FIGURES OF BEAUTY
MACFARLANE, DAVID
A young man travels to Paris in 1968, where a series of unlikely events take him to a tiny village in Italy—
and the one great love of his life. A marble merchant meets a couple on their honeymoon, introducing
them to the sensual beauty of Carrara. An Italian woman arrives in Canada to find the father she never
knew. A terrible accident in a marble quarry changes the course of a young boy’s life and, ultimately, sets
in motion each of these stories, which Macfarlane masterfully shapes into a magnificent whole. Oliver
Hughson falls in love with wild, bohemian Anna over the course of one glorious summer in Italy. Bound by
a sense of responsibility to his adoptive parents back home in Canada, however, he leaves her, an act he
will regret for the rest of his life. Narrated by the daughter he never knew he had, The Figures of Beauty is
a love story of mythic proportions. Through luck, fate and great good fortune, Oliver found the one place
and the one woman he should never have left. This is the story of him trying to find his way back.

THE FINAL CUT
COULTER, CATHERINE
Scotland Yard’s new chief inspector Nicholas Drummond is on the first flight to New York when he learns
his colleague, Elaine York, the “minder” of the Crown Jewels for the “Jewel of the Lion” exhibit at the
Metropolitan Museum of Art, was found murdered. Then the centerpiece of the exhibit, the infamous Kohi-Noor
Diamond, is stolen from the Queen Mother’s crown. Drummond, American-born but raised in the
UK, is a dark, dangerous, fast-rising star in the Yard who never backs down. And this case is no
exception. Special Agents Lacey Sherlock and Dillon Savich from Coulter’s bestselling FBI series don’t
hesitate to help Drummond find the cunning international thief known as the Fox. Nonstop action and high
stakes intensify as the chase gets deadly. The Fox will stop at nothing to deliver the Koh-i-Noor to the
man who believes in its deadly prophecy. Nicholas Drummond, along with his partner, FBI Special Agent
Mike Caine, lay it on the line to retrieve the diamond for Queen and country.
