A 19th-century conspiracy is about to be shattered by a 21st-century forensic artist.

In 1857, a wagon train in Utah was assaulted by a group of militant Mormons calling themselves the Avenging Angels. One hundred and forty people were murdered, including unarmed men, women, and children. The Mountain Meadows Massacre remains controversial to this day--but the truth may be written on the skulls of the victims.

When renowned forensic artist Gwen Marcey is recruited to reconstruct the faces of recently unearthed victims at Mountain Meadows, she isn't expecting more than an interesting gig . . . and a break from her own hectic life.

But when Gwen stumbles on the ritualized murder of a young college student, her work on the massacre takes on a terrifying new aspect, and research quickly becomes a race against modern-day fundamentalist terror.

As evidence of a cover-up mounts--a cover-up spanning the entire history of the Mormon church--Gwen finds herself in the crosshairs of a secret society bent on fulfilling prophecy and revenging old wrongs.

Can a forensic artist reconstruct two centuries of suppressed history . . . before it repeats itself?

In A Cry from the Dust, Carrie Stuart Parks utilizes her own background as a celebrated, FBI-trained forensic artist to blend fact and fiction into a stunning mystery.

"Parks' fast-paced and suspenseful debut novel is an entertaining addition to the inspirational genre. Her writing is polished, and the research behind the novel brings credibility to the story . . . An excellent book that is sure to put Carrie Stuart Parks on readers' radar." --RT Book Reviews, 4 stars

"Besides having a resourceful and likeable heroine, the book also features that rarest of characters: a villain you don't see coming, but whom you hate with relish . . . A Cry from the Dust will keep you hoping, praying and guessing till the end." --BookPage

"Renowned forensic artist Parks's action-packed and compelling tale of suspense is haunting in its intensity. Well researched and written in an almost journalistic style, this emotionally charged story is recommended for fans of Ted Dekker, Mary Higgins Clark, and historical suspense." --Library Journal

"Parks's real-life career as a forensic artist lends remarkable authenticity to her enthralling novel, A Cry from the Dust. Her work is a fresh new voice in suspense, and I became an instant fan. Highly recommended " --Colleen Coble, USA TODAY bestselling author of the Hope Beach Series and The View from Rainshadow Bay

Very good brush and system!
This toothbrush exceeded my expectations. The charging base is a well thought out system that includes a charging base, a cup for rinsing and a slot to sanitize your brush with UV light, and the kit also comes with 3 toothbrush heads to start with. The brush itself is powerful and makes my teeth feel really clean, almost like a professional cleaning at the dentist. The pink color is also super cute (a nice plus), and the price is very reasonable, especially if using the coupon for $29 that they run sometimes.

It works!
I tried these on my teenage son who has pretty yellow teeth after braces. You can’t really tell in pics but in person they made a difference. He hasn’t had any odd side effects or sore gums from using them and said they were easy to use. He wears them for the recommended amount of time although started lower the first time to make sure he wasn’t allergic or anything. But so far great product and we are happy with it!

Work about as well as drugstore brands.
These are at least as good as the national brands at a fraction of the cost. They stick on easily and used as directed will whiten your teeth a few shades over the course of treatment.
