Three women. Three generations. One haunting legacy. When schoolteacher Rachael discovers her late grandmother’s journals, she uncovers more than dusty memories. Within the yellowed pages lies a chilling family history—one of love, betrayal, and long-buried secrets. As Rachael struggles to navigate an increasingly dangerous marriage in 2022, she is pulled back to the 1980s, into the world of Dorothy, a woman whose return to a secluded island cottage awakens painful memories of her brother Jimmy’s mysterious death. Haunted by the past and watched over by a strange raven, Dorothy begins to piece together the truth behind Jimmy’s drowning and the darkness that once shadowed her childhood. But it’s not just ghosts that linger on Turtle Island. There’s also a history of unspoken trauma, passed down through bloodlines, and the quiet strength of the women who’ve endured it. As Rachael reads, the parallels between her grandmother’s life and her own become impossible to ignore. She must confront the truth to break from a cycle of violence—before it consumes her too. A gripping blend of contemporary gothic mystery and emotional suspense, Said the Spider to the Fly is a powerful story of survival, legacy, and the enduring strength of women. The question is—can the past help Rachael break free?

In the super-overpopulated world of twenty-ninth century, the remnants of civilizations cling to survival in fortified city-states. Among them is Iulius, a historian and a member of a secret society, entrusted with a daunting mission—to chronicle the key events that led to civilization's collapse. He hopes this history might guide future generations—or perhaps extraterrestrial visitors—as they seek to understand the reasons for humanity’s tragic fall. One day Iulius receives a long-awaited coded message, indicating it’s time to leave the safety of city-state New Vancouver and deliver his manuscript to whoever and whenever his mentor, Father Thomas says. Once there, he will also receive a hyper-memory stick containing the accumulated knowledge of humankind that he must deliver to that person, to that destination. But the journey ahead is fraught with danger. Beyond the city’s walls lies a devastated wilderness teeming with billions of desperate, feral survivors who have abandoned their humanity for the sake of a single goal—survival. Aided by an unlikely group of companions, Iulius must navigate treacherous terrain, evade bloodthirsty marauders, and confront his own fears, all while racing to complete his chronicle before he, too, becomes just another casualty of the apocalyptic wasteland.
What if the version of the gospel you’ve been taught isn’t the one God actually revealed? Many believers today confuse God’s New Covenant with the one promised to the remnant of Judah and Israel or else reduce it to a doctrine of love and grace, stripped of its transformative demands. As a result, the New Covenant’s true terms, purpose, and method of fulfillment have been blurred, and many people’s eternal future is in peril. Drawing directly from Scripture, this book cuts through the confusion by presenting a clear, Spirit-led understanding of the New Covenant of the Spirit (2 Cor 3:6). It examines the covenant’s core attributes, challenges conventional interpretations of the gospel, and reveals the righteous requirements for entering God’s eternal kingdom. Faith in Christ is not passive but calls for a whole-hearted commitment—body, soul, and mind. Furthermore, true obedience to the Spirit brings about the renewal of the mind and transformation into Christ’s likeness, an essential conversion for those who would like to dwell in the New Jerusalem. Judgment awaits every person according to their deeds. But God’s wrath can be avoided. Grace is not a loophole; it is a divine gift, and repentance must be genuine. This book invites readers to take seriously the call to righteousness, to understand grace as God defines it, and to prepare for the kingdom where holiness is both the standard and the joy of eternal life with Christ and the saints.
