When Harry visits his publisher in New York, he's told that he's been elected the new president of English PEN, and immediately launches
a campaign for the release of a fellow author, Anatoly Babakov, who's imprisoned in a Russian gulag in Siberia. Babakov's crime? Writing
a book called Uncle Joe, an insight into what it was like to work as the interpreter for Josef Stalin. So determined is Harry to see Babakov
released and the book published, that he puts his own life in danger.
Emma Clifton, now the chairman of Barrington Shipping, is facing the repercussions of the IRA attack on the Buckingham. Some board
members feel she should resign, but Sebastian Clifton, newly elected to the board, is determined that she'll remain Chairman.
Sir Giles Barrington is now a minister of the Crown, and looks set for even higher office, until an official trip to Berlin does not end as a
diplomatic success. Once again, Giles's political career is thrown off balance by none other than his old adversary, Major Alex Fisher,
who, for the second time, is selected to stand against him at the general election. But who wins this time?

As with Deborah Burrows' successful A Stranger in my Street and Taking a Chance, this novel has an incredibly authentic
narrative voice that paints an extraordinary picture of 1940s Melbourne.
Deborah's father was in the 2nd Independent Company, and was one of 'Sparrow Force', a group of commandos who were trapped
on Timor when the Japanese invaded in February 1942 and who fought a vicious and successful guerilla war for months against a
much greater Japanese force. Deborah was a Legacy kid, and she grew up knowing first-hand the awful cost of war.
Part wartime love story, part spy mystery, A Time of Secrets will appeal to fans of Fiona Mcintosh's The Tailor's Girl and Mary
Ann Shaffer's The Guernsey Literary & Potato Peel Pie Society, as well as readers of women's fiction more widely.

Anna Benz lives in comfort and affluence with her husband and three young children in Dietlikon, a picture-perfect suburb of Zurich.
Anna, an American expat, has chosen this life far from home; but, despite its tranquility and order, inside she is falling apart. Feeling
adrift and unable to connect with her husband or his family; with the fellow expatriates who try to befriend her; or even, increasingly,
her own thoughts and emotions, Anna attempts to assert her agency in the only way that makes sense to her: by engaging in short-lived
but intense sexual affairs. But adultery, too, has its own morality, and when Anna finds herself crossing a line, she will set off a terrible
chain of events that will end in unspeakable tragedy. As her life crashes down around her, Anna must then discover where one must go
when there is no going back...

How to Be a Good Wife meets The Bride Stripped Bare.
The first novel from critically acclaimed poet Jill Alexander Essbaum
"With an elegance, precision, and surehandedness that recalls Marguerite Duras's The Lover and Anita Brookner's Hotel du Lac,
Jill Alexander Essbaum gives us this exquisite tale of an expatriate American wife living in Switzerland and her sexual and psychic
unraveling. Hausfrau stuns with its confidence and severe beauty, its cascading insights into the uses of erotic life and the nature of
secrets, the urgency of compulsion and the difficulty of freedom. This is a rare and remarkable debut." Janet Fitch, New York Times
bestselling author of White Oleander
"I was mesmerized by this book. Hausfrau creates a complete, engrossing, and particular world where nothing is as easy as it
should be, according to the hopeful stories we tell ourselves. It's a corrective novel, taking character, destiny, and our choices as
seriously as a novelist can."-Sheila Heti, author of How Should a Person Be?
Author Biography

well as its sister anthology, The Best American Erotic Poems: From 1800 to the Present. A winner of the Bakeless Poetry Prize and

1920. After his return from the battlefields in France, Walter Langdon and his wife Rosanna begin their life together on a remote farm in
Iowa. As time passes, their little family will grow: from Frank, the handsome, willful first-born, to Joe, whose love of animals and the
land sustains him; from Lillian, beloved by her mother, to Henry who craves only the world of his books; and Claire, the surprise baby,
who earns a special place in her father's heart. As Walter and Rosanna struggle to keep their family through good years and hard years to years more desperate than they ever could have imagined, the world around their little farm will turn, and life for their children will be
unrecognizable from what came before. Some will fall in love, some will have families of their own, some will go to war and some will not
survive. All will mark history in their own way. Tender, compelling and moving from the 1920s to the 1950s, told in multiple voices as
rich as the Iowan soil, Some Luck is an astonishing feat of storytelling by a prize-winning author writing at the height of her powers.

1870s Sicily. Much to the displeasure of Vigàta's stubborn populace, the town has just been unified under the Kingdom of Italy. They're
now in the hands of a new government they don't understand, and they definitely don't like. Eugenio Bortuzzi has been named Prefect
for Vigàta, a regional representative from the Italian government to oversee the town. But the rowdy and unruly Sicilians don't care
much for this rather pompous mainlander nor the mediocre opera he's hell-bent on producing in their new municipal theater. The Brewer
of Preston, it's called, and the Vigàtese are revving up to wreak havoc on the performance's opening night . . .

A high-level Russian hacker, known only as Cloud, is believed to be behind a series of major terror operations, and the mission is to
capture and render Cloud harmless. At the same time, a back-up team is sent after the only known associate of Cloud, a ballerina
believed to be his girlfriend. Unwilling to sit out the mission as ordered, Dewey defies his superiors, and goes rogue, surreptitiously
following and tracking the two teams. What should be a pair of simple snatch and grab operations, goes horribly wrong-both teams are
ambushed and wiped out. Only through the unexpected intervention of Dewey is the back-up operation.
On the run, with no back-up, Cloud's girlfriend reveals a shocking secret-a plot so audacious and deadly that their masterminds behind it
would risk anything and kill anybody to prevent its exposure. It's a plot that, in less than three days, will completely remake the world's
political landscape and put at risk every single person in the Western world. With only three days left, Dewey Andreas must unravel and
stop this plot or see everything destroyed. A plot that goes live on July 4th-Independence Day.

Bennett gets a desperate call from an old friend to say that her husband, retired colleague Mark Leech, has gone missing. Blood spatters
found in the home suggest that she doesn't have long to find him.
When Jane is sent to a site in Elmstead Woods she stumbles upon a sinister murder scene. A tomb has been created, and the body she
finds is not Mark's - as she dreaded and suspected - but that of missing university student, Maggie Hungerford. Her killer recorded her
last moments, even providing an air supply which was only cut off when the game lost its thrill.
Two men admit to having had a sexual relationship with Maggie. Both deny murder. Someone is lying. And Mark is still missing. When
another tomb is discovered, an anonymous tip and mounting evidence suggest a disturbing link which threatens to derail both cases and
let a murderer walk free.
Lockyer is shocked into supporting Bennett in a case which becomes ever more ominous and dangerous as the investigation deepens.
They know that their hunt is for a killer with a mind so twisted that he, or she, is likely to stop at nothing.

Caeli-Amur: an ancient city harbouring hidden mysteries, ruled by three warring Houses. Once, the gods used magic - or thaumaturgy to create reality. Now, under the oppression of the controlling classes, that magic seems like a dream.
But things are changing in Caeli-Amur. Ancient minotaurs arrive for the traditional Festival of the Sun and New-Men bring wondrous
technology from their homeland. Hideously disfigured Wastelanders stream into the city and strikes break out in the factory district.

Three very different people may hold the key to the city's survival but only if they can put aside their own personal vendettas.
The philosopher-assassin Kata has debts that need settling and will do anything to ensure they're met - but can she put a price on the
ultimate betrayal? Meanwhile the ambitious bureaucrat Boris Autec rises through the ranks, turning his back on everything he once
believed, and soon his private life turns to ashes. Elsewhere, the idealistic seditionist Maximilian resolves to overturn the tyranny
dominating the city, and hatches a mad plot to unlock the secrets of the Great Library of Caeli Enas, drowned in the fabled city at the
bottom of the sea.
In a novel of startling originality and riveting suspense, these three individuals risk everything for a future they can only create by
throwing off the shackles of tradition and superstition. As their destinies collide, the destruction will either transform the ancient city . . .
or ruin it.

The victim, Harald Olesen, was a legendary hero of the Resistance during the Nazi occupation and at first it is difficult to imagine who
could have wanted him dead. But as Detective Inspector Kolbjørn Kristiansen (known as K2) begins to investigate, it seems clear that
the murderer could only be one of Olesen's fellow tenants in the building.
Soon, with the help of Patricia - a brilliant young woman confined to a wheelchair following a terrible accident - K2 will begin to untangle
the web of lies surrounding Olesen's neighbours; each of whom, it seems, had their own reasons for wanting Olesen dead. Their
interviews, together with new and perplexing clues, will lead K2 and Patricia to dark events that took place during the Second World
War . . .
This gripping, evocative and ingenious mystery - the first in a series featuring K2 and Patricia - pays homage to the great Agatha Christie
and will plunge readers into Norwegian history, and into a world of deceit and betrayal, revenge and the very darkest murder.

After years alone in a cell, an aging prisoner is released without explanation, expelled into a great city now utterly unfamiliar to him.
Broken by years of brutality at the hands of the prison guards, he scrounges for scraps, sleeping wild, until a museum curator rescues
him from an assault. The museum has just opened its most controversial exhibit: a perfect replica of the marshes, an expansive
wilderness still wracked by conflict. There the man had spent years as a doctor among the hated and feared marshmen, who have been
colonized but never conquered. Then Marshlands reveals one of its many surprises: It is written in reverse. The novel leaps
backward once, twice, returning to the marshes and unraveling time to reveal the doctor's ambiguous relationship to the austerely
beautiful land and its people. As the pieces of his past come together, a great crime and its consequences begin to take shape. The true
nature of the crime and who committed it will be saved for the breathtaking ending - or, rather, for the beginning. In the tradition of
Wilfred Thesiger's The Marsh Arabs and J. M. Coetzee's Waiting for the Barbarians, Marshlands explores a culture virtually snuffed
out under Saddam Hussein, and how we cement our identities by pointing at someone to call "other." Elegant, brief, and searing,
Matthew Olshan's Marshlands shivers with the life of a fragile, lost world.

But Stone's freedom has come at a steep price; the assassinations he carried out have prompted the highest levels of the United States
Government to unleash a massive manhunt. Joe Knox is leading the charge, but his superiors aren't telling him everything there is to
know about his quarry-and their hidden agendas are just as dangerous as the killer he's trying to catch.
Meanwhile, with their friend and unofficial leader in hiding, the members of the Camel Club must fend for themselves, even as they try to
protect him. As Knox closes in, Stone's flight from the demons of his past will take him far from Washington, D.C., to the coal-mining
town of Devine, Virginia-and headlong into a confrontation every bit as lethal as the one he is trying to escape.

David Gillespie's five health books, including the Sweet Poison books, have together sold 200,000 copies through Bookscan.
In the Australian media, David is regarded as one of the most reliable, authentic voices on weight and wellness issues; he has
appeared on every major current affairs show, speaks regularly on commercial and ABC radio around the country; and has been
featured in all the major newspapers, for which he is also a regular op ed contributor. He also has a large social media following.
David has a compelling story. He lost 40 kg by following his own advice, and, what's more, has kept the weight off; this is
remarkable when you consider that only 4% of the population maintains weightloss over a two-year period.
David is one of the very few health writers of recent times to base ALL of his content on evidence-based scientific research.
David cuts through the conflicting messages about so-called health food debunking paleo, low-carb, low-GI, protein shakes and the

This encounter prompted Jon to explore the phenomenon of public shaming and what he discovered astonished him. As he meets famous
shamers and shamees, Jon learns just how quickly public ridicule, often delivered from anonymous or distant sources, can devastate its
victim. After our collective fury has raged with the force of a hurricane, we forget about it and move on, and it doesn't cross our minds to
wonder what we've done. How big a transgression really justifies someone losing their job? What about the people who become global
targets for doing nothing more than making a bad joke on Twitter, do they deserve to have their lives ruined? How is this renaissance of
shaming changing the world and what is the true reason behind it?
Simultaneously powerful and hilarious in the way only Jon Ronson can be, So You've Been Publicly Shamed is a deeply honest book
about modern life, full of eye-opening truths about the escalating war on human flaws - and our very scary part in it.

Jo Anne Normile's story of perseverance and passion - how one woman's love for a racehorse led to her redemption.
Description
Jo Anne Normile was not supposed to keep the foal, an exuberant Thoroughbred with only a few white hairs on his reddish-brown
forehead. But she fell in love with the young horse, who had literally been born into her arms. The breeder finally said she could keep the
colt, whom she nicknamed 'Baby' - but only if she raced him.

It was difficult to take Baby away from the safety of his pasture, but Normile had made a promise. Besides, horse racing had always
come across as a glamorous blend of mint juleps and celebrity, of equine grace and speed. It was a vision she found appealing.
And she fell hard for it, this 'Sport of Kings'. She experienced a thrill every time Baby sprinted around the track, edging out other horses.
But the magic that enchants is a veneer. For every Seabiscuit, there are tens of thousands of racehorses whose lives end in pain and
despair because of the indifference and corruption that run rampant through the world of horse racing.
Normile knew none of this. Not until an accident on a poorly maintained track. That's when everything changed. That's when Normile
founded the most successful horse rescue in the country, an organisation that would go on to save more horses than anyone else ever
had.
Saving Baby is Jo Anne Normile's story of perseverance and passion. A heartbreaking and ultimately life-affirming book, it testifies to
the transcending power of hope, and the unshakable bonds of love.

Archaeologist, spy, Arabist, linguist, author, poet, photographer, mountaineer and nation builder, Gertrude Bell was born in 1868 into a
world of privilege and plenty, but she turned her back on all that for her passion for the Arab peoples, becoming the architect of the
independent kingdom of Iraq and seeing its first king Faisal safely onto the throne in 1921. Queen of the Desert is her story, vividly
told and impeccably researched, drawing on Gertrude's own writings, both published and unpublished. Previously published as Daughter
of the Desert, this is a compelling portrait of a woman who transcended the restrictions of her class and age and in so doing created a
remarkable and enduring legacy.

The youngest of the five sons of Henry II and Eleanor of Aquitaine, the empire builders of the Angevin dynasty, John had small hope of
securing any significant inheritance. Then, in 1199, on the death of his older brother Richard, John took possession of the vast Angevin
lands in England and on the continent. But by his death in 1216, he had lost almost all that he inherited, and had come perilously close
to losing his English kingdom, too.
Drawing on thousands of contemporary sources, Stephen Church tells John's story - from boyhood and the succession crises of his early
adulthood, to accession, rebellion and civil war. In doing so, he reveals exactly why John's reign went so disastrously wrong and how
John's failure led to the great cornerstone of Britain's constitution: Magna Carta. Vivid and authoritative, this is history at its visceral
best.

Finding Zero
Amir D Aczel
Keynote
The story of how we got our numbers--told through one mathematician's journey to find zero.
Description
The story of how we got our numbers - told through one mathematician's journey to find zero. The invention of numerals is perhaps the
greatest abstraction the human mind has ever created. Virtually everything in our lives is digital, numerical, or quantified. The story of
how and where we got these numerals, which we so depend on, has for thousands of years been shrouded in mystery. Finding Zero is
an adventure filled saga of Amir Aczel's lifelong obsession: to find the original sources of our numerals. Aczel has doggedly crisscrossed
the ancient world, scouring dusty, moldy texts, cross examining so-called scholars who offered wildly differing sets of facts, and
ultimately penetrating deep into a Cambodian jungle to find a definitive proof. Here, he takes the reader along for the ride.

The history begins with the early Babylonian cuneiform numbers, followed by the later Greek and Roman letter numerals. Then Aczel
asks the key question: where do the numbers we use today, the so-called Hindu-Arabic numerals, come from? It is this search that leads
him to explore uncharted territory, to go on a grand quest into India, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, and ultimately into the wilds of Cambodia.
There he is blown away to find the earliest zero - the keystone of our entire system of numbers - on a crumbling, vine-covered wall of a
seventh-century temple adorned with eaten-away erotic sculptures.

In The Improbability Principle, the renowned statistician David J. Hand unveils his groundbreaking argument that extraordinarily rare
events are in fact commonplace. Weaving together fascinating new ways to think about chance, Hand highlights his "law of near enough,
" the "look elsewhere effect," and more, doing for probability what Newton's laws of motion did for mechanics. Through humorous and
engaging tales of two-time lottery winners, gambling gone wrong, and bizarre coincidences that we can't quite fathom, Hand argues that
extremely unlikely events must happen, and no mystical or supernatural explanation is necessary to understand why. Hand's
investigation, grounded in statistics and brought to life with fascinating anecdotes, finally explains "unexplainable" events such as
unexpectedly bumping into a friend in a foreign country and coming across an unfamiliar word twice in one day. Along the way, we learn
what the Bible and Shakespeare have in common, just how to win the lottery, why financial crashes are par for the course, and why
lightning does strike the same place (and the same person) more than once. As Hand makes clear, we can rest assured that we'll
experience a "miracle" roughly once per month. An irresistible adventure into the laws behind chance moments, The Improbability
Principle transforms how we think about business decisions, everyday encounters, serendipity, and luck.

From Galileo and Newton to Thomas Hobbes and Martin Luther King, Jr., thinkers throughout history have consciously employed
scientific techniques to better understand the non-physical world. The Age of Reason and the Enlightenment led theorists to apply
scientific reasoning to the non-scientific disciplines of politics, economics, and moral philosophy. Instead of relying on the woodcuts of
dissected bodies in old medical texts, physicians opened bodies themselves to see what was there; instead of divining truth through the
authority of an ancient holy book or philosophical treatise, people began to explore the book of nature for themselves through travel and
exploration; instead of the supernatural belief in the divine right of kings, people employed a natural belief in the right of democracy.

Marketing and PR expert Peter Shankman has been working with the biggest companies in the world to create what he calls "Zombie
Loyalists," fervent fans that help companies massively increase their customer base, brand awareness, and most importantly, revenue.
After all, why should you have to tell the world how amazing you are if you can have your existing customers do it for you? Imagine an
army of customers who will do your PR, marketing and advertising, without being asked, each and every time they give you their money.
These are Zombie Loyalists. They are ready to buy what you sell, respond to your email offers and demand that their friends to do the
same.
So how do you get this rabid following? There's been a lot of lip service given to customer loyalty over the past few years, but most
companies still don't realize that a points program or a slew of untargeted emails simply won't do it. With so many products and
platforms to choose from, amazing customer service is the only differentiator that will truly put you ahead of your competition. Looking
at exceptional companies like the Ritz Carlton, Amazon, and Starwood Hotels, as well as smaller businesses to turn their customers into
Zombie Loyalists, he shows how you can create your own customer army.

Unlike most investors, who live in fear of failure, Scott Fearon actively seeks it out. He has earned millions of dollars over the past thirty
years shorting the stocks of businesses he believed were on their way to bankruptcy. In Dead Companies Walking, Fearon describes
his foolproof formula for spotting these doomed businesses, and how they can be - extremely profitable investments. In his experience,
corporate managers routinely commit six common mistakes that can derail even the most promising companies: they learn from only the
recent past; they rely too heavily on a formula for success; they misunderstand their target customers; they fall victim to the magical
storytelling of a mania; they fail to adapt to tectonic shifts in their industry; and they are physically or emotionally removed from their
companies' operations.
Fearon has personally interviewed thousands of executives who were headed, unknowingly, for bankruptcy - from the Texas oil barons of
the 80s to the tech wunderkinds of the late 90s to the flush real estate developers of the mid-2000s. Here, he explores recent examples
like JC Penney, Herbalife and Blockbuster Entertainment to help investors better predict the next booms and busts - and come out on
top.

Author Biography
Scott Fearon worked as a stock analyst and mutual fund manager before launching his own hedge fund, Crown Capital Management, in
1991. Since its inception, the fund has averaged an 11.4 percent annual return after all fees - 50 percent greater than the benchmark
S&P 500 index's total return over the same time period, and well above the hedge fund industry average. He has written for Seeking
Alpha and blogs at scottfearon.com. He lives in Marin County, California.

Christopher and His Kind
Christopher Isherwood
Keynote
An indispensable memoir by one of the most prominent writers of his generation.
Description
Originally published in 1976, Christopher and His Kind covers the most memorable ten years in the writer's life - from 1928, when
Christopher Isherwood left England to spend a week in Berlin and decided to stay there indefinitely, to 1939, when he arrived in America.
His friends and colleagues during this time included W. H. Auden, Stephen Spender, and E. M. Forster, as well as colorful figures he met
in Germany and later fictionalized in his two Berlin novels - and who appeared again, fictionalized to an even greater degree, in I Am a
Camera and Cabaret. What most impressed the first readers of this memoir, however, was the candor with which he describes his life
in gay Berlin of the 1930s and his struggles to save his companion, a German man named Heinz, from the Nazis. An engrossing and
dramatic story and a fascinating glimpse into a little-known world, Christopher and His Kind remains one of Isherwood's greatest
achievements.

The Tastemaker explores the many lives of Carl Van Vechten, the most influential cultural impresario of the early twentieth century: a
patron and dealmaker of the Harlem Renaissance, a photographer who captured the era's icons, and a novelist who created some of the
Jazz Age's most salacious stories. A close confidant of Langston Hughes, Gertrude Stein, and F. Scott Fitzgerald, Van Vechten frolicked in
the 1920s Manhattan demimonde, finding himself in Harlem jazz clubs, Hell's Kitchen speakeasies, and the Greenwich Village
underground gay scene. New York City was a hotbed of vice as well as creativity, and Van Vechten was at the center of it all. Edward
White's biography - the first comprehensive biography of Carl Van Vechten in nearly half a century - depicts a controversial figure who
defined an age. Embodying many of the contradictions of modern America, Van Vechten was a devoted husband with a coterie of boys
by his side, a supporter of difficult art who also loved lowbrow entertainment, and a promoter of the Harlem Renaissance whose
bestselling novel infuriated many of the same African American artists he championed. The Tastemaker is a remarkable portrait of a
man whose brave journeys across boundaries of race, sexuality, and taste helped make America fully modern.
Author Biography
Edward White studied European and American history at Mansfield College, Oxford, and Goldsmiths College, London. Since 2005 he has
worked in the British television industry, including two years at the BBC, devising programs in its art and history department. He is a
contributor to The Times Literary Supplement. The Tastemaker is his first book. White lives in London, England.

Max Hastings

The stunning bestseller from one of Britain's most highly regarded military historians.
Description
One of the greatest military feats during the Second World War was the transformation of the German force's activities in the weeks
following the battles in Holland and the German border, where the Allies had finally inflicted the greatest catastrophes of modern war on
them.
Somehow the Germans found the strength to halt the Allied advance in its tracks and to prolong the war to 1945. This book is the epic
story of those last eight months of the war in northern Europe.

While other scientists beaver away on obvious problems, Richard Wiseman has been busy uncovering the secret ingredients of charisma,
exploring how our personalities are shaped by when we are born and examining why people usually miss the obvious signs of their
partner's infidelity. Using scientific methods to investigate offbeat topics that interest the general public as well as the scientific
community, Quirkology brings a new understanding to the backwaters of the human mind and takes us to places where mainstream
scientists fear to tread. Comparable to Freakonomics, but British, far more populist, and a lot funnier.
Findings include:
How does your surname influence your life?
What does the way you walk reveal about your personality?
Why should women have men write their personal ads?

Alice's second adventure takes her through the looking-glass to a place even curiouser than Wonderland. She finds herself caught up in
the great looking-glass chess game and sets off to become a queen. It isn't as easy as she expects: at every step she is hindered by
nonsense characters who crop up and insist on reciting poems. Some of these poems, such as 'The Walrus and The Carpenter' and
'Jabberwocky', are as famous as the Alice stories themselves.

The Nursery Alice, originally published by Macmillan & Co. in 1890, was the very first colour edition of Alice. It was intended, wrote
Carroll, "to be read by Children aged from Nought to Five. To be read? Nay, not so! Say rather to be thumbed, to be cooed over, to be
dogs'-eared, to be rumpled, to be kissed..."
With this new, younger readership in mind, Carroll rewrote Alice, simplifying and abridging the original text, while Tenniel redrew,
enlarged and coloured twenty of his iconic illustrations. The resulting book is a delightfully engaging experience, readers prompted to
interact not only with the story but also with the images and even the physical book itself, in a way that is thoroughly modern.
Gloriously reproduced for the anniversary year, the present edition retains the every word of the original and restores the exquisite
delicacy of Tenniel's artwork - lost in reproductions across the decades - along with the delightful cover artwork by Emily Gertrude
Thomson. This gem of a book is the perfect introduction to Alice, a delight for readers of every age.

Hedi Peacock's to-do list is fraught with danger and unattainable goals. Luckily, this half-fae isn't fazed by the impossible - or prefers to
ignore it.
Hedi's found her way from our world to the fae lands, to save her brother's soul. But can she remove the sorcerer that's possessed Lexi's
body? And saving her brother is meaningless unless she destroys the mage's spellbook, a volume so dark that it threatens human and
fae realms. Hedi and her Alpha werewolf, Trowbridge, have a straightforward plan. However, planning has never quite worked for Hedi.
Especially when Trowbridge risks meeting his feral former pack - now out for blood.
Then, as Hedi nears her destination, she witnesses a scene of inexpressible grief. It forces her to re-evaluate loyalty and loss - but if
Hedi changes her quest, can she still reach her dreams?

Sixteen-year-old Gwyneth discovers her family's time-travel gene when she mysteriously lands in the last century. This international
bestseller is the first in a YA trilogy. Gwyneth Shepherd's sophisticated, beautiful cousin Charlotte has been prepared her entire life for
traveling through time. But unexpectedly, it is Gwyneth who in the middle of class takes a sudden spin to a different era! Gwyneth must
now unearth the mystery of why her mother would lie about her birth date to ward off suspicion about her ability, brush up on her
history, and work with Gideon-the time traveler from a similarly gifted family that passes the gene through its male line, and whose
presence becomes, in time, less insufferable and more essential. Together, Gwyneth and Gideon journey through time to discover who,
in the 18th century and in contemporary London, they can trust. Kerstin Gier's Ruby Red is young adult novel full of fantasy and
romance.

Gwen's life has been a rollercoaster since she discovered she was the Ruby, the final member of the secret time-traveling Circle of
Twelve. In between searching through history for the other time-travelers and asking for a bit of their blood (gross!), she's been trying
to figure out what all the mysteries and prophecies surrounding the Circle really mean. At least Gwen has plenty of help. Her best friend
Lesley follows every lead diligently on the Internet. James the ghost teaches Gwen how to fit in at an eighteenth century party. And
Xemerius, the gargoyle demon who has been following Gwen since he caught her kissing Gideon in a church, offers advice on everything.
Oh, yes. And of course there is Gideon, the Diamond. One minute he's very warm indeed; the next he's freezing cold. Gwen's not sure
what's going on there, but she's pretty much destined to find out. Sapphire Blue is the second book in the Ruby Red Trilogy from
Kerstin Gier.

Breaking up is hard to do. It's even harder when your boyfriend surprises you with front row tickets to your favorite band the moment
you're about to do the dirty deed. Which is why Katie decides maybe she doesn't need to break up after all. At least, not today.
But when Katie's best friend, Charlie Joe Jackson, starts texting her about the breakup - life turns upside down. Because Katie just made
a big mistake. She sent the wrong text to the wrong person! Life can't get any worse. And when Katie's idol, Plain Jane, gets wind of her
problem she makes her a deal: Get ten friends to give up their phones for one week and everyone gets backstage passes to her show
and brought on stage. Katie's one tough cookie, but she can hardly convince people to give up their phones for one hour let alone a
whole week!

Ember Miller and Chase Jennings are ready to stop running. After weeks spent in hiding as two of the Bureau of Reformation's most
wanted criminals, they have finally arrived at the safe house, where they hope to live a safe and quiet existence. And all that's left is a
smoking ruin. Devastated by the demolition of their last hope, Ember and Chase follow tracks leading away from the wreckage - the only
sign that there may have been survivors. With their high profile, they know they can't stay out in the open for long. They take shelter in
the wilderness and amidst the ruins of abandoned cities as they follow the tracks down the coast, eventually finding refugees from the
destroyed safe house. Among them is someone from Chase's past - someone he never thought he'd see again. Banding together, they
search for a place to hide, aiming for a settlement a few of them have heard about... a settlement that is rumored to house the nebulous
organization known as Three. The very group that has provided Ember with a tiny ray of hope ever since she was first forced on the run.

"My father, who was a head-man of the Butchulla, told us many things in the evenings before we went to sleep. He would tell us the
stories or legends of our people, some of which are similar to the fairy tales you heard when you were young. I learned from my father
many things." - Moonie Jarl.
