Incredibly, Ryker, Heath, and Denver are not brothers by blood, but life has made them closer than family. All the brothers come with their unique skills, and it is these skills that have set them apart and made them successful in their business. Ryker is the muscle, and fighting bad guys come naturally to him. Heath is the PR person, while Denver, who prefers to stay behind the scenes, is the Tech guy. Together, the trio is nothing but powerful, and the prowess in investigative matters is evident throughout this book. Their abilities and work have earned them a few enemies who are keen to eliminate them and destroy their business.

A Liverpudlian West Side Story: twin brothers are separated at birth because their mother cannot afford to keep them both. She gives one of them away to wealthy Mrs Lyons and they grow up as friends in ignorance of their fraternity until the inevitable quarrel unleashes a blood-bath. ‘Willy Russell is less concerned with political tub-thumping than with weaving a close-knit story about the working of fate and destiny … it carries one along with it in almost unreserved enjoyment” Guardian One of the longest-running and most successful ever West End musicals, Blood Brothers premiered at the Liverpool Playhouse in January 1983. Blood Brothers by Willy Russell – eBook Details Additionally, a past that he would also wish to forget is resurfacing and threatening to make his life even more difficult. It does not help that a beautiful woman that he has deep feelings for is in danger, and Ryker can do everything humanly possible to ensure that she is safe. Zara Remington is the woman Ryker is obsessed with. An exile in his native land, Elias began a years-long struggle with his love for the Jewish people and the world's misunderstanding of his own people, the Palestinians. How was he to respond? He found his answer in the simple, haunting words of the Man of Galilee: "Blessed are the peacemakers."William Russell is a British dramatist, lyricist, and composer. His best-known works are Educating Rita, Shirley Valentine, and Blood Brothers. In 2000, Russell published his first novel, The Wrong Boy. In epistolary form, main character Raymond Marks, a 19-year old from Manchester, tells the story of his life in letters to his hero Morrissey. This is both a memoir of the author's work in peacemaking, and a history of the unrest between Israel and Palestine. The things I most enjoyed about this was the little pieces of comedy, and how there was this whole superstition thing that tied the plot together.

As a child, Elias Chacour lived in a small Palestinian village in Galilee. The townspeople were proud of their ancient Christian heritage and lived at peace with their Jewish neighbors. But early in 1947, their idyllic lifestyle was swept away as tens of thousands of Palestinians were killed and nearly one million forced into refugee camps. Before reading this book I thought I had quite a balanced view on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. After reading this book I see how I also fell victim to the Israel-as-hero story. No, I didn't approve everything Israel does, especially the last decades, and yes, I did feel that the rights of Arabs needed to be more taken into consideration. But at the same time I had this feeling of the Israeli state as being inherently good. They make mistakes, agreed, but aren't they all just well meaning people? This book is a memoir, the personal account of the author's experiences living, first in the British Mandate of Palestine and then, after the Israeli war of independence, in Israel. But the author isn't Jewish, but rather a Palestinian Christian whose family had peacefully farmed their land in Galilee for generations. But the creation of the state of Israel changed all of that. Their lands were seized and the family became refugees in their own homeland. I don't really read a lot of plays/musicals and if I do read them, they aren't usually in this genre. But during my GCSEs, this was one of the plays selected for me to study for my exams- so basically I was forced to read this. However, I was surprised that I did enjoy this a little. In the midst of all the conflict between the Arabs and the Jews, God called upon Elias to help bring peace to the two groups. He attends various schools in an effort to make this peace. Jews and Palestinians in Israel. The book is about how Jews and Arabs are, in fact, blood brothers and should treat each other as such.

The Blood Brothers is a trilogy of romance-suspense by Rebecca Zanetti. It’s the story about three brothers who run an investigative agency, their colorful pasts, and the actions they are involved in their lines of duty. The series also highlights the characters’ love-lives and the effects that several strong and smart women have on their lives. Elias Chacour grew up in Biram, a relatively small town in Galilee. He was welcomed into the world with a loving family who believed in Jesus Christ. He enjoyed going on spiritual walks with Jesus, his savior and role model. However the best things in life don’t often last forever. In young Elias’ case, it was World War II. Following the aftermath of Hitler, Palestine grudgingly welcomed Zionist Jews and their military. They confiscated the houses, farms, and churches from the people. God called on Elias to bring peace between Arabs and Jews. He was able to find education in a bishop’s school, and further understand the Arab-Israeli conflict. Elias struggled to love the Jews, and he struggles to clarify the misunderstanding of his people. The men of Galilee are able to help him with a saying. “Blessed are the peacemakers.” The superb score includes Bright New Day, Marilyn Monroe and the emotionally charged hit Tell Me It’s Not True.
