of a man trying to understand how he became an outsider in his own society.
This is not a story about heroes or happy endings. It is about survival, shame, poverty, depression, and the strange beauty that can still exist in broken lives.
Blending memoir, autofiction, social criticism, and prose poetry, Ugly Fairytale offers an uncompromising look at the hidden side of one of the world’s happiest countries.
For readers of Karl Ove Knausgård, Charles Bukowski, Thomas Bernhard, and Édouard Louis.

About Stand A Little Rain by Kent Merrill
PEACE AND LOVE WASN’T MEANT FOR EVERYONE.
In the stifling summer of ’67, neither the living nor the dead rest in peace at the Doyle Family Funeral Home in Missoula, Montana. Brothers Sawyer and Nick are trapped between the soul-crushing grip of their father’s funeral home and the looming threat of Vietnam.
Desperate to escape their fate, the brothers’ suffocating reality tips into reckless possibility when a mysterious wailer disrupts a funeral service. Ignited by rebellion, they forge an ill-advised scheme, launching them on a chaotic, drug-fueled break for freedom that runs off the rails before they leave town.
The resulting disaster forces an impossible bargain that fractures the bonds of brotherhood. Spiraling down separate, nightmarish paths, the horrors of the present collide with buried truths of the past.
The truth is not silent. Relentlessly pursued by a powerful, sadistic enemy, Sawyer and Nick must fight a war they never volunteered for with a foe determined to bury the truth.

About A Gentleman’s Convenient Flaw
He only meant to defend her honour. He didn’t mean to lose his heart.
Lord Julian Beaumont has made an art of not caring. He watches the marriage market the way other men watch weather: with detachment, mild contempt, and no intention of getting wet.
Then he crosses a crowded ballroom to silence a man who is being deliberately cruel to a woman he has never met.
Miss Eleanor Marbury has spent three seasons mastering the art of absorbing damage quietly. She does not need rescuing. She does not, in particular, need the most cynical man in London attaching his name to hers in front of half the ton and calling it gallantry.
Their fake engagement is a convenience, and it would work perfectly, if only pretending to care about someone did not require learning who they actually are. As the scandal reveals its teeth, Julian Beaumont, who has always believed love is the fine print no one reads, is about to discover exactly what he is willing to stake on a woman who never asked him to.
A clean Regency romance for readers who love fake engagements and cynical heroes who never saw her coming.

About Mr. Hyde and Me: How I Live as Two Different Men by Benjamin F Sautter
For more than six decades, Ben Sautter lived as two different men.
One built homes, contracted with the U.S. government, and operated heavy equipment across the West. The other committed insurance fraud, burned down a hotel for profit, trafficked drugs across state lines, and served time in federal prison.
In Mr. Hyde and Me, Ben offers an unfiltered account of psychological compartmentalization so complete he could commit felonies without guilt — then go home and function as the man everyone trusted. No guilt. No fear. No remorse. Just silence.
When a stroke in 2017 disrupted the mechanism that had protected him for decades, the separation began to collapse. What surfaced wasn’t redemption, but something rarer: a real‑time examination of how childhood trauma fractures identity — and how the mind survives by splitting.
For readers of psychological memoir, criminal firsthand accounts, and trauma studies, Mr. Hyde and Me offers something uncomfortable, analytical, and brutally honest: the anatomy of a divided self.
