The River Is Waiting : A Novel. by Lamb, Wally.;
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of two Oprah Book Club Picks--She's Come Undone and I Know This Much Is True--Wally Lamb, comes the propulsive story of a young father who, after an unbearable tragedy, reckons with the possibility of atonement for the unforgivable. Corby Ledbetter is struggling. New fatherhood, the loss of his job, and a growing secret addiction have thrown his marriage to his beloved Emily into a tailspin. And that's before he causes the tragedy that tears the family apart. Sentenced to prison, Corby struggles to survive life on the inside, where he bears witness to frightful acts of brutality but also experiences small acts of kindness and elemental kinship with a prison librarian who sees his light and some of his fellow offenders, including a tender-hearted cellmate and a troubled teen desperate for a role model. Buoyed by them and by his mother's enduring faith in him, Corby begins to transcend the boundaries of his confinement, sustained by his hope that mercy and reconciliation might still be possible. Can his crimes ever be forgiven by those he loves?Library Bound Incorporated

Ten little lambs / by Meredith, Samantha.;
"Ten little lambs are leaving the farm and going off on an adventure. They zoom around in outer space, rock out on stage at a concert, find buried treasure and much more. But every time they go somewhere new, one lamb gets left behind: Ten daring lambs go out for the day. One felt worried so decided to stay. This casebound board book also includes tactile silicon lambs. On every page there are die-cut shapes for the lambs' faces to appear through so that every time the child turns the page, there is one less animal to count. The tactile nature of each page encourages children to explore and practice numbers from a young age. This fantastic book is perfect to share together at bedtime as there is so much to spot and look out for in the busy illustrated scenes as well as fun rhyming text to read aloud."--

A lamb to the slaughter / by Johnstone, William W.,author.; Johnstone, J. A.,author.;
Welcome to Tinhorn, Texas. Now Go Home. Two drifters, flush with cash and looking to buy cattle, arrive in town -- one nursing a bullet wound he claims he received accidently when his friend was cleaning his gun. Jackson and Moran are suspicious but have no reason to challenge their story -- until four more drifters show up looking for the first two. Moran may not be lightning quick when it comes to numbers, but reports say the Wells Fargo office was held up by six men ... But Moran is going to need more bullets. He's been called upon to go after Abel Crowe and his three sons on a murder and kidnapping charge. And with Jesse Slocum breaking out of prison to wreak vengeance on Sheriff Jackson, who killed Slocum's brother, the young deputy is going to make his name one bullet at a time -- or die trying...

She's a lamb! : a novel / by Hambrock, Meredith,author.;
"A darkly comic suspense in the vein of All's Well and Yellowface, She's a Lamb! is an edgy and incisive novel that marches toward showtime with a growing unease about the dangers of magical thinking and the depths of delusion. Jessamyn St. Germain is meant to be a star. Not an actor who occasionally books yogurt commercials and certainly not a lowly usher at one of Vancouver's smallest regional theaters. No, she is bound for greatness, and that's why the part of Maria in the theater's upcoming production of The Sound of Music is hers. Or it's going to be. Jessamyn may have been relegated to the position of childminder for the little brats playing the von Trapp children, but it's so obvious she's there for a different reason -- the director wants her close to the role so when Samantha, the lead, inevitably fails, Jessamyn will be there to take her place in the spotlight. This must be it. Because if it isn't, well, then every skipped meal, every brutal rehearsal, every inch won against a man attempting to drag her down will have all been for nothing. Sharp, relentless, and darkly funny, She's a Lamb! is a cutting satire about the grotesque pall patriarchy casts over one woman's delusional quest to achieve her dreams and the depths she will sink to for a chance at the life she's convinced she deserves."--
