PICKS OF THE SEASON<br />

FALL 2013<br />

Welcome to Skylight’s Fall 2013 Hotlist Catalogue. Fall, the biggest book publishing season of the year,<br />

encompassing the daunting task of perusing catalogues, journal reviews, selection lists and patron<br />

requests. It’s easy to spot the ever popular and in-demand authors, series and genres but what to do<br />

about those lesser titles, emerging authors and the “promise” of an upcoming bestseller or series?<br />

Good news. Our devoted publisher representatives are here to assist and offer recommendations in your<br />

buying decisions. In similar fashion to our preview events, our representatives have gathered together<br />

their “picks” of the upcoming Fall 2013 season.<br />

We thank the following representatives for taking time from their busiest selling season<br />

to share their “picks”.<br />

A<br />

ALEXIS, ANDRE<br />

A is a work of fiction in which André Alexis presents the compelling narrative of Alexander Baddeley, a<br />

Toronto book reviewer obsessed with the work of the elusive and mythical poet Avery Andrews. Baddeley<br />

is in awe with Andrews’s ability as a poet – more than anything he wants to understand the inspiration<br />

behind his work – so much so that, following in the footsteps of countless pilgrims throughout literary<br />

history, Baddeley actually tracks Andrews down thinking that meeting his literary hero will provide some<br />

answers. Their meeting results in a meditation and a revelation about the creative act itself that generates<br />

more and more questions about what it means to be “inspired.” Alexis further develops this narrative<br />

through a reflection in essay form presented as an annex that build layers of thought upon not only the<br />

original narrative, but provides Alexis’s own motives (and perhaps, obsessions) behind writing A.<br />

THE ABOMINABLE<br />

SIMMONS, DAN<br />

It's 1924 and the race to summit the world's highest mountain has been brought to a terrified pause by the<br />

shocking disappearance of George Mallory and Sandy Irvine high on the shoulder of Mt. Everest. By the<br />

following year, three climbers -- a British poet and veteran of the Great War, a young French Chamonix<br />

guide, and an idealistic young American -- find a way to take their shot at the top. They arrange funding<br />

from the grieving Lady Bromley, whose son also disappeared on Mt. Everest in 1924. Young Bromley<br />

must be dead, but his mother refuses to believe it and pays the trio to bring him home. Deep in Tibet and<br />

high on Everest, the three climbers -- joined by the missing boy's female cousin -- find themselves being<br />

pursued through the night by someone . . . or something. This nightmare becomes a matter of life and<br />

death at 28,000 feet - but what is pursuing them? And what is the truth behind the 1924 disappearances<br />

on Everest? As they fight their way to the top of the world, the friends uncover a secret far more<br />

abominable than any mythical creature could ever be. A pulse-pounding story of adventure and suspense,<br />

The Abominable is Dan Simmons at his spine-chilling best.<br />

ACCUSATION<br />

BUSH, CATHERINE<br />

While in Copenhagen, Sara Wheeler, a Toronto journalist, happens upon Cirkus Mirak, a touring<br />

Ethiopian children’s circus. She later meets and is convinced to drive the circus founder, Raymond<br />

Renaud, through the night from Toronto to Montreal. Such chance beginnings lead to later fateful<br />

encounters, as renowned novelist Catherine Bush artfully confronts the destructive power of allegations.<br />

After a friend of Sara’s begins work on a documentary about the circus, unsettling charges begin to float<br />

to the surface, disturbing tales of sexual and physical abuse at the hands of Raymond. Accounts and<br />

anecdotes mount, denunciations fly, and while Sara strives to untangle the narrative knots and determine<br />

what to believe, the concept of a singular “truth” becomes slippery. Her present search is simultaneously<br />

haunted by her past. Moving between Canada, Ethiopia, and Australia, Accusation follows a network of<br />

lives that intersect with life-altering consequence, painfully revealing that the best of intentions can still<br />

lead to disaster. Yet from disaster spring seeds of renewal and hope.<br />

ACCUSED<br />

SCOTTOLINE, LISA<br />

New York Times bestselling and Edgar Award-winning author Lisa Scottoline revolutionized crime fiction<br />

when she introduced her all-female law firm of Rosato & Associates, thrilling readers with her twisty, fastpaced<br />

plots and capturing their hearts with her cast of strong yet totally relatable female characters. Fans<br />

have been clamoring for more stories with the characters they've come to know and love, so Bennie<br />

Rosato, Mary DiNunzio, Judy Carrier, and Anne Murphy are back with all cylinders firing in Accused.<br />

They'll face their most challenging and dangerous case ever. It begins with an astonishing request from a<br />

thirteen-year-old prospective client. Allegra Gardner’s sister Fiona was murdered six years ago. It<br />

seemed like an open-and-shut case: the accused, Lonnie Stall, was seen fleeing the scene; his blood<br />

was on Fiona and her blood was on him; most damningly, Lonnie Stall pleaded guilty. But Allegra<br />

believes Lonnie is innocent and has been wrongly imprisoned. Taking on the case seems foolhardy to<br />

Mary DiNunzio, because the Gardner family is one of the richest and most powerful in the country and<br />

Allegra’s parents do not believe in reopening this case. But the Rosato & Associates firm can never resist<br />

an underdog. Was justice really served all those years ago? It will take a team of unstoppable female<br />

lawyers, plus one thirteen-year-old genius, to find out. Accused kicks off an annual fall series featuring<br />

the new adventures of Rosato & Associates, delivering all the emotion, action, and humor we've come to<br />

expect from one of the best writers in the business.<br />

THE AFFAIRS OF OTHERS<br />

LOYD, AMY GRACE<br />

A mesmerizing debut novel about a young woman, haunted by loss, who rediscovers passion and<br />

possibility when she’s drawn into the tangled lives of her neighbors. Five years after her young husband’s<br />

death, Celia Cassill has moved from one Brooklyn neighborhood to another, but she has not moved on.<br />

The owner of a small apartment building, she has chosen her tenants for their ability to respect one<br />

another’s privacy. Celia believes in boundaries, solitude, that she has a right to her ghosts. She is<br />

determined to live a life at a remove from the chaos and competition of modern life. Everything changes<br />

with the arrival of a new tenant, Hope, a dazzling woman of a certain age on the run from her husband’s<br />

recent betrayal. When Hope begins a torrid and noisy affair, and another tenant mysteriously disappears,<br />

the carefully constructed walls of Celia’s world are soon tested and the sanctity of her building is<br />

shattered—through violence and sex, in turns tender and dark. Ultimately, Celia and her tenants are<br />

forced to abandon their separate spaces for a far more intimate one, leading to a surprising conclusion<br />

and the promise of genuine joy.<br />

MENDELSON, CHARLOTTE<br />

In a tiny flat in West London, sixteen-year-old Marina lives with her emotionally delicate mother, Laura,<br />

and three ancient Hungarian relatives. Imprisoned by her family’s crushing expectations and their fierce<br />

unEnglish pride, by their strange traditions and stranger foods, she knows she must escape. But the<br />

place she runs to makes her feel even more of an outsider. At Combe Abbey, a traditional English public<br />

school for which her family have sacrificed everything, she realises she has made a terrible mistake. She<br />

is the awkward half-foreign girl who doesn’t know how to fit in, flirt or even be. And as a semi-Hungarian<br />

Londoner, who is she? In the meantime, her mother Laura, an alien in this strange universe, has her own<br />

painful secrets to deal with, especially the return of the last man she’d expect back in her life. She isn’t<br />

noticing that, at Combe Abbey, things are starting to go terribly wrong.<br />

Derbyshire's CID have discovered a man's body lying in shallow water, but torrential rain has swollen the<br />

rivers and flooded the roads, making travel difficult and forensic examination impossible. And that's not<br />

all. The absence of DS Ben Cooper, on extended leave after an arson attack, has left a serious gap. DS<br />

Diane Fry is a reluctant temporary replacement, but the fatal events of one damp August night are likely<br />

to remain shrouded in mystery if they can't track down a car glimpsed only as a dark outline in the rain by<br />

a passer-by. As the rain turns into a deluge, it emerges that Ben Cooper has vanished into thin air...<br />

CHAPMAN, DREW<br />

Numbers don’t lie. Not according to Garrett Reilly who, just two weeks past his twenty-sixth birthday,<br />

thinks he’s probably the best bond analyst at his brokerage—maybe even the best in all of Manhattan.<br />

Garrett’s memory for numbers is photographic. But he doesn’t just memorize them; he sorts them, ranks<br />

them, senses patterns in them. As he watches buy and sell numbers float across his Bloomberg terminal,<br />

Garrett notices what nobody else can: that US Treasury bonds are being sold off at an alarming rate—two<br />

hundred billion dollars’ worth. It’s a discovery that he knows will make him incredibly rich. Then the United<br />

States military arrives at his office, and Garrett’s life is blown to pieces. As Captain Alexis Truffant<br />

explains, Garrett has stumbled upon something much larger—and scarier—than he could have imagined:<br />

the first attack in a covert war of unthinkable proportions. His biggest problem? Numbers don’t lie…but<br />

governments can.<br />

AUNTY LEE'S DELIGHTS: A SINGAPOREAN MYSTERY<br />

YU, OVIDIA<br />

After losing her husband, Rosie Lee could easily have become one of Singapore’s “tai tai,” an idle rich<br />

lady devoted to mah-jongg and luxury shopping. Instead she threw herself into building a culinary empire<br />

from her restaurant, Aunty Lee’s Delights, where spicy Singaporean home cooking is graciously served to<br />

locals and tourists alike. But when a body is found in one of Singapore’s beautiful tourist havens, and<br />

when one of her wealthy guests fails to show at a dinner party, Aunty Lee knows that the two are likely<br />

connected. The murder and disappearance throws together Aunty Lee’s henpecked stepson Mark, his<br />

social-climbing wife Selina, a gay couple whose love is still illegal in Singapore, and an elderly Australian<br />

tourist couple whose visit—billed at first as a pleasure cruise—may mask a deeper purpose. Investigating<br />

the murder is rookie Police Commissioner Raja, who quickly discovers that the savvy and well-connected<br />

Aunty Lee can track down clues even better than local law enforcement.<br />

she’s going to need a lot of help. But time is running out, the dead are growing restless, and one mistake<br />

BACK TO BACK<br />

FRANCK, JULIA<br />

Back to Back begins in 1954, and centers around a single family living in Berlin in the socialist East. The<br />

mother, Käthe, is a sculptor of Jewish heritage, who has been leveraging her party connections in order to<br />

get more important and significant commissions. Devoted entirely to becoming a success in the socialist<br />

state, she is a cruel and completely unaffectionate mother, putting the party above her children, who she<br />

treats as if they were adults - there is no bourgeois mollycoddling in her household. Thomas and Ella's<br />

father emigrated to West Germany after World War II, and they deeply long to see him again and dream<br />

of a life where they could be allowed to have the kind of childhood that other children enjoy. But Käthe's<br />

hard-nosed brutality - a reflection of the materialistic, unsentimental state in which she lives - means<br />

Thomas and Ella are unable to live the lives they want to - instead of his dream of becoming a writer,<br />

Thomas is forced to study geology, and do hard labor at a quarry as the practical part of his education.<br />

And Ella, meanwhile, is becoming increasingly introverted and strange - not least because the Stasi<br />

lodger the government has billetted in their home is beginning to abuse her...<br />

Six strangers wake up on a remote island in the Florida Keys with no memory of their arrival. They soon<br />

discover their sole common bond: all are heroin addicts from the slums of Miami. As their excruciating<br />

withdrawal begins, the six face their captors across open water. The four shadowy figures on the yacht<br />

are dangerous predators who know that their victims’ need never falters—and that the creatures that<br />

swim beneath the waves have equally rapacious appetites. So begins a dangerous game. The six must<br />

make an impossible choice—swim to the next island, where a cache of the purest heroin awaits, or die<br />

trying. Alliances form among them that may seal their fate—or extend it. As the fight to survive intensifies,<br />

the astonishing motivations of the men onboard the boat emerge, raising the stakes to towering heights.<br />

An adventure that pinpoints the distance between fragility and strength, Bait pulls the reader in deep.<br />

BASTION<br />

LACKEY, MERCEDES<br />

Mags returns to the Collegium, but there are mixed feelings--his included--about him actually remaining<br />

there. No one doubts that he is and should be a Herald, but he is afraid that his mere presence is going to<br />

incite more danger right in the heart of Valdemar. The heads of the Collegia are afraid that coming back to<br />

his known haunt is going to give him less protection than if he went into hiding. Everyone decides that<br />

going elsewhere is the solution for now. So since he is going elsewhere--why not return to the place he<br />

was found in the first place and look for clues? And those who are closest to him, and might provide<br />

secondary targets, are going along. With Herald Jadrek, Herald Kylan (the Weaponsmaster's chosen<br />

successor), and his friends Bear, Lena, and Amily, they head for the Bastion, the hidden spot in the hills<br />

that had once been the headquarters of a powerful band of raiders that had held him and his parents<br />

prisoner. But what they find is not what anyone expected.<br />

** MANITOBAN **BEHAVING THIS WAY IS ALL I HAVE LEFT<br />

RIEDEL, GONZALO<br />

A woman poisons her husband, who sputters and keels over but will not die. A man has his restaurant<br />

burned down, then retraces the steps, certain he has made a mistake. A tightrope walker slips off the<br />

cable and dangles over the crowd by her fingers. Despite their best efforts, people always screw up.<br />

Gonzalo Riedel writes about fools and lowlifes who cannot help but make mistakes. His stories are taut<br />

and perversely funny, often punctuated with moments of heartbreak, and his characters are classic<br />

scumbags who put their own interests before all else, to hell with everyone else.<br />

BELLMAN AND BLACK<br />

SETTERFIELD, DIANE<br />

Bellman & Black is a heart-thumpingly perfect ghost story. Its hero is William Bellman, who, as a boy of<br />

11, killed a shiny black rook with a catapult, and who grew up to be someone, his neighbours think, who<br />

"could go to the good or the bad." And indeed, although William Bellman's life at first seems blessed--he<br />

has a happy marriage to a beautiful woman, becomes father to a brood of bright, strong children, and<br />

thrives in business--one by one, people around him die. And at each funeral, he is startled to see a<br />

strange man in black, smiling at him. At first, the dead are distant relatives, but eventually his own<br />

children die, and then his wife, leaving behind only one child, his favourite, Dora. Unhinged by grief,<br />

William gets drunk and stumbles to his wife's fresh grave--and who should be there waiting, but the<br />

smiling stranger in black. The stranger has a proposition for William--a mysterious business called<br />

"Bellman & Black" . .<br />

Paull is found—shot dead. With top officials in the CIA and FBI after him, McClure, still devastated over<br />

his friend’s death, goes on the run. Someone framed him for Paull's murder, possibly to prevent him from<br />

McClure and Paull have ever come across. McClure has been charged with securing the name of the<br />

BITTER RIVER<br />

KELLER, JULIA<br />

Julia Keller’s A Killing in the Hills was one of the most acclaimed debuts of 2012. Set in Acker’s Gap, a<br />

beautiful but poverty-stricken West Virginia mountain town, Keller’s combination of shocking suspense<br />

and spellbinding characterization garnered her four starred reviews and won over critics and readers<br />

alike. Bell Elkins, the county prosecuting attorney, is the main character alongside the town itself, where<br />

she grew up—her family story is part and parcel of the tragedy of the place, but she hasn’t given up on it.<br />

Like Dana Stabenow’s Alaska or Dennis Lehane’s South Boston, the place defines the people and their<br />

stories. Bell’s latest case is a bad one: pregnant sixteen-year-old Lucinda Trimble’s body has been found<br />

at the bottom of Bitter River. And Lucinda didn't drown—she was dead before her body ever hit the<br />

water. But that’s not all Bell is coping with these days. Her daughter is now living with Bell’s ex-husband,<br />

hours away. Sheriff Nick Fogelsong, one of Bell’s closest friends, is behaving oddly. Furthermore, a face<br />

from her past has resurfaced for reasons Bell can’t quite figure. Searching for the truth, both behind<br />

Lucinda’s murder and behind her own complicated relationships, will lead Bell down a path that might put<br />

her very life at risk.<br />

BLEEDING EDGE<br />

PYNCHON, THOMAS<br />

It is 2001 in New York City, in the lull between the collapse of the dot-com boom and the terrible events of<br />

September 11th. There may not be quite as much money around as there was at the height of the tech<br />

bubble, but there’s no shortage of swindlers looking to grab a piece of what’s left. Maxine Tarnow is<br />

running a nice little fraud investigation business on the Upper West Side, chasing down different kinds of<br />

small-scale con artists. She used to be legally certified but her license got pulled a while back, which has<br />

actually turned out to be a blessing because now she can follow her own code of ethics—carry a Beretta,<br />

do business with sleazebags, hack into people’s bank accounts—without having too much guilt about any<br />

of it. Otherwise, just your average working mom—two boys in elementary school, an off-and-on situation<br />

with her sort of semi-ex-husband Horst, life as normal as it ever gets in the neighborhood—till Maxine<br />

starts looking into the finances of a computer-security firm and its billionaire geek CEO, whereupon things<br />

begin rapidly to jam onto the subway and head downtown. She soon finds herself mixed up with a drug<br />

runner in an art deco motorboat, a professional nose obsessed with Hitler’s aftershave, a neoliberal<br />

enforcer with footwear issues, plus elements of the Russian mob and various bloggers, hackers, code<br />

monkeys, and entrepreneurs, some of whom begin to show up mysteriously dead. Foul play, of course.<br />

BLOOD ON A SAINT<br />

EMERY, ANNE<br />

In the seventh book of the deftly written Collins-Burke Mystery series, Father Brennan Burke’s patience is<br />

pushed to the limit when a young woman announces to the world that the Virgin Mary has appeared to<br />

her in the churchyard, and hordes of pilgrims, souvenir hawkers, and reporters converge on the scene.<br />

But, as unwelcome as these guests may be, they pale in comparison to yet another aggravation in Father<br />

Burke’s life, a controversial talk show host who clashes with Burke upon arriving in town. Events take a<br />

darker turn when a body is found at the apparition site, and the talk show host is picked up for the murder.<br />

Monty and Brennan both have a stake in uncovering the truth about the murder, but neither man can talk<br />

to the other about what he has learned, however, due to solicitor–client confidentiality on one side, the<br />

seal of the confessional on the other.<br />

Cooper Cartwright. But Heather's got even bigger problems: A pretty freshman has turned up dead after<br />

A tearful mother and bride reunion is the last thing Heather has time for, especially with a wedding cake<br />

the farmer's wife and their daughters learn there is another side to the sensational story they've heard.<br />

Riveting and rich with lyricism, BURIAL RITES evokes a dramatic existence in a distant time and place,<br />

and asks the question, how can one woman hope to endure when her life depends upon the stories told<br />

CARISSIMA<br />

CHIOFALO, ROSANNA<br />

In college, Pia Santore dreamed of going to New York and taking the Big Apple by storm with her younger<br />

sister Erica. Instead, Pia has arrived in Astoria, Queens, with a prestigious journalism internship at a<br />

celebrity magazine. . .and without Erica. Though the neighborhood has an abundance of appeal--<br />

including the delectable confections sold at her Aunt Antoniella's bakery--the pain of losing Erica a few<br />

years ago still feels fresh. Pia's arrival coincides with an unexpected sighting. Italian movie icon<br />

Francesca Donata is rumored to be staying nearby, every bit as voluptuous and divaesque as in her<br />

heyday. With the help of a handsome local artist with ties to Francesca's family, Pia convinces the legend<br />

CATARACT CITY<br />

DAVIDSON, CRAIG<br />

Owen and Duncan are childhood friends who've grown up in picturesque Niagara Falls--known to them by<br />

the grittier name Cataract City. As the two know well, there's more to the bordertown than meets the eye:<br />

behind the gaudy storefronts and sidewalk vendors, past the hawkers of tourist T-shirts and cheap<br />

souvenirs live the real people who scrape together a living by toiling at the Bisk, the local cookie factory.<br />

And then there are the truly desperate, those who find themselves drawn to the borderline and a world of<br />

dog-racing, bare-knuckle fighting, and night-time smuggling. Owen and Duncan think they are different:<br />

both dream of escape, a longing made more urgent by a near-death incident in childhood that sealed their<br />

bond. But in adulthood their paths diverge, and as Duncan, the less privileged, falls deep into the town's<br />

underworld, he and Owen become reluctant adversaries at opposite ends of the law. At stake is not only<br />

survival and escape, but a lifelong friendship that can only be broken at an unthinkable price.<br />

DOBSON, JAMES<br />

The next installment in the riveting new trilogy from Dr. James Dobson and Kurt Bruner transports readers<br />

to a not-to-distant future when the young and healthy strain under the burden of a rapidly aging<br />

population. Everyone is nervous about how Judge Victor Santiago will rule. The case involved the tragic<br />

demise of a loving mother and her disabled son. A common medical procedure has somehow created<br />

havoc across the legal and economic landscape. The president's popular Youth Initiative is losing<br />

momentum. Political and economic fortunes are at stake. That's why someone, somewhere, would rather<br />

put the judge in his grave than risk a wrong decision. Tyler Cain, a once respected police detective turned<br />

sleazy private investigator, has been pulled into the middle of events way above his pay grade. He hopes<br />

the case will restore some measure of dignity. But does he have what it takes to find the potential<br />

assassin before time runs out? He seeks help from Julia Davidson, a newly married journalist, who finds<br />

herself torn between the influence she craves and the husband she loves. She wants significance. But he<br />

wants a child.<br />

CHILDREN OF THE REVOLUTION<br />

ROBINSON, PETER<br />

A disgraced college lecturer is found murdered with £5,000 in his pocket on a disused railway line near<br />

his home. Since being dismissed from his job for sexual misconduct four years previously, he has been<br />

living a poverty-stricken and hermit-like existence in this isolated spot. There are many suspects, mostly<br />

at the college where he used to teach, but Banks, much to the chagrin of Detective Chief Superintendent<br />

Gervaise, soon becomes fixated on Lady Veronica Chalmers, who appears to have links with the victim<br />

going back to the early '70s at the University of Essex, then a hotbed of political activism. When Banks<br />

suspects that Lady Chalmers is not telling him the whole truth and pushes his inquiries a bit too far, he is<br />

brought on the carpet and warned to lay off. He must continue to conduct his investigation surreptitiously,<br />

under the radar, with the help of new DC Geraldine Masterson, while DI Annie Cabbot and DS Winsome<br />

Jackman continue to rattle skeletons at Eastvale College. When the breakthroughs come, they are not<br />

the ones that Banks and his team expected, and everything turns in a different direction, and moves into<br />

higher gear.<br />

COLD STORAGE ALASKA<br />

STRALEY, JOHN<br />

Cold Storage, Alaska, is a remote fishing outpost where salmonberries sparkle in the morning frost and<br />

where you just might catch a King Salmon if you’re zen enough to wait for it. Settled in 1935 by Norse<br />

fishermen who liked to skinny dip in its natural hot springs, the town enjoyed prosperity in the mid-20th<br />

Century, at the height of the frozen fish boom. But now the cold storage plant is all but abandoned and<br />

the population is shrinking every day. Clive “The Milkman” McCahon returns to his tiny Alaska hometown<br />

after a 7-year jail stint for dealing coke. He has a lot to make up to his younger brother, Miles, who has<br />

dutifully been taking care of their ailing mother—and, really, all of Cold Storage—Miles is a Physician’s<br />

Assistant and the closest thing to a doctor this side of Sitka. But Clive doesn’t realize the trouble he’s<br />

bringing home. He’s reformed now, and his dream is to open a bar-slash-church (a Cold Storage<br />

ordinance requires there to be as many churches in town as there are bars). Clive’s vengeful old business<br />

partner is hot on his heels, a stick-in-the-mud State Trooper is dying to bust Clive for narcotics, and, to<br />

complicate everything, Clive might be going insane—lately, he’s been hearing animals talking to him. Will<br />

his arrival in Cold Storage be a breath of fresh air for the sleepy, depopulated town? Or will Clive’s arrival<br />

turn the whole place upside-down?<br />

COMING CLEAN<br />

MARGOLIS, SUE<br />

Eleven years ago, Sophie and Greg couldn’t get enough of each other. A pair of full-time jobs and two<br />

kids later, they’re in therapy asking themselves where all the sexy times went. Sophie thinks she knows:<br />

They’re buried under Greg’s mess. And even though her slob of a husband tries to make up for his<br />

shortcomings by cooking the occasional meal, Sophie is left to clean umpteen dirty dishes. The last straw<br />

is when Greg uses some inheritance money to buy a World War II Sherman tank, which starts World War<br />

III in their marriage. Sophie doesn’t so much surrender as retreat—right out of the relationship. While<br />

Greg almost immediately shacks up with someone else, Sophie finds herself facing even more<br />

uncertainty due to a job reorganization. And even though she begins to lose her heart to a high school<br />

crush, Sophie starts to realize that a shiny new relationship doesn’t always offer the softest place to<br />

fall…and she may find self-acceptance and love in the place she least expects it.<br />

In Line of Fire, the tantalizing prelude to this final book, Dr. Gregory found himself assailed by danger<br />

explosive conclusion to the decades-long saga, Alan is forced to acknowledge that the perils that may<br />

bring him to his knees are not the dangers he recognizes, nor are they orchestrated by the nemesis he<br />

has long feared. Instead he is confronted by unexpected threats from unanticipated adversaries and by<br />

intimate betrayal from those who have been closest to him. He is compelled to reconsider what he has<br />

long believed about trust and about love while he is trying to cope with overwhelming loss and grief. To<br />

protect himself he must revisit the cruel ethical dilemma that turned his life upside down as a young<br />

psychologist. He has to judge whether the people reentering his life after long absences are friends or<br />

foes. He has to make sense of echoes of distant tragedies while he decides if there is anyone he can<br />

really trust. Mostly, as the clock ticks down, he must solve a deadly mystery in Eldorado Springs that has<br />

been brewing for more than a decade.<br />

Chris and Claire Canton's marriage is on life support. Downsized during the recession and out of work for<br />

offered a position that will keep him away from home four nights a week, he dismisses Claire's concern<br />

that time apart could be the one thing their fragile union can't weather. Local police officer Daniel Rush<br />

used to have it all, but now he goes home to an empty house every night. He pulls Claire over during a<br />

CRITICAL MASS<br />

PARETSKY, SARA<br />

V.I. Warshawski’s closest friend in Chicago is the Viennese-born doctor Lotty Herschel, who lost most of<br />

her family in the Holocaust. Lotty escaped to London in 1939 on the Kindertransport with a childhood<br />

playmate, Kitty Saginor Binder. When Kitty’s daughter finds her life is in danger, she calls Lotty, who, in<br />

turn, summons V.I. to help. The daughter’s troubles turn out to be just the tip of an iceberg of lies,<br />

secrets, and silence, whose origins go back to the mad competition among America, Germany, Japan and<br />

England to develop the first atomic bomb. The secrets are old, but the people who continue to guard<br />

them today will not let go of them without a fight.<br />

FEEHAN, CHRISTINE<br />

Tatijana of the Dragonseekers spent centuries encased in ice with her sister, trapped in limbo between life<br />

and death, never speaking to a soul other than those who tormented her. Now, she has been freed from<br />

her frozen prison by an unknown descendent. Awakened in human form, Tatijana yearns to explore the<br />

modern world in which she now lives—a world with more mysteries than she is prepared for. Fenris Dalka<br />

has returned to the Carpathian Mountains after a long absence to be with his brother. He is scarred by<br />

centuries of battle, and every hard-won victory. But the real reason for his return home could prove deadly<br />

if discovered by the wrong man—or woman. Upon his arrival, he is compelled by a beautiful and<br />

enigmatic stranger who carries the scent of fresh earth, of forest, of the night itself. In time Tatijana and<br />

Fenris will discover all that unites them—their secrets and pasts, their predators, and the hot flush of<br />

passion that stirs their souls. Yet just as surely, seduced into the silvery darkness of a full-moon night,<br />

they’ll also discover everything ancient and evil that exists to destroy them.<br />

DARK WITCH<br />

ROBERTS, NORA<br />

With indifferent parents, Iona Sheehan grew up craving devotion and acceptance. From her maternal<br />

grandmother, she learned where to find both: a land of lush forests, dazzling lakes, and centuries-old<br />

legends. Ireland. County Mayo, to be exact. Where her ancestors’ blood and magic have flowed through<br />

generations—and where her destiny awaits. Iona arrives in Ireland with nothing but her Nan’s directions,<br />

an unfailingly optimistic attitude, and an innate talent with horses. Not far from the luxurious castle where<br />

she is spending a week, she finds her cousins, Branna and Connor O’Dwyer. And since family is family,<br />

they invite her into their home and their lives. When Iona lands a job at the local stables, she meets the<br />

owner, Boyle McGrath. Cowboy, pirate, wild tribal horsemen, he’s three of her biggest fantasy<br />

weaknesses all in one big, bold package. Iona realizes that here she can make a home for herself—and<br />

live her life as she wants, even if that means falling head over heels for Boyle. But nothing is as it seems.<br />

An ancient evil has wound its way around Iona’s family tree and must be defeated. Family and friends will<br />

fight with each other and for each other to keep the promise of hope—and love—alive… Book one in a<br />

new trilogy.<br />

DEAD BRILLIANT<br />

WARD, CHRISTOPHER<br />

It's all slipping away from Roc Molotov: his band, his girlfriend, and worst of all, his ability to play the<br />

game demanded by the star-making machinery of the music business. When the best record he's ever<br />

made is about to pass unnoticed, his oldest friend and manager, Uncle Strange, concocts the perfect<br />

scheme. Roc will fake his death, on MTV, in front of millions of viewers, assuring massive success on his<br />

latest project and the ability to create a body of "posthumous" songs to feed the grieving fans and satisfy<br />

his still-active artistic imagination. The plan works to perfection, but the ever-restless Roc finds that being<br />

dead has its limitations in this novel that's sex, death, and rock n' roll, played in a satirical key.<br />

Natasha Doroshenko, a Ukrainian woman who has been arrested for murdering her Danish fiance,<br />

escapes police custody on her way to an interrogation in Copenhagen's police headquarters. It isn't the<br />

first time Natasha has lost a partner to violent ends: her first husband was also murdered, three years<br />

earlier in Kiev, and in the same manner, his hands broken. At the same time, someone tries to abduct<br />

Natasha's eight-year-old daughter from the Red Cross center that has been caring for her while her<br />

mother, an illegal immigrant, was in jail. Danish Red Cross nurse Nina Borg has been following Natasha's<br />

case for several years now, since Natasha first took refuge at a crisis center where Nina works. Nina, who<br />

had tried to help Natasha leave her abusive Danish fiancé more than once, just can't see the young<br />

Ukrainian mother as a vicious killer. But in her effort to protect Natasha's daughter and discover the truth,<br />

Nina realizes there is much she didn't know about this woman and her past. The mystery has long and<br />

bloody roots, going back to a terrible famine that devastated Stalinist Ukraine in 1934.<br />

In an elite college in a once-decaying New England city, Steven Brookman has come to a decision. A<br />

extract himself from his relationship with Maud Stack, his electrifying student, whose papers are always<br />

late and too long yet always incandescent. But Maud is a young woman whose passions are not easily<br />

contained or curtailed, and their union will quickly yield tragic and far-reaching consequences. As in<br />

Robert Stone’s most acclaimed novels, here he conjures a complex moral universe where nothing is<br />

black and white, even if the characters—always complicated, always compelling—wish it were. The<br />

stakes of Brookman and Maud’s relationship prove higher than either one could have anticipated, pitting<br />

individuals against one another and against the institutions meant to protect them.<br />

DECLAN'S CROSS<br />

NEGGERS, CARLA<br />

For marine biologist Julianne Maroney, two weeks in tiny Declan's Cross on the south Irish coast is a<br />

chance to heal her broken heart. She doesn't expect to attract the attention of FBI agents Emma Sharpe<br />

and Colin Donovan-especially since a Donovan is the reason for her broken heart. Emma and Colin are in<br />

Ireland for their own personal retreat. Colin knows he's a reminder of everything Julianne wants to<br />

escape, but something about her trip raises his suspicion. Emma, an art crimes expert, is also on edge.<br />

Of all the Irish villages Julianne could choose...why Declan's Cross? Ten years ago, a thief slipped into a<br />

mansion in Declan's Cross. Emma's grandfather, a renowned art detective, investigated, but the art stolen<br />

that night has never been recovered and the elusive thief never caught. From the moment Julianne sets<br />

foot on Irish soil, everything goes wrong. The well-connected American diver who invited her to Ireland<br />

has disappeared. And now Emma and Colin are in Declan's Cross asking questions. As a dark conspiracy<br />

unfolds amid the breathtaking scenery of Declan's Cross, the race is on to stop a ruthless killer...and the<br />

stakes have never been more personal for Emma and Colin.<br />

DRONE<br />

MADEN, MIKE<br />

Troy Pearce is the CEO of Pearce Systems, a private security firm that is the best in the world at drone<br />

technologies. A former CIA SOG operative, Pearce used his intelligence and combat skills to hunt down<br />

America’s sworn enemies in the War on Terror. But after a decade of clandestine special ops, Pearce<br />

opted out. Too many of his friends had been sacrificed on the altar of political expediency. Now, Pearce<br />

and his team chose which battles he will take on by deploying his land, sea and air drones with surgical<br />

precision. New U.S. President Margaret Myers won a hotly contested election on a platform of no new<br />

foreign wars. But when her only child and a dozen other American students are killed in a cross border<br />

assault by drug cartel hit men, she secretly authorizes Pearce Systems to locate and destroy the killers<br />

sheltered in Mexico. Pearce and his team of scientists and on-the- ground task force go to work, and<br />

they are soon thrust into a showdown with the hidden powers behind the El Paso attack, and risk igniting<br />

a full-blown shooting war with America’s most dangerous enemies – at home and abroad.<br />

DUCK THE HALLS<br />

ANDREWS, DONNA<br />

The brilliantly funny and talented Donna Andrews delivers another winner in the acclaimed avian-themed<br />

series that mystery readers have come to love. A few nights before Christmas, Meg is awakened when<br />

Michael is summoned to the New Life Baptist Church, where someone has rigged a cage full of skunks in<br />

the choir loft. The lengthy process of de-skunking the church requires its annual pre-Christmas concert to<br />

relocate to Trinity Episcopal, where Mother insists the show must go on, despite the budget-related<br />

protests of Mr. Otis, an elderly vestryman. Meanwhile, when Meg helps her grandfather take the skunks<br />

to the zoo, they discover that his boa has been stolen—only to turn up later during the concert<br />

slithering out from the ribbon-bedecked evergreens. It’s clear that some serious holiday pranksters are on<br />

the loose, and Meg is determined to find them. But before she can, a fire breaks out at Trinity, and Mr.<br />

Otis is discovered dead. Could this be a bit of nasty revenge from the now deposed Pruitt family? Or<br />

harassment from the Evil Lender? As Meg searches for answers she also races to finish all of her<br />

Christmas shopping, wrapping, cooking, caroling, and decorating in time to make the season jolly for<br />

Michael and the twins.<br />

CORNWELL, PATRICIA<br />

After working one of the worst mass killings in U.S. history, Scarpetta returns home to Cambridge,<br />

Massachusetts. Exhausted and ill, she’s recovering at home when she receives an unsettling call. The<br />

body of a young woman has been discovered on the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's rugby field.<br />

The victim, a graduate student named Gail Shipman, is oddly draped in ivory linen and posed in a way<br />

that is too deliberate to be the killer's first strike. A preliminary examination in the sea of red mud where<br />

the body has been left also reveals a bizarre residue that fluoresces blood red, emerald green and<br />

sapphire blue. Physical evidence links the case to a series of uniquely weird homicides in Washington,<br />

D.C., where Scarpetta's FBI husband has been deployed to help capture a serial killer dubbed the Capital<br />

Murderer. The cases all connect and yet seem to conflict. Gail Shipman was murdered for financial gain—<br />

or was she? It will require the usual ensemble of characters to find out the truth, including Scarpetta's<br />

sidekick Pete Marino, who has undergone a drastic change in his life that places him center stage in a<br />

Cambridge investigation that puts everyone at risk.<br />

CRAWFORD, LACY<br />

Working one-on-one with Tiger-mothered, burned-out kids, Anne “the application whisperer” can make<br />

Harvard a reality. Early Decision follows five students over one autumn as Anne helps them craft their<br />

college essays, cram for the SATs, and perfect the Common Application. It seems their entire future is on<br />

money, connections, competition, and parental mania, threatens to crush their independence just as<br />

adulthood begins.<br />

THE EDGE OF NORMAL<br />

NORTON, CARLA<br />

In many ways, Reeve LeClaire looks like a typical twenty-two year old girl. She’s finally landed her own<br />

apartment, she waitresses to pay the bills, and she wishes she wasn’t so nervous around new people.<br />

She thinks of herself as agile, not skittish. As serious, not grim. But Reeve is anything but normal. Ten<br />

years ago, she was kidnapped and held captive. After a lucky escape, she’s spent the last six years trying<br />

to rebuild her life, a recovery thanks in large part to her indispensable therapist Dr. Ezra Lerner. But when<br />

he asks her to help another girl rescued from a similar situation, Reeve realizes she may not simply need<br />

to mentor this young victim—she may be the only one who can protect her from a cunning predator who<br />

is still out there, watching every move.<br />

Papua New Guinea, and finally northern Australia. No longer protected by American military interests,<br />

Australia must repel an invasion alone. In the thick of these political maneuvers, an American family of<br />

missionaries living in the Philippines and a Texan petroleum engineer in Australia must face the fear of<br />

being strangers in a world in flux. Are their relatives back home healthy and safe? Will they ever see them<br />

again?<br />

EXTRAORDINARY<br />

GILMOUR, DAVID<br />

Over the course of one Saturday night, a man and his half-sister meet at her request to spend the<br />

evening preparing for her assisted death. They drink and reminisce fondly, sadly, amusingly about their<br />

lives and especially her children, both of whom have led dramatic and profoundly different lives.<br />

Extraordinary is a gentle consideration of assisted suicide, but it is also a story about siblings—about how<br />

brothers and sisters turn out so differently; about how little, in fact, turns out the way we expect. In the<br />

end, this is a novel about the extraordinary business of being alive, and it may well be David Gilmour’s<br />

very best work of fiction to date.<br />

hasn’t gone well. Marked as traitors and hunted by ruthless government-sanctioned mercenaries using<br />

the most advanced surveillance technologies ever created, Ross and her “Founders’ Keepers” find<br />

themselves cornered and standing alone. but the fight is far from over. The battle lines in this bitter rivalry<br />

are as old as civilization itself: On one side, an unlikely band of ordinary Americans ready to make their<br />

last stand in defense of self-rule, freedom, and liberty—and on the other, an elite cabal of self-styled<br />

tyrants who believe that unlimited power should be wielded only by the chosen few.<br />

sister, Lillie. The telegram from her aunt and uncle was brief, stating only that Lillie had passed away<br />

when Beret comes across a scandal sheet with the details of a brutal murder of a prostitute named "Lillie<br />

Brown" in the brothel where she lived. Upon a closer read, Beret becomes convinced that "Lillie Brown"<br />

was in fact her sister, and her murderer has not been caught. Her investigation takes her from the<br />

an ancient conspiracy against all of humankind. As the clouds gather, Tommy and Dani realize they must<br />

eruption of the battle between angels and demons to save humanity from the supernatural evils that have<br />

been summoned to East Salem.<br />

Campbell Ouiniette at the Calgary Folk Festival, as he leaves a trail of empty liquor bottles, cigarette<br />

industry, and the rest of the world. He reveals his path of destruction in his own transparently selfjustifying,<br />

expulsive, profane words, with digressions into the Edmonton hardcore punk rock scene, the<br />

Yugoslavian Civil War, and other epicentres of chaos.<br />

JETER, K.W.<br />

In 1986 K. W. Jeter coined the term "steampunk," applying it to his first Victorian-era science fiction<br />

alternate-history adventure. At last he has returned with a tale of George Dower, son of the inventor of<br />

Infernal Devices, who has been in self-imposed exile…accumulating debts. The world Dower left when he<br />

went into hiding was significantly simpler than the new, steam-powered Victorian London, a mad whirl of<br />

civilization filled with gadgets and gears in the least expected places. After accepting congratulations for<br />

his late father's grandest invention—a walking, steam-powered lighthouse—Dower is enticed by the<br />

prospect of financial gain into a web of intrigue with ominously mysterious players who have nefarious<br />

plans of which he can only guess. If he can locate and make his father’s Vox Universalis work as it was<br />

intended, his future, he is promised, is assured. But his efforts are confounded by the strange Vicar<br />

Stonebrake, who promises him aid, but is more interested in converting sentient whales to Christianity—<br />

and making money—than in helping George.<br />

FIGURES OF BEAUTY<br />

MACFARLANE, DAVID<br />

A young man travels to Paris in 1968, where a series of unlikely events take him to a tiny village in Italy—<br />

and the one great love of his life. A marble merchant meets a couple on their honeymoon, introducing<br />

them to the sensual beauty of Carrara. An Italian woman arrives in Canada to find the father she never<br />

knew. A terrible accident in a marble quarry changes the course of a young boy’s life and, ultimately, sets<br />

in motion each of these stories, which Macfarlane masterfully shapes into a magnificent whole. Oliver<br />

Hughson falls in love with wild, bohemian Anna over the course of one glorious summer in Italy. Bound by<br />

a sense of responsibility to his adoptive parents back home in Canada, however, he leaves her, an act he<br />

will regret for the rest of his life. Narrated by the daughter he never knew he had, The Figures of Beauty is<br />

a love story of mythic proportions. Through luck, fate and great good fortune, Oliver found the one place<br />

and the one woman he should never have left. This is the story of him trying to find his way back.<br />

Scotland Yard’s new chief inspector Nicholas Drummond is on the first flight to New York when he learns<br />

his colleague, Elaine York, the “minder” of the Crown Jewels for the “Jewel of the Lion” exhibit at the<br />

Metropolitan Museum of Art, was found murdered. Then the centerpiece of the exhibit, the infamous Kohi-Noor<br />

Diamond, is stolen from the Queen Mother’s crown. Drummond, American-born but raised in the<br />

UK, is a dark, dangerous, fast-rising star in the Yard who never backs down. And this case is no<br />

exception. Special Agents Lacey Sherlock and Dillon Savich from Coulter’s bestselling FBI series don’t<br />

hesitate to help Drummond find the cunning international thief known as the Fox. Nonstop action and high<br />

stakes intensify as the chase gets deadly. The Fox will stop at nothing to deliver the Koh-i-Noor to the<br />

man who believes in its deadly prophecy. Nicholas Drummond, along with his partner, FBI Special Agent<br />

Mike Caine, lay it on the line to retrieve the diamond for Queen and country.<br />

FINGAL O'REILLY, IRISH COUNTRY DOCTOR<br />

TAYLOR, PATRICK<br />

Fans of Taylor’s bestselling Irish Country novels know Dr. Fingal Flahertie O’Reilly as the irascible senior<br />

partner of a general practice in the colorful Irish village of Ballybucklebo. Newly married to his once longlost<br />

sweetheart, he’s ready to settle into domestic bliss, but there’s always something requiring his<br />

attention, be it a riding accident, a difficult patient with a worrisome heart condition, a spot of grousehunting,<br />

or even some tricky shenanigans at the local dog races. The everyday complications of village<br />

life are very different from the challenges Fingal faced nearly thirty years earlier, when fresh out of<br />

medical school, the young Dr. O’Reilly accepts a post at the Aungier Street Dispensary, tending to the<br />

impoverished denizens of Dublin’s tenement slums. Yet even as he tries to make a difference, Fingal’s<br />

tireless devotion to his patients may cost him his own true love….<br />

In this sixth installment in the acclaimed Swedish series, the murder of a young ballerina named Sophie,<br />

apparently an arson victim, sets off shrill alarm bells for Detective Inspector Irene Huss, who remembers<br />

the details of an unsolved case from fifteen years earlier, when Irene had only just started in the police<br />

force. The stepfather of the then eight-year-old Sophie has been murdered in a very similar way, and at<br />

the time the girl herself had been under suspicions. The circumstances force Irene and her colleagues to<br />

confront an uncomfortable question: can a child be responsible for the cold-blooded murder of an adult?<br />

Foreign Gods, Inc., tells the story of Ike, a New York-based Nigerian cab driver who sets out to steal the<br />

statue of an ancient war deity from his home village and sell it to a New York gallery. Ike's plan is fueled<br />

demanding financial support. When he turns to gambling, his mounting losses compound his woes. And<br />

so he travels back to Nigeria to steal the statue, where he has to deal with old friends, family, and a<br />

mounting conflict between those in the village who worship the deity, and those who practice Christianity.<br />

A meditation on the dreams, promises and frustrations of the immigrant life in America, Foreign Gods is a<br />

brilliant work of fiction that illuminates our globally interconnected world like no other.<br />

GHOST GONE WILD<br />

HART, CAROLYN<br />

Bailey Ruth loves to return to earth as an emissary from Heaven’s Department of Good Intentions.<br />

Problem is, she’s a bit of a loose cannon as far as ghosts go—forgetting to remain invisible, alarming<br />

earthly creatures—so she’s far from the top of department head Wiggins’s go-to list for assignments.<br />

That’s why she’s surprised when the Heaven-sent Rescue Express drops her off at a frame house on the<br />

outskirts of her old hometown, Adelaide, Oklahoma, where a young man is playing the drums. What kind<br />

of rescuing does he need—drum lessons? But when a window cracks and a rifle barrel is thrust inside,<br />

only Bailey Ruth’s hasty intervention saves Nick Magruder from taking a bullet. When she materializes to<br />

reassure him, she finds she can’t go back to vanishing. What gives? It turns out she’s been tricked by<br />

Nick’s late aunt—Delilah Delahunt Duvall—to come to the young man’s rescue, which means she isn’t<br />

back on earth in service of the department. Wiggins has no idea where she is—and now she may be<br />

trapped in Adelaide forever. Unless she can help Aunt Dee snare the person who wants her nephew<br />

dead…<br />

Earth Liberation Front, known as ELF, is a loosely knit organization comprised of environmental activists<br />

dollars in damage. The FBI ranks them, along with other eco-radicals, as the number one homegrown<br />

terrorist threat. Flynn Moss, Thorn’s newly discovered son, has naively fallen in with an ELF cell in Miami<br />

which has its sights on Turkey Point, the largest nuclear power plant in the state. This ELF group has<br />

concocted a non-violent plan to shut the nuke plant down—nothing more than a huge publicity stunt to<br />

call attention to the dangers of nuclear power. But unbeknownst to some in the group, there are other<br />

members with a far more violent scheme in mind—to cause a radioactive catastrophe rivaling Chernobyl<br />

or Fukushima. With a growing sense of dread about the group’s true intentions, Flynn summons Thorn to<br />

help him escape from Prince Key, the remote island where the ELF group is camped. Unable to refuse<br />

this son he barely knows, Thorn heads off to Prince Key and quickly reaches a realization. He must join<br />

the terrorists and help them complete their mission in order to save his son.<br />

THE GOOD BOY<br />

SCHWEGEL, THERESA<br />

For Officer Pete Murphy, K9 duty is as much a punishment as a promotion. When a shaky arrest reignites<br />

a recent scandal and triggers a multimillion-dollar lawsuit, all eyes are on Pete as the department braces<br />

for another media firestorm. Meanwhile, Pete's eleven-year-old son Joel feels invisible. His parents hardly<br />

notice him—unless they're arguing about his “behavioral problems”—and his older sister, McKenna, has<br />

lately disappeared into the strange and frightening world of teenagerdom. About the only friend Joel has<br />

left is Butchie, his father's furry “partner.” When Joel and Butchie follow McKenna to a neighborhood<br />

bully’s party, illegal activity kicks the dog's police training into overdrive, and soon the duo are on the run,<br />

navigating the streets of Chicago as they try to stay one step ahead of the bad guys—bad guys who may<br />

have a very personal interest in getting some payback on Officer Pete Murphy.<br />

THE GOOD WIFE<br />

PORTER, JANE<br />

Always considered the beauty of the family, the youngest Brennan sister, Sarah, remains deeply in love<br />

with her husband of ten years. Boone Walker, a professional baseball player, travels almost year-round<br />

while Sarah stays home and cares for their two children. Her love for her husband is bottomless—so<br />

much so that her sisters say it will end up hurting her. Living apart most of the time makes life difficult,<br />

especially since Sarah often wonders whether Boone is sharing his bed with other women on the road,<br />

even though he swears he’s been true to her since his infidelity three years ago. While she wants to be<br />

happy and move forward in her life, Sarah constantly fears that Boone will break his promise. Now with<br />

Boone facing yet another career change, tension rises between the two, adding more stress to an already<br />

turbulent marriage. Emotionally exhausted, Sarah can’t cope with yet another storm. Now, she must<br />

either break free from the past and forgive Boone completely, or leave him behind and start anew . . .<br />

THE GREAT AND CALAMITOUS TALE OF JOHN THOMS<br />

THORNTON, IAN<br />

Johan Thoms is poised for greatness. A promising student at the University of Sarajevo, he is young,<br />

brilliant, and in love with the beautiful Lorelei Ribeiro. He can outwit chess masters, quote the Kama<br />

Sutra, and converse with dukes and drunkards alike. But he cannot drive a car in reverse. And as with so<br />

much in the life of Johan Thoms, this seemingly insignificant detail will prove to be much more than it<br />

appears. On the morning of June 28, 1914, Johan takes his place as the chauffeur to Franz Ferdinand<br />

and the Royal entourage, and with one wrong turn, he forever alters the course of history.<br />

A HAND FOR A HAND<br />

MUIR, T. FRANK<br />

Murder. It’s the only word in a note clutched by the dismembered hand found on the lush green of a golf<br />

course in St. Andrews, Scotland. When DCI Andy Gilchrist learns the note is addressed to him, he<br />

realizes the thing he feared most has come to pass: a killer is deliberately targeting him. Though Gilchrist<br />

is no new hand at solving murders, this time he is overwhelmed by the flood of seemingly unconnected<br />

crises—the note clutched in the hand, his son’s missing girlfriend, his ex-wife’s failing health, and his<br />

boss’s decision to pair Gilchrist up with a scumbag detective from his past, who in turn is hiding evidence.<br />

Worse, the hand turns out to be just the beginning, and soon he’s faced with relentless parade of body<br />

parts.<br />

HAPPY HOUR IN HELL<br />

WILLIAMS, TAD<br />

My name’s Bobby Dollar, sometimes known as Doloriel, and of course, Hell isn’t a great place for<br />

someone like me—I’m an angel. They don’t like my kind down there, not even the slightly fallen variety.<br />

But they have my girlfriend, who happens to be a beautiful demon named Casi¬mira, Countess of Cold<br />

Hands. Why does an angel have a demon girlfriend? Well, certainly not because it helps my career. She’s<br />

being held hostage by one of the nasti¬est, most powerful demons in all of the nether¬world—Eligor,<br />

Grand Duke of Hell. He already hates me, and he’d like nothing better than to get his hands on me and<br />

rip my immortal soul right out of my borrowed but oh-so-mortal body. But wait, it gets better! Not only do I<br />

have to sneak into Hell, make my way across thousands of miles of terror and suffering to reach Pandemonium,<br />

capital of the fiery depths, but then I have to steal Caz right out from under Eligor’s burning<br />

eyes and smuggle her out again, past demon soldiers, hellhounds, and all the murder¬ous creatures<br />

imprisoned there for eternity. And even if I somehow manage to escape Hell, I’m also being stalked by an<br />

undead psychopath named Smyler who’s been following me for weeks. Oh, and did I mention that he<br />

can’t be killed? So if I somehow survive Hell, elude the Grand Duke and all his hideous minions and make<br />

it back to the real world, I’ll still be the most hunted soul in Creation. But at least I’ll have Caz. Gotta have<br />

something to look forward to, right?<br />

Hannah and Isaac Levi, Venetians in exile, have set up a new life for themselves in Constantinople. Isaac<br />

runs a newly established business in the growing silk trade, while Hannah, the best midwife in all of<br />

Constantinople, plies her trade within the opulent palace of Sultan Murat III, tending to the thousand<br />

women of his lively and infamous harem. But one night, when Hannah is unexpectedly summoned to the<br />

sultan's harem. The sultan favours her as his next conquest and wants her to produce his heir, but the girl<br />

just wants to return to her home and the only life she has ever known. What will Hannah do? Will she risk<br />

her life and livelihood to protect this young girl, or will she retain her high esteem in the eye of the sultan?<br />

was shot by a ghost car. While Hawthorn battles with fatigue and strange dreams, the crime and the<br />

HELLGOING<br />

COADY, LYNN<br />

With astonishing range and depth, Scotiabank Giller Prize finalist Lynn Coady gives us eight<br />

unforgettable new stories, each one of them grabbing our attention from the first line and resonating long<br />

after the last. A young nun charged with talking an anorexic out of her religious fanaticism toys with the<br />

thin distance between practicality and blasphemy. A strange bond between a teacher and a schoolgirl<br />

takes on ever deeper, and stranger, shapes as the years progress. A bride-to-be with a penchant for<br />

nocturnal bondage can’t seem to stop bashing herself up in the light of day. Equally adept at capturing the<br />

foibles and obsessions of men and of women, compassionate in her humour yet never missing an<br />

opportunity to make her characters squirm, fascinated as much by faithlessness as by faith, Lynn Coady<br />

is quite possibly the writer who best captures what it is to be human at this particular moment in our<br />

history.<br />

HILD<br />

GRIFFITH, NICOLA<br />

Hild is born into a world in transition. In seventh-century Britain, small kingdoms are merging, usually<br />

violently. A new religion is coming ashore; the old gods’ priests are worrying. Edwin of Northumbria plots<br />

to become overking of the Angles, ruthlessly using every tool at his disposal: blood, bribery, belief. Hild is<br />

the king’s youngest niece. She has the powerful curiosity of a bright child, a will of adamant, and a way of<br />

seeing the world—of studying nature, of matching cause with effect, of observing human nature and<br />

predicting what will happen next—that can seem uncanny, even supernatural, to those around her. She<br />

establishes herself as the king’s seer. And she is indispensable—until she should ever lead the king<br />

astray. The stakes are life and death: for Hild, her family, her loved ones, and the increasing numbers who<br />

seek the protection of the strange girl who can read the world and see the future. Hild is a young woman<br />

at the heart of the violence, subtlety, and mysticism of the early medieval age—all of it brilliantly and<br />

accurately evoked by Nicola Griffith’s luminous prose. Recalling such feats of historical fiction as Hilary<br />

Mantel’s Wolf Hall and Sigrid Undset’s Kristin Lavransdatter, Hild brings a beautiful, brutal world—and<br />

one of its most fascinating, pivotal figures, the girl who would become St. Hilda of Whitby—to vivid,<br />

absorbing life.<br />

FORNA, AMINATTA<br />

Aminatta Forna has established herself as one of our most perceptive and uncompromising chroniclers of<br />

war and the way it reverberates, sometimes imperceptibly, in the daily lives of those touched by it. With<br />

The Hired Man, she has delivered a tale of a Croatian village after the War of Independence, and a family<br />

of newcomers who expose its secrets. Duro is off on a morning’s hunt when he sees something one<br />

rarely does in Gost: a strange car. Later that day, he overhears its occupants, a British woman, Laura,<br />

and her two children, who have taken up residence in a house Duro knows well. He offers his assistance<br />

getting their water working again, and soon he is at the house every day, helping get it ready as their<br />

summer cottage, and serving as Laura’s trusted confidant. But the other residents of Gost are not as<br />

pleased to have the interlopers, and as Duro and Laura’s daughter Grace uncover and begin to restore a<br />

mosaic in the front that has been plastered over, Duro must be increasingly creative to shield the family<br />

from the town’s hostility, and his own past with the house’s former occupants. As the inhabitants of Gost<br />

go about their days, working, striving to better themselves and their town, and arguing, the town’s volatile<br />

truths whisper ever louder.<br />

PENNY, LOUISE<br />

Christmas is approaching, and in Québec it’s a time of dazzling snowfalls, bright lights, and gatherings<br />

with friends in front of blazing hearths. But shadows are falling on the usually festive season for Chief<br />

Inspector Armand Gamache. Most of his best agents have left the Homicide Department, his old friend<br />

When Gamache receives a message from Myrna Landers that a longtime friend has failed to arrive for<br />

Christmas in the village of Three Pines, he welcomes the chance to get away from the city. Mystified by<br />

Myrna's reluctance to reveal her friend's name, Gamache soon discovers the woman was once one of the<br />

most famous people not just in North America, but in the world, and now goes unrecognized by virtually<br />

everyone except the mad, brilliant poet Ruth Zardo.As events come to a head, Gamache is drawn ever<br />

Myrna’s friend but also seeking a safe place for himself and his still-loyal colleagues. Is there peace to be<br />

found even in Three Pines, and at what cost to Gamache and the people he holds dear?<br />

HOW TO BE A GOOD WIFE<br />

CHAPMAN, EMMA<br />

Marta and Hector have been married for a long time. Through the good and bad; through raising a son<br />

and sending him off to life after university. So long, in fact, that Marta finds it difficult to remember her life<br />

before Hector. He has always taken care of her, and she has always done everything she can to be a<br />

good wife—as advised by a dog-eared manual given to her by Hector’s aloof mother on their wedding<br />

day. But now, something is changing. Small things seem off. A flash of movement in the corner of her eye,<br />

elapsed moments that she can’t recall. Visions of a blonde girl in the darkness that only Marta can see.<br />

Perhaps she is starting to remember—or perhaps her mind is playing tricks on her. As Marta’s visions<br />

persist and her reality grows more disjointed, it’s unclear if the danger lies in the world around her, or in<br />

Marta herself. The girl is growing more real every day, and she wants something.<br />

left the force disgraced, under investigation by Internal Affairs, and worst of all, considered to be volatile<br />

Caroline knows she only has a few moments left to persuade the hot-headed, reckless (and extremely<br />

handsome) Reed to let the hostages go and turn himself in before anyone gets hurt. When the SWAT<br />

team runs out of patience and launches an attack, Reed takes Caroline hostage and manages to escape<br />

with her in the chaos. During the escape, Reed reveals to Caroline that he’s uncovered corruption at the<br />

highest levels of the police department and New Orleans city government, and those involved will stop at<br />

nothing to keep him from exposing what he knows…including murder.<br />

husband is still very much alive. . . . Cecilia Fitzpatrick has achieved it all—she’s an incredibly successful<br />

businesswoman, a pillar of her small community, and a devoted wife and mother. Her life is as orderly and<br />

spotless as her home. But that letter is about to change everything, and not just for her.<br />

IDENTICAL<br />

TUROW, SCOTT<br />

Identical, based loosely on the myth of Castor and Pollux, is the story of identical twins Paul and Cass<br />

Giannis and the complex relationships between their family and their former neighbors, the Kronons. The<br />

novel focuses principally on events in 2008, when Paul is a candidate for Mayor of Kindle County, and<br />

Cass is released from the penitentiary, 25 years after pleading guilty to the murder of his girlfriend, Athena<br />

Kronon. The plot centers on the re-investigation of Athena's murder, carried out together by Evon Miller,<br />

an ex-FBI agent who is the head of security for the Kronon family business ZP, and private investigator<br />

Tim Brodie, 81, a former homicide detective. The complex web of murder, sex, and betrayal-as only Scott<br />

Turow could weave-dramatically unfolds, and the chilling truth is revealed: people will believe what they<br />

want to believe.<br />

In Falling Snow opens as Iris Crane, an elderly Australian widow struggling to keep up with daily life,<br />

receives a surprise invitation in the mail to a reunion at the ancient abbey of Royaumont, the site of a field<br />

into the hospital, and of the dear friends she made at Royaumont who would change her family’s life<br />

IN PRAISE OF HATRED<br />

KHALIFA, KHALED<br />

In 1980s Syria, our young narrator is living a secluded life behind the veil in the vast and perfumed house<br />

of her grandparents in Aleppo. Her three aunts, Maryam the pious one; Safaa, the liberal; and the freespirited<br />

Marwa, bring her up with the aid of their ever-devoted blind servant. Soon the high walls of the<br />

family home are unable to protect her from the social and political changes outside. Witnessing the<br />

crackdowns of the ruling dictatorship against Muslims, she is filled with hatred for her oppressors, and<br />

becomes increasingly fundamentalist. In the footsteps of her beloved uncle Bakr, she takes on the party,<br />

launching herself into a fight for her religion, her country, and ultimately, her own future. On a backdrop of<br />

real-life events that occurred during the Syrian regime's ruthless suppression of the Muslim Brotherhood<br />

in the 1980s, In Praise of Hatred is a stirring, sensual story. Its elegant use of traditional, layered<br />

storytelling is a powerful echo of the modern-day tragedy that is now taking place in the Middle East.<br />

UNGER, LISA<br />

Lana Granger lives a life of lies. She has told so many lies about where she comes from and who she is<br />

that the truth is like a cloudy nightmare she can’t quite recall. About to graduate from college and with her<br />

trust fund almost tapped out, she takes a job babysitting a troubled boy named Luke. Expelled from<br />

schools all over the country, the manipulative young Luke is accustomed to controlling the people in his<br />

life. But, in Lana, he may have met his match. Or has Lana met hers? When Lana’s closest friend, Beck,<br />

mysteriously disappears, Lana resumes her lying ways—to friends, to the police, to herself. The police<br />

have a lot of questions for Lana when the story about her whereabouts the night Beck disappeared<br />

doesn’t jibe with eyewitness accounts. Lana will do anything to hide the truth, but it might not be enough<br />

to keep her ominous secrets buried: someone else knows about Lana’s lies. And he’s dying to tell.<br />

THE INSISTENT GARDEN<br />

CHARD, ROSIE<br />

Edith Stokers father is building a wall in their backyard. A very, very high wall -- a brick bulwark in his<br />

obsessive war against their hated neighbour Edward Black. It is 1969, and far away, preparations are<br />

being made for man to walk upon the moon. Meanwhile, in the Stokers shabby home in the East<br />

Midlands, Edith remains a virtual prisoner, with occasional visits from her grotesque and demanding Aunt<br />

Vivian serving as the only break in the routine. But when shy, sheltered Edith begins to quietly cultivate a<br />

garden in the shadow of her fathers wall, she sets in motion events that might gain her<br />

independence...and bring her face to face with the mysterious Edward Black. Rosie Chards follow-up to<br />

her award-winning debut Seal Intestine Raincoat unfolds like a grown-up take on The Secret Garden, an<br />

engrossing, often mordantly funny portrait of a young woman who miraculously finds her own pathway to<br />

freedom within the most stifling of environs.<br />

IT HAPPENS IN THE DARK<br />

O'CONNELL, CAROL<br />

The reviews called it “A Play to Die For” after the woman was found dead in the front row. It didn’t seem<br />

so funny the next night, when another body was found—this time the playwright’s, his throat slashed.<br />

Detective Kathy Mallory takes over, but no matter what she asks, no one seems to be giving her a straight<br />

answer. The only person—if “person” is the right word—who seems to be clear is the ghostwriter. Every<br />

night, an unseen backstage hand chalks up line changes and messages on a blackboard. And the<br />

ghostwriter is now writing Mallory into the play itself, a play about a long-ago massacre that may not be at<br />

all fictional. “MALLORY,” the blackboard reads. “TONIGHT’S THE NIGHT. NOTHING PERSONAL.”<br />

JUST ONE EVIL ACT<br />

GEORGE, ELIZABETH<br />

Barbara is at a loss: The daughter of her friend Taymullah Azhar has been taken by her mother, and<br />

Barbara can’t really help—Azhar had never married Angelina, and his name isn’t on Hadiyyah’s, their<br />

daughter’s, birth certificate. He has no legal claim. Azhar and Barbara hire a private detective, but the trail<br />

goes cold. Azhar is just beginning to accept his soul-crushing loss when Angelina reappears with<br />

shocking news: Hadiyyah is missing, kidnapped from an Italian marketplace. The Italian police are<br />

investigating, and the Yard won’t get involved, until Barbara takes matters into her own hands — at the<br />

risk of her own career. As both Barbara and her partner, Thomas Lynley, soon discover, the case is more<br />

complex than a kidnapping, revealing secrets that could have effects outside of the investigation.<br />

KICKING THE SKY<br />

DE SA, ANTHONY<br />

On a steamy summer day in 1977, Emanuel Jaques was shining shoes in downtown Toronto. Surrounded<br />

by the strip clubs, bars and body rub parlors of Yonge Street, Emanuel was lured away from his friends by<br />

a man who promised some easy money. Four days later the boy's body was discovered. He had been<br />

brutally raped and murdered, and Toronto the Good would never be the same. The murder of the<br />

Shoeshine Boy had particularly tragic resonance for the city's Portuguese community. The loss of one of<br />

their own symbolized for many how far they were from realizing their immigrant dreams. Kicking the Sky<br />

is told from the perspective of one of these children, Antonio Rebelo, a character first introduced in<br />

Barnacle Love. Twelve-year-old Antonio prizes his life of freedom and adventure. He and his best friends,<br />

Manny and Ricky, spend their days on their bikes exploring the labyrinth of laneways that link their<br />

Portuguese neighborhood to the rest of the city. But as the details of Emanuel's death expose Toronto's<br />

seedier underbelly, the boys are pulled into an adult world of danger and cruelty, secrets and lies much<br />

closer to home.<br />

THE KILL LIST<br />

FORSYTH, FREDERICK<br />

In Virginia, there is an agency bearing the bland name of Technical Operations Support Activity, or TOSA.<br />

Its one mission is to track, find, and kill those so dangerous to the United States that they are on a short<br />

document known as the Kill List. TOSA actually exists. So does the Kill List. Added to it is a new name: a<br />

terrorist of frightening effectiveness called the Preacher, who radicalizes young Muslims abroad to carry<br />

out assassinations. Unfortunately for him, one of the kills is a retired Marine general, whose son is<br />

TOSA’s top hunter of men. He has spent the last six years at his job. He knows nothing about his target’s<br />

name, face, or location. He realizes his search will take him to places where few could survive. But the<br />

Preacher has made it personal now. The hunt is on.<br />

The whole town of Lander has turned out for the big parade celebrating the start of the new rodeo<br />

impersonator of General George Armstrong Custer—and a troop of men acting as the ill-fated Seventh<br />

Cavalry. The problem is they are being followed by a group of Arapaho warriors from the Wind River<br />

Reservation, who proceed to encircle Garrett and his men in a “dare ride” just to remind them exactly who<br />

won the Battle of the Little Bighorn. But when the ride is over, history seems to have repeated itself:<br />

Garrett is dead in the street with a bullet hole in his chest. No one is sure what happened, but public<br />

sentiment quickly turns against the Arapaho—and the prime suspect is Colin Morningside, a descendant<br />

of Crazy Horse. When a local attorney connected to Morningside disappears, the accusations only grow<br />

stronger. Father John O’Malley knows in his heart the Arapaho are not guilty. And Vicky Holden finds<br />

herself professionally and personally compromised from getting involved. But what begins as a murder<br />

soon reveals itself as a conspiracy that neither Father John nor Vicky could have foreseen. And someone<br />

wants to ensure that the truth they discover will die with them…<br />

John Sevier had not taken much interest in the American Revolution. But when an arrogant British officer<br />

arrogant officer is Patrick Ferguson of the British Army—who is both charmingly antagonistic and<br />

surprisingly endearing. Inventor of the Ferguson rifle, and the devoted lover to his mistress, Virginia Sal,<br />

Patrick becomes a delightful anti-hero under McCrumb’s watchful eye. King’s Mountain is a saga of the<br />

Carolina Overmountain Men—the militia organized by Sevier and their victory in 1780 against the Tories<br />

in a battle that Thomas Jefferson later called, "The turning point of the American Revolution."<br />

THE LAST TOMORROW<br />

JAHN, RYAN D.<br />

April 1952. Los Angeles. After thirteen-year-old Sandy Duncan shoots his stepfather in the temple and<br />

carves a symbol into the corpse's forehead in imitation of a comic book, district attorney Seymour Markley<br />

launches a grand jury investigation into the murder and its causes, an investigation that could implicate<br />

east coast crime boss James Manning and end his thirty-year career. Also potentially implicated: the<br />

comic book's creator, Eugene Dahl, who now spends his mornings working as a milkman and his<br />

evenings warming bar stools. Threatening notes begin appearing nailed to his front door, notes that draw<br />

him to a downtown hotel where one of the district attorney's witnesses, one of the men who could bring<br />

down James Manning, is being held. There, Eugene finds the witness murdered, as well as the police<br />

officer charged with protecting him; and he finds himself framed for those murders. He's forced to go on<br />

the run, and, in order to clear his name, to devise a plan that involves deeds far worse than anything he's<br />

been framed for. And he must commit those deeds with the police right behind him.<br />

LET HIM GO<br />

WATSON, LARRY<br />

Dalton, North Dakota. It’s September 1951: years since George and Margaret Blackledge lost their son<br />

James when he was thrown from a horse; months since his widow Lorna took off with their only grandson<br />

and married Donnie Weboy. Margaret is steadfast, resolved to find and retrieve her grandson Jimmy —<br />

the one person in this world keeping James’s memory alive — while George, a retired sheriff, is none too<br />

eager to stir up trouble. Unable to sway his wife from her mission, George takes to the road with Margaret<br />

by his side, traveling through the Dakota badlands to Gladstone, Montana. When Margaret tries to<br />

convince Lorna to return home to North Dakota and bring little Jimmy with her, the Blackledges find<br />

themselves entangled with the entire Weboy clan, who are determined not to give up the boy without a<br />

fight. From the author who brought us Montana 1948, Let Him Go is pitch-perfect, gutsy, and unwavering.<br />

Larry Watson is at his storytelling finest in this unforgettable return to the American West.<br />

LIGHT IN A DARK HOUSE<br />

WAGNER, JAN COSTIN<br />

Finnish detective Kimmo Joentaa is called to the local hospital in which his young wife died several years<br />

before. An unidentified woman in a coma has been murdered by someone who wept over the body, their<br />

tears staining the sheets around her. The death marks the start of a series of killings, with the unknown<br />

patient at their centre. As autumn turns to winter, and Christmas fast approaches, Kimmo's attempts to<br />

unravel the case and identify the first victim are complicated by the disappearance of his sometime<br />

girlfriend, who has vanished after an awkward encounter at a party thrown by the head of the police force,<br />

and by a colleague's spiral into the depths of a gambling addiction.<br />

THOMAS, AUDREY<br />

In this historical novel based on real events, Letitia Landon and George Maclean marry in June 1838 and<br />

sail off to West Africa. Eight weeks later she is dead from what appears to be an overdose of prussic acid.<br />

Her doctor and a chemist swear they never prescribed or made up such a solution. The mystery is never<br />

resolved. The ship that brought Letitias cheerful letters to London was the same one that announced her<br />

death. All sorts of rumours fly around. Complicating matters is the presence of Thomas Birch Freeman, a<br />

Wesleyan missionary. A letter he writes after Letitias demise causes trouble for George Maclean. Brodie<br />

Cruickshank, in charge of the fort at Anamaboe, a few miles away, also seems to have fallen in love with<br />

Letitia. But what really happened to Letitia in this exotic and dangerous place so far away from her<br />

home?<br />

LOLA BENSKY<br />

BRETT, LILY<br />

Lola Bensky is a nineteen-year-old rock journalist who irons her hair straight and asks a lot of questions.<br />

A high-school dropout, she's not sure how she got the job – but she's been sent by her Australian<br />

newspaper right to the heart of the London music scene at the most exciting time in music history: 1967.<br />

Lola spends her days planning diets and interviewing rock stars. In London, Mick Jagger makes her a cup<br />

of tea, Jimi Hendrix (possibly) propositions her and Cher borrows her false eyelashes. At the Monterey<br />

International Pop Festival, Lola props up Brian Jones and talks to Janis Joplin about sex. In Los Angeles,<br />

she discusses being overweight with Mama Cass and tries to pluck up the courage to ask Cher to return<br />

those false eyelashes. Lola has an irrepressible curiosity, but she begins to wonder whether the<br />

questions she asks these extraordinary young musicians are really a substitute for questions about her<br />

parents' calamitous past that can't be asked or answered. As Lola moves on through marriage,<br />

motherhood, psychoanalysis and a close relationship with an unexpected pair of detectives, she<br />

discovers the question of what it means to be human is the hardest one for anyone—including herself—to<br />

answer.<br />

LOST LUGGAGE<br />

PUNTI, JORDI<br />

Christof, Christophe, Christopher, and Cristòfol are four brothers—sons of the same father and four very<br />

different mothers, yet none of them knows about the existence of the others. They live in Frankfurt, Paris,<br />

London, and Barcelona and they unwittingly share the fact that their father, Gabriel Delacruz—a truck<br />

driver—abandoned them when they were little and they never heard from him again. Then one day,<br />

Cristòfol is contacted by the police: his father is officially a missing person. This fact leads him to discover<br />

that he has three half-brothers, and the four young men come together for the first time. Two decades<br />

have passed since their father last saw any of them. They barely remember what he was like, but they<br />

decide to look for him to resolve their doubts. Why did he abandon them? Why do all four have the same<br />

name? Did he intend for them to meet? Divided by geography yet united by blood, the “Cristobales” set<br />

out on a quest that is at once painful, hilarious, and extraordinary. They discover a man who during thirty<br />

years of driving was able to escape the darkness of Franco’s Spain and to explore a luminous Europe, a<br />

journey that, with the birth of his sons, both opened and broke his heart.<br />

THE LOWLAND<br />

LAHIRI, JHUMPA<br />

Growing up in Calcutta, born just fifteen months apart, Subhash and Udayan Mitra are inseparable<br />

brothers, one often mistaken for the other. But they are also opposites, with gravely different futures<br />

ahead of them. It is the 1960s, and Udayan--charismatic and impulsive--finds himself drawn to the<br />

Naxalite movement, a rebellion waged to eradicate inequity and poverty: he will give everything, risk all,<br />

for what he believes. Subhash, the dutiful son, does not share his brother's political passion; he leaves<br />

home to pursue a life of scientific research in a quiet, coastal corner of America. But when Subhash<br />

learns what happened to his brother in the lowland outside their family's home, he comes back to India,<br />

hoping to pick up the pieces of a shattered family, and to heal the wounds Udayan left behind--including<br />

those seared in the heart of his brother's wife.<br />

After her two elder sisters become the scandals of Florence, Lucianna Pietro d’Angelo is in the difficult<br />

Lucianna is content with comfortable widowhood—until Robert Minton, Earl of Lisle, visits her bookshop.<br />

d’Angelos cannot deny the spark of attraction between their daughter and the earl, so they scheme to<br />

of which she never dreamed and rising in London society all the way to court of the new Tudor king.<br />

THE LUDWIG CONSPIRACY<br />

POTZSCH, OLIVER<br />

In 1886, Ludwig II, the fairytale king of Bavaria, was deposed after being declared insane by doctors who<br />

had never met him. He died mysteriously soon thereafter, his eccentric and beautiful castles his only<br />

legacy. When an encoded diary by one of Ludwig’s confidants falls into the hands of rare book dealer<br />

Steven Lukas, he soon realizes that the diary may bring him more misery than money. Others want the<br />

diary as well—and they will kill to get it. Believing the diary to contain the secret truth behind Ludwig’s<br />

death, Steven and the detective Sara Lengfeld go on the run, investigating each of Ludwig’s three famous<br />

castles for clues. Just what in the diary could be so explosive that Ludwig's deranged modern-day<br />

followers will do whatever it takes to keep it hidden?<br />

of twelve local men who have met in secret to investigate what links three crimes that occurred on a<br />

has vanished. An enormous fortune in pure gold has been discovered in the home of a luckless drunk. A<br />

prostitute is found unconscious on a deserted road. But nothing is quite as it seems. As the men share<br />

MADDADDAM<br />

ATWOOD, MARGARET<br />

Months after the Waterless Flood pandemic has wiped out most of humanity, Toby and Ren have rescued<br />

their friend Amanda from the vicious Painballers. They return to the MaddAddamite cob house, which is<br />

being fortified against man and giant Pigoon alike. Accompanying them are the Crakers, the gentle,<br />

quasi-human species engineered by the brilliant but deceased Crake. While their reluctant prophet,<br />

Jimmy -- Crake's one-time friend -- recovers from a debilitating fever, it's left to Toby to narrate the Craker<br />

theology, with Crake as Creator. She must also deal with cultural misunderstandings, terrible coffee, and<br />

her jealousy over her lover, Zeb. Meanwhile, Zeb searches for Adam One, founder of the God's<br />

Gardeners, the pacifist green religion from which Zeb broke years ago to lead the MaddAddamites in<br />

active resistance against the destructive CorpSeCorps. Now, under threat of an imminent Painballer<br />

attack, the MaddAddamites must fight back with the aid of their newfound allies, some of whom have four<br />

trotters. At the centre, is the extraordinary story of Zeb's past, which involves a lost brother, a hidden<br />

murder, a bear, and a bizarre act of revenge. Combining adventure, humour, romance, superb<br />

storytelling, and an imagination that is at once dazzlingly inventive and grounded in a recognizable world,<br />

MaddAddam is vintage Margaret Atwood, and a moving and dramatic conclusion to her internationally<br />

celebrated dystopian trilogy.<br />

THE MAN IN THE EMPTY SUIT<br />

FERRELL, SEAN<br />

Say you're a time traveler and you've already toured the entirety of human history. After a while, the<br />

outside world might lose a little of its luster. That's why this time traveler celebrates his birthday partying<br />

with himself. Every year, he travels to an abandoned hotel in New York City in 2071, the hundredth<br />

anniversary of his birth, and drinks twelve-year-old Scotch (lots of it) with all the other versions of who he<br />

has been and who he will be. Sure, the party is the same year after year, but at least it's one party where<br />

he can really, well, be himself. The year he turns 39, though, the party takes a stressful turn for the worse.<br />

Before he even makes it into the grand ballroom for a drink he encounters the body of his forty-year-old<br />

self, dead of a gunshot wound to the head. As the older versions of himself at the party point out, the<br />

onus is on him to figure out what went wrong--he has one year to stop himself from being murdered, or<br />

they're all goners. As he follows clues that he may or may not have willingly left for himself, he discovers<br />

rampant paranoia and suspicion among his younger selves, and a frightening conspiracy among the<br />

Elders. Most complicated of all is a haunting woman possibly named Lily who turns up at the party this<br />

year, the first person besides himself he's ever seen at the party. For the first time, he has something to<br />

lose. Here's hoping he can save some version of his own life.<br />

A MAN OF HIS OWN<br />

WILSON, SUSAN<br />

Rick Stanton was once a promising professional baseball player with a bright future ahead of him. World<br />

War II changed everything. Rick returns home with his body permanently broken and his dreams<br />

shattered. But it was not just body and spirit he sacrificed for the war. He and his devoted wife Francesca<br />

volunteered their beloved dog Pax for the Army’s K-9 Corp, not knowing if they’d ever see him again.<br />

Their adored pet is dutifully (if reluctantly) returned by Keller Nicholson, the soldier who fought the war<br />

with Pax by his side. Where Rick and Pax shared a joyful companionship in those halcyon pre-war years,<br />

Keller and Pax have the kind of profound bond that can only be forged in the trenches of war. Keller, who<br />

can’t bear to part ways with Pax, hopes the Stantons will let him adopt the dog; instead, they offer Keller a<br />

job as Rick’s live-in aide. An unlikely family is formed, with steadfast Pax at the center. As they try to build<br />

a new life out of the ashes, Keller and Francesca find themselves drawn to one another, and struggle to<br />

keep their attraction at bay. Rick, fully aware that he can no longer give Francesca what she needs and<br />

wants, is quietly planning a way out. All three of them need healing. All three of them are lost. Pax, with<br />

his unconditional love and unwavering loyalty, may be the only one who can guide them home.<br />

MASKS<br />

BLAKE, E.C.<br />

Masks, the first novel in a mesmerizing new fantasy series, draws readers into a world in which<br />

cataclysmic events have left the Autarchy of Aygrima—the one land blessed with magical resources—cut<br />

off from its former trading partners across the waters, not knowing if any of those distant peoples still live.<br />

Yet under the rule of the Autarch, Aygrima survives. And thanks to the creation of the Masks and the<br />

vigilance of the Autarch’s Watchers, no one can threaten the security of the empire. In Aygrima, magic is a<br />

Gift possessed from birth by a very small percentage of the population, with the Autarch himself the most<br />

powerful magic worker of all. Only the long-vanquished Lady of Pain and Fire had been able to challenge<br />

his rule. At the age of fifteen, citizens are recognized as adults and must don the spell-infused Masks—<br />

which denote both status and profession—whenever they are in public. To maintain the secure rule of the<br />

kingdom, the Masks are magically crafted to reveal any treasonous thoughts or actions. And once such<br />

betrayals are exposed, the Watchers are there to enforce the law. Mara Holdfast, daughter of the<br />

Autarch’s Master Maskmaker, is fast approaching her fifteenth birthday and her all-important Masking<br />

ceremony. Her father himself has been working behind closed doors to create Mara’s Mask. Once the<br />

ceremony is done, she will take her place as an adult, and Gifted with the same magical abilities as her<br />

father, she will also claim her rightful place as his apprentice. But on the day of her Masking something<br />

goes horribly wrong, and instead of celebrating, Mara is torn away from her parents, imprisoned, and<br />

consigned to a wagon bound for the mines. Is it because she didn’t turn the unMasked boy she<br />

discovered over to the Night Watchers? Or is it because she’s lied about her Gift, claiming she can only<br />

see one color of magic, when in truth she can see them all, just as she could when she was a young<br />

child? Whatever the reason, her Mask has labeled her a traitor and now she has lost everything, doomed<br />

to slavery in the mines until she dies. And not even her Gift can show Mara the future that awaits her—a<br />

future that may see her freed to aid a rebel cause, forced to become a puppet of the Autarch, or<br />

transformed into a force as dangerous to her world as the legendary Lady of Pain and Fire.<br />

MINISTER WITHOUT PORTFOLIO<br />

WINTER, MICHAEL<br />

Henry Hayward is a drowning man. With a soured long-term romance finally at an end, no family, and no<br />

refuge to be had in work, his days are progressively spent in the solace of alcohol. In a quest to<br />

simultaneously recover from unrequited love and to find meaning in what is becoming an increasingly<br />

emotionally arid life, Henry travels to Afghanistan as an army-affiliated contractor. Henry becomes<br />

embedded in the regiment with which his friends and fellow Newfoundlanders are serving. In his efforts to<br />

adapt to a radically different environment, Henry doesn’t have time to think about his fixation on Nora or<br />

the fragments of his old life. But everything changes during a tragic roadside incursion. And Henry, who<br />

survives, knows in his heart that he is responsible. Upon his return home, now tormented by guilt, Henry<br />

begins to feel even more rootless than before until the question of his deceased friend’s old family<br />

summer home arises. Matters are complicated by the grief of Martha, his deceased friend’s long-term<br />

girlfriend, with whom Henry once had an affair. In an unconventional twist of events, Henry attempts to<br />

bring meaning back into his life and make posthumous amends by planning to buy and repair the house.<br />

But he hasn’t factored family history into the picture—and Martha has a revelation of her own, which may<br />

change everything.<br />

Scotland, 1830. Lady Kiera Darby is no stranger to intrigue—in fact, it seems to follow wherever she<br />

goes. After her foray into murder investigation, Kiera must journey to Edinburgh with her family so that her<br />

pregnant sister can be close to proper medical care. But the city is full of many things Kiera isn’t quite<br />

ready to face: the society ladies keen on judging her, her fellow investigator—and romantic<br />

entanglement—Sebastian Gage, and ultimately, another deadly mystery. Kiera’s old friend Michael<br />

Dalmay is about to be married, but the arrival of his older brother—and Kiera’s childhood art tutor—<br />

William, has thrown everything into chaos. For ten years Will has been missing, committed to an insane<br />

asylum by his own father. Kiera is sympathetic to her mentor’s plight, especially when rumors swirl about<br />

a local girl gone missing. Now Kiera must once again employ her knowledge of the macabre and join<br />

forces with Gage in order to prove the innocence of a beloved family friend—and save the marriage of<br />

another…<br />

THE MOUNTAIN OF LIGHT<br />

SUNDARESAN, INDU<br />

By the time Queen Victoria slipped the Mountain of Light diamond on her wrist, claiming it for England,<br />

the gem had traveled around the world, changing hands over the centuries from one ruler to another in<br />

Persia, Afghanistan, and India. The fascinating story of this 105-carat diamond opens in 1830, when the<br />

Indian Maharaja and founder of the Sikh empire Ranjit Singh takes possession of the massive jewel that<br />

has been passed from man to man, king to king, and emperor to emperor, through bloodshed and<br />

destruction, since the 1200s. But India in the nineteenth century is a very different place. Now the British<br />

Empire has claimed territories all across the country and the colonization of India takes root. When Ranjit<br />

Singh dies, four of his sons are slaughtered in wars with the British, and the diamond is left to Prince<br />

Dalip Singh, a six-year-old child. The British governor-general orders that the Mountain of Light be<br />

secreted out of India in 1850, and the teenage-king Dalip Singh follows the diamond to London to officially<br />

present it to the queen as a spoil of the Sikh War. He is feted and petted by the British monarchy for a<br />

long while—until he realizes that all that Britain gives him cannot make up for the loss of his country and<br />

its celebrated diamond.<br />

task for a woman—especially one with two children and a philandering portrait painter as her husband. As<br />

Frances tries to sell her work, she finds that editors are only interested in writing similar to that of the new<br />

renegade literary sensation Edgar Allan Poe, whose poem, “The Raven” has struck a public nerve. She<br />

meets the handsome and mysterious Poe at a literary party, and the two have an immediate connection.<br />

Poe wants Frances to meet with his wife since she claims to be an admirer of her poems, and Frances is<br />

curious to see the woman whom Edgar married. As Frances spends more and more time with the<br />

intriguing couple, her intense attraction for Edgar brings her into dangerous territory. And Mrs. Poe, who<br />

acts like an innocent child, is actually more manipulative and threatening than she appears. As Frances<br />

and Edgar’s passionate affair escalates, Frances must decide whether she can walk away before it’s too<br />

than with seeing to his own defense. Now a monster straight from the pages of Russian folklore is coming<br />

NIGHT FILM<br />

PESSL, MARISHA<br />

On a damp October night, the body of young, beautiful Ashley Cordova is found in an abandoned<br />

warehouse in lower Manhattan. By all appearances her death is a suicide--but investigative journalist<br />

Scott McGrath suspects otherwise. Though much has been written about the dark and unsettling films of<br />

Ashley's father, Stanislas Cordova, very little is known about the man himself. As McGrath pieces<br />

together the mystery of Ashley's death, he is drawn deeper and deeper into the dark underbelly of New<br />

York City and the twisted world of Stanislas Cordova, and he begins to wonder--is he the next victim?<br />

THE NIGHT GUEST<br />

MCFARLANE, FIONA<br />

Ruth is widowed, her sons are grown, and she lives in an isolated beach house outside of town. Her<br />

routines are few and small. One day a stranger arrives at her door, looking as if she has been blown<br />

in from the sea. This woman—Frida—claims to be a care worker sent by the government. Ruth lets her in.<br />

Now that Frida is in her house, is Ruth right to fear the tiger she hears on the prowl at night, far from its<br />

jungle habitat? Why do memories of childhood in Fiji press upon her with increasing urgency? How far<br />

can she trust this mysterious woman, Frida, who seems to carry with her her own troubled past? And how<br />

far can Ruth trust herself? The Night Guest, Fiona McFarlane’s hypnotic first novel, is no simple tale of a<br />

crime committed and a mystery solved. This is a tale that soars above its own suspense to tell us, with<br />

exceptional grace and beauty, about ageing, love, trust, dependence, and fear; about processes of<br />

colonization; and about things (and people) in places they shouldn’t be. Here is a new writer who comes<br />

to us fully formed, working wonders with language, renewing our faith in the power of fiction to describe<br />

the mysterious workings of our minds.<br />

NIGHTMARE RANGE<br />

LIMON, MARTIN<br />

Twenty years ago, Martin Limón published his first mystery story featuring Sergeant George Sueño, a<br />

young Mexican American army detective stationed on the US 8th Army base in South Korea in the early<br />

1970s, the heart of the Cold War. George and his investigating partner, the rowdy and short-fused<br />

Sergeant Ernie Bascom, are assigned cases in which the 8th Army has come into conflict with local<br />

Korean law enforcement—often incidents in which American soldiers, who are not known for being on<br />

their best behavior in their Asian host country, have committed a crime. George Sueño's job is partially to<br />

solve crimes, but mostly to cover top brass's backside and make sure the US Army doesn't look bad.<br />

Thoughtful, observant George, who is conversant in Korean, constantly faces difficult choices about<br />

whether to follow his orders or his conscience. Nine critically acclaimed novels later, Soho Crime is<br />

releasing a collection of Martin Limón's award-winning short stories featuring Sergeants Sueño and<br />

Bascom. The stories within have been published over the last twenty years in a variety of magazines,<br />

mostly in Alfred Hitchcock, but have never before been available in book form. This beautifully produced<br />

limited-edition hardcover volume is sure to attract both critical attention and to appeal to collectors. A<br />

must-have for literary mystery readers.<br />

AN OFFICER AND A SPY<br />

HARRIS, ROBERT<br />

Paris. 1895. On a freezing January morning, the Jewish army officer, Alfred Dreyfus, is stripped of his<br />

rank in front of a baying crowd of 20,000, and deported for life to Devil’s Island. Among those watching his<br />

humiliation is a high-flying intelligence officer, the clever and resourceful Georges Picquart, whose<br />

dangerous love affairs leave him wide open to blackmail. A few months later, Picquart discovers the<br />

Germans still have a spy operating in France. He mounts a sophisticated surveillance operation to trap<br />

the traitor. But the results are far more alarming than he ever expected, opening up a trail of corruption<br />

and deceit that leads him all the way to the highest ranks of the French army and government. Now, in a<br />

vividly-written secret memoir kept under lock and key for more than 100 years, Picquart brings to life the<br />

Paris of the 1890s and tells the true story of a scandal that mesmerised the world.<br />

OLD BETRAYAL: A CHARLES LENOX MYSTERY<br />

FINCH, CHARLES<br />

On a spring morning in London, 1875, Charles Lenox agrees to take time away from his busy schedule as<br />

a Member of Parliament to meet an old protégé’s client at Charing Cross. But when their cryptic<br />

encounter seems to lead, days later, to the murder of an innocuous country squire, this fast favor draws<br />

Lenox inexorably back into his old profession. Soon he realizes that, far from concluding the murderer’s<br />

business, this body is only the first step in a cruel plan, many years in the plotting. Where will he strike<br />

next? The answer, Lenox learns with slowly dawning horror, may be at the very heart of England’s<br />

monarchy. Ranging from the slums of London to the city’s corridors of power, the newest Charles Lenox<br />

novel bears all of this series’ customary wit, charm, and trickery—a compulsive escape to a different time.<br />

HILL, REGINALD<br />

Three little girls, one by one, had vanished from the farming village of Dendale. And Superintendent Andy<br />

Dalziel, a young detective in those days, never found their bodies--or the person who snatched them.<br />

Then the valley where Dendale stood was flooded to create a reservoir, and the town itself ceased to be .<br />

. . except in Dalziel's memory. Twelve years later, the threads of past and present are slowly winding into<br />

a chilling mosaic. A drought and dropping water table have brought Dendale's ruins into view. And a little<br />

girl has gone missing from a nearby village. Helped by Chief Inspector Peter Pascoe, an older, fatter, and<br />

wiser Dalziel has a second chance to uncover the secrets of a drowned valley. And now the identity of a<br />

killer rests on what one child saw . . . and what another, now grown, fears with all her heart to remember .<br />

ON BLACK SISTERS' STREET<br />

UNIGWE, CHIKA<br />

Before Efe came to Belgium, she imagined castles and clean streets and snow as white as salt. Belgium,<br />

'...a country wey dey Europe. Next door to London'. At the house on Zwarterzusterstraat, four very<br />

different women have made their way from Africa to claim for themselves the riches of Europe. Sisi, Ama,<br />

Efe and Joyce are prostitutes, the girls who stand in the windows of the red-light district, promising to<br />

make men's dreams come true - if only for half an hour and fifty euros. The murder of Sisi, the most<br />

enigmatic of the women, shatters their already fragile world and as the women gather to mourn, the<br />

stories they have kept hidden are finally told. Drawn together by tragedy, the women reveal, each in her<br />

own voice, what has brought them to their present lives. Joyce, a great beauty whose life has been<br />

destroyed by war; Ama, whose dark moods manifest a past injustice; Efe, whose efforts to earn her keep<br />

are motivated by a particular zeal and finally, Sisi, whose imagination takes her far beyond the squalor of<br />

her reality. These are stories of terror, of displacement, of love, and of a sinister man named Dele...Raw,<br />

vivid and suffused with the power of the oral story-telling tradition, "On Black Sisters' Street" is a moving<br />

story of the illusion of the West through African eyes, and its annihilation. It is also, however, a story of<br />

courage, of unity and of hope.<br />

ON SUCH A FULL SEA<br />

LEE, CHANG-RAE<br />

On Such a Full Sea takes Chang-rae Lee’s elegance of prose, his masterly storytelling, and his longstanding<br />

interests in identity, culture, work, and love, and lifts them to a new plane. Stepping from the<br />

realistic and historical territories of his previous work, Lee brings us into a world created from scratch.<br />

Against a vividly imagined future America, Lee tells a stunning, surprising, and riveting story that will<br />

change the way readers think about the world they live in. In a future, long-declining America, society is<br />

strictly stratified by class. Long-abandoned urban neighborhoods have been repurposed as highwalled,<br />

self-contained labor colonies. And the members of the labor class—descendants of those brought over en<br />

masse many years earlier from environmentally ruined provincial China—find purpose and identity in their<br />

work to provide pristine produce and fish to the small, elite, satellite charter villages that ring the labor<br />

settlement. In this world lives Fan, a female fish-tank diver, who leaves her home in the B-Mor settlement<br />

(once known as Baltimore), when the man she loves mysteriously disappears. Fan’s journey to find him<br />

takes her out of the safety of B-Mor, through the anarchic Open Counties, where crime is rampant with<br />

scant governmental oversight, and to a faraway charter village, in a quest that will soon become legend to<br />

those she left behind.<br />

ONCE UPON A LIE<br />

BARBIERI, MAGGIE<br />

Maeve Conlon's life is coming apart at the seams. Her bakery is barely making ends meet, and one of her<br />

daughters spends as much time grounded as the other does studying. Her ex-husband has a new wife, a<br />

new baby, and a look of pity for Maeve that's absolutely infuriating. Her father insists he's still<br />

independent, but he's slowly and obviously succumbing to Alzheimer's. And now, her cousin Sean<br />

Donovan has been found dead, sitting in his car in a public park, shot through the head. There was never<br />

much love lost between Maeve and Sean and she's not exactly devastated by his death, but suddenly the<br />

police are poking around asking the family questions. It's just one more hassle Maeve doesn't have time<br />

for, until she realizes that her father, whose memory and judgment are unreliable at best, is a suspect in<br />

the murder. Maeve is determined to clear his name, but is she prepared to cope with the dark memories<br />

and long-hidden secrets that doing so might dredge up?<br />

A visceral portrait of life at a crossroads, The Orenda opens with a brutal massacre and the kidnapping of<br />

the Huron Nation’s great warriors and statesmen. It has been years since the murder of his family and yet<br />

they are never far from his mind. In Snow Falls, Bird recognizes the ghost of his lost daughter and sees<br />

the girl possesses powerful magic that will be useful to him on the troubled road ahead. Bird’s people<br />

have battled the Iroquois for as long as he can remember, but both tribes now face a new, more<br />

dangerous threat from afar. Christophe, a charismatic Jesuit missionary, has found his calling amongst<br />

the Huron and devotes himself to learning and understanding their customs and language in order to lead<br />

them to Christ. An emissary from distant lands, he brings much more than his faith to the new world. As<br />

these three souls dance each other through intricately woven acts of duplicity, small battles erupt into<br />

bigger wars and a nation emerges from worlds in flux.<br />

The “Sons of Prophecy” take responsibility and issue an ultimatum: If their demands are not met in seven<br />

sitting President Sands, about to leave office, calls in former CIA operative and master thief Robin<br />

of portly, worldly-wise Gripstra and handsome, contemplative de Gier. With its unvarnished depiction of<br />

procedural asks the question of whether a murder may ever be justly committed.<br />

years on, almost every human being has a SymboGen tapeworm living within them. But these parasites<br />

are getting restless. They want their own lives . . . and will do anything to get them.<br />

when a wealthy industrialist offers him a large sum of money to devise secret hiding places for Jews,<br />

Lucien struggles with the choice of risking his life for a cause he doesn't really believe in. Ultimately he<br />

within a column, or inside a drainpipe—detecting possibilities invisible to the average eye. But when one<br />

of his clever hiding spaces fails horribly and the immense suffering of Jews becomes incredibly personal,<br />

he can no longer deny reality.<br />

THE PEERLESS FOUR<br />

PATTERSON, VICTORIA<br />

Running so hard you think you’ll choke on your next breath. Peripheral vision blurred by the same<br />

adrenaline that drowns out the cheers coming from the full stadium. And of course, the reporters. The<br />

men scribbling furiously on their notepads so they can publish every stumble, sprain, and sniffle in these<br />

historic games. This was the world of the female athletes in the 1928 Amsterdam Olympics, the first<br />

games in which women were allowed to compete in track and field (and on a trial basis, at that).<br />

Nicknamed “the Peerless Four,” the Canadian track team included some of the strongest and most<br />

diversely talented women on the scene. Narrated by the team’s chaperone—a former runner herself—the<br />

women embark on their journey with the same golden goals as every other Olympian, male or female. But<br />

as the Olympic tension begins to rise with unexpected injuries, heartbreaking disqualifications, and the<br />

pressure of supreme athletic performance, each woman discovers new fears and new priorities, all while<br />

the weight of women’s future in the Olympics rests on their performance poise.<br />

PERFECT<br />

JOYCE, RACHEL<br />

On a foggy spring morning in 1972, twelve-year-old Byron Hemming and his mother are driving to school<br />

in the English countryside. On the way, in a life-changing two seconds, an accident occurs. Or does it?<br />

Byron is sure it happened, but his mother, sitting right next to him in the car, has no reaction to it. Over the<br />

course of the days and weeks that follow, Byron embarks on a journey to discover what really happened--<br />

or didn't--that fateful morning when everything changed. It is a journey that will take him--a loveable and<br />

cloistered twelve-year-old boy with a loveable and cloistered twelve-year-old boy's perspective on life--<br />

into the murkier, more difficult realities of the adult world, where people lie, fathers and mothers fight<br />

without words, and even unwilling boys must become men. Byron will have to reconcile the dueling<br />

realities of that summer, a testament to the perseverance of the human spirit and the power of<br />

compassion.<br />

PURE GOLD BABY<br />

DRABBLE, MARGARET<br />

Jessica Speight, a young anthropology student in 1960s London, is at the beginning of a promising<br />

academic career when an affair with her married professor turns her into a single mother. Anna is a pure<br />

gold baby with a delightful, sunny nature, but it soon becomes clear that she will not be a normal child. As<br />

readers are drawn deeper into Jessica’s world, they are confronted with questions of responsibility,<br />

potential, even age, all with Margaret Drabble’s characteristic intelligence, sympathy and wit. Drabble<br />

once wrote, “Family life itself, that safest, most traditional, most approved of female choices, is not a<br />

sanctuary; it is, perpetually, a dangerous place.” Told from the point of view of the group of mothers who<br />

surround Jess, The Pure Gold Baby is a brilliant, prismatic novel thattakes us into that place with satiric<br />

verve, trenchant commentary, and a movingly intimate story of the unexpected transformations at the<br />

heart of motherhood.<br />

THE QUARRY<br />

BANKS, IAIN M.<br />

Eighteen-year-old Kit is weird: big, strange, odd, socially disabled, on a spectrum that stretches from<br />

"highly gifted" at one end, to "nutter" at the other. At least Kit knows who his father is; he and Guy live<br />

together in a decaying country house on the unstable brink of a vast quarry. His mother's identity is<br />

another matter. Now, though, his father's dying, and old friends are gathering for one last time."Uncle"<br />

Paul's a media lawyer now; Rob and Ali are upwardly mobile corporate bunnies; pretty, hopeful Pris is a<br />

single mother; Haze is still living up to his drug-inspired name twenty years on; and fierce, protective Hol<br />

is a gifted if acerbic critic. As young film students they lived at Willoughtree House with Guy, and they've<br />

all come back because they want something. Kit, too, has his own ulterior motives. Before his father dies<br />

he wants to know who his mother is, and what's on the mysterious tape they're all looking for. But most of<br />

all he wants to stop time and keep his father alive. Fast-paced, gripping and savagely funny, The Quarry<br />

is a virtuoso performance whose soaring riffs on the inexhaustible marvel of human perception and rage<br />

against the dying of the light will stand among Iain Banks' greatest work.<br />

RASPUTIN'S SHADOW<br />

KHOURY, RAYMOND<br />

On a cold, bleak day in 1916, all hell breaks loose in a mining pit in the Ural Mountains. Overcome by a<br />

strange paranoia, the miners attack one another, savagely and ferociously. Minutes later, two men—a<br />

horrified scientist and Grigory Rasputin, trusted confidant of the tsar—hit a detonator, blowing up the mine<br />

to conceal all evidence of the carnage. In the present day, FBI agent Sean Reilly’s search for Reed<br />

Corrigan, the CIA mindcontrol spook who brainwashed Reilly’s son, takes a backseat to a new, disturbing<br />

case. A Russian embassy attaché seems to have committed suicide by jumping out of a fourth-floor<br />

window in Queens. The apartment’s owners, a retired physics teacher from Russia and his wife, have<br />

gone missing, and further investigation reveals that the former may not be who the FBI believe him to be.<br />

Joined by Russian Federal Security Service agent Larisa Tchoumitcheva, Reilly’s investigation of the old<br />

man’s identity will uncover a desperate search for a small, mysterious device, with consequences that<br />

reach back in time and which, in the wrong hands, could have a devastating impact on the modern world.<br />

woman turns up dead in what appears to be an accident. On her houseboat, Vicky Hawks is found by one<br />

of her neighbors having apparently succumbed to carbon monoxide poisoning due to improper ventilation<br />

of the narrowboat’s heating system. But while the cause of death seems apparent and there’s no reason<br />

for Kolla to think otherwise, something about this death still bothers her. Meanwhile, her boss, DCI Brock,<br />

is wrestling with harsh budget cuts and a new Commander who is determined to make fundamental<br />

changes to the system—including limiting resources devoted to investigations. Struggling against the<br />

limitations imposed by the new order at Scotland Yard, Brock and Kolla find themselves pulling at the<br />

loose strings in the death of Vicky Hawks, trying to find out who she really was, what she was up to, and<br />

how her death might be related to another earlier tragic accidental death.<br />

Harold and Lucille Hargrave's lives have been both joyful and sorrowful in the decades since their only<br />

son, Jacob, died tragically at his eighth birthday party in 1966. In their old age they've settled comfortably<br />

into life without him, their wounds tempered through the grace of time.... Until one day Jacob mysteriously<br />

appears on their doorstep-flesh and blood, their sweet, precocious child, still eight years old. All over the<br />

world people's loved ones are returning from beyond. No one knows how or why this is happening,<br />

whether it's a miracle or a sign of the end. Not even Harold and Lucille can agree on whether the boy is<br />

real or a wondrous imitation, but one thing they know for sure: he's their son. As chaos erupts around the<br />

globe, the newly reunited Hargrave family finds itself at the center of a community on the brink of<br />

collapse, forced to navigate a mysterious new reality and a conflict that threatens to unravel the very<br />

J.J. Abrams has created, written, produced, and directed groundbreaking television shows such as the<br />

Emmy and Golden Globe Award-winning Lost and Alias and blockbuster films such as Star Trek,<br />

Cloverfield, Super 8, Mission: Impossible and Armageddon. His work is renowned for its sense of wonder<br />

and invention, and for helping reshape what's possible in film and television today. In his first-ever idea for<br />

a novel, Abrams conceived of and developed a multi-layered literary puzzle of love and adventure. At its<br />

core, we have a book of mysterious provenance. In the margins, another tale unfolds: hand-scribbled<br />

notes, questions, and confrontations between two readers. Between the pages, online, and in the real<br />

world, you'll find evidence of their interaction, ephemera that brings this tale vividly to life.<br />

institution of love we are instructed to hold dear. Peopled with forensic archaeologists, horoscope writers,<br />

dental hygienists, and even butchers, Glover’s stories are of our time yet timeless; spectacular fables that<br />

stand in any era, any civilization. Whether he is writing about sexually ambiguous librarians or<br />

desperadoes of the most despicable kind, Glover exposes the humanity lurking behind our masks, the<br />

perversities that underlie our actions.<br />

SCANDAL AT SIX<br />

PURSER, ANN<br />

Spring has arrived in Long Farnden and with it, a mysterious infestation. Lois Meade’s daughter has<br />

found her village store overrun by insects and reptiles. And Lois has no time to stop and smell the roses,<br />

if she’s to stay one step ahead of the creepy crawlies. As Lois looks into the invasion, she becomes<br />

embroiled in yet another “ferretin’ case,” as her husband would say. Her investigation leads her to Robert<br />

Pettinson, a seemingly unhinged zookeeper, and his nephew. The two of them are knee-deep in illegal<br />

trade, and they don’t take kindly to Lois poking her nose into their business. Lois enlists the help of her<br />

faithful cleaner Dot Nimmo and police inspector Hunter Cowgill to discover more about Pettinson and a<br />

suspicious death at the zoo. And death is in store for more people, if Lois doesn’t put the killer behind<br />

bars soon…<br />

THE SCOTTISH PLAY MURDER<br />

RUTHERFORD, ANNE<br />

When charming Scotsman Diarmid Ramsay asks to play the titular role in Macbeth, he sets off a flurry of<br />

excitement among The New Globe Players. Despite protests from the company director that performing<br />

the “Scottish play” will lead only to disaster, Suzanne decides that the show must go on—with herself<br />

acting the part of Lady Macbeth, opposite the handsome stranger. Rehearsals begin—but then rumors<br />

about Ramsay arise, implicating him in the death of a sailor found behind the Goat and Boar. Is the man a<br />

murderer, possibly involved in a plot against the newly restored king? Suzanne refuses to believe it, until<br />

another murder connected to Ramsay occurs.<br />

SECRECY<br />

THOMPSON, RUPERT<br />

It is Florence, 1691. The Renaissance is long gone, and the city is a dark, repressive place, where<br />

everything is forbidden and anything is possible. The Enlightenment may be just around the corner, but<br />

knowledge is still the property of the few, and they guard it fiercely. Art, sex and power - these, as always,<br />

are the obsessions. Facing serious criminal charges, Gaetano Zummo is forced to flee his native Siracusa<br />

at the age of twenty, first to Palermo, then Naples, but always has the feeling that he is being pursued by<br />

his past, and that he will never be free of it. Zummo works an artist in wax. He is fascinated by the plague,<br />

and makes small wooden cabinets in which he places graphic, tortured models of the dead and dying. But<br />

Cosimo III, Tuscany's penultimate Medici ruler, gives Zummo his most challenging commission yet, and<br />

as he tackles it his path entwines with that of the apothecary's daughter Faustina, whose secret is even<br />

more explosive than his. Poignant but paranoid, sensual yet chilling, Secrecy is a novel that buzzes with<br />

intrigue and ideas. It is a love story, a murder mystery, a portrait of a famous city in an age of austerity, an<br />

exercise in concealment and revelation, but above all it is a trapdoor narrative, one story dropping<br />

unexpectedly into another, the ground always slippery, uncertain...<br />

next year as a "S.E.C.R.E.T. member-at-large," not quite a guide, she'll assist Committee members<br />

(including two new ones, Kit DeMarco and Angela Rejean) in recruiting men and helping to execute a new<br />

Dauphine Gray, a 31-year old who works at the Funky Monkey vintage clothing store on Magazine Street<br />

in New Orleans. Geeky, gawky and easily distracted, Dauphine has no idea how attractive she really is<br />

because her face is forever in a book. Reading is her passion, music is her pleasure, and Dauphine's all<br />

but given up on sex, especially after a painful rejection that still haunts her. Then Cassie and the women<br />

from S.E.C.R.E.T. show her it's possible to reignite that flame.<br />

SENSE AND SENSIBILITY<br />

TROLLOPE, JOANNA<br />

When their father unexpectedly dies, the three Dashwood girls—Elinor, Marianne and Margaret—must<br />

face the harsh reality of a life where they no longer have the home or the financial security that they have<br />

always taken for granted. As they come to terms with life without the comforts of either their country<br />

house or an inheritance, Elinor, a sensible architecture student, and Marianne, a passionate, musical free<br />

spirit, are also confronted by a world where their choices are abruptly limited by their new and alarming<br />

circumstances. With her trademark insight and wit, Joanna Trollope has brought Austen’s characters and<br />

their story into the 21st century. In the timeless spirit of their creator, she casts a clever, gently satirical<br />

eye on Elinor and Marianne as they are forced to navigate the modern world and the search for love. The<br />

results are both heartbreaking and hilarious, but always, in the hands of consummate storyteller Trollope,<br />

hugely entertaining and achingly true to life. Reimagining Sense and Sensibility in a fresh and<br />

contemporary light, Trollope recasts this beloved coming-of-age story as a perfect tale for our times.<br />

SEVEN FOR A SECRET<br />

FAYE, LYNDSAY<br />

Six months after the formation of the NYPD, its most reluctant and talented officer, Timothy Wilde, thinks<br />

himself well versed in his city’s dark practices—until he learns of the gruesome underworld of lies and<br />

corruption ruled by the “blackbirders,” who snatch free Northerners of color from their homes and sell<br />

them South to toil as plantation property. The abolitionist Timothy is horrified by these traders in human<br />

flesh. But in 1846, slave catching isn’t just legal—it’s law enforcement. When the beautiful Lucy Adams<br />

staggers into Timothy’s office to report a robbery and is asked what was stolen, her reply is, “My family.”<br />

WESTERSON, JERI<br />

Once a Knight of the Realm, Crispin Guest was stripped of his title and his lands and must now earn his<br />

meager living through his wits. With the help of his young apprentice, reformed thief Jack Tucker, Guest is<br />

known to certain populations as The Tracker, the man who can find anything—for a price. It is for that<br />

reason that Guest is sought out by Nicholas Flamel, an absent-minded alchemist. Both Flamel’s wife and<br />

his apprentice are missing, and he wants Guest to find them and bring them home. Before he can even<br />

begin looking, Guest discovers that Flamel’s house has been ransacked. Then Flamel’s assistant turns<br />

up—dead, hanging from the rafters with a note pinned to his chest by a dagger. It is a ransom note that<br />

promises the safe return of his wife in exchange for the Philosopher’s Stone, which is reputed to turn lead<br />

into gold and create the elixir of life. And the kidnappers aren’t the only ones after it. From the highest<br />

nobility to Flamel’s fellow alchemists, everyone is seeking the stone for themselves. Guest must rescue<br />

the missing wife and find the stone before it falls into unworthy hands.<br />

centuries, the novel follows the fortunes of the extraordinary Whittaker family as led by the enterprising<br />

Henry Whittaker—a poor-born Englishman who makes a great fortune in the South American quinine<br />

trade, eventually becoming the richest man in Philadelphia. Born in 1800, Henry’s brilliant daughter, Alma<br />

(who inherits both her father’s money and his mind), ultimately becomes a botanist of considerable gifts<br />

herself. As Alma’s research takes her deeper into the mysteries of evolution, she falls in love with a man<br />

named Ambrose Pike who makes incomparable paintings of orchids and who draws her in the exact<br />

opposite direction—into the realm of the spiritual, the divine, and the magical. Alma is a clear-minded<br />

scientist; Ambrose a utopian artist—but what unites this unlikely couple is a desperate need to<br />

understand the workings of this world and the mechanisms behind all life.<br />

SOMEONE<br />

MCDERMOTT, ALICE<br />

An ordinary life—its sharp pains and unexpected joys, its bursts of clarity and moments of confusion—<br />

lived by an ordinary woman: this is the subject of Someone, Alice McDermott’s extraordinary return,<br />

seven years after the publication of After This. Scattered recollections—of childhood, adolescence,<br />

motherhood, old age—come together in this transformative narrative, stitched into a vibrant whole by<br />

McDermott’s deft, lyrical voice. Our first glimpse of Marie is as a child: a girl in glasses waiting on a<br />

Brooklyn stoop for her beloved father to come home from work. A seemingly innocuous encounter with a<br />

young woman named Pegeen sets the bittersweet tone of this remarkable novel. She describes herself<br />

as an “amadan,” a fool; indeed, soon after her chat with Marie,Pegeen tumbles down her own basement<br />

stairs. The magic of McDermott’s novel lies in how it reveals us all as fools for this or that, in one way or<br />

another. Marie’s first heartbreak and her eventual marriage; her brother’s brief stint as a Catholic priest,<br />

subsequent loss of faith and eventual breakdown; the Second World War; her parents’ deaths; the births<br />

and lives of Marie’s children; the changing world of her Irish-American enclave in Brooklyn—McDermott<br />

sketches all of it with sympathy and insight.<br />

destiny the way other people do. A brilliant geneticist who believes in science and numbers, destiny to<br />

him is about choice. Now, he and Shandi are about to meet their so-called destinies head on, making<br />

One hundred fifty years of Roses' Tolivers, Warwicks, and DuMonts! We begin in the antebellum South on<br />

Plantation Alley in South Carolina, where Silas Toliver, deprived of his inheritance, joins up with his best<br />

friend Jeremy Warwick to plan a wagon train expedition to the "black waxy" promise of a new territory<br />

called Texas. Slavery, westward expansion, abolition, the Civil War, love, marriage, friendship, tragedy<br />

and triumph-all the ingredients (and much more) that made so many love Roses so much-are here in<br />

abundance.<br />

SOMETHING BORROWED, SOMEONE DEAD<br />

BEATON, M.C.<br />

Gloria French was a jolly widow with dyed blonde hair, a raucous laugh and rosy cheeks. When she first<br />

moved from London to the charming Cotswolds hills, she was heartily welcomed. She seemed a dogooder<br />

par excellence, raising funds for the church and caring for the elderly. But she had a nasty habit<br />

of borrowing things and not giving them back, just small things, a teapot here, a set of silverware<br />

there. So it's quite the shock when she is found dead, murdered by a poisoned bottle of elderberry<br />

wine. Afraid the murder will be a blight on the small town, Parish councillor, Jerry Tarrant, hires private<br />

detective Agatha Raisin to track down the murderer. But the village is secretive and the residents resent<br />

Agatha's investigation. Of course that doesn't stop the ever-persistent Agatha from investigating and<br />

sticking her nose where no one wants it—especially as the suspect list grows. And, as if it isn't enough<br />

that Agatha's ex has reentered the picture, the murderer is now targeting Agatha!<br />

THE SON OF A CERTAIN WOMAN<br />

JOHNSTON, WAYNE<br />

Here comes little Percy Joyce, born in St. John's in the '50s, an outsider afflicted from birth with a<br />

congenital disfigurement but a regular boy on the cusp of teenagehood, fillled with yearning, wild with<br />

hormones, longing for what he can't have, for wanting to be let in...and let out; and his disturbingly alluring<br />

mother, Penelope, whose sex appeal fairly leaps off the page. Every man in St. John's lusts after her,<br />

inlcuding her sister-in-law Medina, her paying border, Pops MacDougall, with whom she carries on an<br />

affair of convenience--and Percy. They live in the Mount, home of the city's Catholic schools and most of<br />

its clerics, including the Archbishop of Newfoundland and the villainous Brother McHugh who will go to<br />

any lengths to bring Penelope and her unbaptized boy into the bosom of the Church. But there are darker<br />

secrets: Penelope and Medina's love is an illegal relationship in that time: if caught, they will be sent to<br />

the mental hospital, and Percy will be left alone. Will they be found out? Will Percy sleep with Penelope?<br />

Will Percy be lured into the Church? This rich, generous novel reminds us that we all long to be let in, to<br />

be loved, and that we can't always have, but sometimes do get, what we want.<br />

A SPIDER IN THE CUP<br />

CLEVERLY, BARBARA<br />

At dawn one morning in 1933, an amateur dowsing team digging the banks of the Thames for precious<br />

metals unearths the body of a young woman with a priceless gold coin in her mouth and a missing toe.<br />

The case falls on Assistant Commissioner of Scotland Yard Joe Sandilands's turf, but he's been given<br />

another assignment—and a very high-profile one. London is hosting a historic global economic<br />

conference to try to solve the global Depression, and political tensions are running very high, as very<br />

influential participants are starting to take positions allied with or staunchly against the rapidly militarizing<br />

Germany. Sandilands's job is to protect and keep an eye on the visiting American senator Cornelius<br />

Kingstone, right-hand man to President Roosevelt, throughout the conference. When a strange set of<br />

coincidences link the river bank body to the senator, Joe realizes his assignment is much bigger than he'd<br />

thought, and that Senator Kingstone is caught up in a very dangerous game—one that might cost not just<br />

one but thousands of lives.<br />

JOHNSON, CRAIG<br />

A holiday tale from the "New York Times" bestselling author of the Walt Longmire mystery series, the<br />

inspiration for A&E's hit show "Longmire" "It's a question of what you have to do, what you have to live<br />

with if you don't." Sheriff Walt Longmire is reading "A Christmas Carol" in his office on December 24th<br />

when he's interrupted by the ghost of Christmas past: a young woman with a hairline scar across her<br />

forehead and more than a few questions about Walt's predecessor, Lucian Connally. Walt doesn't<br />

recognize the mystery woman, but she seems to know him and claims to have something she must return<br />

to Connally. With his daughter, Cady, and his undersheriff Vic Moretti in Philadelphia for the holidays, Walt<br />

is at loose ends, and despite the woman's reticence to reveal her identity, he agrees to help her. At the<br />

Durant Home for Assisted Living Lucian Connally is several tumblers into his Pappy Van Winkle's and<br />

swears he's never clapped eyes on the woman before. Disappointed, she whispers "Steamboat" and<br />

begins a story that takes them all back to Christmas Eve 1988, when three people died in a terrible crash<br />

and a young girl had the slimmest chance of survival . . . back to a record- breaking blizzard, to Walt's first<br />

year as sheriff, with a young daughter at home and a wife praying for his safety . . . back to a whiskeysoaked<br />

THE SPYMISTRESS<br />

CHIAVERINI, JENNIFER<br />

Born to slave-holding aristocracy in Richmond, Virginia, and educated by Northern Quakers, Elizabeth<br />

Van Lew was a paradox of her time. When her native state seceded in April 1861, Van Lew’s convictions<br />

compelled her to defy the new Confederate regime. Pledging her loyalty to the Lincoln White House, her<br />

courage would never waver, even as her wartime actions threatened not only her reputation, but also her<br />

life. Van Lew’s skills in gathering military intelligence were unparalleled. She helped to construct the<br />

Richmond Underground and orchestrated escapes from the infamous Confederate Libby Prison under the<br />

guise of humanitarian aid. Her spy ring’s reach was vast, from clerks in the Confederate War and Navy<br />

Departments to the very home of Confederate President Jefferson Davis. Although Van Lew was inducted<br />

posthumously into the Military Intelligence Hall of Fame, the astonishing scope of her achievements has<br />

never been widely known. In Chiaverini’s riveting tale of high-stakes espionage, a great heroine of the<br />

Civil War finally gets her due.<br />

THE STRANGER YOU KNOW<br />

KANE, ANDREA<br />

College-age girls with long red hair. Brutally murdered, they're posed like victims in a film noir. Each crime<br />

scene is eerily similar to the twisted fantasy of a serial offender now serving thirty years to life-a criminal<br />

brought to justice with the help of Forensic Instincts. Call. Kill. Repeat. But the similarities are more than<br />

one psychopath's desire to outdo another. As more red-headed victims are added to the body count, it<br />

becomes clear that each one has been chosen because of a unique connection to Casey-a connection<br />

that grows closer and closer to her. Now the Forensic Instincts team must race to uncover the identity of a<br />

serial killer before his ever-tightening circle of death closes in on Casey as the ultimate target. As the<br />

stalker methodically moves in on his prey, his actions make one thing clear: he knows everything about<br />

Casey. And Casey realizes that this psychopathic won't stop until he makes sure she's dead.<br />

SUGAR POP MOON<br />

FLORIO, JOHN<br />

Jersey Leo is the quintessential outsider--an albino of mixed race. Known as "Snowball" on the street, he<br />

makes a living as the bartender at a mob-run speakeasy in Prohibition-era Hell's Kitchen. Being neither<br />

black nor white, he has no group to call his own. His own mother abandoned him as a baby. And his<br />

father-a former boxing champ with his own secrets-disapproves of Jersey's work at a dive owned by one<br />

of New York's most notorious gangsters. So when he inadvertently purchases counterfeit moonshine<br />

("sugar pop moon") with his boss's money-a potentially fatal mistake-he must go undercover to track<br />

down the bootlegger who took him in. The clues lead to Philadelphia, where he runs into a cleaverswinging<br />

madman out for his femurs and a cold-blooded gangster holed up on a Christmas-tree farm.<br />

Now with a price on his head in two cities, Jersey seeks help from the only man he can trust, his father.<br />

As the two delve into the origins of the mysterious sugar pop moon, stunning secrets about Jersey's past<br />

come to light. To ensure his future, Jersey must face his past, even if it means that life will never return to<br />

normal.<br />

SWEET THUNDER<br />

DOIG, IVAN<br />

In the winter of 1920, a quirky bequest draws Morrie Morgan back to Butte, Montana, from a year-long<br />

honeymoon with his bride, Grace. But the mansion bestowed by a former boss upon the itinerant<br />

charmer, who debuted in Doig’s bestselling The Whistling Season, promises to be less windfall than<br />

money pit. And the town itself, with its polyglot army of miners struggling to extricate themselves from the<br />

stranglehold of the ruthless Anaconda Copper Mining Company, seems—like the couple’s fastdiminishing<br />

finances—on the verge of implosion. These twin dilemmas catapult Morrie into his new career<br />

as editorialist for the Thunder, the fledgling union newspaper that dares to play David to Anaconda’s<br />

Goliath. Amid the clatter of typewriters, the rumble of the printing presses, and a cast of unforgettable<br />

characters, Morrie puts his gift for word-slinging to work. As he pursues victory for the miners, he<br />

discovers that he is enmeshed in a deeply personal battle as well—the struggle to win lasting love for<br />

himself.<br />

SWORD OF ROME<br />

JACKSON, DOUGLAS<br />

AD 68. The Emperor Nero’s erratic and bloody reign is in its death throes when Gaius Valerius Verrens is<br />

dispatched to Rome on a mission that will bring it to a close. With Nero dead, the city holds its breath and<br />

awaits the arrival his successor, Servius Sulpicius Galba, governor of Hispania. The Empire prays for<br />

peace, but it prays in vain. Galba promises stability and prosperity, but his rule begins with a massacre<br />

and ends only months later in chaos and carnage. This will become known as the Year of the Four<br />

Emperors, a time of civil war which will tear Rome apart and test Valerius’s skills and loyalties to their very<br />

limit. Fortunate to survive Galba’s fall, Valerius is sent on a mission by Rome’s new Emperor, Otho, to his<br />

old friend Vitellius, commander of the armies of the north. Vitellius’s legions are on the march, and only<br />

Valerius can persuade him to halt them before the inevitable confrontation. In an epic adventure that will<br />

take him the length and breadth of a divided land, the one-armed Roman fights to stay alive and stave off<br />

a bloodbath as he is stalked by the most implacable enemy he has ever faced.<br />

A TAP ON THE WINDOW<br />

BARCLAY, LINWOOD<br />

It's been two months since private investigator Cal Weaver's teenage son, Scott, died in a tragic drugrelated<br />

accident. Ever since, he and his wife have drifted apart, fracturing a once-normal life. Cal is mired<br />

in grief he can't move past. And maybe that has clouded his judgment. Because he made a grave mistake<br />

driving home on a very rainy night. A drenched young girl tapped on his window as he sat at a stoplight<br />

and asked for a ride. And even though he knew a forty-something man picking up a teenage hitchhiker is<br />

a fool, he let her in the car--she was the same age as Scott and maybe she could help him find the dealer<br />

who sold his son the drugs that killed him. However, after a brief stop at a roadside diner, Cal senses that<br />

something's not right with the girl or the situation. But it's too late. He's already involved.<br />

SMITH, MARTIN CRUZ<br />

One of the iconic investigators of contemporary fiction, Arkady Renko—cynical, analytical, and quietly<br />

subversive—has survived the cultural journey from the Soviet Union to the New Russia. In Tatiana, Martin<br />

Cruz Smith’s most ambitious novel since Gorky Park, the melancholy hero finds himself on the trail of a<br />

mystery as complex and dangerous as modern Russia herself. The fearless investigative reporter Tatiana<br />

Petrovna falls to her death from a sixth-floor window in Moscow the same week that a mob billionaire,<br />

Grisha Grigorenko, is shot and buried with the trappings due a lord. No one makes the connection, but<br />

Arkady is transfixed by the tapes he discovers of Tatiana’s voice, even as she describes horrific crimes<br />

hidden by official versions. The trail leads to Kaliningrad, a Cold War “secret city” and home of the Baltic<br />

Fleet, separated by hundreds of miles from the rest of Russia. Arkady delves into Tatiana’s past and a<br />

surreal world of wandering dunes and amber mines. His only link is a notebook written in the personal<br />

code of a translator whose body is found in the dunes. Arkady’s only hope of decoding the symbols lies in<br />

Zhenya, a teenage chess hustler.<br />

TEAR YOU APART<br />

HART, MEGAN<br />

“I'm on a train. I don't know which stop I got on at; I only know the train is going fast and the world outside<br />

becomes a blur. I should get off, but I don't. The universe is playing a cosmic joke on me. Here I had my<br />

life—a good life with everything a woman could want—and suddenly, there is something more I didn't<br />

know I could have. A chance for me to be satisfied and content and maybe even on occasion deliriously,<br />

amazingly, exuberantly happy. So this is where I am, on a train that's out of control, and I am not just a<br />

passenger. I'm the one shoveling the furnace full of coal to keep it going fast and faster. If I could make<br />

myself believe it all happened by chance and I couldn't help it, that I've been swept away, that it's not my<br />

fault, that it's fate…would that be easier? The truth is, I didn't know I was looking for this until I found Will,<br />

but I must've been, all this time. And now it is not random, it is not fate, it is not being swept away. This is<br />

my choice. And I don't know how to stop. Or even if I want to.”<br />

TEN LORDS A-LEAPING<br />

BENISON, C.C.<br />

A skydiving routine for charity goes horribly awry, leaving a wealthy lord dead and his household at odds<br />

over whether it was a tragic accident . . . or cold-blooded murder at twenty thousand feet. To fundraise for<br />

the parish in bucolic Thornford Regis, Father Tom Christmas skydives, plummeting for charity. While his<br />

landing is bumpy, it's nothing compared to that of Hector, Earl of Fairhaven, who leaps from twenty<br />

thousand feet with disastrous results. Some residents of the town, including every member of the Earl's<br />

household, however, believe that those results were not accidental, and soon Tom Christmas is<br />

investigating a crime that will take him into the secrets of his own past, and in for a very hard landing of<br />

his own.<br />

THANKLESS IN DEATH<br />

ROBB, J. D.<br />

Lieutenant Eve Dallas has plenty to be grateful for this season. Hosting Roarke’s big Irish family for the<br />

holiday may be challenging, but it’s a joyful improvement on her own dark childhood. Other couples aren’t<br />

as lucky as Eve and Roarke. The Reinholds, for example, are lying in their home stabbed and<br />

bludgeoned almost beyond recognition. Those who knew them are stunned—and heartbroken by the<br />

evidence that they were murdered by their own son. Twenty-six-year-old Jerry hadn’t made a great<br />

impression on the bosses who fired him or the girlfriend who dumped him—but they didn’t think he was<br />

capable of this. Turns out Jerry is not only capable of brutality but taking a liking to it. With the money he’s<br />

stolen from his parents and a long list of grievances, he intends to finally make his mark on the world. Eve<br />

and her team already know the who, how, and why of this murder. What they need to pinpoint is where<br />

Jerry’s going to strike next.<br />

ACKROYD, PETER<br />

Three Brothers follows the lives and fortunes of Harry, Daniel and Sam Hanway, a trio of brothers born on<br />

the same day in the middle of last century, in a grim council estate in Camden. After their mother<br />

inexplicably abandons the family, each boy is forced to make his own way in the world. From the bustling<br />

cut-throat world of Fleet street, hallowed London publishing offices, and the wealth and comfort of<br />

Chelsea, to the smoky shadowy streets of Limehouse and Hackney, this is a trip around the city, down its<br />

streets, riding on the tubes, at a very particular moment of history, and unusually for Ackroyd's fiction, all<br />

within living memory. London is the backdrop and the connecting fabric of these three lives, reinforcing<br />

Ackroyd's grand theme that history and the city both makes and creates us, surrounds and engulfs us.<br />

THREE CAN KEEP A SECRET<br />

MAYOR, ARCHER<br />

Joe Gunther and his team—the Vermont Bureau of Investigation (VBI)—are usually called in on major<br />

cases by local Vermont enforcement whenever they need expertise and back-up. But after the state is<br />

devastated by Hurricane Irene, the police from one end of the state are taxed to their limits, leaving Joe<br />

Gunther involved in an odd, seemingly unrelated series of cases. In the wake of the hurricane, a<br />

seventeen year old gravesite is exposed, revealing a coffin that had been filled with rocks instead of the<br />

expected remains. At the same time, an old, retired state politician turns up dead at his high-end nursing<br />

home, in circumstances that leave investigators unsure that he wasn’t murdered. And a patient who calls<br />

herself The Governor has walked away from a state mental facility during the post-hurricane flood. It turns<br />

out that she was indeed once “Governor for a Day,” over forty years ago, but that she might have<br />

also been falsely committed and drugged to keep her from revealing something that she saw all those<br />

years ago. Amidst the turmoil and the disaster relief, it’s up to Joe Gunther and his team to learn what<br />

really happened with the two corpses—one missing—and what secret “The Governor” might have still<br />

locked in her brain that links them all.<br />

UNDRESSING MR. DARCY<br />

DOORNEBOS, KAREN<br />

Forty-year-old American social-media master Vanessa Roberts lives her thoroughly modern life with<br />

aplomb. So when her elderly Jane Austen–centric aunt needs her to take on the public relations for Julian<br />

Chancellor, a very private man from England who’s written a book called My Year as Mr. Darcy, Vanessa<br />

rankles at the thought. Hardbound books, teacups, and quill pens fly in the face of her e-reader, coffee,<br />

and laptop… …until she finally sees Julian take off his tight breeches for his Undressing Mr. Darcy show,<br />

an educational “striptease” to promote his book. The public relations expert suddenly realizes things have<br />

gotten…personal. But can this old-fashioned man claim her heart without so much as a GPS? It will take<br />

three festivals filled with Austen fans, a trip to England, a conniving frenemy, and a sexy pirate reenactor<br />

to find out…<br />

UP IN SMOKE<br />

PENNIE, ROSS<br />

Epidemic investigator Dr. Zol Szabo and his team are called to a high school in the heart of Ontario’s<br />

tobacco country, where unexplained deaths from liver failure are creating panic. The team begins to<br />

suspect a link with contaminated, cut-price cigarettes manufactured on nearby Grand Basin Indian<br />

Reserve led by the Badger, the multimillionaire kingpin of the illicit Native tobacco trade. First-responders<br />

from the local fire department become the epidemic’s next victims, and when Zol confronts the Badger,<br />

he is rebuffed by the leader’s lust for blood, money, and ancient artifacts. High-level government<br />

authorities, cowed by the weight of Native influence, order Zol to shut down his investigation. As the<br />

Badger’s contaminated tobacco spreads across the country, he stalks Zol’s family and executes witness<br />

after witness. Can Zol dig deep enough to find a creative solution before it’s too late?<br />

VIENNA NOCTURNE<br />

SHOTWELL, VIVIEN<br />

Vienna Nocturne tells the story of the turbulent life and brilliantly successful career of young British opera<br />

singer Anna Storace, a child prodigy who is taken by her parents to Italy at age thirteen to advance her<br />

career. In love with life and wildly ambitious, Anna wants everything--to be famous, to be loved--and this<br />

leads her to make some fatal choices. We watch her turn from a carefree young girl to a passionate<br />

young woman, and it is during this transformation that her affair with Mozart blossoms. The story of their<br />

in Loving Frank and Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet. Written in melodious prose by a young<br />

author studying opera at Yale, Vienna Nocturne is dramatic story of a woman’s battle to find love and<br />

fame in an 18th-century world that controls and limits her at every turn.<br />

W IS FOR WASTED<br />

GRAFTON, SUE<br />

The first was a local PI of suspect reputation. He’d been gunned down near the beach at Santa Teresa. It<br />

looked like a robbery gone bad. The other was on the beach six weeks later. He’d been sleeping rough.<br />

Probably homeless. No identification. A slip of paper with Millhone’s name and number was in his pants<br />

pocket. The coroner asked her to come to the morgue to see if she could ID him. Two seemingly<br />

unrelated deaths, one a murder, the other apparently of natural causes. But as Kinsey digs deeper into<br />

the mystery of the John Doe, some very strange linkages begin to emerge. And before long at least one<br />

aspect is solved as Kinsey literally finds the key to his identity. “And just like that,” she says, “the lid to<br />

Pandora’s box flew open. It would take me another day before I understood how many imps had been<br />

freed, but for the moment, I was inordinately pleased with myself.” In this multilayered tale, the surfaces<br />

seem clear, but the underpinnings are full of betrayals, misunderstandings, and outright murderous fraud.<br />

And Kinsey, through no fault of her own, is thoroughly compromised.<br />

WE ARE WATER<br />

LAMB, WALLY<br />

In middle age, Anna Oh—wife, mother, outsider artist—has shaken her family to its core. After twentyseven<br />

years of marriage and three children, Anna has fallen in love with Vivica, the wealthy, cultured,<br />

confident Manhattan art dealer who orchestrated her professional success. Anna and Viveca plan to wed<br />

in the Oh family’s hometown of Three Rivers in Connecticut, where gay marriage has recently been<br />

legalized. But the impending wedding provokes some very mixed reactions and opens a Pandora’s Box of<br />

toxic secrets—dark and painful truths that have festered below the surface of the Ohs’ lives. We Are<br />

Water is an intricate and layered portrait of marriage, family, and the inexorable need for understanding<br />

and connection, told in the alternating voices of the Ohs—nonconformist Annie; her ex-husband, Orion, a<br />

psychologist; Ariane, the do-gooder daughter, and her twin, Andrew, the rebellious only son; and freespirited<br />

Marissa, the youngest Oh. Set in New England and New York during the first years of the Obama<br />

presidency, it is also a portrait of modern America, exploring issues of class, changing social mores, the<br />

legacy of racial violence, and the nature of creativity and art.<br />

BODDEN, MARLEN SUYAPA<br />

When Cornelius Allen gives his daughter Clarissa’s hand in marriage, he presents her with a wedding gift:<br />

the young slave she grew up with, Sarah. Sarah is also Allen’s daughter and Clarissa’s sister, a product<br />

of his longtime relationship with his house slave, Emmeline. When Clarissa’s husband suspects that their<br />

newborn son is illegitimate, Clarissa and Sarah are sent back to her parents, Cornelius and Theodora, in<br />

shame, setting in motion a series of events that will destroy this once powerful family. Told through<br />

alternating viewpoints of Sarah and Theodora Allen, Cornelius’ wife, The Wedding Gift is a stunning novel<br />

that shows where the complicated and compelling bonds and relationships between women explored in<br />

novels like The Help and The Secret Life of Bees began. It is an intimate portrait that shows where this<br />

particular American story and dynamic all started and will leave readers breathless.<br />

case to discover that she may not have acted alone . . . Corinne Woodrow was fifteen when she was<br />

convicted of murdering one of her classmates on a summer’s evening in 1984, a year when the teenagers<br />

parents. Twenty years later, new forensic evidence suggests that Corinne didn’t act alone. Private<br />

investigator Sean Ward — whose promising career as a detective with the Metropolitan Police was cut<br />

short by a teenage gangster with a gun — reopens the case, and discovers a town full of secrets, and a<br />

community that has always looked after its own.<br />

chart-topping rock band has just self-destructed in a recording studio fistfight. Ronnie makes a bold<br />

decision—return home to Texas and reinvent himself as a solo act. Enter Dan Campbell, Ronnie’s cousin,<br />

who recruits Ronnie for a new kind of venture. Dan, who always had a penchant for wild schemes, wants<br />

to televise a Texas Hold ’Em tournament…and Ronnie could never say no to his cousin Dan. As celebrity<br />

spokesman for the poker tournament, Ronnie soon finds himself recruiting world-class gamblers in illegal<br />

start to get weird—hidden cameras, secret high-stakes side-bets, a visit from the FBI—it seems that<br />

Dan’s poker tournament may be a façade for something much bigger and much more dangerous. Ronnie<br />

begins to wonder if he will end up with the girl of his dreams in the Country Music Hall of Fame, or broke<br />

and lonely in some prison cell. What are the chances?<br />

to discover the killer, but is unexpectedly restrained from investigation. At the same moment, a fellow<br />

soldier has also entered the Jesuit Novice House, bringing Charles’s worst battlefield secret back to haunt<br />

him. And when another Jesuit disappears from the college of Louis le Grand and Charles himself is<br />

attacked, he begins to wonder whether there might be something more sinister afoot. All signs point to<br />

someone targeting Jesuits—and not even an ex-soldier like Charles may be able to escape...<br />

out to be a generous serving of cold-blooded murder. And the clever culprit is just getting cooking. When<br />

a colleague—a woman who resembles Goldy—is stabbed, and Goldy is attacked outside her house, it<br />

becomes clear that the popular caterer is the main course on a killer menu. With time running out, Goldy<br />

must roll up her sleeves, sharpen her knives, and make a meal out of a devious murderer, before that<br />

killer can serve her up cold.<br />

WILD JUSTICE<br />

ARMSTRONG, KELLEY<br />

Protect the innocent. If there is any one principle that drives hitwoman Nadia Stafford it’s this. When she<br />

was 13 she failed to protect her older cousin Amy from being raped and murdered. As Wild Justice opens,<br />

she fails again, disastrously, when she botches a hit on a man who’s been beating his wife. Before she’s<br />

had a chance to fix things, the wife is murdered and Nadia plunges into despair. To help her find<br />

equilibrium again, her mentor, Jack, brings her a gift: the location and new identity of the serial predator<br />

who killed her cousin. Vengeance, justice? With the predator in her sights, nothing seems more right,<br />

more straightforward, more simple. But fierce as Nadia is, she is shaken to the core by what she<br />

discovers about the real events of her past. The wounds inscribed on her soul during the long night when<br />

her cousin was killed have shaped her, and justice is wild indeed.<br />

WILL<br />

NEILSON, SHAN<br />

Will ranges from straightforward East Coast depictions of alcoholism and frustrated farming told in dense,<br />

lyric prose, to experimental works that play overtly with language and form. In Will, a boy is beaten by his<br />

father; another father cares for his epileptic son; an anesthetist addicted to sevoflurane ponders the works<br />

of Michael Jackson; Vladimir Nabokov takes a writer-in-residence position at Memorial University of<br />

Newfoundland; and World War I poet John McCrae dies. And yes, there is a hockey story.<br />

WINDS OF SALEM<br />

DE LA CRUZ, MELISSA<br />

Freya Beauchamp is trapped in 1692, in Salem of all places, with no recollection of her past. A powerful<br />

enemy spell has sent her spiraling away so that she is separated by centuries from her mother, Joanna,<br />

and sister, Ingrid. This is not good news for a twenty-first-century witch. Not to mention the immediate<br />

threat she faces from the wealthy and influential Putnam family. When little Annie Putnam is one of the<br />

first to make accusations of witchcraft, her landowner father jumps at the opportunity to consolidate his<br />

power and expand his holdings in Puritan Salem Town. If Freya is caught using magic, she will be forced<br />

to relive the witch trials, and this time, even her immortality is in question. Meanwhile, twenty-first-century<br />

North Hampton has its own snares. Joanna and Norm consult the Oracle for advice, and Freddie and his<br />

pixie allies search for a missing totem that could reopen the passages of time and help bring his sister<br />

home. When Ingrid bumps into an old flame, she finds that her new love for Detective Matt Noble is in<br />

doubt.<br />

THE WOMAN WHO LOST HER SOUL<br />

SHACOCHIS, BOB<br />

When humanitarian lawyer Tom Harrington travels to Haiti to investigate the murder of a beautiful and<br />

seductive photojournalist, he is confronted with a dangerous landscape riddled with poverty, corruption,<br />

and voodoo. It’s the late 1990s, a time of brutal guerrilla warfare and civilian kidnappings, and everyone<br />

has secrets. The journalist, whom he knew years before as Jackie Scott, had a bigger investment in Haiti<br />

than it seemed, and to make sense of her death, Tom must plunge back into a thorny past and his<br />

complicated ties to both Jackie and Eville Burnette, a member of Special Forces who has been assigned<br />

to protect her. From the violent, bandit-dominated terrain of World War II Dubrovnik to the exquisitely<br />

rendered Istanbul in the 1980s, Shacochis brandishes Jackie’s shadowy family history with daring agility.<br />

Caught between her first love and the unsavory attentions of her father—an elite spy and quintessential<br />

Cold War warrior pressuring his daughter to follow in his footsteps—seventeen-year-old Jackie hatches a<br />

desperate escape plan that puts her on course to becoming the soulless woman Tom equally feared and<br />

desired.<br />

THE WOMAN WHO WOULDN’T DIE<br />

COTTERRILL, COLIN<br />

In a small Lao village, a very strange thing has happened. A woman was shot and killed in her bed during<br />

a burglary; she was given a funeral and everyone in the village saw her body burned. Then, three days<br />

later, she was back in her house as if she'd never been dead at all. But now she's clairvoyant, and can<br />

speak to the dead. That's why the long-dead brother of a Lao general has enlisted her to help his brother<br />

uncover his remains, which have been lost at the bottom of a river for many years. Lao national coroner<br />

Dr. Siri Paiboun and his wife, Madame Daeng, are sent along to supervise the excavation. It could be a<br />

kind of relaxing vacation for them, maybe, except Siri is obsessed with the pretty undead medium's<br />

special abilities, and Madame Daeng might be a little jealous. She doesn't trust the woman for some<br />

reason─is her hunch right? What is the group really digging for at the bottom of this remote river on the<br />

Thai border? What war secrets are being covered up?<br />

WORST. PERSON. EVER.<br />

COUPLAND, DOUGLAS<br />

Worst. Person. Ever. is a deeply unworthy book about a dreadful human being with absolutely no<br />

redeeming social value. Raymond Gunt, in the words of the author, "is a living, walking, talking, hot<br />

steaming pile of pure id." He's a B-unit cameraman who enters an amusing downward failure spiral that<br />

takes him from London to Los Angeles and then on to an obscure island in the Pacific where a major<br />

American TV network is shooting a Survivor-style reality show. Along the way, Gunt suffers multiple<br />

comas and unjust imprisonment, is forced to reenact the "Angry Dance" from the movie Billy Elliot and<br />

finds himself at the centre of a nuclear war.<br />

THE WRONG GIRL<br />

RYAN, HANK PHILLIPPI<br />

Does a respected adoption agency have a frightening secret? Tipped off by a determined ex-colleague on<br />

a desperate quest to find her birth mother, Boston newspaper reporter Jane Ryland begins to suspect that<br />

the agency is engaging in the ultimate betrayal—reuniting birth parents with the wrong children. For<br />

detective Jake Brogan and his partner, a young woman’s brutal murder seems a sadly predictable case of<br />

domestic violence, one that results in two toddlers being shuttled into the foster care system. Then Jake<br />

finds an empty cradle at the murder scene. Where is the baby who should have been sleeping there?<br />

Jane and Jake are soon on a trail full of twists and turns that takes them deep into the heart of a foster<br />

care system in crisis and threatens to blow the lid off an adoption agency scandal. When the threatening<br />

phone calls start, Jane knows she is on the right track…<br />

THE WRONG QUARRY<br />

COLLINS, MAX ALLAN<br />

Quarry doesn't kill just anybody these days. He restricts himself to targeting other hitmen, availing his<br />

marked-for-death clients of two services: eliminating the killers sent after them, and finding out who hired<br />

them…and then removing that problem as well. So far he's rid of the world of nobody who would be<br />

missed. But this time he finds himself zeroing in on the grieving family of a missing cheerleader. Does the<br />

hitman's hitman have the wrong quarry in his sights?<br />

YELLOW EYES OF CROCODILES<br />

PANCOL, KATHERINE<br />

"Le Divorce" meets "The Elegance of the Hedgehog" in this hilariously entertaining mega-bestseller from<br />

France When her chronically unemployed husband runs off to start a crocodile farm in Kenya with his<br />

mistress, Josephine Cortes is left in an unhappy state of affairs. The mother of two--confident, beautiful<br />

teenage Hortense and shy, babyish Zoe--is forced to maintain a stable family life while making ends meet<br />

on her meager salary as a medieval history scholar. Meanwhile, Josephine's charismatic sister Iris seems<br />

to have it all--a wealthy husband, gorgeous looks, and a tres chic Paris address--but she dreams of<br />

bringing meaning back into her life. When Iris charms a famous publisher into offering her a lucrative deal<br />

for a twelfth-century romance, she offers her sister a deal of her own: Josephine will write the novel and<br />

pocket all the proceeds, but the book will be published under Iris's name. All is well--that is, until the book<br />

becomes the literary sensation of the season.<br />

RETZLAFF, MANDY<br />

On an early summer morning in 2001, Mandy Retzlaff received the phone call that she and her family had<br />

been dreading. Her farmhouse in northern Zimbabwe was being decimated at the hands of an angry mob<br />

of Robert Mugabe’s war veterans, who had been tasked with driving white farmers from their homes. In<br />

just a few short days, forty-five of Mandy’s neighbours narrowly escaped with their lives and decided to<br />

leave Zimbabwe behind. These families would forge a new life overseas, safe from the recriminations of<br />

Mugabe’s warmongers—yet, as they fled, they left so much behind, not least the beloved pets and farm<br />

animals to which they had devoted their lives. Mandy knew that her life, and that of her family, had<br />

changed forever. As her friend fled Zimbabwe, she had only oneparting request. “We need your help,” she<br />

said. “It’s our horses. Something has got to be done about our horses.” It was in this moment that Mandy,<br />

along with her husband, Pat, made the decision not to shrink into fear but to reach out and help. Over the<br />

following months, they rescued a group of 104 horses from the violence of the home invasions and, in<br />

one case, quite literally from the jaws of lions.<br />

1914: FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT<br />

MALLINSON, ALLAN<br />

One of Britain's foremost military historians has written a significant new history of the origins -- and the<br />

opening first few weeks fighting -- of what would become known as 'the war to end all wars'. Intensely<br />

researched and convincingly argued, Allan Mallinson explores and explains the grand strategic shift that<br />

occurred in the century before the war, the British Army's regeneration after its drubbings in its fight<br />

against the Boer, its almost calamitous experience of the first twenty days' fighting in Flanders, and the<br />

point at which the British Expeditionary Force -- the 'Old Contemptibles' -- took up the pick and the spade<br />

in the middle of September 1914, changing the war from one of movement into the now familiar image of<br />

the trenches and the coming of the Territorials, Kitchener's 'Pals', and ultimately the conscripts -- and of<br />

course the poets. And with them, a sense of pity and of futility.<br />

40 CHANCES<br />

BUFFETT, HOWARD<br />

Legendary investor Warren Buffett posed this challenge to his son in 2006, when he announced he was<br />

leaving the bulk of his fortune to philanthropy. Howard G. Buffett set out to help the most vulnerable<br />

people on earth–nearly a billion individuals who lack basic food security. And Howard has given himself a<br />

deadline: 40 years to put more than $3 billion to work on this challenge. All of us have about 40 chances<br />

to make our mark in the world. This is a lesson Howard learned through his passion for farming. All<br />

farmers can expect to have about 40 growing seasons, giving them just 40 chances to improve on every<br />

harvest. This applies to all of us, however, because we all have about 40 productive years to make our<br />

personal marks in the world, whatever our passions may be. 40 Chances: Finding Hope in a Hungry<br />

World is a new book that captures Howard’s journey. Beginning with his love for farming, we join him<br />

around the world as he seeks out new approaches to ease the suffering of so many. It is told in a unique<br />

format: 40 stories that will provide readers a compelling look at Howard’s lessons learned, ranging from<br />

his own backyard to some of the most difficult and dangerous places on Earth.<br />

STRACHAN, AL<br />

Whether wearing his Edmonton oil-drop, the black and silver colours of L.A., or the famous Rangers<br />

sweater from New York, all hockey fans agree that Wayne Gretzky was the best hockey player of all time.<br />

His point totals, his puck control, and the manner in which he conducted himself both on and off the ice<br />

reflected the very best of the game. You can't talk about Gretzky without talking about his records and<br />

achievements: 50 goals in just 39 games, 9 Hart Trophies, 10 Art Ross Trophies, 4 Stanley Cups, 215<br />

points in a single season, and, of course, retiring with 2856 points. Each record is a remarkable<br />

achievement by the game's most remarkable player, and each will be broken down in this book.<br />

Published with Wayne Gretzky's approval and written with his cooperation, this is the Gretzky biography<br />

that his fans have so anxiously awaited.<br />

ADHD ACCORDING TO ZOE<br />

KESSLER, ZOE<br />

Like many women with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), journalist and popular blogger Zoë<br />

Kessler was diagnosed late in life—well into adulthood, in fact. But instead of seeing this label as a<br />

burden to bear, Kessler decided to use it to gain a better understanding of herself, and to connect with<br />

others through her writing. In this unique and engaging memoir, Kessler shares her own stories of living<br />

with ADHD in a way that is relatable, but never predictable. Inside, she describes how her impulsive<br />

behavior has affected her love life; how being disorganized once stood in the way of landing a job; and<br />

how inattentiveness has caused certain challenges in her relationships. Kessler also offers key coping<br />

skills based on her experience; skills that you can use to focus your energy, become more organized, and<br />

boost your self-esteem while tapping into creativity and humor. Kessler’s story illustrates how being<br />

ALL GOOD THINGS: FROM PARIS TO TAHITI<br />

TURNBULL, SARAH<br />

Having shared her story in her bestselling memoir, Almost French, Australian writer Sarah Turnbull<br />

seemed to have had more than her fair share of dreams come true. While Sarah went on to carve out an<br />

idyllic life in Paris with her husband, Frederic, there was still one dream she was beginning to fear might<br />

be impossible—starting a family. Then out of the blue an opportunity to embark on another adventure<br />

offered a new beginning—and new hope. Leaving behind life in the world’s most romantic and beautiful<br />

city was never going to be easy. But it helps when your destination is another paradise on earth: Tahiti.<br />

ALL IN<br />

DICKINSON, ARLENE<br />

To be a successful entrepreneur, you don’t just need to know how to run a business. You need to know<br />

how to run your life when the boundary between work and personal time has essentially been erased. But<br />

while there are countless books on setting up a company, there hasn’t ever been a primer on navigating<br />

the unique emotional and personal demands of entrepreneurship. That’s what All In is all about: how to<br />

thrive in the entrepreneurial lifestyle—and how to avoid its pitfalls.<br />

ALL IN: YOU ARE ONE DECISION AWAY FROM A TOTALLY DIFFERENT LIFE<br />

BATTERSON, MARK<br />

The Gospel costs nothing. You can't earn it or buy it. It can only be received as a free gift compliments of<br />

God's grace. It doesn't cost anything, but it demands everything. It demands that we go 'all in,' a term that<br />

simply means placing all that you have into God's hands. Pushing it all in. And that's where we get stuck--<br />

-spiritual no man's land. We're afraid that if we go all in that we might miss out on what this life has to<br />

offer. It's not true. The only thing you'll miss out on is everything God has to offer. And the good news is<br />

this: if you don't hold out on God, God won't hold out on you.<br />

ALL THE SONGS: THE STORY BEHIND EVERY BEATLES RELEASE<br />

MARGOTIN, PHILIPPE<br />

Every album and every song ever released by the Beatles from "Please Please Me" (U.S. 1963) to "The<br />

Long and Winding Road" (U.S. 1970) is dissected, discussed, and analyzed by two music historians in<br />

this lively and fully illustrated work. This first-of-its-kind book draws upon decades of research, as music<br />

historians Margotin and Guesdon recount the circumstances that led to the composition of every song,<br />

the recording process, and the instruments used. Here, we learn that one of John Lennon's favorite<br />

guitars was a 1958 Rickenbacker 325 Capri, which he bought for 100 in 1960 in Hamburg, Germany. We<br />

also learn that "Love Me Do," recorded in Abbey Road Studios in September 1962, took 18 takes to get<br />

right, even though it was one of the first songs John and Paul ever wrote together. And the authors reveal<br />

that when the Beatles performed "I Want to Hold Your Hand" on The Ed Sullivan Show in 1964, John's<br />

microphone wasn't turned on, so viewers heard only Paul singing. The hundreds of photographs<br />

throughout the book include rare black-and-white publicity stills, images of Beatles instruments, and<br />

engaging shots of the musicians in-studio.<br />

AN AMERICAN BRIDE IN KABUL<br />

CHESLER, PHYLLIS<br />

Few westerners will ever be able to understand Muslim or Afghan society unless they are part of a Muslim<br />

family. Twenty years old and in love, Phyllis Chesler, a Jewish-American girl from Brooklyn, embarked on<br />

an adventure that has lasted for more than a half-century. In 1961, when she arrived in Kabul with her<br />

Afghan bridegroom, authorities took away her American passport. Chesler was now the property of her<br />

husband’s family and had no rights of citizenship. Back in Afghanistan, her husband, a wealthy,<br />

westernized foreign college student with dreams of reforming his country, reverted to traditional and tribal<br />

customs. Chesler found herself unexpectedly trapped in a posh polygamous family, with no chance of<br />

escape. She fought against her seclusion and lack of freedom, her Afghan family’s attempts to convert<br />

her from Judaism to Islam, and her husband’s wish to permanently tie her to the country through<br />

childbirth. Drawing upon her personal diaries, Chesler recounts her ordeal, the nature of gender<br />

apartheid—and her longing to explore this beautiful, ancient, and exotic country and culture. Chesler<br />

nearly died there but she managed to get out, returned to her studies in America, and became an author<br />

and an ardent activist for women’s rights throughout the world. An American Bride in Kabul is the story of<br />

how a naïve American girl learned to see the world through eastern as well as western eyes and came to<br />

appreciate Enlightenment values.<br />

AMERICAN MIRROR: THE LIFE AND ART OF NORMAN ROCKWELL<br />

SOLOMON, DEBORAH<br />

Norman Rockwell, as much as Walt Disney or Ronald Reagan, provided America with a mirror of its<br />

dreams and aspirations. As the star illustrator for The Saturday Evening Post for nearly half a century,<br />

Rockwell portrayed a fantasy of civic togetherness, of American decency and good cheer. Or, as Deborah<br />

Solomon writes in her authoritative new biography, he painted “a history of the American people that had<br />

never happened.” Who was Norman Rockwell? Behind the folksy, pipe-smoking façade lay a surprisingly<br />

complex figure—a lonely man all too conscious of his inadequacies. Solomon describes him as an<br />

obsessive personality who wore his shoes too small, washed his paintings with Ivory Soap, and relied on<br />

the redemptive power of storytelling to stave off depression. He wound up in treatment with Erik Erikson,<br />

the influential psychotherapist. American Mirror draws on unpublished papers to explore the relationship<br />

between Rockwell’s anguished creativity and his genius for reflecting American innocence. “The thrill of<br />

his work,” writes Solomon, “is that he was able to use the commercial form of magazine illustration to<br />

thrash out his private obsessions.”<br />

AMY, 27: AMY WINEHOUSE AND THE 27 CLUB<br />

SOUNES, HOWARD<br />

When singer-songwriter Amy Winehouse died tragically on July, 23, 2011, at the age of twenty-seven, she<br />

joined the infamous 27 Club, whose members include Brian Jones, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim<br />

Morrison, and Kurt Cobain. Howard Sounes, author of Fab and Down the Highway, conducted interviews<br />

with more than 180 people, and his research yields new insights into the lives of the members of the 27<br />

Club. Cutting through the record company PR and tabloid gossip to reveal the real Amy Winehouse, and<br />

with unprecedented access to friends and family, including Amy’s ex-husband Blake Fielder-Civil, and her<br />

last boyfriend, Reg Traviss, Sounes reveals striking factors in common among Winehouse and the other<br />

artists who died so young. Amy, 27 will be published to coincide with the second anniversary of her death<br />

and with the lead-up to the twentieth anniversary of the death of Kurt Cobain.<br />

ANSEL ADAMS IN THE CANADIAN ROCKIES<br />

ADAMS, ANSEL<br />

The Sierra Club's twenty-seventh annual outing or "High Trip" was Ansel Adams's first as official<br />

photographer. It was during this expedition to the Canadian Rockies in 1928 that Ansel began to find his<br />

voice as a photographer. Here we discover images of celebrated natural sites including Mount Robson,<br />

Amethyst Lake, Drawbridge Peak, and Bennington Glacier that foreshadow the majestic mountain vistas<br />

for which Adams would become renowned. A fine chronicle of one of Ansel Adams's earliest major<br />

photographic expeditions, and the only one he ever made outside of the United States, this book also<br />

serves as a record of Ansel's emerging style during these crucial years in his artistic development.<br />

AN APPETITE FOR WONDER<br />

DAWKINS, RICHARD<br />

Born to parents who were enthusiastic naturalists, and linked through his wider family to a clutch of<br />

accomplished scientists, Richard Dawkins was bound to have biology in his genes. But what were the<br />

influences that shaped his life and intellectual development? In An Appetite for Wonder we join him on a<br />

personal journey back to an enchanting childhood in colonial Africa. There the exotic natural world was<br />

his constant companion. Boarding school in England aged 8, and later, public school at Oundle introduce<br />

him, and the reader, to strange rules and eccentric school masters vividly described with both humorous<br />

affection and some reservation. An initial fervent attachment to Church of England religion soon gives way<br />

to disaffection and, later, teenage rebellion. Oxford, however, is the catalyst to his life. Vigorous debate in<br />

the dynamic Zoology Department unleashes his innate intellectual curiosity; and inspirational mentors<br />

together with his own creative thinking ignite the spark that results in his radical and new vision of<br />

Darwinism, The Selfish Gene. From innocent child to charismatic world-famous scientist, Richard<br />

Dawkins paints a colourful, richly-textured canvas of his early life.<br />

Despite all of our best intentions, communication is still a challenge for most of us. How do we say what<br />

we mean in a way that the other person can really hear? How can we learn to listen with compassion and<br />

understanding? Why do people communicate so differently and how can we reach across our differences<br />

to strengthen our relationships? Using examples from his own experience working with couples, families,<br />

workplace colleagues, and international conflicts, celebrated spiritual leader Thich Nhat Hanh reveals five<br />

steps to truly mindful communication.<br />

THE ART OF RUBE GOLDBERG<br />

GOLDBERG, RUBE<br />

Not many of us make it into the dictionary as an adjective. But then again, Rube Goldberg was no<br />

ordinary noun. He was a cartoonist, humorist, sculptor, author, engineer, and inventor, and in a 72-year<br />

career he wrote and illustrated nearly 50,000 cartoons. Goldberg (1883–1970) was the most famous<br />

cartoonist of his time, best known for his comical inventions, which were syndicated in daily newspapers<br />

throughout the world. Author Jennifer George celebrates all aspects of her grandfather’s career, from his<br />

very first published drawings in his high school newspaper and college yearbook to his iconic inventions,<br />

his comic strips and advertising work, and his later sculpture and Pulitzer Prize–winning political cartoons.<br />

Also included are essays by noted comics historians, rare photographs, letters, memorabilia, and patents,<br />

many reproduced here for the first time. Brilliantly designed and packaged to capture the inventiveness of<br />

Rube Goldberg’s work, The Art of Rube Goldberg is a coffee table book the whole family can enjoy.<br />

ASSASSINATION OF THE ARCHDUKE<br />

KING, GREG<br />

Drawing on unpublished letters and rare primary sources, King and Woolmans tell the true story behind<br />

the tragic romance and brutal assassination that sparked World War I In the summer of 1914, three great<br />

empires dominated Europe: Germany, Russia, and Austria-Hungary. Four years later all had vanished in<br />

the chaos of World War I. One event precipitated the conflict, and at its hear was a tragic love story. When<br />

Austrian heir Archduke Franz Ferdinand married for love against the wishes of the emperor, he and his<br />

wife Sophie were humiliated and shunned, yet they remained devoted to each other and to their children.<br />

The two bullets fired in Sarajevo not only ended their love story, but also led to war and a century of<br />

conflict. Set against a backdrop of glittering privilege, "The Assassination of the Archduke" combines royal<br />

history, touching romance, and political murder in a moving portrait of the end of an era. One hundred<br />

years after the event, it offers the startling truth behind the Sarajevo assassinations, including Serbian<br />

complicity and examines rumors of conspiracy and official negligence. Events in Sarajevo also doomed<br />

the couple's children to lives of loss, exile, and the horrors of Nazi concentration camps, their plight<br />

echoing the horrors unleashed by their parents' deaths. Challenging a century of myth, "The<br />

Assassination of the Archduke" resonates as a very human story of love destroyed by murder, revolution,<br />

and war.<br />

AN ATHEIST'S HISTORY OF BELIEF<br />

KNEALE, MATTHEW<br />

What first prompted prehistoric man, sheltering in the shadows of deep caves, to call upon the realm of<br />

the spirits? And why has belief thrived since, shaping millennia of civilizations, thousands of generations<br />

of shamans, pharaohs, Aztec priests and Mayan rulers, Jews, Buddhists, Christians and Scientologists?<br />

As our dreams and nightmares have changed over the millennia, so have our beliefs. The gods we<br />

created have evolved and mutated with us through a narrative fraught with human sacrifice, political<br />

upheaval and bloody wars. Belief was man’s most epic labour of invention. It has been our closest<br />

companion, and has followed mankind across the continents and through history.<br />

THE AUDUBON BIRDHOUSE BOOK<br />

BARKER, MARGARET<br />

Produced in association with the National Audubon Society, Audubon Birdhouse Book explains how to<br />

build and place functional DIY bird homes that are safe and appropriate for more than 20 classic North<br />

American species, from wrens to raptors. Each of the easy-to-build boxes and shelves within is<br />

accompanied by cut lists, specially created line diagrams, and step-by-step photography, making the<br />

projects accessible to those with even the most rudimentary woodworking skills. In addition, this practical<br />

and beautifully presented guide is packed with color photography and information about the bird species<br />

covered—including titmice, chickadees, nuthatches, phoebes, swallows, waterfowl, and even kestrels and<br />

owls—to help the reader properly place and maintain the homes to attract birds. And because these<br />

projects are the product of years of experience and field-testing, you can be sure you’re getting the best<br />

advice regarding proper design, safe construction materials, and correct home placement to mitigate<br />

exposure to elements, pests, and predators. Finally, beyond the birdhouses, you’ll find out how you can<br />

contribute to the larger birding community and even enhance your birding experience with the aid of new<br />

technologies.<br />

Dawson City, and then moved to Toronto to live in Rosedale with her family in the 1910s. Over the course<br />

of her life, she saw the city change from one dominated by the English and Scotish immigrants, horsedrawn<br />

buggies, to a multicultural city where the car reigned supreme. But Winnie wasn't able to keep up<br />

with the times: she remained a perpetual debutante, and eventually became a bankrupt, unable to cope<br />

with the demands of her changing times.<br />

AVERAGE IS OVER<br />

COWEN, TYLER<br />

The widening gap between rich and poor means dealing with one big, uncomfortable truth: If you’re not at<br />

the top, you’re at the bottom. The global labor market is changing radically thanks to growth at the high<br />

end—and the low. About three quarters of the jobs created in the United States since the great recession<br />

pay only a bit more than minimum wage. Still, the United States has more millionaires and billionaires<br />

than any country ever, and we continue to mint them. In this eye-opening book, renowned economist and<br />

bestselling author Tyler Cowen explains that phenomenon: High earners are taking ever more advantage<br />

of machine intelligence in data analysis and achieving ever-better results. Meanwhile, low earners who<br />

haven’t committed to learning, to making the most of new technologies, have poor prospects. Nearly<br />

every business sector relies less and less on manual labor, and this fact is forever changing the world of<br />

work and wages. A steady, secure life somewhere in the middle—average—is over.<br />

THE BAR CHEF<br />

SOLARIK, FRANKIE<br />

BarChef is a cocktail lounge on Queen Street West in Toronto. Dedicated to the art and science of the<br />

cocktail, its beauty lies in the colours and details behind the bar—from apothecary jars filled with bitters<br />

and syrups to bell jars and 100-pound blocks of ice. Owner Frankie Solarik holds court in his fedora,<br />

chipping ice, talking to patrons (a mix of rockers, hipsters, business people, locals and celebrities) and<br />

enjoying his craft thoroughly. Solarik is a leading figure of the global cocktail renaissance. His book, The<br />

Bar Chef, explores the importance of engaging all the senses when creating modernist cocktails. Depth<br />

and balance—the ideas behind great wines, and great food and wine pairings—are vital to a magnificent<br />

drink. Chapters detail the elements of the set-up, the art and craft of mixology and, of course, include<br />

recipes for syrups, infusions, bitters and the cocktails themselves. A chapter for non-alcoholic drinks<br />

rounds out the book.<br />

BEATRIX POTTER'S GARDENING LIFE<br />

MCDOWELL, MARTA<br />

There aren’t many books more beloved than The Tale of Peter Rabbit and even fewer authors as iconic<br />

as Beatrix Potter. More than 150 million copies of her books have sold worldwide and interest in her work<br />

and life remains high. And her characters—Peter Rabbit, Jemima Puddle Duck, and all the rest—exist in<br />

a charmed world filled with flowers and gardens. Beatrix Potter’s Gardening Life is the first book to<br />

explore the origins of Beatrix Potter’s love of gardening and plants and show how this passion came to be<br />

reflected in her work. The book begins with a gardener’s biography, highlighting the key moments and<br />

places throughout her life that helped define her, including her home Hill Top Farm in England's Lake<br />

District. Next, the reader follows Beatrix Potter through a year in her garden, with a season-by-season<br />

overview of what is blooming that truly brings her gardens alive. The book culminates in a traveler’s<br />

guide, with information on how and where to visit Potter’s gardens today.<br />

Ludwig van Beethoven remains one of the world’s best loved and most influential composers, the creator<br />

of such magisterial works as the 'Eroica,' the famous Fifth Symphony, and the 'Emperor' Piano Concerto,<br />

yet also smaller, more intimate pieces like the 'Moonlight' Sonata, and 'Für Elise.' But few know much of<br />

Beethoven’s tumultuous personal life, beyond the fact that he is the composer who became deaf.<br />

Beethoven scholar John Suchet has had a lifelong passion for the man and his music. In this book, he<br />

illuminates Beethoven’s difficult childhood, his struggle to find a wife, his ungovernable temper, his<br />

emotional volatility, his tendency to push away those trying to help him, and in middle age his obsessive<br />

compulsion to control his nephew’s life. In this detailed and absorbing biography, Suchet argues that it is<br />

perhaps more true of Beethoven than of any other composer, that if you know what was going on in his<br />

life, you listen to his music through different ears.<br />

BEING UNCLE CHARLIE<br />

DEASY, BOB<br />

Being Uncle Charlie is the intimate and graphic story of one Canadian undercover cop who spent two<br />

decades infiltrating organized crime. From Russian and Italian mafias to notorious biker gangs, Bob<br />

Deasy gained access to and the acceptance of criminals who most cops in any country would never<br />

encounter or arrest, let alone befriend. Bob Deasy had an illustrious 25-year career undercover with the<br />

Ontario Provincial Police. Using little more than his quick wits, natural confidence and a deft mental<br />

equilibrium that allowed him to stay three chess moves ahead of his quarry, Deasy was the secret<br />

weapon behind some of the signature crime busts in Canadian history. Infiltrating the Outlaws Motorcycle<br />

Club and the Russian and Italian mobs, he also single-handedly set up international import-export<br />

businesses, faked contract hit jobs and executed one of the largest drug buys in OPP history. He also<br />

perfected the now controversial "Mr. Big" technique of posing as a crime kingpin to solicit unwitting<br />

confessions from suspects in long-dormant cold murder cases--a tactic he defends as practised, and with<br />

which he enjoyed a 100% success rate.<br />

BEST PRACTICES<br />

DOWBIGGIN, BRUCE<br />

Players consider the Vancouver Canucks to be one of the best teams to play for in the NHL. By creating a<br />

player-friendly environment, Vancouver GM Mike Gillis had been able to acquire top-tier talent at less<br />

than market value. In Best Practices, sportswriter Bruce Dowbiggin explains how owners and<br />

management have teamed up to make the Canucks one of the most desirable locations in the NHL, and<br />

how that player-first attitude has led to success on the ice. From their new, state-of-the-art dressing room,<br />

personal nutritionists, skills experts, sleep specialists, and world-class medical team, Gillis has hired the<br />

best team of off-ice personnel in the league. As well, a team-first philosophy, focused on community<br />

involvement and mutual respect for everyone on the team, has made the Canucks one of the most<br />

welcoming teams in the league. Gillis's focus on the minutiae, the small details that make for happy<br />

players, has led to on-ice success and caused other teams to take notice and adopt some of the<br />

Canuck's philosophy as their own.<br />

BETWEEN THE PIPES<br />

DRUZIN, RANDI<br />

Some NHL goalies are great and others are intriguing, but a dozen of them are legends because they're<br />

both. In Between the Pipes, Randi Druzin profiles these athletes, revealing the traits that make each one<br />

unique. Gump Worsley defied the laws of biomechanics by being nimble despite having a cabbageshaped<br />

body. He was also one of the funniest men ever to start in goal. Glenn Hall used to wrestle with a<br />

trainer in the dressing room before games and Jacques Plante refused to stay at a particular Toronto<br />

hotel. Despite their quirks, these 12 goalies are among the best the game has ever seen. With wit and<br />

verve, Druzin paints unforgettable portraits of these masked mavericks.<br />

BIRDS AND PEOPLE<br />

COCKER, MARK<br />

Part natural history and part cultural study, this book describes and maps the entire spectrum of human<br />

engagements with birds, drawing in themes of history, literature, art, cuisine, language, lore, politics, and<br />

the environment. Vast in both scope and scale, it draws upon Mark Cocker's 40 years of observing and<br />

thinking about birds to celebrate this relationship. The book is as important for its visual riches as it is for<br />

its groundbreaking content, as one of Europe's best wildlife photographers has traveled in 39 countries on<br />

seven continents to produce a breathtaking and unique collection of photographs. The author solicited<br />

contributions from people worldwide, and personal anecdotes and stories have come from more than 600<br />

individuals of 81 different nationalities, ranging from university academics to Mongolian eagle hunters,<br />

and from Amerindian shamans to highly celebrated writers. The sheer multitude of voices in this global<br />

chorus means that it is both a source book on why we cherish birds and a powerful testament to their<br />

importance for all humanity.<br />

THE BITE IN THE APPLE<br />

BRENNAN, CHRISANN<br />

Steve Jobs was a remarkable man who wanted to unify the world through technology. For him, the point<br />

was to set people free with tools to explore their own unique creativity. Chrisann Brennan knows this<br />

better than anyone. She met him in high school, at a time when Jobs was passionately aware that there<br />

was something much bigger to be had out of life, and that new kinds of revelations were within reach. The<br />

Bite in the Apple is the very human tale of Jobs’s ascent and the toll it took, told from the author’s unique<br />

perspective as his first girlfriend, co-parent, friend, and—like many others—object of his cruelty. Brennan<br />

writes with depth and breadth, and she doesn’t buy into all the hype. She talks with passion about an<br />

idealistic young man who was driven to change the world, about a young father who denied his own child,<br />

and about a man who mistook power for love. Chrisann Brennan’s intimate memoir provides the reader<br />

with a human dimension to Jobs’ myth. Finally, a book that reveals the real Steve Jobs.<br />

BLACK SABBATH: SYMPTOM OF THE UNIVERSE<br />

WALL, MICK<br />

Way back in the mists of time, in the days when rock giants walked the earth, the name Ozzy Osbourne<br />

was synonymous with subversive and dark. Back then, Ozzy was the singer in Black Sabbath, and they<br />

meant business. In an era when it seemed possible to measure a band's musical prowess by how 'heavy'<br />

they were, they didn't come any weightier than Black Sabbath. This is the definitive account of the band.<br />

BLOOD<br />

HILL, LAWRENCE<br />

Blood runs red through every person’s arteries and fulfills the same functions in every human being.<br />

However, as much as the study and use of blood has helped advance our understanding of human<br />

biology, its cultural and social representations have divided us perennially. Blood pulses through religions,<br />

literature, and the visual arts, and every time it pools or spills, we learn a little more about what brings<br />

human beings together and what divides them. The perceptions of difference in our blood have defined<br />

and separated people on the basis of gender, race, and nation. Perceptions about the history and purity<br />

of one’s blood have spawned rules about who gets to belong to a family or cultural group, who enjoys the<br />

rights of citizenship and nationality, what privileges one can expect to be granted or denied.<br />

organizing reader meet-ups in cities all over the world. By 2008, the devotion of the self-appointed<br />

Jezzies reached such a fever pitch that the New York Times ran a feature story about them and parody<br />

blogs and copycat websites began popping up right and left. With contributions from the writers and<br />

creatives who give the site its distinctive tone and broad influence, THE BOOK OF JEZEBEL is an<br />

encyclopedia of everything important to the modern woman. Running the gamut from Abzug, Bella and<br />

Baby-sitters Club, The to Xena, Yogurt, and Zits, and filled with entertaining sidebars and arresting<br />

THE DOGS OF CHRISTMAS<br />

CAMERON, W. BRUCE<br />

The United States has been “at war” for more than a decade. Yet as war has become normalized, a<br />

yawning gap has opened between America’s soldiers and the society in whose name they fight. For<br />

ordinary citizens, as former secretary of defense Robert Gates has acknowledged, armed conflict has<br />

become an “abstraction” and military service “something for other people to do.” In Breach of Trust,<br />

bestselling author Andrew Bacevich takes stock of the separation between Americans and their military,<br />

tracing its origins to the Vietnam era and exploring its pernicious implications: a nation with an abiding<br />

appetite for war waged at enormous expense by a standing army demonstrably unable to achieve victory.<br />

Among the collateral casualties are values once considered central to democratic practice, including the<br />

principle that responsibility for defending the country should rest with its citizens. Citing figures as diverse<br />

as the martyr-theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer and the marine-turned-anti-warrior Smedley Butler, Breach<br />

of Trust summons Americans to restore that principle.<br />

THE BULLY PULPIT<br />

GOODWIN, DORIS KEARNS<br />

After Presidents Franklin D. Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln, Doris Kearns Goodwin wields her magic on<br />

another larger-than-life president, and another momentous and raucous American time period as she<br />

brings Theodore Roosevelt, the muckraking journalists, and the Progressive Era to life. As she focused on<br />

the relationship between Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt and Lincoln and his Team, Goodwin describes<br />

the broken friendship between Teddy Roosevelt and his chosen successor, William Howard Taft. With the<br />

help of the “muckraking” press—including legendary journalists Ida Tarbell, Lincoln Steffens, William Allen<br />

White, and editor Sam McClure—Roosevelt had wielded the Bully Pulpit to challenge and triumph over<br />

abusive monopolies, political bosses, and corrupting money brokers. Roosevelt led a revolution that he<br />

bequeathed to Taft only to see it compromised as Taft surrendered to money men and big business. The<br />

rupture between the two led Roosevelt to run against Taft for president, an ultimately futile race that<br />

resulted in the election of Democrat Woodrow Wilson and the diminishment of Theodore Roosevelt’s<br />

progressive wing of the Republican Party.<br />

CHURCHILL’S BOMB<br />

FARMELO, GRAHAM<br />

Perhaps no scientific breakthrough has shaped the course of human history as much as the harnessing<br />

of the atom. Yet the twentieth century might have turned out entirely differently had this powerful<br />

technology stayed under the control of Great Britain, whose scientists spearheaded the Allies’ nuclear<br />

arms program at the outset of World War II. As award-winning science historian Graham Farmelo reveals<br />

in Churchill’s Bomb, Britain’s supposedly visionary leader remained unconvinced of the potentially earthshattering<br />

implications of his physicists’ research. Churchill ultimately shared Britain’s nuclear secrets<br />

with—and ceded its initiative to—America, whose successful development and deployment of an atomic<br />

bomb placed the United States in a position of supreme power at the dawn of the Nuclear Age. A<br />

groundbreaking investigation of the twentieth century’s most important scientific discovery, Churchill’s<br />

Bomb reveals the secret history of the weapon that transformed modern geopolitics.<br />

THE CLOWN CAR IN THE COLD MINE<br />

BILTON, NICK<br />

Twitter seems like a perfect start-up success story. In barely six years, a small group of young, ambitious<br />

programmers in Silicon Valley built an $11.5 billion business out of the ashes of a failed podcasting<br />

company. Today Twitter boasts more than 200 million active users and has affected business, politics,<br />

media, and other fields in innumerable ways. Now Nick Bilton of the New York Times takes readers<br />

behind the scenes with a narrative that shows what happened inside Twitter as it grew at exponential<br />

speeds. This is a tale of betrayed friendships and high-stakes power struggles as the four founders—Biz<br />

Stone, Evan Williams, Jack Dorsey, and Noah Glass—went from everyday engineers to wealthy<br />

celebrities, featured on magazine covers, Oprah, The Daily Show, and Time’s list of the world’s most<br />

influential people. Bilton’s exclusive access and exhaustive investigative reporting—drawing on hundreds<br />

of sources, documents, and internal e-mails—have enabled him to write an intimate portrait of fame,<br />

influence, and power. He also captures the zeitgeist and global influence of Twitter, which has been used<br />

to help overthrow governments in the Middle East and disrupt the very fabric of the way people<br />

communicate.<br />

COREYOGRAPHY<br />

FELDMAN, COREY<br />

We all know Corey Feldman from such iconic movies as Stand by Me, Gremlins, The Goonies, and The<br />

Lost Boys. Growing up onscreen, he exuded tough guy edge with a heart of gold. And he lived the life that<br />

went along with his success: he palled around with Michael Jackson, dated Drew Barrymore, and was<br />

best friends with Corey Haim (aka "the other Corey"). But now that two of those close friends—Haim and<br />

Jackson—have passed away, along with others, Corey has decided that it’s time to come clean about his<br />

past, a past that included physical, drug, and sexual abuse, a dysfunctional family from whom he was<br />

emancipated at age fifteen, and a stint in rehab. Coreyography is a tale of survival and redemption.<br />

A COUNTRY BOY<br />

SYMONS, R. D.<br />

R.D. (Robert David) Symons was a Saskatchewan naturalist, and painter, revered for his memoirs, nature<br />

writing, paintings, and illustrations. He was also a rancher and game warden. For the first time in print,<br />

Symons' memoir of his formative years, and his early years in Canada, are captured in the same<br />

compelling style and flair that brought him to the forefront as an author. In A Country Boy, Symons writes<br />

of his remarkable upbringing in Sussex, England, learning to paint at his fathers knee, and nurturing a<br />

love of nature that would become a lifelong passion. Here is a book that will restore R.D. Symons to his<br />

rightful place as a master, portraying life in nature, and nature in life.<br />

COUNTRYMEN<br />

LIDEGAARD, BO<br />

In the entire ghastly history of the Holocaust, only two "good" stories stand out, and this is one of them.<br />

Denmark, under German Occupation, but with its King and government intact, did something no other<br />

country in Western Europe even tried to do. Knowing that German command was coming in 1943 to<br />

round up their Jews (there were 7,000 of them) for deportation to the camps, they said no. The King, his<br />

ministers, and parliament were all in agreement--those 7,000 people were theirs, they were Danes who<br />

happened to be Jewish, and nobody was going to assist in their round-up and certain death. While the<br />

government used its limited but formidable powers to manoeuver and to impede matters in Berlin, the<br />

warning went out to the Jewish community that crisis was at hand. Over the next 14 days, assisted,<br />

helped, hidden, and protected by ordinary people who came together spontaneously to the aid of their<br />

countrymen who were suddenly refugees, an incredible 6,500 out of the 7,000 total escaped -- smuggled<br />

on big boats, little boats, fishing boats, anything that floated -- to Sweden. The bare facts of this exodus<br />

have been known for decades but, astonishingly, no full history of it has ever been researched or written.<br />

The refugees kept diaries, letters, family accounts which have now been brought together and form the<br />

basis of this riveting account. After a powerful historical introduction, the book follows the story on a dayby-day<br />

basis.<br />

DALLAS 1963<br />

MINUTAGLIO, BILL<br />

In the early 1960s, Dallas was brewing with political passions, a city full of extreme and unlikely<br />

characters, many of them dead-set against a Kennedy presidency-rabid politicos like defrocked military<br />

general Edwin A. Walker; oil baron H. L. Hunt; W. A. Criswell, leader of the largest Baptist congregation in<br />

the world; and fanatical congressman Bruce Alger; along with a host of gangsters, unsung civil rights<br />

leaders, strippers, billionaires, and marauding police. Beginning with the campaign for Kennedy's election<br />

and set against a nation in transition, Bill Minutaglio and Steven L. Davis ingeniously explore the swirling<br />

forces that led numerous friends and aides to warn the president against stopping in Dallas on his fateful<br />

trip to Texas.<br />

DAM BUSTERS<br />

HOLLAND, JAMES<br />

The night of 16 May, 1943. Nineteen specially adapted Lancaster bombers take off from RAF Scampton<br />

in Lincolnshire, each with a huge 9000lb cylindrical bomb strapped underneath it. Their mission: to<br />

destroy three dams deep within the German heartland, which provide the lifeblood to the industries<br />

supplying the Third Reich's war machine. From the outset it was an almost impossible task, a suicide<br />

mission: to fly low and at night in formation over many miles of enemy-occupied territory at the very limit<br />

of the Lancasters' capacity, and drop a new weapon that had never been tried operationally before from a<br />

precise height of just sixty feet from the water at some of the most heavily defended targets in Germany.<br />

More than that, the entire operation had to be put together in less than ten weeks. When visionary<br />

aviation engineer Barnes Wallis's concept of the bouncing bomb was green lighted, he hadn't even drawn<br />

up his plans for the weapon that was to smash the dams. What followed was an incredible race against<br />

time, which, despite numerous setbacks and against huge odds, became one of the most successful and<br />

game-changing bombing raids of all time.<br />

DAVID AND GOLIATH: UNDERDOGS, MISFITS, AND THE ART OF BATTLING GIANTS<br />

GLADWELL, MALCOLM<br />

We all know that underdogs can win-that's what the David versus Goliath legend tells us, and we've seen<br />

it with our own eyes. Or have we? In DAVID AND GOLIATH, Malcolm Gladwell, with his unparalleled<br />

ability to grasp connections others miss, uncovers the hidden rules that shape the balance between the<br />

weak and the mighty, the powerful and the dispossessed. Gladwell examines the battlefields of Northern<br />

Ireland and Vietnam, takes us into the minds of cancer researchers and civil rights leaders, and digs into<br />

the dynamics of successful and unsuccessful classrooms-all in an attempt to demonstrate how<br />

fundamentally we misunderstand the true meaning of advantages and disadvantages. When is a<br />

traumatic childhood a good thing? When does a disability leave someone better off? Do you really want<br />

your child to go to the best school he or she can get into? Why are the childhoods of people at the top of<br />

one profession after another marked by deprivation and struggle?<br />

DEATH ON TWO FRONTS<br />

CADIGAN, SEAN<br />

Death on Two Fronts, part of The History of Canada series, examines the tragic transformation of<br />

Newfoundland’s political culture between 1914 and 1934. For many people throughout Canada and the<br />

rest of the world, 1914 was important because it marked the beginning of the First World War. While the<br />

year became significant for the same reason in Newfoundland, it was not originally so. Newfoundland’s<br />

economy depended on the sea, and the seal hunt was vital. During the spring of 1914, seventy-seven<br />

men of the S.S. Newfoundland died and many more were injured when they became lost on the ice fields,<br />

locally known as “the front,” off the northeast coast. What became known as the Newfoundland sealing<br />

disaster galvanized popular discontent against mercantile profiteering and recklessness on the seal hunt,<br />

and influenced Newfoundland politics. The Great War muted this discontent and fostered a nationalist<br />

political culture founded on notions of honour, sacrifice, and patriotism—particularly after the mass deaths<br />

in the Royal Newfoundland Regiment at Beaumont Hamel. This nationalism was easily shaken, however,<br />

in the post-war economic crisis that plagued Newfoundland, frustrating more progressive attempts to deal<br />

with economic and social problems, and led to the collapse of responsible government in 1934. Although<br />

sealers had died in 1914 and soldiers fell in the years of the Great War, it was liberal democracy in<br />

Newfoundland that was the final casualty in the bitter struggles over the meaning of these events.<br />

DEATH WINS IN THE ARCTIC<br />

KARRAM, KERRY<br />

With prospectors, trappers, and whalers pouring into northwestern Canada, the North West Mounted<br />

Police were dispatched to the newest frontier to maintain patrols, protect indigenous peoples, enforce<br />

laws, and establish Canada's sovereignty in the North. In carrying out their duties, these intrepid men<br />

endured rigorous and dangerous conditions. On December 21, 1910, a four-man patrol left Fort<br />

McPherson, Northwest Territories, heading for Dawson City, Yukon, a distance of 670 kilometres. They<br />

never arrived. The harrowing drama of their 52-day struggle to survive is an account of courageous<br />

failure, one that will resonate strongly in its depiction of human intelligence pitted against the implacable<br />

forces of nature. Throughout their ordeal, issues of conservation, law enforcement, Aboriginal peoples,<br />

and sovereignty emerge, all of which are global concerns today.<br />

THE DEVIL THAT NEVER DIES: THE RISE AND THREAT OF GLOBAL ANTISEMITISM<br />

GOLDHAGEN, DANIEL JONAH<br />

Antisemitism never went away, but since the turn of the century it has multiplied beyond what anyone<br />

would have predicted. It is openly spread by intellectuals, politicians and religious leaders in Europe, Asia,<br />

the Arab world, America and Africa and supported by hundreds of millions more. Indeed, today<br />

antisemitism is stronger than any time since the Holocaust. In THE DEVIL THAT NEVER DIES, Daniel<br />

Jonah Goldhagen reveals the unprecedented, global form of this age-old hatred; its strategic use by<br />

states; its powerful appeal to individuals and groups; and how technology has fueled the flames that had<br />

been smoldering prior to the millennium. A remarkable work of intellectual brilliance, moral stature, and<br />

urgent alarm, THE DEVIL THAT NEVER DIES is destined to be one of the most provocative and talkedabout<br />

books of the year.<br />

DIVINE FURY: A HISTORY OF GENIUS<br />

MCMAHON, DARRIN M.<br />

Genius. The word connotes an almost unworldly power: the power to create, to grasp universal secrets,<br />

even to destroy. As renowned intellectual historian Darrin McMahon explains in Divine Fury, the concept<br />

of genius can be traced back to antiquity, when men of great insight were thought to be advised by<br />

demons. The modern idea of genius emerged in tension with a growing belief in human equality;<br />

contesting the notion that all are created equal, geniuses served to dramatize the exception of<br />

extraordinary individuals not governed by ordinary laws. Today, the idea of genius has become<br />

cheapened—rock stars and football coaches earn the term with seemingly the same ease as<br />

astrophysicists and philosophers—yet our enduring fascination with it reflects the desires, needs, and<br />

fears of ordinary human beings.<br />

DOG SONGS<br />

OLIVER, MARY<br />

Beloved by her readers, special to the poet’s own heart, Mary Oliver’s dog poems offer a special window<br />

into her world. Dog Songs collects some of the most cherished poems together with new works, offering a<br />

portrait of Oliver’s relationship to the companions that have accompanied her daily walks, warmed her<br />

home, and inspired her work. To be illustrated with images of the dogs themselves, the subjects will come<br />

to colorful life here. These are poems of love and laughter, heartbreak and grief. In these pages we visit<br />

with old friends, including Oliver’s well-loved Percy, and meet still others. Throughout, the many dogs of<br />

Oliver’s life emerge as fellow travelers, but also as guides, spirits capable of opening our eyes to the<br />

lessons of the moment and the joys of nature and connection.<br />

DOGFIGHT<br />

VOGELSTEIN, FRED<br />

It begins with the iPhone, which has transformed the concept of what a smart phone can be. Now<br />

everyone wants one, or else a smart phone like it. Apple and Google are fighting to find a way to control<br />

the software that runs these phones so they can manage the content that runs on top of it. The battle has<br />

become vicious, although Google makes more than half the apps that run on Apple devices. There may<br />

be room for both, but the history of technology suggests that only one player will be dominant in the long<br />

term. Author Fred Vogelstein recounts that struggle and describes the impact it is having on the rest of the<br />

media and on technology.<br />

THE DOGS ARE EATING THEM NOW<br />

SMITH, GRAEME<br />

The Dogs are Eating Them Now is a highly personal narrative of our war in Afghanistan and how it went<br />

dangerously wrong. Written by a respected and fearless former foreign correspondent who has won<br />

multiple awards for his journalism (including an Emmy for the video series "Talking with the Taliban") this<br />

is a gripping account of modern warfare that takes you into back alleys, cockpits and prisons--telling<br />

stories that would have endangered his life had he published this book while still working as a journalist.<br />

From the corruption of law enforcement agents and the tribal nature of the local power structure to the<br />

economics of the drug trade and the frequent blunders of foreign troops, this is the no-holds-barred story<br />

from a leading expert on the insurgency. Smith draws on his unmatched compassion and a rare ability to<br />

cut through the noise and see the broader truths to give us a bold and candid look at the Taliban's<br />

continued influence--and at the mistakes, catastrophes and ultimate failure of the West's best intentions.<br />

While nursing a broken heart, Josh Michaels is outraged when a neighbor abandons his very pregnant<br />

never had a dog before, he’s determined to do the best he can for Lucy—and her soon-to-arrive, boundto-be-adorable<br />

puppies. Soon in over his head, Josh calls the local animal shelter for help, and meets<br />

Kerri, a beautiful woman with a quick wit and a fierce love for animals. As Kerri teaches Josh how to care<br />

for Lucy’s tiny puppies and gets them ready to be adopted through the shelter’s “Dogs of Christmas”<br />

program, Josh surprises himself by falling for her. But he’s fallen even harder for his new furry family,<br />

which has brought incredible joy into Josh’s life. Can a surprise litter of Christmas puppies really change<br />

one man’s life?<br />

DOUBLE DOWN: GAME CHANGE 2012<br />

HALPERIN, MARK<br />

John Heilemann and Mark Halperin set the national conversation on fire with their bestselling account of<br />

the 2008 presidential election, Game Change. In Double Down, they apply their unparalleled access and<br />

storytelling savvy to the 2012 election, rendering an equally compelling narrative about the circuslike<br />

Republican nomination fight, the rise and fall of Mitt Romney, and the trials, tribulations, and Election Day<br />

triumph of Barack Obama. Drawing on hundreds of interviews with the people who lived the story,<br />

Heilemann and Halperin deliver another reportorial tour de force that reads like a fast-paced novel.<br />

Character driven and dialogue rich, replete with extravagantly detailed scenes, Double Down offers a<br />

panoramic account of a campaign at once intensely hard fought and lastingly consequential. For Obama,<br />

the victory he achieved meant even more to him than the one he had pulled off four years earlier. In 2008,<br />

he believed, voters had bet on a hope; in 2012, they passed positive judgment on what he’d actually<br />

done, allowing him to avert a loss that would have rendered his presidency a failed, one-term accident.<br />

For the Republicans, on the other hand, 2012 not only offered a crushing verdict but an existential<br />

challenge: to rethink and reconstitute the party or face irrelevance—or even extinction.<br />

While the feminist revolution has allowed women to close the gender gap professionally and<br />

educationally, it has also witnessed a disturbing rise in equality in more troubling areas of life. In most of<br />

the developed world, the rates of binge drinking among women have skyrocketed in the past decade.<br />

DUIs, “drunkorexia” and health conditions connected to alcohol abuse are all on the rise, especially<br />

among younger women—a problem exacerbated by the alcohol industry itself. Battling for women’s<br />

dollars and leisure time, corporations have developed marketing strategies and products targeted<br />

exclusively to women, including Girls’ Night Out, MommyJuice and Mommy’s Time Out wines, berryflavoured<br />

vodkas and fruit coolers. Award-winning journalist Ann Dowsett Johnston illuminates this<br />

startling epidemic, dissects the psychological, social and financial factors that have contributed to its rise,<br />

and explores its long-lasting impact on our society and individual lives, including her own. In Drink, she<br />

interweaves in-depth research and interviews with leading researchers with the moving story of her own<br />

struggle with alcohol, as well as those of many other women aged seventeen to seventy. The result is an<br />

unprecedented and bold inquiry that is both informative and shocking.<br />

DUKE: A LIFE OF DUKE ELLINGTON<br />

TEACHOUT, TERRY<br />

Edward Kennedy “Duke” Ellington was the greatest jazz composer of the twentieth century—and an<br />

impenetrably enigmatic personality whom no one, not even his closest friends, claimed to understand.<br />

The grandson of a slave, he dropped out of high school to become one of the world’s most famous<br />

musicians, a showman of incomparable suavity who was as comfortable in Carnegie Hall as in the<br />

nightclubs where he honed his style. He wrote some fifteen hundred compositions, many of which, like<br />

“Mood Indigo” and “Sophisticated Lady,” remain beloved standards, and he sought inspiration in an<br />

endless string of transient lovers, concealing his inner self behind a smiling mask of flowery language and<br />

ironic charm. As the biographer of Louis Armstrong, Terry Teachout is uniquely qualified to tell the story of<br />

the public and private lives of Duke Ellington. Duke peels away countless layers of Ellington’s evasion<br />

and public deception to tell the unvarnished truth about the creative genius who inspired Miles Davis to<br />

say, “All the musicians should get together one certain day and get down on their knees and thank Duke.”<br />

EMPRESS DOWAGER CIXI<br />

CHANG, JUNG<br />

A woman, an Empress of immense wealth who was largely a prisoner within the compound walls of her<br />

palaces, a mother, a ruthless enemy, and a brilliant strategist: Chang makes a compelling case that Cixi<br />

was one of the most formidable and enlightened rulers of any nation. Cixi led an intense and singular life.<br />

Chosen at the age of 12 to be a concubine by the Emperor Xianfeng, she gave birth to his only male heir<br />

who at four was designated Emperor when his father died in 1861. In a brilliant move, the young woman<br />

enlisted the help of the Emperor's widow and the two women orchestrated a coup that ousted the regents<br />

and made Cixi sole Regent. Untrained and untaught, the two studied history and politics together, ruling<br />

the huge nation from behind a curtain. When her boy died, Cixi designated a young nephew as Emperor,<br />

continuing her reign till her death in 1908. Chang gives us a complex, riveting portrait of Cixi through a<br />

reign as long as that of her fellow Empress, Victoria, whom she longed to meet: her ruthlessness in<br />

fighting off rivals; her curiosity to learn; her reliance on Westerners who she placed in key positions; and<br />

her sensitivity and desire to preserve the distinctiveness of China's past while overturning traditions (she,<br />

as Chang reveals--not Mao, as he claimed--banned footbinding) and exposing its culture to western ideas<br />

and technology.<br />

END ZONES AND BORDER WARS<br />

WILLES, ED<br />

End Zones and Border Wars is the story of the CFL's ill-fated period of expansion into the United States<br />

during the early to mid- 1990s. It was a time filled with intriguing characters, from John Candy to Nick<br />

Mileti to Pepper Rodgers, the coach who loved everything about the Canadian game except the rules and<br />

the teams. With a cast of investors who are hopeful but unfamiliar with the game, bizarre stories emerge,<br />

from the Las Vegas Posse practising in the parking lot of the Riviera to the Shreveport Pirates camping<br />

out above a barn full of circus animals. The CFL's attempts to push the Canadian game into expanded<br />

territory brought both heartbreak and victory, and this is its fascinating story.<br />

THE EVERYTHING STORE: JEFF BEZOS AND THE AGE OF AMAZON<br />

STONE, BRAD<br />

Amazon.com started off delivering books through the mail. But its visionary founder, Jeff Bezos, wasn't<br />

content with being a bookseller. He wanted Amazon to become the everything store, offering limitless<br />

selection and seductive convenience at disruptively low prices. To do so, he developed a corporate<br />

culture of relentless ambition and secrecy that's never been cracked. Until now. Brad Stone enjoyed<br />

unprecedented access to current and former Amazon employees and Bezos family members, giving<br />

readers the first in-depth, fly-on-the-wall account of life at Amazon. Compared to tech's other elite<br />

innovators--Jobs, Gates, Zuckerberg--Bezos is a private man. But he stands out for his restless pursuit of<br />

new markets, leading Amazon into risky new ventures and transforming the retail landscape.<br />

EXODUS<br />

COLLIER, PAUL<br />

In Exodus, world-renowned economist and bestselling author Paul Collier lays out the effects of<br />

encouraging or restricting migration in the interests of both sending and receiving societies. Drawing on<br />

original research and numerous case studies, Collier explores this volatile issue from three unique<br />

perspectives: the migrants themselves, the people they leave behind, and the host societies where they<br />

relocate. As Collier shows, those who migrate from the poorest countries, primarily though not exclusive<br />

the young, tend to be the best educated and most energetic in their cultures. And while migrants often<br />

benefit economically, the larger impacts of mass migrations remain unsettling. The danger is that both<br />

host countries and sending societies may lose their national identities-- an outcome that Collier suggests<br />

would be disastrous as national identity is a powerful force for equity. Collier asserts that migration must<br />

be restricted to ensure that it helps those who remain in sending countries and also benefits host<br />

societies that make the investment on which migrant gains rely.<br />

THE FAMILY OF JESUS<br />

KINGSBURY, KAREN<br />

For the first time ever, readers will develop an emotional connection to the family members of Jesus,<br />

learning about their lives and falling in love with Scripture along the way. Bible studies and devotionals<br />

abound, and in churches everywhere people gather to seek a deeper understanding of God’s word and its<br />

application to their lives. But too often these studies engage only the analytic approach to Bible learning.<br />

In The Family of Jesus, #1 New York Times bestselling novelist Karen Kingsbury will make you laugh, cry,<br />

and ultimately care more deeply about the Bible by helping you grasp the truths in Scripture not just with<br />

your mind, but with your heart. The characters in these short stories were among those closest to Jesus—<br />

Mary, Joseph, Jesus’ brother James, John the Baptist, Zechariah, and Elizabeth. Each has a compelling<br />

tale to tell. Kingsbury intersperses fictional, emotionally gripping details anchored in Scripture with<br />

historical and theological insights and questions that will guide soul-searching and reflection.<br />

FEAR FIX SOLUTIONS FOR EVERY CHILD'S MOMENTS OF WORRY, PANIC AND FEAR<br />

RADCLIFFE, SARAH<br />

While serious anxiety affects one in five children and teens, virtually every child has anxious moments<br />

and frightened feelings. The Fear Fix approaches anxiety as a normal process of thinking and feeling that<br />

occurs naturally in people of all ages. Friendly and authoritative, the book helps parents understand the<br />

difference between “normal” and more serious anxiety so that parents know when professional help is<br />

required and when “home treatment” is appropriate. Sarah Chana Radcliffe offers parents a wide range of<br />

interventions, layered in such a way as to offer parents as many useful options as possible to help their<br />

kids through all the small and large anxious moments that they will inevitably encounter. For this reason,<br />

Radcliffe gives parents three levels of intervention: things they can say and/or do in the moment that can<br />

help their youngster negotiate feelings of fear; fear-calming activities and exercises they can teach their<br />

child to use independently; and mind-body strategies they can use with their child in order to uproot the<br />

child’s fear at its source.<br />

FIELDS OF GRACE<br />

LUCE, HANNAH<br />

On May 11, 2012, a small plane carrying five young adults en route to a Christian youth rally plummeted<br />

into a Kansas field. Only two survived the crash: twenty-seven-year-old ex-marine Austin Anderson, who<br />

would die the next morning from extensive burns, and his friend Hannah Luce, the twenty-two-year-old<br />

daughter of influential youth minister Ron Luce. Had it not been for Austin rising out of the rubble to help<br />

Hannah along in his last hours, and the assistance of a passing driver who just happened upon them, she<br />

may have died. Fields of Grace is a story not just of survival against the odds, but of spiritual revelation.<br />

On the surface, Hannah was the dutiful daughter of Evangelical royalty, with a degree from Oral Roberts<br />

University and a staff position in her father’s ministry. Yet she had begun to investigate and question her<br />

early religious convictions. Hannah recounts the transformative aftermath of the crash—Austin’s strength<br />

as he took care of her even as his own body failed, the miracle of the stranger who rescued them, and<br />

memories of her beloved friend Garrett. Profoundly moving and ultimately uplifting, Fields of Grace is a<br />

story of a girl staring death in the face only to find resilience and hope from her faith—a new kind of faith<br />

that would change her forever.<br />

FIGHTING BACK: THE CHRIS NILAN STORY<br />

NILAN, CHRIS<br />

Chris Nilan, who grew up in the tough and gritty Irish enclavein Boston, was a feared enforcer for the<br />

Montreal Canadiens, Boston Bruins and New York Rangers, and a Stanley Cup champion never afraid to<br />

go into the corners or take off his gloves. He was a valued teammate whose very presence on the ice<br />

affected the way the game was played. Always a colourful character, Nilan was married for many years to<br />

the daughter of the longtime girlfriend of Boston mob figure Whitey Bulger, among the most notorious,<br />

ruthless and murderous gangsters in American history—almost all of his Habs teammates attended the<br />

wedding. As an enforcer and as a teammate, Nilan ranks among the greatest of all time. When the<br />

cheering stopped, however, Chris Nilan did not do well. The same qualities—his aggressiveness and<br />

high-emotion style—that proved so valuable on the ice did not serve him well when his career ended.<br />

Nilan turned to drugs and alcohol to dull his pain, and nearly died from an overdose. Nilan’s story is a<br />

fascinating and troubling exposé of the booze, bills and drugs that destroy so many athletes after their<br />

careers are over. But it’s also a story of triumph—Nilan has been the victor in his fight against his<br />

demons.<br />

FIRE AND ASHES<br />

IGNATIEFF, MICHAEL<br />

Renowned author and former Liberal Party of Canada leader Michael Ignatieff delivers a stirring<br />

meditation on contemporary politics and the lessons he learned in defeat. Candid and utterly unexpected,<br />

this book is not just for Canadians concerned about the future of the Liberal Party, but for all citizens<br />

concerned about the future of Canada and of political discourse in today's increasingly partisan world. In<br />

2011, the "Natural Governing Party of Canada" suffered its greatest defeat when Stephen Harper's<br />

Conservatives won a majority and Jack Layton's NDP superseded the Liberals to form the Official<br />

Opposition. It has spawned a time of soul-searching for the Liberal Party and its former leader, Michael<br />

Ignatieff--but while the party continues to look for answers, Ignatieff has found his in Fire and Ashes: the<br />

reasons why he went into politics in the first place. In what he says is the most difficult book he's ever<br />

written, Ignatieff (the son of a Canadian diplomat whose reputation was made long before he risked it all<br />

in politics) explores what it is to be a citizen and why, even in today's adversarial climate, the aspirations<br />

of the political life can still outweigh the costs.<br />

From current stars Jordan Eberle, Ryan Getzlaf, Jarret Stoll, and Brooks Laich to Hall of Famers and<br />

histories of the greatest Saskatchewan hockey players. Saskatchewan produces more NHL hockey<br />

players per capita than any other place in the world, and Fire on Ice is the story of kids literally growing up<br />

skating on frozen sloughs, backyard rinks, and in small-town arenas. They turn the hard-working ethic of<br />

their backgrounds into the characteristics that make for great NHL players. Including 40 black-and-white<br />

photos, this historical look at hockey in Saskatchewan explains the reason why the province produces so<br />

much talent.<br />

FIVE ESSENTIALS<br />

DEUTSCH, BOB<br />

As a cognitive neuroscientist, anthropologist, and entrepreneur, Bob Deutsch has spent a lifetime<br />

studying people. What he has found is that most of us set the bar too low in our lives, both personally and<br />

professionally. We choose not to pursue our greatest ambitions because we feel we are incapable of<br />

reaching them. But he has also found that we are each born with the fundamental abilities to live the full,<br />

creative, dynamic life we dream about. These are our five inner resources: Curiosity, Openness,<br />

Sensuality, Paradox, and Self-Story. In this compelling book, Deutsch shows us how to access and use<br />

them to open our lives to unimagined possibilities. Filled with great stories and interviews with inspiring<br />

people, including Wynton Marsalis, Richard Feynman, and Anna Quindlen, The 5 Essentials will appeal to<br />

readers of The Element and The Tools. It opens the door to a way of being more alive than you have ever<br />

been.<br />

Flirt Smarter. Date Better. Love Happily Ever After. Do you always attract the wrong type? Have a hard<br />

time making relationships last? Or get stuck being friends instead of lovers? There's no one right way to<br />

flirt, but how you flirt says a lot about your chance at love. Dr. Jeffrey Hall's groundbreaking survey, the<br />

Flirting Styles Inventory, caused a media sensation when it pinpointed five different flirting styles. First<br />

sampled exclusively with eHarmony members, it has since helped tens of thousands of people discover<br />

their flirting style and provided a wealth of information on how your style affects your love life. Based on<br />

Dr. Hall's cutting-edge research, The Five Flirting Styles shows you how to identify your natural flirting<br />

style-physical, playful, sincere, traditional or polite-and use it to flirt smarter and attract the love you really<br />

want.<br />

fundamental concept.<br />

FLOATING CITY<br />

VENKATESH, SUDHIR<br />

The bestselling author of "Gang Leader for a Day" reveals the secrets of New York's underground<br />

economy in this vivid memoir of sociological investigation "This is New York! We're like hummingbirds,<br />

man," explains Shine, a small-time Harlem crack dealer breaking into the elite cocaine market. "We go<br />

flower to flower. Didn't they teach you that in Chicago?" Sudhir Venkatesh's last book arose from his<br />

groundbreaking work in Chicago, revealing the true cost of doing business for drug gangs in the city's<br />

worst housing projects. After a decade learning the critical lesson of urban poverty--"your neighborhood is<br />

your fate"--Venkatesh arrived in New York expecting the same harsh certainty. But what Shine shows<br />

Venkatesh is something wholly unexpected: a city where neighborhoods mean nothing and networks<br />

mean everything, where the distinctions between race and class simply dissolve. In "Floating City,"<br />

Venkatesh explores New York's highs and lows--the trust-fund socialites with their cocktail parties and<br />

elite sex work, the recent immigrants with their illicit jobs and sordid compromises--and discovers a city of<br />

tremendous social transformation. Exposing the immigrant nannies working off the books for young<br />

professionals in high-priced condos, the black low-income drug dealers serving white hedge fund traders<br />

and hip artists, Venkatesh reveals a global city knit together by the invisible shifting threads of the<br />

underground economy. Searching for a grand theory to explain the intersecting world of both rich and<br />

poor, Venkatesh wonders: Isn't it possible that staring up at the skyscrapers made you blind to the true<br />

picture? Of course, Shine counsels, you're not in Chicago anymore. Here in New York, "You need to<br />

float." "Floating City: A Rogue Sociologist Lost and Found in New York's Underground Economy" follows<br />

Venkatesh's journeys through the "vast invisible continent" of New York's underground economy, an<br />

unseen world linking and strengthening the enormous diversity of a new global city in the throes of<br />

becoming. "Floating City" reveals the real winners and losers of the new economy, the thriving elites who<br />

pull the levers of power and the desperate laborers who always risk falling off the bottom. Propelled by<br />

Venkatesh's interviews with hundreds of prostitutes, madams, drug dealers, and immigrants, "Floating<br />

City" is the ultimate journey into the true workings of America's most diverse and influential city.<br />

FORGOTTEN CANADIAN POWS<br />

GREENFIELD, NATHAN<br />

The Forgotten tells the story of the more than 10,000 Canadian servicemen, merchant mariners and<br />

civilians whose war ended in surrender, capture and imprisonment, through the eyes of a group of men in<br />

Hitler’s grasp: Private Stan Darch, who had already survived the cauldron of Dieppe; seventeen civilian<br />

priests and brothers captured at sea, one of whom risked his life to hide an escape tunnel after the Great<br />

Escape; Edward Carter-Edwards, who endured the hell of Buchenwald concentration camp; and RCAF<br />

Sergeant Ian MacDonald, who, having been on the run for six weeks after being shot down, was betrayed<br />

to the Gestapo and survived six weeks in the notorious Fresnes Prison in Paris. To survive the often<br />

horrid conditions of Stalags across Europe and the hunger marches through the freezing snows of the<br />

winter of 1944–45, these otherwise ordinary Canadians demonstrated extraordinary valour and<br />

commitment to each other and to the Allied cause.<br />

FROM SCRATCH: INSIDE THE FOOD NETWORK<br />

SALKIN, ALLEN<br />

In October 1993, a tiny start-up called the Food Network debuted to little notice. Twenty years later, it is in<br />

100 million homes, approaches a billion dollars a year in revenue, and features a galaxy of stars whose<br />

faces and names are as familiar to us as our own family’s. But what we don’t know about them, and the<br />

people behind them, could fill a book. Based upon extensive inside access, documents, and interviews<br />

with hundreds of executives, stars, and employees all up and down the ladder, Allen Salkin’s book is an<br />

exhilarating roller-coaster ride from chaos to conquest (and sometimes back). As Salkin takes us inside<br />

the conference rooms, studios, homes, restaurants, and after-hours meetings, we see a salty Julia Child<br />

lording it over the early network performers; a fragile Emeril Lagasse staggering from the sudden public<br />

shock of cancellation; a very green Rachael Ray nearly burning down the set on her first day; a torn Tyler<br />

Florence accepting the Applebee’s job he knows he can’t refuse, but with a chill running down his spine; a<br />

determined Bobby Flay reinventing himself once again to survive.<br />

FUND YOUR DREAMS<br />

DALY, MEAGHAN<br />

Fund Your Dreams offers a new perspective on personal finance. It is a must-read for young people<br />

starting out on their financial journey and people who have chosen the wrong financial path and need a<br />

reset. The financial world has changed dramatically in the last twenty years, and yet personal finance<br />

continues to be replete with the same outdated advice. Written a Bay Street Trader, this book helps<br />

Canadians understand the new financial world we live in and all of the challenges it brings. We are now<br />

required to make far more financial decisions in our daily lives than previous generations. Fund Your<br />

Dreams will arm you with the knowledge to make more calculated and more responsible choices. The<br />

book will help you understand concepts such as the difference between being poor and being broke;the<br />

difference between what you can pay for and what you can afford; andthat going to Starbucks is not why<br />

you can’t achieve your financial dreams. Fund Your Dreams is a comprehensive guide that will teach you<br />

about the three fundamentals of your financial life—income, savings, and investing—and how they can<br />

work together to help you achieve your dreams on your own terms.<br />

FURIOUS COOL<br />

HENRY, DAVID<br />

No one who saw Richard Pryor alone on stage with nothing but a microphone in his hand could have<br />

doubted that here was a man possessed of genius. But few have any sense of the strange, violent, and<br />

colorful landscape from which he emerged. His childhood in Peoria, Illinois, was spent just trying to<br />

survive. Yet the culture into which he was born—his mother was a prostitute; his grandmother ran the<br />

whorehouse—helped shaped him into one of the most influential and outstanding performers of our time.<br />

Pryor attracted admiration and anger in equal parts. He was a comedian who many consider the greatest<br />

ever, yet his triumphant stand-up work has been largely eclipsed by his mediocre movie output. His<br />

personal life was likewise something of a contradiction, because Pryor was a man of deep intelligence<br />

and sensitivity yet was also someone who could never seem to make the pieces of his life come together<br />

to create a whole. His was a fascinating, larger-than-life personality; he was as pivotal and essential a<br />

figure as Bob Dylan, Miles Davis, or Muhammad Ali. Pryor the solo artist brought to a pop obsessed<br />

generation the news that they had a past with deep roots that spoke to our shared humanity. Through<br />

David and Joe Henry, Richard Pryor speaks to us still.<br />

THE FUTURE OF CATHOLICISM<br />

COREN, MICHAEL<br />

When Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio, Archbishop of Buenos Aires, became Pope Francis in March 2013,<br />

there were almost 6,000 journalists in Rome to cover the Papal election. Some of them reported on the<br />

conclave with expertise and empathy, but others -- either out of ignorance or an agenda -- insisted on<br />

asking the same questions again and again: Is the Church going to change? Will the new Pope be<br />

flexible? Is Catholicism going to adapt to the times and alter its teaching on same-sex marriage, abortion,<br />

contraception, female ordination, celibate clergy, and divorce? Interestingly, these questions center on<br />

moral and sexual issues rather than directly theological topics, but they are all based on the premise that<br />

the Church is wrong, outdated, in need of fundamental transformation. In his frank style, Coren will<br />

explain and outline why the Church believes as it does on many of the most pressing moral issues, giving<br />

reasons for teaching and belief, and applying these to contemporary challenges. And for those areas<br />

where the Church must change and establish reform -- the transparency of leadership and finance; the<br />

competence of the curia and Vatican civil service; the approach the Church takes towards media, the way<br />

it deals with the detritus of the abuse crisis; and its approach to the developing world band towards others<br />

religions, particularly Islam -- Coren will offer insight into the faith's next steps.<br />

GADDAFI’S HAREM<br />

COJEAN, ANNICK<br />

Soraya was just fifteen, a schoolgirl in the coastal town of Sirte, when she was given the honor of<br />

presenting a bouquet of flowers to Colonel Gaddafi, “the Guide,” on a visit he was making to her school<br />

the following week. This one meeting—a presentation of flowers, a pat on the head from Gaddafi—<br />

changed Soraya’s life forever. Soon afterwards, she was summoned to Bab al-Azizia, Gaddafi’s palatial<br />

compound near Tripoli, where she joined a number of young women who were violently abused, raped<br />

and degraded by Gaddafi. Heartwrenchingly tragic but ultimately redemptive, Soraya’s story is the first<br />

one of many that are just now beginning to be heard. But sex and rape remain the highest taboo in Libya,<br />

and women like Soraya (whose identity is protected by a pseudonym here) risk being disowned or even<br />

killed by their dishonored family members.<br />

THE GERM CODE<br />

TETRO, JASON<br />

Since the dawn of the human race, germs have been making us sick. Whether the ailment is a cold, the<br />

flu, diabetes, obesity or certain cancers, the likely cause is germs. Our ancient enemies have four families<br />

- bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa - and many names: Ebola, E. coli, salmonella, norovirus,<br />

gonorrhea. . . Human beings are engaged in a "war on germs," in which we develop ever-more<br />

sophisticated weapons and defensive strategies. But it is a war we can never win. Our best plan for<br />

staying as healthy is to choose our battles carefully, and try to co-exist with germs as best we can.<br />

GOD IS NOT MAD AT YOU<br />

MEYER, JOYCE<br />

When Joyce Meyer posted "God's not mad at you" on Facebook a few months ago, she didn't realize that<br />

those five words would trigger thousands of posts of gratitude and relief. She had obviously hit a hot<br />

button. Her latest book addresses the fears of those who know God loves them but still fear his anger.<br />

"Where does this concept of God come from?" she asks in the introduction. "Perhaps from an angry<br />

parent who was difficult to please. Or the pain of rejection from parents or friends who didn't know how to<br />

give unconditional love. Perhaps it came from the church! From religious teaching that offered us rules<br />

and regulations to follow and implied that we'd be unacceptable to God if we didn't follow them. " It's a<br />

paradox that isn't often discussed by Christian teachers: God loved the world so much that He gave His<br />

son to rescue mankind. Yet we tend to think of Him as a stern judge who is ready to punish us at the<br />

slightest misstep.<br />

GOLD<br />

HART, MATTHEW<br />

Since the 2008 financial crisis, the price of gold has skyrocketed from around $800 an ounce in August of<br />

that year to a peak of about $1700 an ounce. Fortunes have been made, and this has kicked off an<br />

unprecedented gold-mining and prospecting boom around the world. From armed illegal miners holed up<br />

in South African mines—where theft is estimated at $1 billion a year—to the hugely successful workings<br />

of Canada’s Barrick Gold to China’s determined efforts to become a major gold player, Matthew Hart<br />

takes readers on a journey around the world and through history to tell the story of how gold became the<br />

world’s most precious commodity. He highlights its dramatic, tempestuous history and the behind-thescenes<br />

intrigue of the current boom. The controversial rollercoaster narrative reveals what experts are<br />

saying about the profound changes underway in the gold market and the outlook for the future.<br />

A GOOD DAY'S WORK<br />

DEMONT, JOHN<br />

A Good Day's Work is a lyrical journey through a semi-mythological place: the Canada of our imagination.<br />

It is the Canada of the day before yesterday. Or perhaps the Canada of 1967 -- the country's "Last Good<br />

Year," as Pierre Berton dubbed it. It is a portrait of Canada captured by way of encounters with a<br />

blacksmith, a cowgirl, a milkman, a traveling salesman and other custodians of trades from another time.<br />

Woven into the always engaging, sometimes strange, sometimes moving and frequently funny interviews<br />

are the ruminations and personal reflections of that wonderful writer John DeMont (who as a newspaper<br />

reporter and columnist of a certain age is something of a vanishing tradesman himself). The iconic<br />

Canada--the country of close-knit small towns, of common geography and history, of meaningful work and<br />

communal values and institutions--is being transformed. John DeMont has gone in search of people who<br />

make their living the old way, in an attempt to distill the essence of our shared past.<br />

Renowned neurologist David Perlmutter, MD, blows the lid off a topic that's been buried in medical<br />

literature for far too long: carbs are destroying your brain. And not just unhealthy carbs, but even healthy<br />

ones like whole grains can cause dementia, ADHD, anxiety, chronic headaches, depression, and much<br />

more. Dr. Perlmutter explains what happens when the brain encounters common ingredients in your daily<br />

bread and fruit bowls, why your brain thrives on fat and cholesterol, and how you can spur the growth of<br />

new brain cells at any age. He offers an in-depth look at how we can take control of our "smart genes"<br />

through specific dietary choices and lifestyle habits, demonstrating how to remedy our most feared<br />

maladies without drugs. With a revolutionary 30-day plan, GRAIN BRAIN teaches us how we can<br />

GREAT BRITAIN'S GREAT WAR<br />

PAXMAN, JEREMY<br />

The images we have of the First World War – a Tommy buried in the mud of the Western Front; the<br />

pointing finger of Lord Kitchener; the memorial poppies of Remembrance Day – all reinforce the idea that<br />

it was, in the end, an utterly pointless waste of life, and very little more. So why did we fight it so willingly<br />

and how did we endure it for so long? Using a wealth of first-hand source material, Jeremy Paxman<br />

brings vividly to life the day-to-day experience of the British over the entire course of the war, from<br />

politicians, newspapermen, campaigners and Generals, to Tommies, factory-workers, nurses, wives and<br />

children, capturing the whole mood and morale of the nation and explaining how life and identity in Britain<br />

were utterly transformed, not always for the worse, by this experience. Rich with personalities, surprises<br />

and ironies, this broad narrative history paints a picture of courage and confusion, doubts and dilemmas,<br />

and is written with Jeremy Paxman's characteristic flair for story-telling, wry humour and pithy<br />

observation.<br />

THE GREAT CHOLESTEROL MYTH COOKBOOK<br />

BOWDEN, JONNY<br />

For decades, low-fat and low-cholesterol diets have been touted as the way to prevent and reverse heart<br />

disease. In the groundbreaking book, The Great Cholesterol Myth, Jonny Bowden and Dr. Stephen<br />

Sinatra debunked that assertion, arguing that fat—often curtailed on traditional low cholesterol” hearthealthy”<br />

diet—is not the enemy and may in fact be part of the solution. The grains and carbohydrates that<br />

GREAT EXPECTATIONS: THE 2013 TORONTO BLUE JAYS<br />

DAVIDI, SHI<br />

A one of a kind look at the Toronto Blue Jays 2013 season, two seasoned sports journalists provide<br />

readers with all they need to know as the team attempts to end their 20-year playoff drought. Beginning<br />

with a full look at General Manager Alex Anthopoulos’s busy offseason in the wake of a disappointing<br />

2012 season—from the acquisition of Cy Young winner R. A. Dickey, a sexual abuse survivor who is the<br />

only active knuckleballer in the majors, to the blockbuster trade that brought in the electric shortstop José<br />

Reyes and aces Josh Johnson and Mark Buehrle—Great Expectations is replete with details on the<br />

team’s newly overhauled roster. The book also highlights other members of the team, including Brett<br />

Lawrie, the team’s lone Canadian, whose kinetic style of play is a double-edged sword; José Bautista, the<br />

two-time home-run champion bidding to revive his power following wrist surgery; and Melky Cabrera,<br />

whose 50-game drug suspension in 2012 forced him to sign a free-agent contract with a new team for<br />

half the money he might otherwise have realized. Packed with insightful content, game-by-game analysis,<br />

and a bevy of photos, this is the only book Blue Jays fans need to commemorate the team’s 2013<br />

season.<br />

GROUNDSWELL: THE CASE FOR FRACKING<br />

LEVANT, EZRA<br />

In Groundswell, Ezra Levant examines the fracking revolution. Fracking (from "fracturing") involves<br />

injecting millions of gallons of water mixed with sand and chemicals into a well deep underground to<br />

fracture shale rock and release previously inaccessible reserves of oil and gas. The United States,<br />

Canada, North Africa, and the Middle East have vast reserves of shale gas and accessing it will mean a<br />

seismic shift in energy geopolitics. With natural gas in abundance, prices fall and the stranglehold by<br />

energy companies like Russia's Gazprom loosens. OPEC, environmentalists, and communities<br />

throughout North America are fighting hard to stop fracking, and Levant debunks their motivations and<br />

arguments, while arguing that fracking's benefits outweigh its costs, even environmentally. With Ethical<br />

Oil, Levant completely changed the debate surrounding Canada's oil sands. In this timely and<br />

controversial book he provides desperately needed perspective on a subject of growing global<br />

importance.<br />

The Gronkowski family is a legitimate miracle. 5 towering brothers: Three who play in the NFL - a Denver<br />

Gronkowski, who is realizing a meteoric rise to a spot in NFL history. Another who played major league<br />

they were motivated, how they trained, how they played, even how their mother kept them fed. It all<br />

started with their father, Gordy, under whose tutelage this collection of giants has broken every rule about<br />

how 21st century athletic success functions. Beyond their monstrous size, physicality, and raw talent,<br />

Papa Gronk recognized early on that a clear commitment to fitness, health, and determination would give<br />

HANGING MAN: THE ARREST OF AI WEIWEI<br />

MARTIN, BARNABY<br />

In October 2010, Ai Weiwei’s Sunflower Seeds appeared in the Turbine Hall in the Tate Modern. In April<br />

2011, he was arrested and held for more than two months in terrible conditions. The most famous living<br />

Chinese artist and activist, Weiwei is a figure of extraordinary talent, courage, and integrity. From the<br />

beginning of his career, he has spoken out against the world’s most powerful totalitarian regime, in part by<br />

creating some of the most beautiful and mysterious artworks of our age, works which have touched<br />

millions around the world. Just after Ai Weiwei’s release from illegal detention, Barnaby Martin flew to<br />

Beijing to interview him about his imprisonment and to learn more about what is really going on behind<br />

the scenes in the upper echelons of the Chinese Communist Party. Based on these interviews and<br />

Martin’s own intimate connections with China, Hanging Man is an exploration of Weiwei’s life, art, and<br />

activism and also a meditation on the creative process, and on the history of art in modern China. It is a<br />

rich picture of the man and his milieu, of what he is trying to communicate with his art, and of the growing<br />

campaign for democracy and accountability in China. It is a book about courage and hope found in the<br />

absence of freedom and justice.<br />

HANNS AND RUDOLF<br />

HARDING, THOMAS<br />

May 1945. In the aftermath of the Second World War, the first British War Crimes Investigation Team is<br />

assembled to hunt down the senior Nazi officials responsible for the greatest atrocities the world has ever<br />

seen. One of the lead investigators is Lieutenant Hanns Alexander, a German Jew now serving in the<br />

British Army. Rudolf Höss is his most elusive target. As Kommandant of Auschwitz, Höss not only<br />

oversaw the murder of more than two million men, women, and children, but he perfected Hitler’s<br />

programme of mass extermination. On the run across a continent in ruins, Höss is the one man whose<br />

testimony can ensure justice at Nuremberg. Hanns and Rudolf reveals for the very first time the full,<br />

exhilarating account of Höss’s capture, an encounter with repercussions that echo to this day. Moving<br />

from the Middle-Eastern campaigns of the First World War to bohemian Berlin in the 1920s to the horror<br />

of the concentration camps and the trials in Belsen and Nuremberg, it tells the story of two German men<br />

— one Jewish, one Catholic — whose lives diverged, and intersected, in an astonishing way.<br />

** MANITOBAN ** HAPPINESS THREADS<br />

UNRAU, MELANIE DENNIS<br />

Happiness Threads: The Unborn Poems, Melanie Dennis Unrau’s debut collection, is an elegantly spare,<br />

thoughtful, and fiercely tenacious meditation on the trials and tribulations of modern motherhood. Written<br />

in response to the platitude “Your children are your poetry now,” Happiness Threads explores the struggle<br />

of a young mother to balance the demands of raising young children with her desire to make art. Unrau<br />

wastes neither words nor sentiment; often brief and wonderfully compact, these poems shy away from<br />

nothing—delving into every challenge from the onslaught of dirty diapers and spit-up to the despair in the<br />

aftermath of a stillbirth.<br />

has guided her life and family. In A Happy Holiday IS a Merry Christmas, she calls for bringing back the<br />

freedom to express the Christian values of the season. She asserts the importance of preserving Jesus<br />

Christ in Christmas—in public displays, school concerts, pageants, and our expressions to one another<br />

other—and laments the over-commercialization and homogenization of Christmas in today’s society.<br />

Interwoven throughout are personal memories and family traditions, as well as more than a dozen family<br />

photos, which illustrate the reasons why the celebration of Christ’s nativity is the centerpiece of her faith.<br />

HARRY: A BIOGRAPHY<br />

MOODY, MARCIA<br />

Prince Harry is arguably one of the most recognized faces in the world today, and is never far from the<br />

media spotlight—sometimes to the dismay of the Royal Family. Yet in his relatively short life he has seen<br />

and done a variety of fascinating and unusual things, from setting up his own charities to serving on the<br />

front line in Afghanistan, and embarking upon his first solo tour. No matter how privileged his upbringing<br />

and how protected he has been, Prince Harry has certainly lived life. This biography covers it all, starting<br />

from his early years; the breakdown of his parents' marriage; the death of his mother, Diana, Princess of<br />

Wales; his relationships with Chelsy Davy, his father, and Camilla Parker Bowles; his time at Sandhurst<br />

and serving on the front line in Afghanistan; his charity walk to the North Pole; his partying; his first solo<br />

tour; and those naked photos from Las Vegas.<br />

HEART<br />

CHENEY, DICK & REINER, JONATHAN<br />

For almost as long as he served at the highest levels of government and business, Dick Cheney has<br />

been one of the most well known cardiac patients in the world. When he suffered his first heart attack in<br />

1978, Cheney received essentially the same treatment as President Eisenhower did after his heart attack<br />

in 1955. Since then, coronary care has undergone revolutionary changes. The story of these changes is<br />

told through the chronicle of Cheney’s own heart disease and the treatments he received. In Heart, for<br />

the first time ever, Dick Cheney shares the very personal story of his health struggles. Heart traces the<br />

history of cardiology over the past forty years through the alternating narratives of Cheney and his<br />

longtime cardiologist Dr. Jonathan Reiner. In their voices, readers will learn about Cheney’s personal<br />

experiences, get a glimpse into the all-important doctor-patient relationship, and learn about the cuttingedge<br />

science that has radically changed the way we think about and treat the disease.<br />

SUTHERLAND, JOHN<br />

As the annual flow of novels grows ever greater, it's a hard job to keep up, let alone sort the wheat from<br />

the chaff. Fortunately John Sutherland is on hand to do precisely that for you, and in 500 wittily<br />

informative essays he introduces you to the very best of the world's fiction. His taste is impressively<br />

catholic: an appreciation of The Ambassadors is immediately followed by a consideration of American<br />

Psycho. War and Peace, Heat and Dust and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory all make an appearance.<br />

There are imposing Victorian novels, entertaining contemporary thrillers and everything in between, from<br />

spy novels to romance. In each case a sense of the flavour of the novel is brilliantly evoked and a<br />

compelling case made for why it should be a candidate for the bookshelf or bedside table.<br />

HOW TO KILL A VAMPIRE<br />

LADOUCEUR, LIISA<br />

Citing examples from folklore, as well as horror films, TV shows, and works of fiction, this book details all<br />

known ways to prevent vampirism, including how to protect oneself against attacks and how to destroy<br />

vampires. While offering explanations on the origins and uses of most commonly known tactics in fending<br />

off vampirism, the book also delves much deeper by collecting historical accounts of unusual burial rites<br />

and shocking superstitions from European history. It traces the evolution of how to kill the fictional<br />

vampire—from Bram Stoker’s Dracula and the Hammer horror films beginning in the 1950s to Anne<br />

Rice’s Lestat and the dreamy vamps of Twilight, True Blood, and The Vampire Diaries—and also<br />

celebrates the most important slayers, including Van Helsing, Buffy, and Blade. In exploring how and why<br />

these monsters have been created and the increasingly complex ways in which they are destroyed, the<br />

book not only serves as a handy guide to the history and modern role of the vampire, it reveals much<br />

about the changing nature of human fears.<br />

JOHNNY CASH: THE LIFE<br />

HILBURN, ROBERT<br />

Although part of his life has been told on film, there are many compelling layers to his story that have<br />

remained hidden--until now. Robert Hilburn tells the unvarnished truth about a musical icon whose<br />

personal life was far more troubled and his artistry much more profound than even his most devoted fans<br />

have realized. As music critic for the Los Angeles Times, Hilburn knew Cash well throughout his life--he<br />

was the only music journalist at the legendary Folsom Prison concert in 1968, and he interviewed him<br />

extensively just before Cash's death in 2003. Drawing upon his personal experience with Cash and a<br />

trove of never-before seen material from the singer's inner circle, Hilburn gives us a compelling, human<br />

portrait of one of the most iconic figures in modern popular culture--not only a towering figure in country<br />

music, but also a seminal influence in rock.<br />

a list of supplies, step-by-step instructions, and helpful pictures, anecdotes, and tips. The final section<br />

focuses on the contemporary whiskey scene, and an opinionated guide to building your own collection.<br />

THE KRAUS PROJECT<br />

FRANZEN, JONATHAN<br />

A hundred years ago, the writings of Viennese satirist Karl Krauswere among the most penetrating and<br />

prophetic in Europe: arelentless criticism of the popular media’s manipulation of reality, the dehumanizing<br />

machinery of technology and consumerism, and the jingoistic rhetoric of a fading empire. But even though<br />

Kraus’s followers included Franz Kafka and Walter Benjamin, he remained something of alonely prophet,<br />

and few people today are familiar with his work. Thankfully, Jonathan Franzen is one of them. In The<br />

Kraus Project, Franzen not only presents his definitive new translations of Kraus but annotates them<br />

spectacularly, with supplementary notes from the Kraus scholar Paul Reitter and the Austrian writer<br />

Daniel Kehlmann. Kraus was a notoriously cantankerous and difficult author, and in Franzen he has found<br />

his match: a novelist unafraid to voice unpopular opinions strongly, and a critic capable of untangling<br />

Kraus’s often dense arguments to reveal their relevance to contemporary America.<br />

THE LAIRD OF FORT WILLIAM<br />

TERNIER GORDON, IRENE<br />

High finance, wilderness adventures, violence, and questionable legal tactics all played important roles<br />

in the history of the North West Company. William McGillivray, head of the company from 1804 until<br />

1821, was arguably the most powerful businessman in Canada in the early nineteenth century. William<br />

McGillivray emigrated from the Scottish Highlands to work for his uncle Simon McTavish when he was<br />

twenty years old and became head of the NWC in 1804 upon McTavish’s death. The period from 1805<br />

to 1814 was a time of quick expansion and great prosperity for the company; however, its decline was<br />

even more rapid. It could be argued that the NWC did not merge with the Hudson’s Bay Company in<br />

1821 but rather was swallowed up by it. By the time William died in 1825, the McGillivray family had<br />

been forced into bankruptcy. Set against the background of the history and legacy of the NWC, this<br />

engaging biography tells McGillivray’s complete story, from his early years in Scotland, immigration to<br />

Canada, and fur-trading successes to his eventual downfall.<br />

LAST NIGHT AT THE VIPER ROOM: RIVER PHOENIX AND THE HOLLYWOOD HE LEFT BEHIND<br />

EDWARDS, GAVIN<br />

For a moment in the early 1990s, it felt like the future of American culture was up for grabs. Bill Clinton,<br />

just 47 years old when he moved into the White House, represented a new generation. In music, Nirvana<br />

was selling millions of copies of Nevermind, blowing out the nation’s eardrums in a way not heard since<br />

70s punk rock. In the world of movies, indie film was busting out of art house theaters and into mall<br />

multiplexes. A new generation of leading men was on the rise, many of them with boyish features and<br />

bohemian attitudes: Johnny Depp, Keanu Reeves, Brad Pitt, Christian Slater, Robert Downey Jr., Nicolas<br />

Cage, and Leonardo DiCaprio. Of all of them, perhaps the one with the brightest future was River<br />

Phoenix. Raised in Venezuela under the aegis of the cultish Children of God, 18-year-old River Phoenix<br />

took Hollywood by storm when he starred in Stand By Me, and soon won an Oscar nomination for<br />

Running on Empty. Praised by his peers as the most talented actor of his generation, River came of age<br />

in the spotlight—a teen idol on the fast-track to Hollywood royalty. Yet, on October 31, 1993, at the age of<br />

23, River Phoenix died of a drug overdose in front of West Hollywood’s storied club, the Viper Room, a<br />

tragic ending to a brilliant life, and career, the world had only just begun to grasp.<br />

LAWRENCE IN ARABIA<br />

ANDERSON, SCOTT<br />

The Arab Revolt against the Turks in World War I was, in the words of T.E. Lawrence, "a sideshow to a<br />

sideshow." As a result, the conflict was shaped to a remarkable degree by four men far removed from the<br />

corridors of power. Curt Pruefer was an effete academic attached to the German embassy in Cairo,<br />

whose clandestine role was to foment jihad against British rule. Aaron Aaronsohn was a renowned<br />

agronomist and committed Zionist who gained the trust of the Ottoman governor of Palestine. William<br />

Yale was the fallen scion of the American aristocracy, who traveled the Ottoman Empire on behalf of<br />

Standard Oil, dissembling to the Turks in order gain valuable oil concessions. At the center of it all was<br />

Colonel Thomas Edward Lawrence. In early 1914 he was an archaeologist digging ruins in Syria; by 1919<br />

he was riding into legend at the head of an Arab army, as he fought a rearguard action against his own<br />

government and its imperial ambitions.<br />

LIFE: THE DAY KENNEDY DIED<br />

Fifty years ago on November 22, 1963, in Dallas's Dealey Plaza, John Fitzgerald Kennedy, the 35th<br />

President of the United States, was assassinated while traveling in a motorcade with his wife, Jacqueline.<br />

LIFE magazine, the weekly pictorial chronicle of events in America and throughout the world, was quickly<br />

on the scene. The Kennedys had been our story: Jack and Jackie made the cover in his sailboat before<br />

they were married and he was a fresh-faced senator from Massachusetts, and the White House doors<br />

had remained open to LIFE throughout his presidency: Cecil Stoughton's photographs of Caroline and<br />

John-John in the Oval Office, Jackie's tour of the renovation, tense behind-the-scenes moments during 13<br />

days of the Cuban Missile Crisis-all of this appeared in LIFE. We needed to be in Dallas.<br />

LIVES OF THE FAMILY<br />

CHONG, DENISE<br />

In 2011, Denise Chong set out to collect the history of the earliest Chinese settlers in and around Ottawa,<br />

who made their homes far from any major Chinatown. Many would open cafes, establishments that once<br />

dotted the landscape across the country and were a monument to small-town Canada. This generation of<br />

Chinese immigrants lived at the intersection of the Exclusion Act in Canada, which divided families<br />

between here and China, and 2 momentous upheavals in China: the Japanese invasion and war-time<br />

occupation; and the victory of the Communists, which ultimately led these settlers to sever ties with<br />

China. This book of overlapping stories explores the trajectory of a universal immigrant experience, one of<br />

looking in the rear view mirror while at the same time, travelling toward an uncertain future. Intimate,<br />

haunting and powerful, Lives of the Family reveals the immigrant's tenacity in adapting to a new world.<br />

The definitive portrait of Stephen Harper in power--and of the impact his government is having on<br />

Canada--by this country's most trenchant, influential and surprising political commentator. Stephen<br />

Harper is on his way to becoming one of Canada's most significant prime ministers. He has already been<br />

in power longer than Pearson and Diefenbaker. By the end of this majority term, he'll have caught up to<br />

Brian Mulroney. And with that majority in hand, he's been moving more boldly to build the Canada he<br />

wants and to entrench the Conservatives as the twenty-first century's "natural governing party." In The<br />

Longer I'm Prime Minister, Paul Wells explains Harper not only to Harper supporters but also to readers<br />

who can't believe he is Canada's prime minister. Harper has been elected 3 times and Conservative Party<br />

support grew in every election. As Wells writes, "He could not win without widespread support in the<br />

land...which suggests that Harper has what every successful federal leader has needed to survive over a<br />

long stretch of time: a superior understanding of Canada." Too many people who oppose Harper try to<br />

ignore him or dismiss him or discount what he clearly knows about the Canadian electorate. But as Wells<br />

writes in this authoritative, engaging and sometimes deeply critical account of the man and Canada,<br />

"Harper endures. I figure it is not too soon to try to understand him."<br />

LOOKING FOR PALESTINE<br />

SAID, NAJLA<br />

The daughter of a prominent Palestinian father and a sophisticated Lebanese mother, Najla Said grew up<br />

in New York City, confused and conflicted about her cultural background and identity. Said knew that her<br />

parents identified deeply with their homelands, but growing up in a Manhattan world that was defined<br />

largely by class and conformity, she felt unsure about who she was supposed to be, and was often in<br />

denial of the differences she sensed between her family and those around her. The fact that her father<br />

was the famous intellectual and outspoken Palestinian advocate Edward Said only made things more<br />

complicated. She may have been born a Palestinian Lebanese American, but in Said’s mind she grew up<br />

first as a WASP, having been baptized Episcopalian in Boston and attending the wealthy Upper East Side<br />

girls’ school Chapin, then as a teenage Jew, essentially denying her true roots, even to herself—until,<br />

ultimately, the psychological toll of all this self-hatred began to threaten her health. As she grew older,<br />

making increased visits to Palestine and Beirut, Said’s worldview shifted. The attacks on the World Trade<br />

Center, and some of the ways in which Americans responded, finally made it impossible for Said to<br />

continue to pick and choose her identity, forcing her to see herself and her passions more clearly. Today,<br />

she has become an important voice for second-generation Arab Americans nationwide.<br />

LOST BENEATH THE ICE<br />

COHEN, ANDREW<br />

In 1850, HMS Investigator was sent to search for the lost Franklin expedition. The explorers failed in that<br />

mission, but succeeded in locating the final link of the Northwest Passage route that Franklin had been<br />

seeking. After multiple setbacks and facing death by starvation and scurvy, the crew was rescued by a<br />

Royal Navy sledge team from HMS Resolute, and the ship was abandoned in Mercy Bay. One hundred<br />

and sixty years later, despite all our technological advancements, a mission to the Arctic was still a<br />

formidable challenge, but in 2010 Parks Canada sent a team of underwater archaeologists to locate the<br />

wreck. They found it, still in excellent condition, on the floor of Mercy Bay, off the shore of what is now<br />

Aulavik National Park. This book presents the amazing story of the ongoing exploration of Canada's Arctic<br />

along with the first underwater images of the wreck.<br />

LOVE HAS FORGOTTEN NO ONE<br />

RENARD, GARY R.<br />

In this fascinating book, Gary R. Renard and his Ascended Master teachers, Arten and Pursah, guide you<br />

through a way of dissolving the illusions of time and space and returning to Reality, which is Perfect Love.<br />

This is not love in the way the world commonly thinks of it. It’s an all-encompassing kind of love that is<br />

perfect spirit: innocent, unflawed, immortal, invulnerable, and forever fearless. Real love, which is Divine<br />

in nature, must be experienced, for it is beyond words. Yet words and practice are needed to help lead<br />

you to that experience. The knowledge of what it’s like to be one with your Source is the awesome<br />

mystical experience that’s been described by Masters throughout the ages. It’s the greatest sense of<br />

awareness anyone can have while still appearing to be in this world. This book will teach you exactly how<br />

to get to that experience, which upon the end of your physical existence will become your permanent<br />

reality. You will find that, indeed, love has forgotten no one.<br />

LOVE SENSE: THE SCIENCE OF ROMANTIC RELATIONSHIPS<br />

JOHNSON, SUE<br />

Every day, we hear of relationships failing and questions of whether humans are meant to be<br />

monogamous. LOVE SENSE presents new scientific evidence that tells us that humans are meant to<br />

mate for life. Dr. Johnson explains that romantic love is an attachment bond, just like that between mother<br />

and child, and shows us how to develop our "love sense"--our ability to develop long-lasting relationships.<br />

Love is not the least bit illogical or random, but actually an ordered and wise recipe for survival. LOVE<br />

SENSE covers the three stages of a relationship and how to best weather them; the intelligence of<br />

emotions and the logic of love; the physical and psychological benefits of secure love; and much more.<br />

THE MAP AND THE TERRITORY<br />

GREENSPAN, ALAN<br />

Like all of us, though few so visibly, Alan Greenspan was forced by the financial crisis of 2008 to question<br />

some fundamental assumptions about risk management and economic forecasting. How had our models<br />

so utterly failed us? To answer this question, Alan Greenspan embarked on a rigorous and far-reaching<br />

multiyear examination of how Homo economicus predicts the economic future, and how it can predict it<br />

better. Economic risk is a fact of life in every realm, from home to business to government at all levels.<br />

Whether we're conscious of it or not, we make wagers on the future virtually every day, one way or<br />

another. Very often, however, we're steering by out-of-date maps, when we're not driven by factors<br />

entirely beyond our conscious control. The Map and the Territory is nothing less than an effort to update<br />

our forecasting conceptual grid using twenty-first-century technologies.<br />

THE MASSEY MURDER<br />

GRAY, CHARLOTTE<br />

In February 1915, a member of one of Canada’s wealthiest families was shot and killed on the front porch<br />

of his home in Toronto as he was returning from work. Carrie Davies, an 18-year-old domestic servant,<br />

quickly confessed. But who was the victim here? Charles “Bert” Massey, a scion of a famous family, or the<br />

frightened, perhaps mentally unstable Carrie, a penniless British immigrant? When the brilliant lawyer<br />

Hartley Dewart, QC, took on her case, his grudge against the powerful Masseys would fuel a dramatic<br />

trial that pitted the old order against the new, wealth and privilege against virtue and honest hard work.<br />

Set against a backdrop of the Great War in Europe and the changing faceof a nation, this sensational<br />

crime is brought to vivid life for the first time.<br />

THE MEN WHO UNITED THE STATES<br />

WINCHESTER, SIMON<br />

For more than two centuries, E pluribus unum—Out of many, one—has been featured on America’s<br />

official government seals and stamped on its currency. But how did America become “one nation,<br />

indivisible”? What unified a growing number of disparate states into the modern country we recognize<br />

today? In this monumental history, Simon Winchester addresses these questions, bringing together the<br />

breathtaking achievements that helped forge and unify America and the pioneers who have toiled<br />

fearlessly to discover, connect, and bond the citizens and geography of the U.S.A. from its beginnings.<br />

Winchester follows in the footsteps of America’s most essential explorers, thinkers, and innovators,<br />

including Lewis and Clark and their Corps of Discovery Expedition to the Pacific Coast, the builders of the<br />

first transcontinental telegraph, and the powerful civil engineer behind the Interstate Highway System. He<br />

treks vast swaths of territory, from Pittsburgh to Portland; Rochester to San Francisco; Truckee to<br />

Laramie; Seattle to Anchorage, introducing these fascinating men and others—some familiar, some<br />

forgotten, some hardly known—who played a pivotal role in creating today’s United States. Throughout,<br />

he ponders whether the historic work of uniting the States has succeeded, and to what degree.<br />

METALLICA: THE COMPLETE ILLUSTRATED HISTORY<br />

POPOFF, MARTIN<br />

Formed in Los Angeles in 1981, Metallica has become the single bestselling heavy metal act in music<br />

history, with more than 100 million album sales to its credit. Now based in the San Francisco Bay Area,<br />

the band remains hugely popular worldwide: in 2009, Metallica’s 1991 self-titled LP became the<br />

bestselling album of the SoundScan era. In this book, the first complete illustrated treatment of the band,<br />

acclaimed heavy metal journalist Martin Popoff leads a roster of respected heavy metal writers to take on<br />

Metallica’s entire history, analyzing each of the group’s ten studio albums (including 2011’s LuLu<br />

collaboration with Lou Reed) and providing a complete discography. More than 300 images complement<br />

extensive band stories: their formative years spent woodshedding in the clubs of Los Angeles, tragedies<br />

like the death of founding bassist Cliff Burton, the triumphs of multiple platinum recordings, personnel<br />

changes like the departures of Dave Mustaine and Jason Newsted, and tours covering the world over.<br />

Live-performance and candid off-stage photographs are accompanied by a stunning selection of<br />

memorabilia, including gig posters, concert tees, picture sleeves, backstage passes, buttons, ticket stubs,<br />

and more.<br />

MISTRESS OF EMPIRES<br />

WILLIAMS, KATE<br />

Josephine de Beauharnais began as a kept woman of Paris and became the most powerful woman in<br />

France. She was no beauty, her teeth were rotten, and she was six years older than her husband, but one<br />

twitch of her skirt could bring running the man who terrorized Europe. The tale of Napoleon and<br />

Josephine is one of the most famous love stories in the world. They were bound together by a scorching<br />

erotic fascination. With her, he became the greatest man in Europe, the Supreme Emperor. And yet,<br />

envisioning Josephine as the calm consort on the sofa obscures many of the most fascinating aspects of<br />

her story. How did she rise to such an astonishing position? How did she perfect the art of the beautiful,<br />

sweet chameleon - and thus fool so many? What and whom did she sacrifice on the bonfire of her<br />

ambition? France in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century was a country in such extreme flux<br />

that everything was accessible - and possible. But it took an incredible woman to seize the opportunities.<br />

Mistress of Empires shows how the little girl from Martinique became the Queen of France.<br />

MODERN NATIVE FEASTS<br />

GEORGE, ANDREW JR.<br />

Native American cuisine comes of age in this elegant, contemporary collection that reinterprets and<br />

updates traditional Native recipes with modern, healthy twists. Andrew George Jr. was head chef for<br />

aboriginal foods at the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver; his imaginative menus reflect the diverse new<br />

culinary landscape while being mindful of an ages-old reverence for the land and sea, reflecting the<br />

growing interest in a niche cuisine that is rapidly moving into the mainstream to become the "next big<br />

thing" among food trends. Andrew also works actively at making Native foods healthier and more<br />

nutritious, given that Native peoples suffer from diabetes at twice the rates of non-Natives; his recipes are<br />

lighter, less caloric, and include Asian touches, such as bison ribs with Thai spices, and a sushi roll with<br />

various cooked fish wrapped in nori. Other dishes include venison barley soup, wild berry crumble, seas<br />

asparagus salad, and buffalo tourtière.<br />

THE MOUNTAIN<br />

VIESTURS, ED<br />

The world’s most famous mountain, Everest remains for serious high-altitude climbers an ultimate goal.<br />

Ed Viesturs has gone on eleven expeditions to Everest, reaching the summit seven times. He’s spent<br />

more than two years of his life on the mountain. No climber today is better poised to survey Everest’s<br />

various ascents—both personal and historic. In The Mountain, Viesturs delivers just that: riveting you-arethere<br />

accounts of his own climbs as well as vivid narratives of some of the more famous and infamous<br />

climbs throughout the last century, when the honor of nations often hung in the balance, depending on<br />

which climbers summited first. In addition to his own experiences, Viesturs sheds light on the fate of<br />

Mallory and Irvine, whose 1924 disappearance just 800 feet from the top remains one of mountaineering’s<br />

greatest mysteries, and on the multiply tragic last days of Rob Hall and Scott Fischer in 1996, the stuff of<br />

which Into Thin Air was made. Informed by the experience of one who has truly been there, The Mountain<br />

affords a rare glimpse into that place on earth where Heraclitus’s maxim—character is destiny—is proved<br />

time and again. Complete with gorgeous photos of Everest, many of which were taken by Viesturs<br />

himself, and shots taken on some of the legendary historic climbs, The Mountain is an immensely<br />

appealing book for active and armchair climber alike.<br />

about the composer’s health, wealth, religion, and relationships. Always engaging, Johnson offers readers<br />

and music lovers a superb examination of Mozart and his glorious music, which is still performed every<br />

MR. SELDEN’S MAP OF CHINA<br />

BROOK, TIMOTHY<br />

In 1659, a vast and unusual map of China arrived in the Bodleian Library, Oxford. It was bequeathed by<br />

John Selden, a London business lawyer, political activist, former convict, MP, and the city’s first<br />

Orientalist scholar. Largely ignored, it remained in the bowels of the library, until called up by an<br />

inquisitive reader. When Timothy Brook saw it in 2009, he realized that the Selden Map was “a puzzle<br />

that had to be solved”: an exceptional artefact so unsettlingly modern-looking it could almost be a forgery.<br />

But it was genuine, and what it has to tell us is astonishing. It shows China, not cut off from the world, but<br />

a participant in the embryonic networks of global trade that fuelled the rise of Europe — and now power<br />

China’s ascent.<br />

MUSTANG: FIFTY YEARS<br />

FARR, DONALD<br />

In the early 1960s, Lee Iacocca—then director of the Ford division at Ford Motor Company—convinced<br />

Henry Ford II to produce a sporty four-seat car aimed at the emerging youth market. That car, essentially<br />

a reconfigured and re-skinned Falcon economy car, became the Ford Mustang, and it changed the<br />

automotive world like no other car before or since. In Mustang: Fifty Years, acclaimed Mustang writer<br />

Donald Farr celebrates this unbroken lineage of muscle: its phenomenal first-year sales, the new “pony<br />

car” genre it pioneered, and subsequent models that include the Mustang GT, Shelby GT350, Shelby<br />

GT500, Super Cobra Jet, Boss 302 and Boss 429—all part of a line of American performance cars that<br />

continues on to this day. With 400 photos of the USA’s iconic sports car and released in tandem with the<br />

Mustang’s 50th anniversary, Mustang: Fifty Years is a must on the bookshelf of any gearhead.<br />

MY LAST FIGHT: THE TRUE STORY OF A HOCKEY ROCK STAR<br />

MCCARTY, DARREN<br />

Looking back on a memorable career, Darren McCarty recounts his time as one of the most visible and<br />

beloved members of the Detroit Red Wings as well as his personal struggles with addiction, finances, and<br />

women and his daily battles to overcome. As a member of four Red Wings’ Stanley Cup–winning teams,<br />

McCarty played the role of enforcer from 1993 to 2004 and returning again in 2008 and 2009. Yet this<br />

autobiography details what may have endeared him most to his fans: the honest, open way he has dealt<br />

with his struggles in life off the ice. Whether dealing with substance abuse, bankruptcy, divorce, or the<br />

death of his father, Darren McCarty has always seemed to persevere.<br />

MY LIFE IN MIDDLEMARCH<br />

MEAD, REBECCA<br />

Rebecca Mead was a young woman in a coastal town of England when she first read George Eliot's<br />

Middlemarch. After gaining admission to Oxford, and moving to the United States to become a journalist,<br />

through several love affairs and then marriage and family, Rebecca Mead reread Middlemarch. The<br />

novel, which Virginia Woolf famously described as "one of the few English novels written for grown-up<br />

people," offered Mead something that modern life and literature did not. In this wise and revealing work of<br />

biography, reporting, and memoir, Rebecca Mead leads the reader into the life that her favorite book<br />

made for her, as well as the many lives the novel has led since it was written. Employing a structure that<br />

perfectly mirrors that of the novel, My Life in Middlemarch takes the themes of Eliot's novel and brings<br />

them into the world. Offering both a fascinating reading of Eliot's biography and an uncanny portrait of the<br />

ways in which Mead's life echoes that of the author herself, My Life in Middlemarch is a book for every<br />

ardent reader who wonders about the power of literature to shape our lives.<br />

MY STORY<br />

SMART, ELIZABETH<br />

On June 5, 2002, fourteen-year-old Elizabeth Smart, the daughter of a close-knit Mormon family, was<br />

taken from her home in the middle of the night by religious fanatic, Brian David Mitchell and his wife,<br />

Wanda Barzee. She was kept chained, dressed in disguise, repeatedly raped, and told she and her family<br />

would be killed if she tried to escape. After her rescue on March 12, 2003, she rejoined her family and<br />

worked to pick up the pieces of her life. Now for the first time, in her memoir, MY STORY, she tells of the<br />

constant fear she endured every hour, her courageous determination to maintain hope, and how she<br />

devised a plan to manipulate her captors and convinced them to return to Utah, where she was rescued<br />

minutes after arriving. Smart explains how her faith helped her stay sane in the midst of a nightmare and<br />

how she found the strength to confront her captors at their trial and see that justice was served. In the<br />

nine years after her rescue, Smart transformed from victim to advocate, traveling the country and working<br />

to educate, inspire and foster change. She has created a foundation to help prevent crimes against<br />

children and is a frequent public speaker. In 2012, she married Matthew Gilmour, whom she met doing<br />

mission work in Paris for her church, in a fairy tale wedding that made the cover of People magazine.<br />

NAMES FOR THE SEA<br />

MOSS, SARAH<br />

Sarah Moss had a childhood dream of moving to Iceland, sustained by a wild summer there when she<br />

was nineteen. In 2009, she saw an advertisement for a job at the University of Iceland and applied on a<br />

whim, despite having two young children and a comfortable life in Kent. The resulting adventure was<br />

shaped by Iceland's economic collapse, which halved the value of her salary, by the eruption of<br />

Eyjafjallajv?kull and by a collection of new friends, including a poet who saw the only bombs fall on<br />

Iceland in 1943, a woman who speaks to elves and a chef who guided Sarah's family around the<br />

intricacies of Icelandic cuisine. Moss explored hillsides of boiling mud and volcanic craters and learned to<br />

drive like an Icelander on the unsurfaced roads that link remote farms and fishing villages in the far north.<br />

She watched the northern lights and the comings and goings of migratory birds, and as the weeks and<br />

months went by, she and her family learned new ways to live.<br />

NEUTRINO HUNTERS<br />

JAYAWARDHANA, R.<br />

Every second of every day and night, many trillions of neutrinospass through your body. But most people<br />

had never heard of them until they made headlines recently for possibly travelling faster than light.<br />

Luckily, these ghostly particles—celebrated in a delightful John Updike poem and (falsely) blamed for<br />

heating the Earth’s core in the Hollywood disaster movie 2012—do no harm and leave no trace. They are<br />

so difficult to pin down that scientists must use Olympic-sizepools of cleaning fluid deep underground and<br />

kilometre-thick sheets of Antarctic ice to catch just a handful. Yet the shadowy neutrinos hold the key to<br />

unlocking some of the biggest mysteries of the universe: What was the universe like seconds after the Big<br />

Bang? Why is anti-matter so rare? What triggers exploding stars?<br />

THE NHL<br />

JENISH, D'ARCY<br />

The National Hockey League -- born in a Montreal hotel room on November 26, 1917 -- has much to<br />

celebrate as it approaches its centenary. Millions of fans from Montreal to Miami and Edmonton to<br />

Anaheim attend NHL games leach year, millions more watch on TV and the league pays its best players<br />

multi-million annual salaries. Over the course of its first century, the NHL's fortunes have ebbed and<br />

flowed. It has experienced setbacks and triumphs and innumerable crises. The league has awarded many<br />

franchises only to see some of them falter, fail and fold. The board of governors - which has included rich<br />

eccentrics and at least one future convict - has sometimes been fractured by men who loathed each<br />

other. How on earth has the NHL survived? The answer lies in the remarkable fact that it has had only five<br />

presidents and one commissioner. Two of these chiefs were stop-gaps. For the balance of league's<br />

ninety-plus years, four men have shaped and guided its fortunes and controlled the tough, hard-nosed,<br />

sometimes unruly owners who constituted the board of governors. This is the story of two perpetual<br />

struggles -- the one on the ice and the one going on behind the scenes to keep the whole enterprise<br />

afloat. D'Arcy Jenish was granted unprecedented access to previously unpublished league files, including<br />

revelatory minutes of board meetings, and conducted dozens of hours of interviews with league<br />

executives, including commissioner Gary Bettman and former president John Ziegler, as well as well as<br />

owners, coaches, general managers and player representatives. He now reveals for the first time the true<br />

story behind some of the most significant events of the contemporary era.<br />

NORMAN MAILER: A DOUBLE LIFE<br />

LENNON, J. MICHAEL<br />

Norman Mailer was the one of the most famous writers of his generation, a figure as notorious for his<br />

stormy romances and quarrels with other writers as he was respected for his numerous bestsellers and<br />

literary accolades. In this candid biography, J. Michael Lennon brings a wealth of research informed by<br />

his years of personal acquaintance with Mailer, as well as the cooperation of Mailer’s family, to reveal the<br />

life and work of an American legend. In a career that produced eleven bestsellers, Mailer lived through<br />

every great postwar event of the twentieth century and commented on many of them. From his initial<br />

success with his World War II novel The Naked and the Dead, through his observations on the convulsive<br />

1960s in the Pulitzer Prize-winning Armies of the Night, to his own quixotic run for mayor of New York<br />

City, his life was a reflection of the turbulent times in which he lived. A man of sharp complexities, he was<br />

loved and loathed, the most prominent public intellectual of his time, at once an outspoken critic of the<br />

Vietnam War and the bête noir of the women’s rights movement. Lennon explores Mailer’s dualities:<br />

journalist and activist, devoted family man (he was married six times and was the father of nine children)<br />

and notorious philanderer, intellectual and fighter, writer and public figure, all of them evolving through<br />

Mailer’s self-conscious effort to create a distinctive identity for himself.<br />

same engaging humour he exhibits on stage, television, and film, he takes the reader in bizarre and<br />

hilarious new directions. Imagine A Tale of Two Cities in which a coyote gets his revenge on a road runner<br />

or Herman Melville''s Moby Dick featuring a killer toupee. Imagine Sherlock Holmes performing stand-up<br />

Starting with his jump from the Oshawa Generals to the NHL's Boston Bruins, Sports Illustrated began indepth<br />

coverage of the career of Bobby Orr, a player who remains, over thirty years after his retirement,<br />

one of the greatest hockey players of all time. Orr completely changed the way hockey was played, taking<br />

it from a game of grinding defence to a rushing, high-scoring affair. Along the way, Orr set scoring<br />

records, won individual awards, and led his Bruins to two Stanley Cups before a bad knee began costing<br />

him games. He tried two major comebacks in the late seventies, showing a perseverance and dedication<br />

unmatched in the game, but ultimately was forced into an early retirement at the age of thirty.<br />

modern fiction and movies. With its consummately modern hero, full of guile and wit, always prepared to<br />

reinvent himself, the Odyssey is perfectly suited to our times. Mitchell’s translation brings it to life for those<br />

who have never read it before or have tried and given up.<br />

OIL AND HONEY<br />

MCKIBBEN, BILL<br />

Bill McKibben is not a person you'd expect to find handcuffed and behind bars, but that's where he found<br />

himself in the summer of 2011 after leading the largest civil disobedience in thirty years, protesting the<br />

Keystone XL pipeline in front of the White House. With the Arctic melting, the Midwest in drought, and<br />

Irene scouring the Atlantic, McKibben recognized that action was needed if solutions were to be found.<br />

Some of those would come at the local level, where McKibben joins forces with a Vermont beekeeper<br />

raising his hives as part of the growing trend toward local food. Other solutions would come from a much<br />

larger fight against the fossil-fuel industry as a whole. Oil and Honey is McKibben’s account of these two<br />

necessary and mutually reinforcing sides of the global climate fight—from the center of the maelstrom<br />

and from the growing hive of small-scale local answers. With empathy and passion he makes the case for<br />

a renewed commitment on both levels, telling the story of raising one year’s honey crop and building a<br />

social movement that’s still cresting.<br />

With oil and gas behemoth Enbridge Inc.’s Northern Gateway proposal nearing approval, supertankers<br />

loaded with two million barrels of oil may soon be plying the waters from northern British Columbia down<br />

Nations who have lived there for millennia, and some of the world’s most biodiverse waters—one spill is<br />

all it will take to erase ten thousand years of evolution. Arno Kopecky and his companions travel aboard a<br />

forty-one-foot sailboat exploring the pristine route—a profoundly volatile marine environment that<br />

registered 1,275 marine vessel incidents—mechanical failures, collisions, explosions, groundings, and<br />

sinkings—between 1999 and 2009 alone. Neither Kopecky nor the boat’s owner have ever sailed before,<br />

yet they brave these waters alone when their captain leaves them part way through the journey.<br />

ONE DAY IN AUGUST<br />

O'KEEFE, DAVID<br />

The Dieppe Raid--the darkest day in Canadian military history--has been one of the most perplexing<br />

mysteries of WWII, when almost 4,000 Canadian amphibious troops stormed the small French port town,<br />

only to be ambushed by the waiting Germans, slaughtered, wounded or captured. This catastrophe,<br />

coupled with the 7 decades-long mystery surrounding the reason for the operation, left a legacy of<br />

bitterness and recriminations and controverial charges ranging from incompetence to conspiracy.<br />

O'Keefe's detective-like research over 15 years in the Intelligence archives of 5 countries now reveals that<br />

it was a vitally secret "pinch raid," organized by British Naval Intelligence and the Joint Intelligence<br />

Committee. The mission: under cover of a raid to secretly steal the German code books that would unlock<br />

the Enigma cipher machine that held the key to the German High Command's plans. One of the key<br />

figures behind the mission, along with Mountbatten and Churchill, was Commander Ian Fleming, waiting<br />

in a ship off-shore for the code books that might have saved countless lives and shortened the war by<br />

some years.<br />

one of the greatest hockey players—maybe the greatest hockey player—of all time. He remains the only<br />

defenceman to have won the Art Ross Trophy league scoring title—twice—and still holds the record for<br />

most points and assists in that position. He was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame at the age of<br />

thirty-one—the youngest living player to receive that honour. Today, he is president of the Orr Hockey<br />

Group agency. He has been invested with the Order of Canada and the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond<br />

Jubilee Medal, and in 2010 was one of eight athletes who bore the Olympic flag during the opening<br />

ceremonies of the Vancouver Olympics.<br />

OUR HIDDEN MOTIVES<br />

GNEEZY, URI<br />

In this groundbreaking book, lauded behavioural economists Uri Gneezy and John List uncover what<br />

motivates people and, most importantly, why and how the right incentives can work to change behaviour<br />

and effect the world around us. Called the “Indiana Joneses of economics” because of their unorthodox<br />

approach, Gneezy and List have travelled the world conducting field experiments in order to study<br />

people’s actions in their natural environments. Through their original research, Gneezy and List have<br />

sought the answers to everything from life’s big-issue questions—the problems of discrimination, gender<br />

inequality, low rates of charitable giving—to everyday business issues such as low workplace productivity<br />

and price setting, all through the lenses of motivation and incentive. Their work is both revolutionary and<br />

immensely practical. It allows us to take action on big and little problems in ways that will no longer rely<br />

on assumptions but on the evidence of what really works to create change.<br />

PRACTICE TO DECEIVE<br />

RULE, ANN<br />

One wintery night on quiet Whidbey Island off the coast of Washington, Russ Douglas spent Christmas<br />

with his estranged wife, Brenna. She agreed to let him visit his children even though they were headed for<br />

divorce. He left Brenna Douglas’s home in Langley on the morning of December 26, 2003 to run some<br />

errands. But hours passed and Russ didn’t return home as he’d promised his children he would. Nor did<br />

he come back during the night. On the afternoon of December 27, a couple walking down a rural road<br />

noticed a vehicle in the driveway of a cabin. Since many of the places were vacant during the winter,<br />

neighbors kept an eye out for strangers. Curious, they walked up the cabin’s driveway to check inside.<br />

They saw a man in the front seat, dead from a single gunshot wound to the head. They immediately put in<br />

a call to the Island County Sheriff’s Office. The dead man was easily identified; it was Russell Douglas.<br />

But what came next in this homicide case surprised law enforcement and captured the attention of the<br />

entire town when the suspects included an aging beauty queen, her guitar-teacher lover, and Russell’s<br />

widow, Brenna, owner of the local beauty salon. With her trademark aplomb, Ann Rule unravels the<br />

fascinating story of a murder, a small town, and a number of potential killers.<br />

THE PRINCE, THE PRINCESS AND THE PERFECT MURDER<br />

ROSE, ANDREW<br />

The royal family's darkest secret and the establishment cover-up. Never told before, this is the story of<br />

Edward, the Prince of Wales, the true love of his life, and the murder of an Arab playboy. It takes place in<br />

maisons de rendevous, luxurious chateaux in the French countryside providing hospitality for the British<br />

upper classes, the richest food, the finest wines and the most beautiful women - in Paris in the Ritz and<br />

the demi-monde - where many of the women came from - and an exclusive location in London where the<br />

murder was committed. This major royal scandal, superbly covered up by the Royal Household and the<br />

judiciary has remained secret ever since.<br />

more different. Sure, many were graceful and benevolent leaders—but just as many were ruthless in their<br />

quest for power, and all of them had skeletons rattling in their royal closets.<br />

THE PRIORITY LIST<br />

MENASCHE, DAVID<br />

At thirty-four years old, David Menasche was diagnosed with brain cancer. Six years later and fifteen<br />

years after he began teaching, Menasche suffered a catastrophic seizure that began to steal his vision,<br />

memories, mobility, and perhaps most tragically of all—his ability to continue teaching. But teaching is<br />

something David Menasche can’t quit. Undaunted by the difficult road ahead of him, he decided to end<br />

his treatments and make life his classroom. Cancer had taken his past and would certainly, at some point,<br />

take his future, but he wouldn't allow it to take his present. He put out a call on Facebook and within hours<br />

of posting his plan to travel the country, former students now living in more than fifty cities replied with<br />

offers to help and couches to sleep on.<br />

THE REASON FOR MY HOPE<br />

GRAHAM, BILLY<br />

Who would refuse rescue? This is the question Billy Graham asks throughout this book. The answer is<br />

sometimes surprising because there are actually people who refuse to be saved, even if they are in a<br />

hopeless situation. Why? Each chapter draws the reader in by posing questions for contemplation using<br />

relevant illustrations about what the world thinks in contrast to what the Bible says. As Mr. Graham has<br />

expressed for decades, his purpose is to engage the reader in considering his or her life in light of the<br />

here and now and the hereafter. Who would refuse rescue from a plane crash, a sinking boat, an<br />

automobile fire, or an assassin’s bullet? True accounts are given that cause readers to ask what they<br />

think and how they would respond to similar experiences and to ultimately bring them to life’s most<br />

important question.<br />

REBEL WITHOUT A PAUSE: THE NICK TERNETTE STORY<br />

TERNETTE, NICK<br />

Rebel Without A Pause is the autobiography of Winnipeg’s best-known and most persistent political<br />

activist, Nick Ternette. For over forty years, Nick was one of the loudest voices of the Left, who ran for<br />

mayor multiple times and never shied away from asking elected officials tough questions. A champion of<br />

the rights of the poor and the disabled, sustainable ecology and public transit as well as a leader in<br />

Winnipeg’s peace movement, Nick was a thorn in the side of conservative politicians and city official for<br />

decades. Written before his death in March 2013, Rebel Without A Pause invites us into the personal life<br />

and political memories of one of Winnipeg’s most cherished citizens.<br />

RETIREMENT IN CANADA<br />

KLASSEN, THOMAS R.<br />

A century ago, the average Canadian lifespan was 60; today, we can expect to live 20 years longer than<br />

that. And recent generations have witnessed other major social shifts in Canada, from women entering<br />

the workforce to alterations in traditional career patterns, from evolutions in the once-inviolable nuclear<br />

family to the decline of employer pension schemes. As the arc of our lives continues to change, so too will<br />

the experience of our retirement. An important factor in the changing reality of retirement is the influence<br />

of the baby boom generation, the demographic group born in the wake of World War II, which comprises<br />

some 30 percent of the Canadian population. As this generation has transformed society, challenging<br />

gender and ethnic stereotypes and redefining popular culture, so will it transform the choices and<br />

challenges associated with retirement. But as Thomas R. Klassen-a professor of political science and<br />

public policy and also a well-known media commentator-notes, this generation is not a homogeneous<br />

block, and there are few constants in the preferences of those near retirement, as well as those already<br />

retired. Unlike the past, the future of retirement holds a wide range of possibilities. This short, accessible<br />

book brings together what we know about the changes taking place, as well as what we can predict<br />

and detailing the family's progress as it grows from a pair of turn-of-the-century newlyweds into a<br />

populous, vibrant clan of hopeful young men and women on the brink of their brilliant destinies. This is a<br />

piece of Americana that readers will treasure.<br />

SAVAGE 1986-2011<br />

MOORE, NATHANIEL<br />

Nate’s nervous mother chews gum at warp speed and has a bob that resembles Darth Vader’s helmet.<br />

His icy father dabbles part-time in the death trade at a funeral home after working for a decade in the<br />

insurance racket. His older sister Holly is always lurking in the shadows or away at school. Nate, a<br />

creative, messy, and anxious teen, has chosen Randy Savage as his hero. As he finishes high school, the<br />

world to which Savage belongs is quickly waning in popularity, and Nate begins to see the wrestler’s<br />

downfall mirrored in his own life. But not until the family dismantles for good in 1994 does Nate’s life truly<br />

begin to fracture. Savage 1986-2011 chronicles the middle-class implosion of Nate’s nuclear family,<br />

bracketed by July 1986 when he first saw Randy Savage in person and the wrestle’s sudden death in<br />

May 2011. When Savage dies, Nate is freed from beliefs once a source of beauty and escape T\that had<br />

come to constrict him, fusing him to a moribund past? The novel is about the blurred lines between child<br />

and adult roles and the ever-changing landscape of interior heroism. Whether dealing with a family’s<br />

economic turbulence, the scarring effects of teenage love, or creating a new family order, Moore revisits,<br />

remasters, and repackages a twenty-five year family odyssey with guts, honesty, and love.<br />

SAVING LAKE WINNIPEG<br />

SANDFORD, ROBERT WILLIAM<br />

In February of 2013, as reported by major media from all around the world, Lake Winnipeg was<br />

recognized by the Global Nature Fund as the worlds Threatened Lake of the Year for 2013. It is not just<br />

Manitoba and Canada, however, that deserve a black eye as a result of Lake Winnipeg landing up on this<br />

dreadful shortlist. While representative of serious economic threats to the economy of the Central Great<br />

Plains region in both Canada and the United States, the condition of Lake Winnipeg is a symbol of a<br />

much larger problem. The cyano-bacteria that now form huge blooms in Lake Winnipeg each summer are<br />

among the oldest known photosynthetic micro-organisms. Recent research demonstrates that the toxin<br />

this bacteria produces has been now been detected in water bodies all across Canada, at levels<br />

exceeding maximum guidelines in every province. The deteriorating condition of Lake Winnipeg and the<br />

pervasive presence of these toxins is a challenge to the future vitality of our crucial agricultural sector,<br />

and thus an issue of growing national health and economic concern.<br />

SCARCITY<br />

MULLAINATHAN, SENDHIL<br />

Why do successful people get things done at the last minute? Why does poverty persist? Why do<br />

organizations get stuck firefighting? Why do the lonely find it hard to make friends? These questions<br />

seem unconnected, yet Sendhil Mullainathan and Eldar Shafir show that they are all are examples of a<br />

mind-set produced by scarcity. Drawing on cutting-edge research from behavioral science and<br />

economics, Mullainathan and Shafir show that scarcity creates a similar psychology for everyone<br />

struggling to manage with less than they need. Busy people fail to manage their time efficiently for the<br />

same reasons the poor and those maxed out on credit cards fail to manage their money. The dynamics of<br />

scarcity reveal why dieters find it hard to resist temptation, why students and busy executives mismanage<br />

their time, and why sugarcane farmers are smarter after harvest than before. Once we start thinking in<br />

terms of scarcity and the strategies it imposes, the problems of modern life come into sharper focus.<br />

Mullainathan and Shafir discuss how scarcity affects our daily lives, recounting anecdotes of their own<br />

foibles and making surprising connections that bring this research alive. Their book provides a new way of<br />

understanding why the poor stay poor and the busy stay busy, and it reveals not only how scarcity leads<br />

us astray but also how individuals and organizations can better manage scarcity for greater satisfaction<br />

and success.<br />

THE SHIFT<br />

JOHNSON, TORY<br />

For Tory Johnson, weight was always an issue; although she felt ashamed of how she looked, Tory could<br />

never find the will to change. When a network executive warned her that if she didn't lose weight her<br />

television career could be in jeopardy, Tory experienced something profound: A Shift. She knew she didn't<br />

just "want" to change, she "needed" to change. "The Shift" begins with this eye-opening incident and<br />

follows Tory on her weight-loss journey. Tory creates a plan, makes a list of things she is willing to<br />

sacrifice, and teaches herself the realities of self-discipline.<br />

SILENCE: A CHRISTIAN HISTORY<br />

MACCULLOCH, DIARMID<br />

How should one speak to God? Are our prayers more likely to be heard if we offer them quietly at home or<br />

loudly in church? How can we really know if God is listening? From the earliest days, Christians have<br />

struggled with these questions. Their varied answers have defined the boundaries of Christian faith and<br />

established the language of our most intimate appeals for guidance or forgiveness. MacCulloch shows<br />

how Jesus chose to emphasize silence as an essential part of his message and how silence shaped the<br />

great medieval monastic communities of Europe. He also examines the darker forms of religious silence,<br />

from the church’s embrace of slavery and its muted reaction to the Holocaust to the cover-up by Catholic<br />

authorities of devastating sexual scandals. A groundbreaking work that will change our understanding of<br />

the most fundamental wish to be heard by God, Silence gives voice to the greatest mysteries of faith.<br />

SMARTER THAN YOU THINK<br />

THOMPSON, CLIVE<br />

It's undeniable—technology is changing the way we think. But is it for the better? Amid a chorus of<br />

doomsayers, Clive Thompson delivers a resounding "yes." The Internet age has produced a radical new<br />

style of human intelligence, worthy of both celebration and analysis. We learn more and retain it longer,<br />

write and think with global audiences, and even gain an ESP-like awareness of the world around us.<br />

Modern technology is making us smarter, better connected, and often deeper—both as individuals and as<br />

a society. In Smarter Than You Think Thompson shows that every technological innovation—from the<br />

written word to the printing press to the telegraph—has provoked the very same anxieties that plague us<br />

today. We panic that life will never be the same, that our attentions are eroding, that culture is being<br />

trivialized. But as in the past, we adapt—learning to use the new and retaining what’s good of the old.<br />

Thompson introduces us to a cast of extraordinary characters who augment their minds in inventive ways.<br />

Our thinking will continue to evolve as newer tools enter our lives. Smarter Than You Think embraces and<br />

extols this transformation, presenting an exciting vision of the present and the future.<br />

SPIN<br />

VERONI, CLIVE<br />

In the early twentieth century political operatives did their work in the backroom, a shady place of secret<br />

deals and dark arts. By the middle of the century, the politicos were heading to Madison Avenue to learn<br />

the techniques of mass communication and persuasion. Today, they have moved from the dim light of the<br />

backroom to the bright lights of the war room, the central command for political campaigns. And along the<br />

way the pupil has surpassed the teacher. Aided by masses of data, sophisticated computer modelling,<br />

and smart manipulation of social media, political strategists are reshaping the way voters think. The<br />

strategies being used to influence our choices at the ballot box will soon be used to influence our choices<br />

in the grocery store. Drawing on political and marketing stories from North America, Europe, and beyond,<br />

Spin gives readers an insider’s view of this stunning turnaround.<br />

STEVE NASH<br />

FESCHUK, DAVE<br />

A small man in a big man's game, a white man in a game dominated by black men, a rare Canadian in a<br />

US-based industry, the unlikely rise of Steve Nash, from Victoria high school to Hollywood hardwood, is<br />

compelling proof that great things await those who refuse to accept less of themselves. Nearly 2 decades<br />

into a Hall of Fame-bound career, Nash is a 2-time MVP, an 8-time all-star and wearer of one of the<br />

league's top-selling jerseys. And no one but Nash saw it coming. With the combination of wit and<br />

comprehensive reporting that distinguished Leafs AbomiNation, Feschuk and Grange tell the<br />

extraordinary story of drive, confidence, commitment and learning to do without that post-game beer that<br />

turned a Canadian's improbable NBA dream into the stuff of sporting legend. They convincingly bust a<br />

host of oft-repeated myths. That Nash is an inferior athlete is one: he might be one of the best athletes in<br />

the world, when factors like coordination, vision, balance and work ethic are given weight alongside size,<br />

speed and power. The myth that he overcame his upbringing in Canada to make it in the NBA is another:<br />

Growing up in Victoria, B.C., in the mid-1980s was more likely why he turned into the player he did.<br />

STILL FOOLIN' 'EM<br />

CRYSTAL, BILLY<br />

Billy Crystal is turning 65, and he’s not happy about it. With his trademark wit and heart, he outlines the<br />

absurdities and challenges that come with growing old, from insomnia to memory loss to leaving dinners<br />

with half your meal on your shirt. In humorous chapters like “Buying the Plot” and “Nodding Off,” Crystal<br />

not only catalogues his physical gripes, but offers a road map to his 77 million fellow baby boomers who<br />

are arriving at this milestone age with him. He also looks back at the most powerful and memorable<br />

moments of his long and storied life, from entertaining his relatives as a kid in Long Beach, Long Island,<br />

his years doing stand-up in the Village, up through his legendary stint at Saturday Night Live, When Harry<br />

Met Sally, and his long run as host of the Academy Awards. Readers get a front-row seat to his one-day<br />

career with the New York Yankees (he was the first player to ever “test positive for Maalox”), his love affair<br />

with Sophia Loren, and his enduring friendships with several of his idols, including Mickey Mantle and<br />

Muhammad Ali. He lends a light touch to more serious topics like religion (“the aging friends I know have<br />

turned to the Holy Trinity: Advil, bourbon, and Prozac”), grandparenting, and, of course, dentistry. As wise<br />

and poignant as they are funny, Crystal’s reflections are an unforgettable look at an extraordinary life well<br />

lived.<br />

HUSTON, ANJELICA<br />

Writing with an exuberant love of language and detail, Anjelica Huston shares her enchanted childhood in<br />

Ireland, her teen years in London, and her coming of age as a model and nascent actress in New<br />

York.John Huston was filming "The African Queen"--in the Belgian Congo--when he received a telegram<br />

from his wife announcing the birth of a healthy baby girl. She named her Anjelica, after her mother. Now,<br />

the magnificent Academy Award-winning actress shares the story of her deeply unconventional life. Living<br />

with her glamorous and artistic mother, educated by tutors and nuns, intrepid on a horse, Huston was<br />

raised on an Irish estate to which--between movies--her father brought his array of extraordinary friends,<br />

from Carson McCullers and John Steinbeck to Peter O'Toole and Marlon Brando. Seventeen, striking,<br />

precocious, but still young and vulnerable, she is devastated when her mother dies in a car crash. Months<br />

later she moves to New York, falls in love with the much older, brilliant but disturbed photographer, Bob<br />

Richardson, and becomes a model. Living in the Chelsea Hotel, working with Richard Avedon and other<br />

photographers, she navigates a volatile relationship and the dynamic cultural epicenter of New York in the<br />

Seventies.<br />

STRINGS ATTACHED<br />

LIPMAN, JOANNE<br />

Strings Attached is the story of a brilliant but ferocious music teacher who came to be known as "Mr. K"<br />

told in the alternating first person perspectives of his former student—award-winning journalist Joanne<br />

Lipman—and his daughter—Chicago Symphony Orchestra violinist Melanie Kupchynsky. A Ukrainian<br />

immigrant who survived an abusive childhood, Mr. K used music as a means of escape. The authors<br />

bring the extraordinary character of Mr. K to life—from his days as a forced Nazi laborer to his home life<br />

as a husband to an invalid wife to the terrifying challenges he hurtled from behind the music stand, in a<br />

thick Ukrainian accent. Mr. K pushed his students harder than their parents, harder than their other<br />

teachers and coaches, and through sheer force of will made them better than they had any right to be. It<br />

wasn’t until years later that his students realized how much they loved him for it. At Mr. K's memorial<br />

service, three generations of students flew in from all over the country to play a concert in his memory,<br />

having finally understood his tough lessons. Mr. K’s subject was music, but the lessons he taught were<br />

universal ones about resilience, the power of a “can do” attitude, and achieving excellence in life. Strings<br />

Attached tells Mr. K’s story—a narrative that is itself as absorbing as fiction—giving readers the<br />

opportunity to experience the lessons of the world’s toughest teacher for themselves.<br />

SURVIVAL LESSONS<br />

HOFFMAN, ALICE<br />

Survival Lessons provides a road map of how to reclaim your life from this day forward, with ways to<br />

reenvision everything—from relationships with friends and family to the way you see yourself. As Alice<br />

Hoffman says, “In many ways I wrote Survival Lessons to remind myself of the beauty of life, something<br />

that’s all too easy to overlook during the crisis of illness or loss. I forgot that our lives are made up of<br />

THE SWEETNESS OF A SIMPLE LIFE<br />

BERESFORD-KROEGER, DIANA<br />

In The Sweetness of a Simple Life, Diana Beresford-Kroeger mixes science with storytelling,<br />

wonderment, magic, myth and plenty of common sense. Orphaned at an early age, Beresford-Kroeger<br />

was raised by elderly relatives in Ireland in the Druidic tradition, taught the overlap between the arts and<br />

sciences, and the triad of body, mind and spirit. After pursuing a PhD in medical biochemistry, Beresford-<br />

Kroeger set out on a quest to preserve the world's forests. In this warm and wise collection of essays, she<br />

gives us a guide for living simply and well: which foods to eat and which to avoid; how to clean our homes<br />

and look after pets; how we can protect ourselves and our loved ones from illness; and why we need to<br />

appreciate nature. She provides an easy dose of healing, practical wisdom, blending modern medicine<br />

with aboriginal traditions. This inspiring, accessible book emphasizes back to basics, with the touchstone<br />

not an exotic religion or meditation practice, but the natural world around us.<br />

SYNCHRONICITY KEY<br />

WILCOCK, DAVID<br />

New York Times bestselling author David Wilcock unlocks the key to a universal life force that is<br />

influencing and guiding humanity toward enlightenment. With The Source Field Investigations, David<br />

Wilcock joined Graham Hancock and Lynne McTaggart as a leading writer exploring the intersection of<br />

ancient mysteries and new science. He used cutting-edge alternative science to delve into the mysteries<br />

behind the 2012 prophecies, and readers embraced his findings: The Source Field Investigations was a<br />

New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today bestseller. In his new book, The Synchronicity Key,<br />

Wilcock embarks on an astonishing investigation into what lies beyond those prophecies—finding proof<br />

that everything in our lives is not only connected, it all influences everything else. Using history, astrology,<br />

and synchronicity theory as well as concepts such as fractals, spiritual geometry, quantum physics, and<br />

other new research, Wilcock shows that there is a hidden architecture within time, guiding individuals and<br />

nations through a system of enlightenment Joseph Campbell called the Hero’s Journey. Historical events<br />

occur in shockingly precise, repeating cycles of time as a result. Once we understand and identify the<br />

hidden laws governing the fates of individuals and nations through seemingly random “synchronicity,” we<br />

are left with a remarkable blueprint of how best to lead our lives spiritually in the post-2012 world.<br />

TAKING LIBERTIES<br />

GOUTER, DAVID<br />

Universal human rights are considered to be a fundamental, inalienable aspect of Canadian legal culture,<br />

not to mention central to our international positioning. However the reality is that Canada was surprisingly<br />

slow to adopt the rights revolution that followed the Second World War, given concerns that existing<br />

norms and liberties could conflict with these new universal rights. Moreover, even when Canada did sign<br />

up, these rights were not all automatically put into practice. Nor, interestingly, did all groups embrace<br />

these rights. Human rights, as we know, did become entrenched. There have been challenges to and<br />

changes in the legal framework of citizenship in Canada. But this has followed a long process of<br />

transformation, and many groups have faced tremendous struggle to get their rights claims recognized.<br />

This collection sheds new lights on the bumpy road toward universal human rights in our diverse and<br />

complex country. Topics include sexual rights, children's rights, "race" and multiculturalism, and class. A<br />

landmark essay by J.R. Miller explores the rights of Aboriginal peoples from the 1876 Indian Act to the<br />

repeal of Section 67 in the Canadian Human Rights Act in 2011. Also considered is the central role of<br />

rights activists-often struggling in the face of widespread hostility-to secure protection for their rights. A<br />

highly insightful, original foreword by Michael Ignatieff is based on a very well-received public lecture in<br />

response to the chapters written for this volume. New research in the growing new field of human rights<br />

history explores the novelty of, the struggle for, and the limitations of, the new rights regime, and its<br />

uneven application across Canadian society.<br />

EMMOTT, STEPHEN<br />

Earth is home to millions of species. Yet just one dominates it. Us. Our cleverness, inventiveness, and<br />

activities have modified almost every part of our planet, impacting it profoundly. Indeed, our cleverness,<br />

inventiveness, and activities are now the drivers of every global problem we face. And every one of these<br />

problems is accelerating as we continue to grow towards a global population of ten billion. This is not a<br />

political issue. Or a cultural issue. It’s not about saving whales or rainforests or polar bears. This is an<br />

emergency.<br />

TEN YEARS IN THE TUB<br />

HORNBY, NICK<br />

At the end of 2003, as the first issue of The Believer was rising from the primordial ooze, Nick Hornby<br />

turned in the inaugural installment of a monthly column that immediately became a reader favorite. For<br />

the next ten years, Hornby’s incandescently funny “Stuff I’ve Been Reading” chronicled a singular reading<br />

life — one that is measured not just in “books bought” and “books read,” as each column begins, but in<br />

the way our feelings toward Celine Dion say a lot about who we are, the way Body Shop Vanilla Shower<br />

Gel can add excitement to our days, and the way John Updike might ruin our sex lives. Hornby’s column<br />

is both an impeccable, wide-ranging reading list and an indispensable reminder of why we read.<br />

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE<br />

FINKEL, DAVID<br />

No journalist has reckoned with the psychology of war as intimately as David Finkel. In The Good<br />

Soldiers, Finkel shadowed the men of the US 2-16 Infantry Battalion in Baghdad as they carried out the<br />

grueling fifteen-month "surge" that changed them all forever. Now Finkel has followed many of the same<br />

men as they've returned home and struggled to reintegrate - both into their family lives and into society at<br />

large. In the ironically titled Thank You for Your Service, Finkel writes with tremendous compassion not<br />

just about the soldiers but about their wives and children. Where do soldiers belong after their<br />

homecoming? Is it reasonable, or even possible, to expect them to rejoin their communities as if nothing<br />

has happened? And in moments of hardship, who can soldiers turn to if they feel alienated by the world<br />

they once lived in? These are the questions Finkel faces as he revisits the brave men of the 2-16.<br />

THE THIRD RAIL<br />

LEECH, JIM<br />

Over the next 20 years more than 7 million Canadian workers will retire. Baby boomers, the 45- to 65-<br />

year-olds who account for 42% of the country's workforce, will join the largest job exodus in Canadian<br />

history, moving the promised land of retirement. Unless our crumbling pension system is reformed, many<br />

of these reitrees will find this dreamland a bewildering and disappointing mirage. In the early 1980s,<br />

consumers were setting aside 20% of their disposable incomes to their retirement plans; today the<br />

savings rate is a threadbare 2.5%. Retirement savings plans meant to build Canadians' personal war<br />

chests for their final years have failed to live up to their cheery promises of early retirement "freedom" -<br />

market returns are low, and financial fees are climbing. Moreover, retirement plans are now being<br />

compromised by high pension obligations and a shrinking workforce. Canada has the capacity to diffuse<br />

this ticking pension time bomb with some hard choices, posits Leech. It's time for businesses,<br />

governments, unions, and employees to face these options and fix our pensions system, taking examples<br />

from Holland, New Brunswick, and Rhode Island.<br />

THIS IS THE STORY OF A HAPPY MARRIAGE<br />

Ann Patchett’s novels have been feats of imagination—from the tale of an opera singer held hostage<br />

inside a vice presidential mansion, to a forgotten tribe along the banks of the Amazon river—she has<br />

us into the very real world of her own life. This Is the Story of a Happy Marriage is both wide-ranging and<br />

deeply personal, overflowing with close observation and emotional wisdom. Stretching from her<br />

tumultuous childhood, from a disastrous early marriage and a later happy one, she charts the hard work<br />

and joy of writing, and the unexpected thrill of opening a bookstore. Patchett shares stories of the people,<br />

places, ideals, and art to which she has remained indelibly committed.<br />

THIS LAND WAS MADE FOR YOU AND ME (BUT MOSTLY ME)<br />

MCCALL, BRUCE<br />

When it comes to the lifestyles of American Express Black Card holders, you'd never know we're in a<br />

recession. This Land Was Made For You and Me (But Mostly Me) is a hilarious catalog of the absurdly<br />

extravagant lifestyles, impossibly glamorous escapes, and pet projects of North America's one<br />

percenters. From fiberglass Baobab tree houses in the foothills of the Rockies with machine-gun ports at<br />

every level, to a four-star open-air restaurant precariously balanced atop the leafy rainforests of the<br />

Amazon basin, longtime friends and mutual fans McCall and Letterman have created an Architectural<br />

Digest-style satire of the (obscenely) rich and famous. Featuring beautiful hand-painted illustrations in<br />

McCall's inimitable style and the brilliantly caustic wit of both authors, This Land takes you on a dizzying<br />

tour of vacation homes and resorts at once utterly ridiculous and eerily plausible.<br />

as well as its secret language and its origins. Like George Plimpton famously did in Paper Lion, Al Rae<br />

suits up himself to try something he's never done in his life (even despite being a Scottish-born<br />

Canadian). Rolling Stones is not only a dive into a subculture that turns out to have universal appeal, but<br />

also becomes a journey of self-discovery for the author.<br />

TO THE LETTER: A CELEBRATION OF THE LOST ART OF LETTER WRITING<br />

GARFIELD, SIMON<br />

Few things are as exciting—and potentially life-changing—as discovering an old letter. And while etiquette<br />

books still extol the practice, letter writing seems to be disappearing amid a flurry of e-mails, texting, and<br />

tweeting. The recent decline in letter writing marks a cultural shift so vast that in the future historians may<br />

divide time not between BC and AD but between the eras when people wrote letters and when they did<br />

not. So New York Times bestselling author Simon Garfield asks: Can anything be done to revive a<br />

practice that has dictated and tracked the progress of civilization for more than five hundred years? In To<br />

the Letter, Garfield traces the fascinating history of letter writing from the love letter and the business<br />

letter to the chain letter and the letter of recommendation. He provides a tender critique of early letterwriting<br />

manuals and analyzes celebrated correspondence from Erasmus to Princess Diana. He also<br />

considers the role that letters have played as a literary device from Shakespeare to the epistolary novel,<br />

all the rage in the eighteenth century and alive and well today with bestsellers like The Guernsey Literary<br />

and Potato Peel Pie Society. At a time when the decline of letter writing appears to be irreversible,<br />

Garfield is the perfect candidate to inspire bibliophiles to put pen to paper and create “a form of<br />

expression, emotion, and tactile delight we may clasp to our heart.”<br />

TOXIN TOXOUT<br />

LOURIE, BRUCE<br />

Following the runaway success of their first book, 2 of Canada's leading environmental activists give<br />

practical and often surprising advice for removing toxic chemicals from our bodies and homes. There are<br />

over 80,000 synthetic chemicals in commerce today, including hormone-disrupting phthalates and<br />

parabens, cancer-causing pesticides, heavy metals and air pollutants. Rick Smith and Bruce Lourie use<br />

their outrageous experiments (they and their brave volunteers are the guinea pigs) to prove how easily<br />

our bodies absorb these chemicals from the foods we eat, the air we breathe, and the products we smear<br />

on our skin--day after day. Then they give us the good news about what is in our control and the steps we<br />

can take for reducing our toxic burden. They investigate the truth behind organic foods, which detox<br />

methods actually work, if indoor air quality is improving, and how we dispose of waste (where do those<br />

chemicals go?). The result is nothing short of a prescription for a healthier life.<br />

TUMBLING TIDE<br />

GOODCHILD, PETER<br />

Our world runs on fossil fuels. We burning 30 billion barrels of oil every year. The world’s supply of<br />

usable, recoverable oil is diminishing. It is estimated that oil production will drop to half of the peak<br />

amount around 2030.Fossil fuels, metals, and electricity are highly interconnected: if one of the three<br />

fails, then so do the other two. Fossil fuels are in decline, but recoverable reserves of metals are also<br />

becoming less plentiful. Electricity will be in decline worldwide because it is produced mainly with fossil<br />

fuels."Alternative energy" in general will never be very useful, for several reasons, but mainly because of<br />

a problem of net energy: the amount of energy output is not sufficiently greater than the amount of energy<br />

input.As the price of oil rises, so does the price of everything else. At first, money will be an immensely<br />

important issue; it will take a handful of bills to buy anything. Largely because of the high prices, also,<br />

unemployment will rise. A few decades later, the money problem will be nothing, because money will<br />

cease to be used. Those who expect to survive and prosper will be those who have mastered the art of<br />

subsistence farming.<br />

their family backgrounds, childhoods, and their infatuation with American music. As Tune In chronicles in<br />

charisma, looks, sex appeal, personalities, honesty, humor, attitude - and the Lennon-McCartney<br />

partnership. Their enduring fame and legendary exploits have led to countless biographies of the Beatles,<br />

but now we have the ultimate portrait. Tune In is the first book in a genre-defining trilogy, telling the story<br />

of the Beatles from before their beginning up to the final night of 1962, with success within their grasp and<br />

on the cusp of a whole new kind of celebrity.<br />

One of the greatest untapped resources of today isn’t offshore oil or natural gas—it’s data. Gigabytes,<br />

exabytes (that’s one quintillion bytes) of data are sitting on servers across the world. So how can we start<br />

to access this explosion of information, this “big data,” and what can it tell us? Erez Aiden and Jean-<br />

Baptiste Michel are two young scientists at Harvard who started to ask those questions. They teamed up<br />

with Google to create the Ngram Viewer, a Web-based tool that can chart words throughout the massive<br />

Google Books archive, sifting through billions of words to find fascinating cultural trends. On the front<br />

lines of Big Data, Aiden and Michel realized that this big dataset—the Google Books archive that contains<br />

remarkable information on the human experience—had huge implications for looking at our shared<br />

human history.<br />

UNCLE JOHN'S BATHROOM READER: WEIRD CANADA<br />

UNCLE JOHN'S<br />

Did you know that Canada was almost called Hochelaga? That’s just one of thousands of wacky facts<br />

awaiting readers in Uncle John’s quirky celebration of Earth’s second largest country. You’ll find page<br />

after page of bizarre history (like why the beaver was once classified as a fish), plus head-scratching<br />

news items (like the crook who returned to the Tim Hortons he’d just robbed to tip the workers), odd<br />

places to go (like Mr. Spock’s birthplace in a town called Vulcan), and crazy eats (like the restaurant that<br />

makes you eat in complete darkness).<br />

UNDER FIRE: THE UNTOLD STORY OF THE ATTACK IN BENGHAZI<br />

BURTON, FRED<br />

The first explosive inside account of the attack at the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, that took the<br />

lives of four Americans, including the U.S. Ambassador. On the night of September 11, 2012, the<br />

American diplomatic mission at Benghazi, Libya, came under ferocious attack by a heavily armed group<br />

of Islamic militants. Based on the exclusive cooperation of eyewitnesses and confidential sources within<br />

the intelligence, diplomatic, and military communities, authors Fred Burton and Samuel Katz bring to life<br />

the terrifying twelve-hour ordeal. More than just the minute-by-minute narrative of a desperate last stand<br />

in the midst of an anarchic rebellion, "Under Fire" is the story of the gallantry of individuals facing<br />

impossible odds and a compelling testament to the bravery and selflessness of the men who put their<br />

country first while serving in one of the most dangerous regions in the world.<br />

VANISHED<br />

HYLTON, WIL S.<br />

From a mesmerizing storyteller, the gripping search for a missing World War II crew, their bomber plane,<br />

and their legacy. On September 1, 1944, a massive American bomber carrying eleven men vanished over<br />

the tiny Pacific archipelago of Palau, leaving behind a trail of mysteries. For more than sixty years, the<br />

U.S. government, the children of the missing airmen, and a maverick team of scientists and scuba divers<br />

searched the archipelago for clues with cutting-edge technology and unyielding determination. They<br />

crawled through thickets of mangrove and slogged into groves of poison trees, flew over the islands in<br />

private planes shooting infrared photography, trolled the water with magnetometers and side-scan sonar,<br />

and launched grid searches on the seafloor, but the trail seemed to lead nowhere. Now, in a spellbinding<br />

narrative, Wil S. Hylton weaves together the true tale of the missing men, their final days, the loved ones<br />

left wondering, and the broad sweep of world events that converged upon their last mission. With more<br />

than 56,000 troops still missing, the Pacific theater of World War II accounts for two-thirds of all American<br />

MIAs over the past century. These soldiers have never been seen again. But our government has never<br />

stopped trying to find them, and for two generations, their families have passed down the wounds of war,<br />

unable to find closure in a story without an ending. This is the story of those missing soldiers, the families<br />

they left behind, and the legion of scientists, explorers, archeologists, and deep-sea divers who offered<br />

everything to finally give their story an ending.<br />

VANITY FAIR 100 YEARS<br />

CARTER, GRAYDON<br />

Vanity Fair 100 Years showcases a century of personality and power, art and commerce, crisis and<br />

culture—both highbrow and low. From its inception in 1913, through the Jazz Age and the Depression, to<br />

its reincarnation in the boom-boom Reagan years, to the image-saturated Information Age, Vanity Fair<br />

has presented the modern era as it has unfolded, using wit, imagination, peerless literary narrative, and<br />

bold, groundbreaking imagery from the greatest photographers, artists, and illustrators of the day. This<br />

sumptuous book takes a decade-by-decade look at the world as seen by the magazine, stopping to<br />

describe the incomparable editor Frank Crowninshield and the birth of the Jazz Age Vanity Fair, the<br />

magazine’s controversial rebirth in 1983, and the history of the glamorous Vanity Fair Oscar Party.<br />

WALKING WITH GOD THROUGH PAIN AND SUFFERING<br />

KELLER, TIMOTHY<br />

Walking with God through Pain and Suffering is the definitive Christian book on why bad things happen<br />

and how we should respond to them. The question of why there is pain and suffering in the world has<br />

confounded every generation; yet there has not been a major book from a Christian perspective exploring<br />

why they exist for many years. The two classics in this area are When Bad Things Happen to Good<br />

People by Rabbi Harold S. Kushner, which was published more than thirty years ago, and C. S. Lewis’s<br />

The Problem of Pain, published more than seventy years ago. The great secular book on the subject,<br />

Elisabeth Ku¨bler-Ross’s On Death and Dying, was first published in 1969. It’s time for a new<br />

understanding and perspective, and who better to tackle this complex subject than Timothy Keller? As the<br />

pastor of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in Manhattan, Timothy Keller is known for the unique insights<br />

he shares, and his series of books has guided countless readers in their spiritual journeys. Walking with<br />

God through Pain and Suffering will bring a much-needed, fresh viewpoint on this important issue.<br />

THE WAR ON SCIENCE<br />

TURNER, CHRIS<br />

In this arresting and passionately argued indictment, award-winning journalist Chris Turner argues that<br />

Stephen Harper's attack on basic science, science communication, environmental regulations, and the<br />

environmental NGO community is the most vicious assault ever waged by a Canadian government on<br />

the fundamental principles of the Enlightenment. From the closure of Arctic research stations as oil<br />

drilling begins in the High Arctic to slashed research budgets in agriculture, dramatic changes to the<br />

nation’s fisheries policy, and the muzzling of government scientists, Harper's government has<br />

effectively dismantled Canada's long-standing scientific tradition.<br />

THE WAR THAT ENDED PEACE<br />

MACMILLAN, MARGARET<br />

The First World War followed a period of sustained peace in Europe during which people talked with<br />

confidence of prosperity, progress, and hope. But in 1914, Europe walked into a catastrophic conflict that<br />

killed millions, bled its economies dry, shook empires and societies to pieces, and fatally undermined<br />

Europe’s dominance of the world. It was a war that could have been avoided up to the last moment—so<br />

why did it happen? Beginning in the early nineteenth century and ending with the assassination of<br />

Archduke Franz Ferdinand, award-winning historian Margaret Macmillan uncovers the huge political and<br />

technological changes, national decisions, and just as important, the small moments of human muddle<br />

and weakness that led Europe from peace to disaster. This masterful exploration of how Europe chose its<br />

path towards war will change and enrich how we see this defining moment in history.<br />

WELCOME TO MAPLE LEAF GARDENS<br />

ABEL, GRAIG<br />

From its unfathomable construction in the grip of the Great Depression to its closing in 1999 and its<br />

current status as Ryerson University’s Mattamy Athletic Centre, this lush, nostalgic history captures the<br />

former Maple Leaf Gardens hockey arena in all its glory. With a compelling narrative from the Toronto<br />

Maple Leafs’ official photographer Graig Abel, and Toronto Sun hockey reporter Lance Hornby, more<br />

than 240 color photos form a documentary that is the definitive chronicle of the team’s former venue.<br />

Beginning with team manager Conn Smythe’s dream of building a landmark arena of the likes of the New<br />

York Rangers’ in midtown Manhattan and opening night on November 12, 1931, against the Chicago<br />

Blackhawks through more than 2,500 games and a myriad of other sports matches, concerts, and<br />

events—performances by Bob Hope, Frank Sinatra, Elvis, and the Beatles; election rallies held by Prime<br />

Ministers William Lyon Mackenzie King and Pierre Trudeau; and the historic bout between Muhammad Ali<br />

and George Chuvalo—this work details the storied saga of Toronto’s once premier showcase.<br />

WELCOME TO THE BROADCAST<br />

NEWMAN, DON<br />

In his first book, Welcome to the Broadcast, titled after his famous greeting to his viewers, Don Newman<br />

writes about his many decades of reporting on Canadian and international politics. He covered some of<br />

the most important political events of our time, including Canadian federal elections, the free-trade<br />

discussions, the failed Meech Lake Accord(his coverage won the parliamentary bureau a Gemini Award),<br />

the U.S. presidential elections, State of the Union addresses and the state funeral of Ronald Reagan.<br />

Newman started out as a print and broadcast journalist in Winnipeg and Regina, then moved to Toronto to<br />

join The Globe and Mail before joining the Globe bureau in 1969. In 1971, he joined the CTV<br />

parliamentary bureau and in 1972 became CTV’s first Washington correspondent. Joining the CBC in<br />

Washington in 1976, he went to Edmontonto cover the energy and constitutional conflicts, and he<br />

returned to Ottawa in 1981 to This Week in Parliament. In 1989, he helped launch CBC Newsworld,<br />

hosting the daily show Capital Report.<br />

WEST'S WORLD: THE EXTRAORDINARY LIFE OF DAMA REBECCA WEST<br />

GIBB, LORNA<br />

Cicely Fairfield was born in 1892, but as a young woman - and a budding actress - she changed her<br />

name to that of the feminist heroine in Ibsen's play, Rosmersholm . A passionate suffragist, socialist<br />

(though in later life she was also a passionate supporter of Mrs Thatcher), fiercely intelligent, Rebecca<br />

West began her career as a writer with articles in The Freewoman and The Clarion, and published her<br />

first book, a biography of Henry James, when she was only twenty-four and her first novel two years later.<br />

She had a notorious affair with H.G. Wells, and their illegitimate son, Anthony, was born at the beginning<br />

of the First World War. The author of several novels, she is perhaps best remembered for her classic<br />

account of pre-war Yugoslavia, Black Lamb, Grey Falcon (published by Macmillan in 1941 and as<br />

relevant today as it was sixty years ago) and for her coverage of the Nuremberg Trials. When she died in<br />

1983, aged 90, William Shawn then editor in chief of The New Yorker said of her: ‘Rebecca West was one<br />

of the giants and will have a lasting place in English literature. No one in this century wrote more dazzling<br />

prose, or had more wit, or looked at the intricacies of human character and the ways of the world more<br />

intelligently.’ Formidably talented and indeed formidable, West was a towering figure in the British literary<br />

landscape Lorna Gibb's vivid and insightful biography affords a dazzling insight into her life and work.<br />

WHAT EVERY PARENT SHOULD KNOW ABOUT SCHOOL<br />

REIST, MICHAEL<br />

School is our children's second home. They will spend more time there than anywhere else in their<br />

formative years. We all need to talk honestly about the nature of this environment, how it works, and how<br />

it doesn't work. Our kids are depending on us to create a school system where they can learn as well as<br />

feel happy. The more we know about how school works, the better we will be able to navigate our way<br />

through "the system" and help our children do the same. What Every Parent Should Know About School<br />

is an honest, positive, thought-provoking look at what schools are today and what they could be in the<br />

future.<br />

WHAT GOD SAID<br />

WALSCH, NEALE DONALD<br />

Inspired by his nine-book Conversations with God series, many people have asked Neale Donald Walsch<br />

to find a way to deliver the most essential pieces of God’s message to us in a more succinct way. The<br />

result is a concise text detailing and expanding just what we need to know about life and how to live it.<br />

Bringing their many conversations over the years into sharper focus than ever before, Walsch in What<br />

God Said encourages readers to cast aside religious and cultural trappings. To experience life as<br />

fallible—and human—beings, open minded, open-hearted, and all-embracing, and to build on, broaden,<br />

and enrich our Ancient Story. But to move forward on this ever-expanding and encompassing spiritual<br />

voyage means not only understanding what Walsch considers the most important insights of his<br />

Conversations with God, but also applying them in the most practical of ways. And so Walsch has<br />

included solid suggestions on how to apply each of the 25 Core Messages in daily life, The author says<br />

that should humanity begin carrying these messages forward, starting today, they can literally change the<br />

world.<br />

WHEELMEN: LANCE ARMSTRONG, THE TOUR DE FRANCE, AND THE GREATEST SPORTS<br />

CONSPIRACY EVER<br />

ALBERGOTTI, REED<br />

Lance Armstrong won a record-smashing seven Tours de France after staring down cancer, and in the<br />

process became an international symbol of resilience and courage. In a sport constantly dogged by<br />

blood-doping scandals, he seemed above the fray. Then, in January 2013, the legend imploded. He<br />

admitted doping during the Tours and, in an interview with Oprah, described his “mythic, perfect story” as<br />

“one big lie.” But his admission raised more questions than it answered—because he didn’t say who had<br />

helped him dope or how he skillfully avoided getting caught. Wall Street Journal reporters Reed Albergotti<br />

and Vanessa O’Connell broke the news at every turn. In Wheelmen they reveal the broader story of how<br />

Armstrong and his supporters used money, power, and cutting-edge science to conquer the world’s most<br />

diffcult race. Wheelmen introduces U.S. Postal Service Team owner Thom Weisel, who in a brazen power<br />

play ousted USA Cycling’s top leadership and gained control of the sport in the United States, ensuring<br />

Armstrong’s dominance. Meanwhile, sponsors fought over contracts with Armstrong as the entire sport of<br />

cycling began to benefit from the “Lance effect.” What had been a quirky, working-class hobby became<br />

the pastime of the Masters of the Universe set. Wheelmen offers a riveting look at what happens when<br />

enigmatic genius breaks loose from the strictures of morality. It reveals the competitiveness and ingenuity<br />

that sparked blood-doping as an accepted practice, and shows how the Americans methodically<br />

constructed an international operation of spies and revolutionary technology to reach the top. At last<br />

exposing the truth about Armstrong and American cycling, Wheelmen paints a living portrait of what is,<br />

without question, the greatest conspiracy in the history of sports.<br />

WILSON<br />

BERG, A. SCOTT<br />

One hundred years after his inauguration, Woodrow Wilson still stands as one of the most influential<br />

figures of the twentieth century, and one of the most enigmatic. And now, after more than a decade of<br />

research and writing, Pulitzer Prize-winning author A. Scott Berg has completed Wilson--the most<br />

personal and penetrating biography ever written about the 28th President. In addition to the hundreds of<br />

thousands of documents in the Wilson Archives, Berg was the first biographer to gain access to two<br />

recently-discovered caches of papers belonging to those close to Wilson. From the scholar-President who<br />

ushered the country through its first great world war to the man of intense passion and turbulence , from<br />

the idealist determined to make the world “safe for democracy” to the stroke-crippled leader whose<br />

incapacity and the subterfuges around it were among the century’s greatest secrets, the result is an<br />

intimate portrait written with a particularly contemporary point of view – a book at once magisterial and<br />

deeply emotional about the whole of Wilson’s life, accomplishments, and failings.<br />

Winning from Within by leadership and negotiation expert Erica Ariel Fox presents a contemporary<br />

approach for getting more of what you want, improving relationships, and enjoying life’s deeper rewards.<br />

With principles developed while teaching negotiation at Harvard Law School and coaching executives<br />

yourself out. Fox uses insights from Western psychology and Eastern philosophy to resolve the gap<br />

between what people know they should say and what they actually do. She explains how to master your<br />

developing your highest leadership potential.<br />

THE WITNESS WORE RED<br />

MUSSER, REBECCA<br />

Rebecca Musser grew up in fear, concealing her family's polygamous lifestyle from the "dangerous"<br />

outside world. Covered head-to-toe in strict, modest clothing, she received a rigorous education at Alta<br />

Academy, the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints' school headed by Warren<br />

Jeffs. Always seeking to be an obedient Priesthood girl, in her teens she became the nineteenth wife of<br />

her people's prophet: 85-year-old Rulon Jeffs, Warren's father. Finally sickened by the abuse she suffered<br />

and saw around her, she pulled off a daring escape and sought to build a new life and family. The church,<br />

however, had a way of pulling her back in-and by 2007, Rebecca had no choice but to take the witness<br />

stand against the new prophet of the FLDS in order to protect her little sisters and other young girls from<br />

being forced to marry at shockingly young ages. The following year, Rebecca and the rest of the world<br />

watched as a team of Texas Rangers raided the Yearning for Zion Ranch, a stronghold of the FLDS.<br />

Rebecca's subsequent testimony would reveal the horrific secrets taking place behind closed doors of the<br />

temple, sending their leaders to prison for years, and Warren Jeffs for life.<br />

WOMAN REBEL: THE MARGARET SANGER STORY<br />

BAGGE, PETER<br />

Peter Bagge is famous for his slacker character Buddy Bradley and, more recently, for his contributions to<br />

the libertarian magazine Reason. Margaret Sanger was a noted nineteenth-century birth-control activist,<br />

as well as an educator, a nurse, a mother, and a founder of Planned Parenthood. Woman Rebel by Peter<br />

Bagge would seem to be an improbable pairing in content and in form, but Sanger’s life takes on a whole<br />

new vivacity as Bagge creates an adoring, fast-paced biography of this trailblazing woman whose legacy<br />

is still incredibly relevant and inspiring. Drawn in full color with an extensive bibliography and an<br />

introduction by the journalist Tom Spurgeon of the Comics Reporter, Woman Rebel showcases Bagge’s<br />

signature cartoony, rubbery style and potent sense of humor, as well as his respect for the precedentsetting<br />

political and social maverick. In a style jam-packed with fact and fun, Bagge charts Sanger’s life,<br />

from her impoverished childhood in rural New York to her brief formal education, from her work in the<br />

Lower East Side tenements to her involvement with the burgeoning birth-control movement. Bagge has<br />

created the most accessible Sanger biography ever; Woman Rebel is perfect for introducing this<br />

vanguard of the women’s rights movement to a whole new generation of readers.<br />

WONDER WOMEN: SEX, POWER AND THE QUEST FOR PERFECTION<br />

SPAR, DEBORA<br />

Fifty years after the Equal Pay Act, why are women still living in a man's world? Debora L. Spar spent<br />

most of her life avoiding feminism. Raised after the tumult of the '60s, she presumed that the gender war<br />

was over; she swore to young women that yes, they could have it all. "We thought we could glide into the<br />

new era with babies, board seats, and husbands in tow," she writes. "We were wrong." Spar should know.<br />

One of the first women professors at Harvard Business School, she went on to have three children and<br />

became the chair of her department. Now she's the president of Barnard College, arguably the most<br />

important all-women school in the country, an institution firmly committed to feminism. "Wonder Women<br />

"is Spar's story and the culture's. Armed with reams of new research, she examines how women's lives<br />

have--and have not--changed over the past forty years. The challenges confronting women are more<br />

complex than ever. They stem from breast pumps and Manolo pumps; from men whose eyes linger on a<br />

woman's rear and men who rush that same rear out the door. They're problems that come inherently and<br />

inevitably from being female. Yet they're falling on generations of women who grew up believing that none<br />

of these things are supposed to matter now. "Wonder Women "gives us an important voice in an<br />

increasingly heated debate. In this wise, often funny, always human, and smartly conceived book, Spar<br />

asks: How far have women really come? And what will it take to get true equality for good?<br />

THE XX FACTOR<br />

WOLF, ALISON<br />

For most of history, being female defined the limits of a woman’s achievements. But now women can be<br />

successful careerists equal to men. These changes are revolutionary but not universal—the “sisterhood”<br />

of working women is deeply divided. Young, educated, full-time professional women, who have put<br />

children on hold, are making enormous strides in the workplace. But for a second group of women, this is<br />

unattainable; instead, they work part-time, earn less, are concentrated in heavily feminized occupations<br />

such as cleaning, and gain income and self-worth from having children at a young age. The new female<br />

elite, the top 10 percent, lead lives completely different from all previous women in history or from other<br />

women today. As these two groups move ever further apart, shared gender no longer automatically<br />

means shared interests. Patterns are changing far faster in the developing world than they ever did in the<br />

West, yet we seem curiously blind to this remaking of our social landscape. A groundbreaking look at<br />

modern women, The XX Factor lifts the curtain on the social, cultural, and economic schisms behind the<br />

phenomenal rise of women in the workplace.<br />

JOYCE, GRAHAM<br />

It is the summer of 1976, the hottest since records began and a young man leaves behind his student<br />

days and learns how to grow up. A first job in a holiday camp beckons. But with political and racial<br />

tensions simmering under the cloudless summer skies there is not much fun to be had. And soon there is<br />

a terrible price to be paid for his new found freedom and independence.<br />

BERRY, JULIE<br />

Four years ago, Judith and her best friend disappeared from their small town of Roswell Station. Two<br />

years ago, only Judith returned, permanently mutilated, reviled and ignored by those who were once her<br />

friends and family. Unable to speak, Judith lives like a ghost in her own home, silently pouring out her<br />

thoughts to the boy who’s owned her heart as long as she can remember—even if he doesn’t know it—<br />

her childhood friend, Lucas. But when Roswell Station is attacked, long-buried secrets come to light, and<br />

Judith is forced to choose: continue to live in silence, or recover her voice, even if it means changing her<br />

world, and the lives around her, forever. This startlingly original novel will shock and disturb you; it will fill<br />

you with Judith’s passion and longing; and its mysteries will keep you feverishly turning the pages until<br />

the very last.<br />

After a daring escape to Earth from Arras, sixteen-year-old Adelice Lewys thought she would finally be in<br />

control of her own destiny. She would be free to be true to herself and to her heart—to love Jost, the boy<br />

the Guild said she could not have. But Earth is not abandoned, as she’d always been taught it was. It’s<br />

inhabited with survivors waging a war against Arras. The world that was supposed to offer a new<br />

beginning is still tangled up in the past. Now Adelice is being called upon to harness her phenomenal<br />

power and break Earth from the grip of the Guild. But even as she uncovers the truth about her parents<br />

and her former life, she discovers that nothing on Earth is as it seems either. Everyone has secrets,<br />

especially those she loves most. What’s more, those secrets are driving Adelice and Jost away from each<br />

other, and Adelice into his brother Erik’s waiting arms.<br />

Old Gods never die…Or so Athena thought. But then the feathers started sprouting beneath her skin,<br />

invading her lungs like a strange cancer, and Hermes showed up with a fever eating away his flesh.<br />

Desperately seeking the cause of their slow, miserable deaths, Athena and Hermes travel the world. Their<br />

search leads them to Cassandra—an ordinary girl who was once an extraordinary prophetess, protected<br />

and loved by a god. But she could be the key in a war that is only just beginning. Because Hera, the<br />

queen of the gods, has aligned herself with other of the ancient Olympians, who are killing off rivals in an<br />

attempt to prolong their own lives. But these anti-gods have become corrupted in their desperation to<br />

survive, horrific caricatures of their former glory. Athena will need every advantage she can get, because<br />

immortals don’t just flicker out. The Goddess War is about to begin.<br />

APPARITION<br />

GALLANT, GAIL<br />

The last time seventeen-year-old Amelia Mackenzie saw her best friend Matthew alive, he broke her<br />

heart. When he is found the next day in an abandoned barn at the edge of town, an apparent suicide,<br />

Amelia's whole world comes crashing down. And then she sees him again. Because Amelia has a secret<br />

that even Matthew didn't know: sometimes, she sees ghosts. When a local history columnist named<br />

Morris Dyson contacts Amelia after the funeral and tells her that he thinks the barn Matthew died in is<br />

haunted, and that Matthew wasn't its first victim, an unlikely partnership is born. With Amelia's gift for<br />

seeing ghosts, Morris's radical theories on the supernatural, and a bit of help from Morris's sexy but<br />

skeptical son, Kip, a mystery unfolds. One by one, the barn's other ghostly residents are revealed: all<br />

innocent, love-struck young men who've died horrific deaths, seemingly by their own hands. Life and<br />

death couldn't get more complicated as Amelia is torn between her devotion to the ghostly Matthew and<br />

her growing attraction to Kip, who may not believe in ghosts but can't help believing in Amelia. When<br />

she's confronted with a rivalry between the living and the dead, which side of the great divide will Amelia<br />

choose?<br />

ROUX, MADELEINE<br />

For sixteen-year-old Dan Crawford, New Hampshire College Prep is more than a summer program—it's a<br />

criminally insane. As Dan and his new friends, Abby and Jordan, explore the hidden recesses of their<br />

creepy summer home, they soon discover it's no coincidence that the three of them ended up here.<br />

Because the asylum holds the key to a terrifying past. And there are some secrets that refuse to stay<br />

buried.<br />

MCMANN, LISA<br />

Jules should be happy. She saved a lot of people’s lives and she’s finally with Sawyer, pretty much the<br />

guy of her dreams. But the nightmare’s not over, because she somehow managed to pass the psycho<br />

vision stuff to Sawyer. Excellent. Feeling responsible for what he’s going through and knowing that<br />

people’s lives are at stake, Jules is determined to help him figure it all out. But Sawyer’s vision is so awful<br />

he can barely describe it, much less make sense of it. All he can tell her is there’s a gun, and eleven earsplitting<br />

shots. Bang. Jules and Sawyer have to work out the details fast, because the visions are getting<br />

worse and that means only one thing: time is running out. But every clue they see takes them down the<br />

wrong path. If they can’t prevent the vision from happening, lives will be lost. And they may be among the<br />

casualties…<br />

loves to give up everything he has. With heart-pounding action and suspense, Marie Lu’s bestselling<br />

she learns that there may be more to a school trip to London than is apparent at first. A conspiracy is<br />

When Zhara plays, she plays to win. She thought she had escaped the horrors of Doctor Lusardi's cloning<br />

compound. But the nightmare is just beginning. Elysia has taken everything from Zhara-a softer, prettier<br />

version of herself and an inescapable reminder of all she's failed at in her life. Now the man Zhara loves<br />

has replaced her with Elysia. Zhara will get her clone out of the way, no matter the cost. Elysia has finally<br />

learned the truth: she has a soul. Her First is alive. She knows it hurts Zhara to see her with Alexander,<br />

but she can't give him up. The genetically-perfected Aquine has chosen as her as his life mate, and their<br />

days together are limited. Elysia can't remain in the Rave Caves off the shores of Denesme forever.<br />

Revolution is brewing on the island paradise. Hundreds of soulless clones remain imprisoned like Elysia<br />

THE ENCHANTER HEIR<br />

CHIMA, CINDA WILLIAMS<br />

They called it the Thorn Hill Massacre-the brutal attack on a once-thriving Weir community. Though Jonah<br />

Kinlock lived through it, he did not emerge unscathed: like the other survivors Jonah possesses unique<br />

magical gifts that set him apart from members of the mainline guilds. At seventeen, Jonah has become<br />

the deadliest assassin in Nightshade, a network that hunts the undead. Emma Claire Greenwood grew up<br />

worlds away, raised by a grandfather who taught her music rather than magic. An unschooled wild child,<br />

she runs the streets until the night she finds her grandfather dying, gripping a note warning Emma that<br />

she might be in danger. The clue he leaves behind leads Emma into Jonah's life-and a shared legacy of<br />

secrets and lingering questions. Was Thorn Hill really a peaceful commune? Or was it, as the Wizard<br />

Guild claims, a hotbed of underguild terrorists? The Wizards' suspicions grow when members of the<br />

mainline guilds start turning up dead. They blame Nightshade, bringing tensions between the groups to a<br />

head. Racing against time, Jonah and Emma work to uncover the truth about Thorn Hill, amid increasing<br />

concern that whoever planned the Thorn Hill Massacre might strike again.<br />

FANGIRL<br />

ROWELL, RAINBOW<br />

In Rainbow Rowell's Fangirl, Cath is a Simon Snow fan. Okay, the whole world is a Simon Snow fan, but<br />

for Cath, being a fan is her life—and she’s really good at it. She and her twin sister, Wren, ensconced<br />

themselves in the Simon Snow series when they were just kids; it’s what got them through their mother<br />

leaving. Reading. Rereading. Hanging out in Simon Snow forums, writing Simon Snow fan fiction,<br />

dressing up like the characters for every movie premiere. Cath’s sister has mostly grown away from<br />

fandom, but Cath can’t let go. She doesn’t want to. Now that they’re going to college, Wren has told Cath<br />

she doesn’t want to be roommates. Cath is on her own, completely outside of her comfort zone. She’s got<br />

a surly roommate with a charming, always-around boyfriend, a fiction-writing professor who thinks fan<br />

fiction is the end of the civilized world, a handsome classmate who only wants to talk about words . . . And<br />

she can’t stop worrying about her dad, who’s loving and fragile and has never really been alone. For<br />

Cath, the question is: Can she do this? Can she make it without Wren holding her hand? Is she ready to<br />

start living her own life? Writing her own stories? Open her heart to someone? Or will she just go on living<br />

inside somebody else’s fiction?<br />

FIERY HEART<br />

MEAD, RICHELLE<br />

In The Indigo Spell, Sydney was torn between the Alchemist way of life and what her heart and gut were<br />

telling her to do. And in one breathtaking moment that Richelle Mead fans will never forget, she made a<br />

decision that shocked even her. . . . But the struggle isn't over for Sydney. As she navigates the aftermath<br />

of her life-changing decision, she still finds herself pulled in too many directions at once. Her sister Zoe<br />

has arrived, and while Sydney longs to grow closer to her, there's still so much she must keep secret.<br />

Working with Marcus has changed the way she views the Alchemists, and Sydney must tread a careful<br />

path as she harnesses her profound magical ability to undermine the way of life she was raised to defend.<br />

Consumed by passion and vengeance, Sydney struggles to keep her secret life under wraps as the threat<br />

of exposure—and re-education—looms larger than ever.<br />

MABERRY, JONATHAN<br />

Benny Imura and his friends have found the jet and Sanctuary—but neither is what they expected.<br />

Instead of a refuge, Sanctuary is a hospice, and the soldiers who flew the plane seem to be little more<br />

than bureaucrats who have given up hope for humanity’s future. With Chong hovering between life and<br />

death, clinging to his humanity by a thread, Benny makes a startling discovery: A scientist may have<br />

discovered a cure for the zombie plague. Desperate to save Chong, Benny and his friends mount a<br />

search and rescue mission. But they’re not the only ones on the hunt. The reapers are after the cure too,<br />

and they want to use it turn all the zombies into superfast shock troops—and wipe humanity off the face<br />

of the earth.<br />

FIRE WITH FIRE<br />

HAN, JENNY<br />

Lillia, Kat, and Mary had the perfect plan. Work together in secret to take down the people who wronged<br />

them. But things didn’t exactly go the way they’d hoped at the Homecoming Dance. Not even close. For<br />

now, it looks like they got away with it. All they have to do is move on and pick up the pieces, forget there<br />

ever was a pact. But it’s not easy, not when Reeve is still a total jerk and Rennie’s meaner than she ever<br />

was before. And then there’s sweet little Mary…she knows there’s something seriously wrong with her. If<br />

she can’t control her anger, she’s sure that someone will get hurt even worse than Reeve was. Mary<br />

understands now that it’s not just that Reeve bullied her—it’s that he made her love him. Eye for an eye,<br />

tooth for a tooth, burn for a burn. A broken heart for a broken heart. The girls are up to the task. They’ll<br />

make Reeve fall in love with Lillia and then they will crush him. It’s the only way he’ll learn. It seems once<br />

a fire is lit, the only thing you can do is let it burn...<br />

A FOOL'S ERRAND<br />

FERGUS, MAUREEN<br />

In the final moments of The Gypsy King, a truth was revealed to Persephone and Azriel-one that could<br />

change everything forever. For her. For him. For them. For the entire kingdom. But trapped in a<br />

windowless castle chamber with soldiers battering at the door, it seems impossible to believe that they'll<br />

even survive. Indeed, they are a heartbeat from death when Azriel boldly bargains with the Regent<br />

Mordecai: release them and they will seek out the mythical healing Pool of Genezing. Mordecai agrees<br />

but warns that if they do not return with proof that the pool exists, he'll make those dearest to them sufferand<br />

he'll start with King Finnius. Persephone has never needed Azriel's teasing warmth as much as she<br />

needs it now, but she is finding out there is a price to pay for having broken past promises. Even so, she<br />

accompanies him, Rachel, the rescued orphan Mateo and her faithful animal friends back to the Gypsy<br />

camp from where they'll start their quest in earnest. There, Azriel stuns her and his tribesmen with a<br />

proposition that would tie together the quest for the Pool of Genezing and the prophesy of the Gypsy<br />

King. All Persephone has to do is say "yes."<br />

HADDIX, MARGARET PETERSON<br />

Becca’s claim to fame is one she’s been hiding from for the past three years: Her father is a notorious<br />

embezzler, and when he was caught, his excuse was, “How else is a guy like me supposed to put his kid<br />

through college?” Three years after the trial and imprisonment that destroyed Becca’s life, she and her<br />

mother have started over again and are living in a town where no one knows their secret. But as<br />

college—and its cost—looms large, Becca begins to wonder how they’ll afford it. And how she can apply<br />

for financial aid without divulging her secret? A local scholarship opportunity seems like a dream come<br />

true, but as the application process commences, Becca uncovers a chain of secrets that could destroy<br />

everything she’s worked so hard to build. Or lead her toward the future she’s always dreamed of …<br />

HEREAFTER<br />

BRIAN, KATE<br />

Rory Miller thought her life was over when a serial killer set his sights on her and forced her into witness<br />

protection. But a fresh start on Juniper Landing Island was exactly what she and her family needed. For<br />

the first time in years she and her sister hang out at the beach, gossip about boys, and party together.<br />

She's also made friends with a local clique-including a magnetic and mysterious boy named Tristan. But<br />

Rory's world is about to change again. Picturesque Juniper Landing isn't what it seems. The truth about<br />

the swirling fog that rolls in each morning, the bridge that leads to nowhere, and those beautiful locals<br />

who seem to watch Rory's every move is more terrifying than being hunted by Steven Nell. And all Rory<br />

ever wanted was the truth. Even if it means learning that she can never go home again. From the bestselling<br />

author of the Private and Privilege series comes the second novel in a heart-stopping trilogy about<br />

a girl who must pick up the pieces after the only life she's ever known ends.<br />

KESSLER, DAVID A.<br />

Most people believe that it's natural to gain a lot of weight as we get older. But this is not true. Kessler<br />

knows it's not true because until about 30 years ago, we did not have a weight problem in North America.<br />

In fact, throughout history, the human body weight stayed pretty much the same. People ate the amount<br />

of food they needed and no more. Then, in the 1980s, something changed. North Americans started<br />

gaining a lot of weight. Hijacked helps us understand what it is that we're eating and helps us train our<br />

brains to know when to stop eating and to stop craving food.<br />

Salvation is surrounded, monsters at the gates, and this time, they're not going away. When Deuce, Fade,<br />

Stalker and Tegan set out, the odds are against them. But the odds have been stacked against Deuce<br />

from the moment she was born. She might not be a Huntress anymore, but she doesn't run. With her<br />

knives in hand and her companions at her side, she will not falter, whether fighting for her life or Fade's<br />

love. Ahead, the battle of a lifetime awaits. Freaks are everywhere, attacking settlements, setting up<br />

scouts, perimeters, and patrols. There hasn't been a war like this in centuries, and humans have forgotten<br />

how to stand and fight. Unless Deuce can lead them. This time, however, more than the fate of a single<br />

enclave or outpost hangs in the balance. This time, Deuce carries the banner for the survival of all<br />

humanity.<br />

If This Is Freedom continues the story of struggle for Loyalist settlers in Nova Scotia after the American<br />

Revolutionary War. In the black settlement of Birchtown, times are especially hard for the former slaves.<br />

one she will come to regret as it sets off a chain of unusual events that put her under further pressure.<br />

With her faith in the settlement running dry and the Birchtowners abandoning the settlement, Sarah is<br />

perplexed and soon faces the taxing option of whether to hold on to the only real life she has ever known<br />

or let go.<br />

THE LORD OF OPIUM<br />

FARMER, NANCY<br />

Matt has always been nothing but a clone—grown from a strip of old El Patron’s skin. Now, at age<br />

fourteen, he finds himself suddenly thrust into the position of ruling over his own country. The Land of<br />

Opium is the largest territory of the Dope Confederacy, which ranges on the map like an intestine from the<br />

ruins of San Diego to the ruins of Matamoros. But while Opium thrives, the rest of the world has been<br />

devastated by ecological disaster—and hidden in Opium is the cure. And that isn’t all that awaits within<br />

the depths of Opium. Matt is haunted by the ubiquitous army of eejits, zombielike workers harnessed to<br />

the old El Patron’s sinister system of drug growing—people stripped of the very qualities that once made<br />

them human. Matt wants to use his newfound power to help, to stop the suffering, but he can’t even find a<br />

way to smuggle his childhood love, Maria, across the border and into Opium. Instead, his every move hits<br />

a roadblock, some from the enemies that surround him…and some from a voice within himself. For who is<br />

Matt really, but the clone of an evil, murderous dictator?<br />

MORE THAN THIS<br />

NESS, PATRICK<br />

A boy named Seth drowns, desperate and alone in his final moments, losing his life as the pounding sea<br />

claims him. But then he wakes. He is naked, thirsty, starving. But alive. How is that possible? He<br />

remembers dying, his bones breaking, his skull dashed upon the rocks. So how is he here? And where is<br />

this place? It looks like the suburban English town where he lived as a child, before an unthinkable<br />

tragedy happened and his family moved to America. But the neighborhood around his old house is<br />

overgrown, covered in dust, and completely abandoned. What’s going on? And why is it that whenever he<br />

closes his eyes, he falls prey to vivid, agonizing memories that seem more real than the world around<br />

him?<br />

NEVER FADE<br />

BRACKEN, ALEXANDRA<br />

Ruby never asked for the abilities that almost cost her her life. Now she must call upon them on a daily<br />

basis, leading dangerous missions to bring down a corrupt government and breaking into the minds of her<br />

enemies. Other kids in the Children's League call Ruby "Leader," but she knows what she really is: a<br />

monster. When Ruby is entrusted with an explosive secret, she must embark on her most dangerous<br />

mission yet: leaving the Children's League behind. Crucial information about the disease that killed most<br />

survived every attempt to destroy it. But the truth is only saved in one place: a flashdrive in the hands of<br />

Liam Stewart, the boy Ruby once believed was her future-and who now wouldn't recognize her.<br />

NIGHTMARE CITY<br />

KLAVAN, ANDREW<br />

As a reporter for his high school newspaper, Tom Harding was tracking the best story of his life—when,<br />

suddenly, his life turned very, very weird. He woke up one morning to find his house empty . . . his street<br />

empty . . . his whole town empty . . . empty except for an eerie, creeping fog—and whatever creatures<br />

were slowly moving toward him through the fog. Now Tom’s once-ordinary world has become something<br />

out of a horror movie. How did it happen? Is it real? Is he dreaming? Has there been a zombie<br />

apocalypse? Has he died and gone to hell? Tom is a good reporter—he knows how to look for answers—<br />

but no one has ever covered a story like this before. With the fog closing in and the hungry creatures of<br />

the fog surrounding him, he has only a few hours to find out how he lost the world he knew. In this bizarre<br />

universe nothing is what it seems and everything—including Tom’s life—hangs in the balance.<br />

Driggs, is dead . . . sort of. She’s a fugitive, on the run from the maniacal new mayor of Croak and the<br />

Afterlife and all the souls of the Damned hang in the balance, it falls to Lex and her friends to make one<br />

final, impossible choice.<br />

KAUFMAN, AMIE<br />

It's a night like any other on board the Icarus. Then, catastrophe strikes: the massive luxury spaceliner is<br />

yanked out of hyperspace and plummets into the nearest planet. Lilac LaRoux and Tarver Merendsen<br />

survive. And they seem to be alone. Lilac is the daughter of the richest man in the universe. Tarver comes<br />

from nothing, a young war hero who learned long ago that girls like Lilac are more trouble than they're<br />

worth. But with only each other to rely on, Lilac and Tarver must work together, making a tortuous journey<br />

across the eerie, deserted terrain to seek help. Then, against all odds, Lilac and Tarver find a strange<br />

in their own world, they begin to wonder-would they be better off staying here forever? Everything<br />

changes when they uncover the truth behind the chilling whispers that haunt their every step.<br />

Nail. He learns the powers of the tinderbox and the wolves whose master he becomes. But will all the<br />

TO BE PERFECTLY HONEST<br />

SONES, SONYA<br />

Fifteen-year-old Colette is addicted to lying. Her shrink says this is because she’s got a very bad case of<br />

Daughter-of-a-famous-movie-star Disorder—so she lies to escape out from under her mother’s massive<br />

shadow. But Colette doesn’t see it that way. She says she lies because it’s the most fun she can have<br />

with her clothes on. Not that she’s had that much fun with her clothes off. At least not yet, anyway…<br />

When her mother drags her away from Hollywood to spend the entire summer on location in a boring little<br />

town in the middle of nowhere, Colette is less than thrilled. But then she meets a sexy biker named<br />

Connor. He’s older, gorgeous, funny, and totally into her. So what if she lies to him about her age, and<br />

about who her mother is? I mean, she has to keep her mother’s identity a secret from him. If he finds out<br />

who she really is, he’ll forget all about Colette, and start panting and drooling and asking her for her<br />

mother’s autograph. Just like everyone always does.<br />

TOUCHED BY FIRE<br />

WATTS, IRENE N.<br />

Touched by Fire, Irene N. Watt's exquisite new novel, explores one family's journey as they flee from the<br />

pogroms of Russia in 1905, where the Cossacks burn villages to the ground, to Berlin, Germany, where<br />

Jews have a hard time living and working in peace, to the streets of the Lower East Side in New York.<br />

Teenage Miriam gives a first-hand account of the excitement everyone feels about going to America, the<br />

"Golden Land," the journey in steerage, the arrival at Ellis Island, and the discrimination the immigrants<br />

feel while seeking employment. When Miriam finally lands a job at the Triangle Shirt Waist Company as a<br />

cuff setter, she believes her future in the New World is finally secure. But on March 25, 1911, the fire that<br />

starts from overflowing bins of material scraps rages into what becomes known as the Triangle Shirtwaist<br />

Factory fire, and Miriam's life is forever changed.<br />

THE TRUE TALE OF THE MONSTER BILLY DEAN<br />

ALMOND, DAVID<br />

Billy Dean is a secret child. He has a beautiful young mother and a father who arrives at night carrying the<br />

scents of candles and incense and cigarettes. Birds fly to his window. Mice run out from his walls. His<br />

world is a carpet, a bed, pictures of the holy island, and a single locked door. His father fills his mind and<br />

his dreams with mysterious tales and memories and dreadful warnings. But then his father disappears,<br />

and Billy’s mother brings him out into the world at last. He learns the horrifying story of what was saved<br />

and what was destroyed on the day he was born, the day the bombers came to Blinkbonny. The kind<br />

butcher, Mr. McCaufrey, and the medium, Missus Malone, are waiting for him. He becomes The Angel<br />

Child, one who can heal the living, contact the dead, bring comfort to a troubled world. But there is one<br />

figure who is beyond healing, who comes looking for Billy himself — and is determined on a kind of<br />

reckoning.<br />

TWO BOYS KISSING<br />

LEVITHAN, DAVID<br />

David Levithan tells the based-on-true-events story of Harry and Craig, two 17-year-olds who are about to<br />

take part in a 32-hour marathon of kissing to set a new Guinness World Record—all of which is narrated<br />

by a Greek Chorus of the generation of gay men lost to AIDS. While the two increasingly dehydrated and<br />

sleep-deprived boys are locking lips, they become a focal point in the lives of other teen boys dealing with<br />

languishing long-term relationships, coming out, navigating gender identity, and falling deeper into the<br />

digital rabbit hole of gay hookup sites—all while the kissing former couple tries to figure out their own<br />

feelings for each other<br />

SHUSTERMAN, NEAL<br />

Proactive Citizenry, the company which created Cam from the parts of unwound teens, is planning to<br />

mass produce rewound teens like Cam for military purposes. And below the surface of that horror lies a<br />

sinister layer of intrigue: Proactive Citizenry has been suppressing technology that could make unwinding<br />

completely unnecessary. As Conner, Risa, and Lev uncover these shocking secrets, enraged teens begin<br />

to march on Washington to demand justice and a better future. But more trouble is brewing. Starkey’s<br />

group of storked teens are growing more powerful and militant with each new recruit. And if they have<br />

their way, they’ll burn the harvest camps to the ground, and put every adult in them before a firing<br />

squad—which could destroy any chance America has for a peaceful future.<br />

WERLIN, NANCY<br />

Fenella was the first Scarborough girl to be cursed, hundreds of years ago, and she has been trapped in<br />

the faerie realm ever since, forced to watch generations of daughters try to break this same faerie curse<br />

that has enslaved them all. But now Fenella’s descendant, Lucy, has accomplished the impossible and<br />

broken the curse, so why is Fenella still trapped in Faerie? In her desperation, Fenella makes a deal with<br />

the faerie queen: If she can accomplish three acts of destruction, she will be free, at last, to die. What<br />

she doesn't realize is that these acts must be aimed at her own family – and if she fails, the<br />

consequences will be dire, for all of the Scarborough girls. How can she possibly choose to hurt her own<br />

cherished family – not to mention the new man whom she’s surprised to find herself falling in love with?<br />

But if she doesn’t go through with the tasks, how will she manage to save her dear ones?<br />

THE ABOMINABLES<br />

IBBOTSON, EVA<br />

Renowned literary great Eva Ibbotson delivers a final novel in her classic, much-loved style. A previously<br />

unpublished work from this favorite author, The Abominables follows a family of yetis who are forced, by<br />

tourism, to leave their home in the Himalayas and make their way across Europe to a possible new home.<br />

Siblings Con and Ellen shepherd the yetis along their eventful journey, with the help of Perry, a goodnatured<br />

truck driver. Through a mountain rescue in the Alps and a bullfight in Spain, the yetis at last find<br />

their way to an ancestral estate in England—only to come upon a club of voracious hunters who have set<br />

their sights on the most exotic prey of all: the Abominable Snowmen.<br />

BLUFFTON<br />

PHELAN, MATT<br />

In the summer of 1908, in Muskegon, Michigan, a visiting troupe of vaudeville performers is about the<br />

most exciting thing since baseball. They’re summering in nearby Bluffton, so Henry has a few months to<br />

ogle the elephant and the zebra, the tightrope walkers and — lo and behold — a slapstick actor his own<br />

age named Buster Keaton. The show folk say Buster is indestructible; his father throws him around as<br />

part of the act and the audience roars, while Buster never cracks a smile. Henry longs to learn to take a<br />

fall like Buster, "the human mop," but Buster just wants to play ball with Henry and his friends. With<br />

signature nostalgia, Scott O’Dell Award–winning graphic novelist Matt Phelan visualizes a bygone era<br />

with lustrous color, dynamic lines, and flawless dramatic pacing.<br />

THE BOY ON THE WOODEN BOX<br />

LEYSON, LEON<br />

Leon Leyson (born Leib Lezjon) was only ten years old when the Nazis invaded Poland and his family<br />

was forced to relocate to the Krakow ghetto. With incredible luck, perseverance, and grit, Leyson was<br />

able to survive the sadism of the Nazis, including that of the demonic Amon Goeth, commandant of<br />

Plaszow, the concentration camp outside Krakow. Ultimately, it was the generosity and cunning of one<br />

man, a man named Oskar Schindler, who saved Leon Leyson’s life, and the lives of his mother, his father,<br />

and two of his four siblings, by adding their names to his list of workers in his factory—a list that became<br />

world renowned: Schindler’s List. This, the only memoir published by a former Schindler’s List child,<br />

perfectly captures the innocence of a small boy who goes through the unthinkable. Most notable is the<br />

lack of rancor, the lack of venom, and the abundance of dignity in Mr. Leyson’s telling.<br />

WESTON, ROBERT PAUL<br />

Elliot Von Doppler and his friend Leslie think nothing ever happens in Bickleburgh, except inside the<br />

gleaming headquarters of DENKi-3000—the world’s eighth-largest electronics factory. Beneath the glass<br />

towers and glittering skywalks, there's a rambling old mansion from which all the company’s amazing<br />

inventions spring forth. And no one except Uncle Archie knows what’s behind the second-to-last door at<br />

the end of the hall. Until Elliot and Leslie are invited to take a glimpse inside. They find stooped, troll-like<br />

creatures with jutting jaws and broken teeth. Tiny winged things that sparkle as they fly. And huge,<br />

hulking, hairy nonhumans (with horns). It is unlike anything they’ve ever seen. But when Chuck<br />

Brickweather threatens to shut down the DENKi-3000 factory if a new product isn’t presented soon, the<br />

creatures know they are in danger.<br />

DIAL M FOR MORNA<br />

MUNDAY, EVAN<br />

As the Dead Kid Detective Agency embarks on its second (mis)adventure, October Schwartz and her five<br />

deadest friends are back, turning over metaphoric rocks and finding the centipedes underneath. In this<br />

latest volume, set against a backdrop of yuletide pandemonium, they discover dark supernatural forces at<br />

work in Sticksville and sleuth their way through a mystery involving a blizzard of suffragettes, ice skating<br />

disasters, anti-Asian sentiment, and the Titanic. Although the holiday season has descended upon the<br />

town like an eggnog rainstorm, October has no time for candy canes or mistletoe. She’s busy dealing with<br />

an oddly pleasant new history teacher, her two living friends’ new roles as high school radio DJs, and<br />

mysteries to be solved before the year end. October and her ghost friends are hot on the trail of those<br />

responsible for Morna MacIsaac’s death in 1914—or as hot as one can be on a 100-year-old trail—when<br />

Yumi becomes the target of a sinister harassment campaign at school. Solving dual concurrent mysteries<br />

at once won’t be easy, but the intrepid heroine in black eyeliner loves a challenge.<br />

FALLOUT<br />

STRASSER, TODD<br />

In the summer of 1962, the possibility of nuclear war is all anyone talks about. But Scott’s dad is the only<br />

one in the neighborhood who actually prepares for the worst. As the neighbors scoff, he builds a bomb<br />

shelter to hold his family and stocks it with just enough supplies to keep the four of them alive for two<br />

critical weeks. In the middle of the night in late October, when the unthinkable happens, those same<br />

neighbors force their way into the shelter before Scott’s dad can shut the door. With not enough room, not<br />

enough food, and not enough air, life inside the shelter is filthy, physically draining, and emotionally<br />

fraught. But even worse is the question of what will — and won’t — remain when the door is opened.<br />

FLORA AND ULYSSES<br />

DICAMILLO, KATE<br />

It begins, as the best superhero stories do, with a tragic accident that has unexpected consequences. The<br />

squirrel never saw the vacuum cleaner coming, but self-described cynic Flora Belle Buckman, who has<br />

read every issue of the comic book Terrible Things Can Happen to You!, is the just the right person to<br />

step in and save him. What neither can predict is that Ulysses (the squirrel) has been born anew, with<br />

powers of strength, flight, and misspelled poetry — and that Flora will be changed too, as she discovers<br />

the possibility of hope and the promise of a capacious heart. From #1 New York Times best-selling author<br />

Kate DiCamillo comes a laugh-out-loud story filled with eccentric, endearing characters and featuring an<br />

exciting new format — a novel interspersed with comic-style graphic sequences and full-page<br />

illustrations, all rendered in black-and-white by up-and-coming artist K. G. Campbell.<br />

GRIS GRIMLY'S FRANKENSTEIN<br />

Gris Grimly's Frankenstein is a twisted, fresh, and utterly original full-length, full-color graphic-novel<br />

adaptation of Mary Shelley's original text, brought to life by acclaimed illustrator Gris Grimly. This is the<br />

first fully illustrated version to use the original 1818 text and is destined to capture the imagination of<br />

those new to the story as well as those who know it well. New York Times bestselling illustrator Gris<br />

Grimly has long considered Frankenstein to be one of his chief inspirations. From the bones and flesh of<br />

the original, he has cut and stitched Mary Shelley's text to his own artwork, creating something entirely<br />

new: a stunningly original remix, both classic and contemporary, sinister and seductive, heart-stopping<br />

and heartbreaking.<br />

HANDEL, WHO KNEW WHAT HE LIKED<br />

ANDERSON, M.T. & HAWKES, KEVIN<br />

This is not your usual picture book biography. Nor was George Frideric Handel your everyday eighteenthcentury<br />

composer. This witty and yet rigorously researched and accessible biography captures Handel’s<br />

essential spirit—from a child who smuggled a clavichord into the attic to play music against his father’s<br />

orders to a young man who imported forty-five pounds of mountain snow to chill wine for a gala—as well<br />

as his remarkable, enduring musical triumphs. But M. T. Anderson also shows Handel’s struggles and<br />

chronicles the illness, ill fortune, and despair that led to his greatest achievement, the Messiah. With<br />

impeccable detail and a wink at the reader, Kevin Hawkes illustrates the singular story of Handel and the<br />

music through which he lives on.<br />

comically backfires. A biracial girl is amused when her dad clears seats for his family on a crowded<br />

subway in under a minute flat, simply by sitting quietly in between two uptight white women. Edited by<br />

acclaimed author and speaker Mitali Perkins, this collection of fiction and nonfiction uses a mix of styles<br />

as diverse as their authors, from laugh-out-loud funny to wry, ironic, or poignant, in prose, poetry, and<br />

comic form.<br />

THE OPPOSITE OF GEEK<br />

VOROS, RIA<br />

Gretchen Meyers doesn't know exactly what went wrong, but life in the tenth grade is beginning to suck.<br />

As if having a semi-nudist, food-obsessed family wasn't awkward enough, she has lost her best friend to<br />

the fanatical school swim team, and her math grade is so close to negative digits that only emergency<br />

tutoring can save it. So far, so high school. Then James/Dean rolls into her life — also known as her zitfaced<br />

chemistry tutor James and his slightly less zit-faced cousin Dean. Kind-hearted rebels without a<br />

cause, they draw Gretchen out of classroom hell, and briefly the world seems full of possibility.<br />

quest for popularity. Papa Dad and Daddy will provide the transportation, and Lydia and Julie will provide<br />

But it’s also dangerous. How much will they have to sacrifice before they can be together? In a masterful<br />

RUSSIAN ROULETTE: THE STORY OF AN ASSASSIN<br />

HOROWITZ, ANTHONY<br />

When Ian Rider died at the hands of the assassin Yassen Gregorovich, Alex, ready or not, was thrust into<br />

the world of international espionage—the world’s only teenage spy. Alex vowed revenge against Yassen<br />

and the two have battled ever since. Yet, years ago, it was none other than Alex’s own father who trained<br />

and mentored Yassen, turning him into the killer he would eventually become. What makes us choose<br />

evil? Why did one boy choose to kill while another chose to risk his life to save others? In some ways,<br />

Alex Rider and Yassen Gregorovich are mirror images of each other. Yet the paths they traveled turned<br />

them into mortal enemies. This is Yassen’s story. A journey down a darkened path.<br />

When the Man in the Moon brought together the Guardians, he warned them that they would face some<br />

terrible evils as they strove to protect the children of earth. But nothing could have prepared them for this:<br />

Pitch has disappeared and taken Katherine with him. And now the Guardians are not only down one<br />

member, but a young girl is missing. Fortunately, MiM knows just the man to join the team. Sanderson<br />

ManSnoozy—known in most circles as the Sandman—may be sleepy, but he’s also stalwart and clever<br />

and has a precocious ability to utilize sand in myriad ways. If the other Guardians can just convince<br />

Sandy that good can triumph evil, that good dreams can banish nightmares, they’ll have themselves quite<br />

a squad. But if they can’t…they might never see Katherine again.<br />

Discover the origins of the warrior Clans in the second book of this thrilling prequel arc from megabestselling<br />

author Erin Hunter. The Dawn of the Clans series takes readers back to the earliest days of<br />

the Clans, when the cats first settled in the forest and began to forge the Warrior code. The mountain cats<br />

from the Tribe of Rushing Water followed the sun trail to a new territory, convinced that in a land with<br />

more prey, their lives would be free from strife. But while no cat has gone hungry, tensions are rising. The<br />

once firmly united group has split in two—and a young cat named Thunder is caught in the middle.<br />

TIME FETCH<br />

HERRICK, AMY<br />

Edward picks up what he thinks is a rock. He doesn’t know it is a sleeping Time Fetch—and touching it<br />

will release its foragers too soon and alter the entire fabric of time and space. Soon the bell rings to end<br />

class just as it has begun. Buses race down streets, too far behind schedule to stop for passengers.<br />

Buildings and sidewalks begin to disappear as the whole fabric of the universe starts to unravel. To try to<br />

stop the foragers, Edward must depend on the help of his classmates Feenix, Danton, and Brigit—<br />

whether he likes it or not. They all have touched the Fetch, and it has drawn them together in a strange<br />

and thrilling adventure. The boundaries between worlds and dimensions are blurred, and places and<br />

creatures on the other side are much like the ones they’ve always known—but slightly twisted, a little<br />

darker, and much more dangerous.<br />

TITAN'S CURSE: THE GRAPHIC NOVEL<br />

RIORDAN, RICK<br />

When Percy receives an urgent distress call from Grover, he immediately prepares for battle. He knows<br />

he'll need his powerful demigod allies, Annabeth and Thalia, at his side; his trusty bronze sword, Riptide;<br />

and a ride from his mom. The demigods race to the rescue, only to find that Grover has made an<br />

important discovery: two new powerful half-bloods, whose parentage is unknown. But that's not all that<br />

awaits them. The Titan lord, Kronos, has set up his most devious trap yet, and the young heroes have just<br />

fallen prey. Now, Percy and his friends are faced with their most dangerous challenge-the chilling<br />

prophecy of the Titan's Curse. They must rescue the goddess Artemis by the Winter Solstice, or all will be<br />

lost including Annabeth. Rick Riordan's internationally best-selling The Titan's Curse becomes a graphic<br />

novel in the hands of comic-book luminaries Robert Venditti, Attila Futaki, and Gregory Guilhaumond.<br />

THE WHATNOT<br />

BACHMANN, STEFAN<br />

This is the sequel to Stefan Bachmann's acclaimed debut novel The Peculiar. The Los Angeles Times<br />

called The Peculiar "a book that, at times, recalls Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment, Charles Dickens's<br />

A Tale of Two Cities, and more recent classics, such as J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter and Lemony<br />

Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events." While The Whatnot stands alone as a fast-paced, clockworkand<br />

steampunk-infused fantasy adventure, readers of The Peculiar will find it especially thrilling. At the<br />

conclusion of The Peculiar, changeling Bartholomew Kettle lost his sister Hettie when she was pulled<br />

through a mysterious door and into the faery-inhabited forest of the Old Country. In The Whatnot, readers<br />

are introduced to unforgettable new characters, including Pikey Thomas, a boy who joins forces with<br />

Bartholomew to rescue Hettie.<br />

PEARCE, PHILIPPA<br />

Amy may never have spent a night away from home, but today she declares that she wants to spend not<br />

one but three nights at her grandma’s house. So she packs a bag, and off she goes. During the day, she<br />

and Grandma have a lovely time, but when Amy is alone in bed she starts to miss her mother and her<br />

baby brother and their dog, Bonzo. Luckily Amy has brought her three best things for a visit, which offer a<br />

heartening taste of home — in the most remarkable ways! From the stellar creative pair of Philippa<br />

Pearce and Helen Craig comes a wonderfully reassuring bedtime tale.<br />

THE BLESSING CUP<br />

POLACCO, PATRICIA<br />

As a young Russian Jewish girl in the early 1900s, Anna and her family lived in fear of the Czar’s soldiers.<br />

The family lived a hard life and had few possessions—their treasure was a beautiful china tea set. A<br />

wedding gift to Anna’s parents, the tea set came with a wish that “Anyone who drinks from this will have<br />

blessings from God. They will never know a day of hunger. Their lives will always have flavor. They will<br />

know love and joy and they will never be poor.” When Anna’s family leaves Russia for America, they bring<br />

the tea set and its blessings. A source of heritage and security, the tea set helps Anna’s family make<br />

friends and find better lives in America. A cup from the tea set—The Blessing Cup—became an anchor of<br />

family history, and it remains a symbol of lasting love more than a century later.<br />

Finding advice on caring for a dog, a cat, a fish, even a dinosaur is easy. But what if somebody’s taste in<br />

pets runs to the more mechanical kind? What about those who like cogs and gears more than feathers<br />

and fur? People who prefer the call of a train whistle to the squeal of a guinea pig? Or maybe dream of a<br />

smudge of soot on their cheek, not slobber? In this spectacularly illustrated picture book, kids who love<br />

locomotives (and what kid doesn’t?) will discover where trains live, what they like to eat, and the best train<br />

tricks around—everything it takes to lay the tracks for a long and happy friendship. All aboard!<br />

I CAN SEE JUST FINE<br />

BARCLAY, ERIC<br />

Paige is just like every other kid. She goes to school. She practices her violin. She plays outside. The only<br />

problem is, she cannot quite see the chalkboard, her sheet music, or anything else! Despite Paige’s<br />

repeated refrain of “I can see just fine,” the comical illustrations portray a different story. Paige’s parents<br />

decide it’s time for her to visit the eye doctor, despite her protests. But Paige’s stubbornness quickly<br />

dissolves as she braves an enthralling eye checkup, enjoys a playful frame selection, and, most<br />

importantly, ends up with perfect eyesight! Barclay successfully depicts a very real and relevant issue with<br />

lightheartedness and gentle humor. Young readers will relate to Paige’s journey and celebrate her triumph<br />

of seeing clearly in the end.<br />

FARLEY, BRIANNE<br />

Ike wants to write a story, an incredible story. He’s all ready to go, but even after cleaning his room and<br />

calling his best friend, he somehow can’t seem to get started. And then Ike realizes what’s missing — he<br />

velvety, dark, and sneaky, just like ink? How far will he go to get it?<br />

IS THIS PANAMA?<br />

THORNHILL, JAN<br />

When Sammy, a young Wilson's warbler, wakes up one frosty August morning near the Arctic Circle, he<br />

instinctively knows that it's time to make his first migratory journey south to Panama. But there's one<br />

problem — where's Panama? All the other warblers having left without him, Sammy sets off on his<br />

journey by himself, stopping to ask the same question of each of the different animals that he meets along<br />

the way: "Is this Panama?" From the caribou heading to his winter forest to the monarch butterflies flitting<br />

to Mexico, every animal has a different destination and different advice for Sammy on how to find his way.<br />

Finally, a flock of his warbler cousins shows Sammy that finding Panama is as easy as following the stars.<br />

Animal migration patterns and seasonal changes are on display throughout this fascinating story,<br />

complemented by intricate paper collage, watercolor, and pen-and-ink illustrations.<br />

In a near wordless masterpiece that could only have been devised by David Wiesner, a cat named Mr.<br />

Wuffles doesn't care about toy mice or toy goldfish. He’s much more interested in playing with a little<br />

spaceship full of actual aliens—but the ship wasn't designed for this kind of rough treatment. Between<br />

motion sickness and damaged equipment, the aliens are in deep trouble. When the space visitors dodge<br />

the cat and take shelter behind the radiator to repair the damage, they make a host of insect friends. The<br />

result? A humorous exploration of cooperation between aliens and insects, and of the universal nature of<br />

communication involving symbols, “cave” paintings, and gestures of friendship.<br />

Your neighbor says red is angry like a dragon’s breath, but you think it’s brave like a fire truck. Or maybe<br />

your best friend likes pink because it’s pretty like a ballerina’s tutu, but you find it annoying — like a piece<br />

of gum stuck on your shoe. In a subtle, child-friendly narrative, art teacher and debut author Jessica<br />

Young suggests that colors may evoke as many emotions as there are people to look at them — and<br />

opens up infinite possibilities for seeing the world in a wonderful new way.<br />

cook recipes passed down from grandma. Such a mom may be different than other moms, but...she is<br />

also clearly the best. Vividly illustrated by Meilo So, this funny and heartwarming picture book about<br />

Already an old man, desert guide Issa has seen thousands of dawns. One particular morning, however,<br />

the desert reveals something new; something that changes his life. Tucked away in a narrow cave,<br />

shielded from a treacherous dust storm by a faithful camel, a baby girl lies wrapped in fine cotton and<br />

wearing half of a star medallion around her neck. Issa names the girl Mariama. As years pass, Issa loses<br />

his sight, and Mariama becomes his eyes. So Issa doesn’t see the pattern on the robes of a mysterious<br />

young traveler who comes through their village, or the medallion he wears. Who is this young stranger,<br />

and what does his arrival mean for the life Issa and Mariama share in the desert?<br />

PAY IT FORWARD KIDS<br />

RUNSTADLER, NANCY<br />

12 Kids...12 Stories...Countless Hearts Touched In "Pay It Forward Kids," readers will meet ordinary kids<br />

from across North America who have done extraordinary things, all on their own initiatives. They have set<br />

out to "pay it forward" to someone else, with astonishing results. The ripple effect of their deeds have<br />

inspired others to join their causes, and in some cases, to start missions of their own. These kids have<br />

raised both money and awareness for causes such as homelessness, human rights, orphans, and<br />

literacy. They've rescued child slaves, provided hope to the sick, and comfort for the dying. They've also<br />

enabled others to enjoy pleasures that many people take for granted. These powerful stories demonstrate<br />

that you're never too young to make a difference or to improve the life of another. Kindness can be done<br />

by anyone...you just need to step up and start. A percentage of all royalties from this project will be<br />

donated to the official Pay It Forward Foundation to continue to support this message and work.<br />

THE RACE FOR THE CHINESE ZODIAC<br />

WANG, GABRIELLE<br />

Long ago in ancient China, the Jade Emperor, ruler of heaven and earth, proclaimed a mighty race,<br />

saying that the first twelve animals to cross the river would have a year named after them. When the gong<br />

rings out, Tiger leaps in the river, followed by peaceful Rabbit clutching a log. Rat and Cat climb on Ox’s<br />

back, and Dog splashes in the shallows while Rooster finds a raft and takes clever Monkey and gentle<br />

Goat on board. Snake hitches a ride in Horse’s mane, powerful Dragon flies over the river, and Pig plays<br />

happily in the mud. But thirteen animals are racing for only twelve places on the Zodiac. Who will be<br />

honest, and who devious? Who will help friends along the way? Who will come first — and who will miss<br />

out?<br />

THE SILVER BUTTON<br />

GRAHAM, BOB<br />

At 9:59 on a Thursday morning, Jodie draws a duck. As her pen hovers in the air, ready to add a silver<br />

button to the duck’s boot, her little brother Jonathan pushes to his feet, sways, and takes his first step. At<br />

the exact same moment, their mom plays a pennywhistle in the kitchen, a man buys fresh bread at the<br />

bakery, a baby is born, a soldier says good-bye to his mom, a granddad and granddaughter play with<br />

leaves in the park, a blackbird finds a worm. . . . From an ordinary scene of an apartment strewn with<br />

child’s artwork and toys to a bird’s-eye view of a city morning pulsing with life, Bob Graham celebrates a<br />

whole world-vision in a single moment, encouraging readers to stop, observe, and savor the world around<br />

them.<br />

THE SPELLING BEE BEFORE RECESS<br />

ROSE, DEBORAH LEE<br />

It’s right before recess, and the annual school spelling bee is down to just three spellers: Cornelius the<br />

Genius, Smart Ruby, and The Slugger, who never strikes out. Round after round, the words whizz at<br />

them, but with one minute left until recess, there’s still no winner. Who will triumph? It all comes down to<br />

one final word, and a curveball that no one sees coming! Deborah Lee Rose’s clever rhyming text packs a<br />

laugh-out-loud wallop with words that young readers will enjoy spelling and reading aloud again and<br />

again. Fun and whimsical illustrations by Carey F. Armstrong-Ellis provide the perfect balance of humor<br />

and suspense as readers find out whether The Slugger will hit a grand slam or finally strike out.<br />

BURNINGHAM, JOHN<br />

Hare, Hippopotamus, and Elephant all live together in the forest. But often, when Hippopotamus and<br />

Elephant have nothing better to do, they tease Hare and say horrid things to him. When Hare finally gets<br />

fed up with them, he conceives a plan: he will challenge each of the massive creatures to a tug-of-war<br />

competition. On either side of the trees, Elephant and Hippopotamus pull and tug all through the night,<br />

incredulous that Hare could be so strong! With cheeky wit and his signature illustrative style, John<br />

Burningham makes the case that even brute strength can be outweighed by brains.<br />

WHEN CHARLEY MET GRAMPA<br />

HEST, AMY<br />

It’s a snowy day, and Grampa is coming by train for a visit. Henry can’t wait! He sets out with Charley, his<br />

beloved pup, pulling a sled for Grampa’s suitcase. To pass time at the station, Henry tells Charley about<br />

Grampa — how he has the longest feet and snores wild, and how he doesn’t know how to be friends with<br />

a dog. At last Grampa arrives, but when a sudden gust of wind blows his hat away, Charley disappears<br />

into the whirling snow — and returns, to their relief, carrying Grampa’s green cap!<br />

WHY DO WE FIGHT?<br />

WALKER, NIKI<br />

Battles, protests, standoffs, strikes. We hear about them all the time. On the surface, a battle and a<br />

protest don't seem to have much in common, but they're really just two ways of handling a dispute. One<br />

uses violence, the other uses signs and picket lines. But both start as a disagreement between two<br />

groups of people. Both are conflicts. Since it's impossible for people to agree on everything all the time,<br />

conflicts naturally pop up every day, all over the world. Sometimes they turn into full-blown wars, which<br />

can be a lot trickier to understand than the conflicts that pop up in everyday life, but every conflict has<br />

some things in common. Using real world examples, Why Do We Fight? teaches kids to recognize the<br />

structures, factors, and complex histories that go into creating conflicts, whether personal or global — as<br />

well as the similarities between both. They'll be given tools to seek out information, enabling them to<br />

make informed opinions while learning to respect that others may form different ones.<br />

WITH A MIGHTY HAND<br />

EHRLICH, AMY<br />

Amy Ehrlich retains the beauty, drama, and mystery of the Torah in this unique adaptation, gorgeously<br />

illustrated with paintings by Daniel Nevins. The Torah is the first five books of the Hebrew Bible, which<br />

Christians call the Old Testament. It tells the story of the beginning of the Jewish people and their<br />

relationship with God. From Adam and Eve to the first patriarch, Abraham, to Moses, who led his people<br />

to the promised land, the stories in the Torah have been studied and revered since it was first written<br />

down nearly 3,000 years ago. Now in this glorious volume, Amy Ehrlich crafts an authentic, lyrical<br />

adaptation that is presented as a continuous narrative, one that honors the complexities of the original<br />

text. Daniel Nevins's richly hued paintings bring the ancient wonders of the Torah to resonant life, making<br />

this truly a gift to savor, share, and treasure.<br />
