"1944: As World War II rages on, the threat has come to the home front. In a remote corner of Idaho, Meiko Briggs and her daughter, Aiko, are desperate to return home. Following Meiko's husband's enlistment as an air force pilot in the Pacific months prior, Meiko and Aiko were taken from their home in Seattle and sent to one of the internment camps in the Midwest. It didn't matter that Aiko was American-born: They were Japanese, and therefore considered a threat by the American government. Mother and daughter attempt to hold on to elements of their old life in the camp when a mysterious disease begins to spread among those interned. What starts as a minor cold quickly becomes spontaneous fits of violence and aggression, even death. And when a disconcerting team of doctors arrive, nearly more threatening than the illness itself, Meiko and her daughter team up with a newspaper reporter and widowed missionary to investigate, and it becomes clear to them that something more sinister is afoot, a demon from the stories of Meiko's childhood, hell-bent on infiltrating their already strange world. Inspired by the Japanese yokai and the jorogumo spider demon, The Fervor explores the horrors of the supernatural beyond just the threat of the occul" First edition, hardcover, New in dust jacket,

Tal Goretsky (illustrator). New York: G.P. Putnam's Sons:, 2001. First edition, hardcover, New in dust jacket, 340 pp. Cover artwork by: Tal Goretsky "With their long necks and matching buns and pink tights, Dara and Marie Durant have been dancers since they can remember. Growing up, they were homeschooled and trained by their glamorous mother, founder of the Durant School of Dance. After their parents' death in a tragic accident nearly a dozen years ago, the sisters began running the school together, along with Charlie, Dara's husband and once their mother's prized student. Marie, warm and soft, teaches the younger students; Dara, with her precision, trains the older ones; and Charlie, sidelined from dancing after years of injuries, rules over the back office. Circling around one another, the three have perfected a dance, six days a week, that keeps the studio thriving. But when a suspicious accident occurs, just at the onset of the school's annual performance of The Nutcracker - a season of competition, anxiety, and exhilaration - an interloper arrives and threatens the sisters' delicate balance."

"From the New York Times bestselling author of The 6:20 Man comes a new psychological thriller in which two women - one a former detective and the other a dangerous con artist - go head-to-head in an electrifying game of cat and mouse. Mickey Gibson, single mother and former detective, leads a hectic liife similar to that of many moms: juggling the demands of her two small children with the tasks of her job working remotely for ProEye, a global investigation company that hunts down wealthy tax and credit cheats. When Mickey gets a call from a colleague named Arlene Robinson, she thinks nothing of Arlene's unusual request that she inventory the vacant home of an arms dealer, who cheated ProEye's clients and fled. That is, until she arrives at the mansion to discover a dead body in a secret room - and that nothing is as it seems. Not only does the arms dealer not exist, but the murder victim turns out to be Harry Langhorne, a man with mob ties who used to be in Witness Protection. What's more, no one named Arlene Robinson works at ProEye. In the blink of an eye, Mickey has become a prime suspect in a murder investigation - and now her job is also on the line until she can prove that she was set up. Before long, Mickey is locked in a battle of wits with a brilliant woman with no name, a hidden past, and unknown motives - whose end game is as mysterious as it is deadly." - from the inner front jacket flap.

"International bestselling author Ken Follett has enthralled millions of readers with The Pillars of the Earth and World Without End, two stories of the Middle Ages set in the fictional city of Kingtsbridge. The saga now continues with Follett's magnificent new epic, A Column of Fire. In 1558, the ancient stones of Kingsbridge Cathedral look down on a city torn apart by religious conflict. As power in England shifts precariously between Catholics and Protestants, royalty and commoners clash, testing friendship, loyalty, and love. Ned Willard wants nothing more than to marry Margery Fitzgerald. But when the lovers find themselves on opposing sides of the religious conflict dividing the country, Ned goes to work for Princess Elizabeth. When she becomes queen, all Europe turns against England. The shrewd, determined young monarch sets up the country's first secret service to give her early warning of assassination plots, rebellions, and invasion plans. Over a turbulent half century, the love between Ned and Margery seems doomed as extremism sparks violence from Edinburgh to Geneva. Elizabeth clings to her throne and her principles, protected by a small, dedicated group of rresourceful spies and courageous secret agents. The real enemies, then as now, are not the rival religions. The true battle pitches those who believe in tolerance and compromise against the tyrants who would impose their ideas on everyone else - no matter what the cost. Set during one of the most turbulent and revolutioinary times in history, A Column of Fire is one of Follett's most exciting and ambitious works yet. It will delight longtime fans of the Kingsbridge series and is the perfect introduction for readers new to Ken Follett." - from the inner front jacker flap.

In telling the tale of Cuban sugar magnate Julio Lobo - sophisticated, complex, obsessive, a collector of Napoleon memorabilia and Hollywood starlets, as well as a ruthless businessman - Mr. Rathbone illuminates the extraordinary history of Cuba itself, and the many worlds that evaporated with the onset of Castro's revolution." - Cristina Garcia, author. ". a remarkable book.a deeply personal family memoir that clears a pathway to a part of Cuba's wounded soul. Beautifully written; a stunning achievement." - Jon Lee Anderson, author of Che Guevara. "At long last: a book that does not glorify the Cuba of the 1950s or romanticize the terrible and ineffective government that tried to erase it from memory." - Mirta Ojito, author. "This magnificntly written book is much more than an account of the life of a singular personage: it is a fascinating portrait of an era now unknown even to the Cubans themselves. Whoever wishes to know what the island was like before the revolution must read this work." - Carlos Albrto Montaner, author. "The son of a Cuban exile recounts the remarkable and contradictory life of famed sugar baron Julio Lobo, the richest man in pre-revolutionary Cuba. Fifty years after the Cuban revolution, the legendary wealth of sugar magnate Julio Lobo remains emblematic of a certain way of life that came to an abrupt end when Fidel Castro marched into Havana. Known in his day as the King of Sugar, Lobo was for decades the most powerful force in the world sugar market, controlling vast swaths of the island's sugar interests. Born in 1898, the year of Cuba's independence, he had an extraordinary life that mirrored, in almost lurid Technicolor, the many rises and final fall of the troubled Cuban Republic. The details of Lobo's life are fit for Hollywood. He twice cornered the world sugar market, and had the largest collection of Napoleonica outside of France, including the emperor's back teeth and death mask. He once faced a firing squad only to be pardoned at the last moment, and later survived a gangland shooting. He courted movie stars such as Bette Davis and Joan Fontaine, and supposedly filled the swimming pool at one of his country estates with perfume when Esther Williams came to visit. As Rathbone observes, such are the legends of which revolutions are made, and later justified. But Lobo was also a progressive and a philanthropist, and his genius was so widely acknowledged that Che Guevara personally offered him the position of Minister of Sugar in the Communist regime. When Lobo declined - knowing that their worldviews could never be compatible - his properties were nationalized, most of his fortune vanished overnight, and he fled the island, never to return. Financial Times journalist John Paul Rathbone has been fascinated by this intoxicating, whirligig, and contradictory pre-revolutionary period his entire life. Rathbone's mother was a friend of Lobo's daughters and also a member of Havana's storied haute bourgeoisie. Woven into Lobo's tale is her family's experience of republic, revolution, and exile, as well as the author's struggle to come to grips with Cuba's - and his family's - turbulent history. Prodigiously researched and imaginatively written, The Sugar King of Havana is a captivating portrait not only of the glittering end of an era but also of a more hopeful Cuban past, one that might even provide a window into the island's future." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.

Includes List of Other Books by Ken Follett; Preliminary Page Author Note; Preliminary Page Chinese Proverb; Prologue and Acknowledgments. "The new must-read epic from master storyteller Ken Follett: more than a thriller, it's an action-packed, globe-spanning drama set in the present day. 'Every catastrophe begins with a little problem that doesn't get fixed.' So says Pauline Green, president of the United States, in Ken Follett's nerve-racking drama of international tension. A shrinking oasis in the Sahara Desert; a stolen US Army drone; an uninhabited Japanese island; and one country's secret stash of deadly chemical poisons: all these paly roles in a relentlessly escalating crisis. Struggling to prevent the outbreak of world war are a young woman intelligence officer; a spy working undercover with jihadists; a brilliant Chinese spymaster; and Pauline herself, beleaguered by a populist rival for the next presidential election. Never is an extraordinary novel, full of heroines and villains, false prophets and elite warriors, jaded politicians and opportunistic revolutionaries. It brims with cautionary wisdom for our times and delivers a visceral, heart-pounding read that transports readers to the brink of the unimaginable." - from the inner front jacket flap. "A compelling story, and only too realistic." - Lawrence H. Summers, former U.S. Secretary of the Treasury.

Includes List of Other Book(s) by Anjelica Huston; Author Dedication and Acknowledgments. Illustrated with two sections of both black-and-white and color photographic plates. A small remainder mark at the upper page edge (see photographs). "An elegant, funny, and frequently haunting reminiscence of the first two decades of her life . a classic." - Graydon Carter, Vanity Fair. "Gorgeously written." - Leigh Haber, O, The Oprah Magazine. "[An] elegy for a vanished world . A seductive social history of the 1960s." - Sheila Weller, The New York Times Book Review. "[Huston's] lovely, novelistic writing carries the book."- Melissa Maerz, Entertainment Weekly. "Anjelica Huston was twenty-nine years old and trying to create a place for herself as an actress in Hollywood when the director Tony Richardson said to her: "Poor little you. So much talent and so little to show for it. You're never going to do anything with your life." Tony had a singsong voice, writes Anjelica, like one of his own parrots, but there was no mistaking the edge. "Perhaps you're right," she answered. Inside she was thinking: Watch me. In A Story Lately Told, Anjelica Huston described her enchanted childhood in Ireland and her glamorous but troubled late teens in London. That memoir of her early years ended when Anjelica stepped into Hollywood. In Watch Me, Huston tells the story of falling in love with Jack Nicholson and her adventurous, turbulent, high profile, spirited seventeen-year relationship with him and his intoxicating circle of friends. She writes about learning the art and craft of acting: her Academy Award-winning portrayal of Maerose Prizzi in Prizzi's Honor; her roles as Morticia Addams in the Addams Family films, Etheline Tenenbaum in The Royal Tenenbaums, and Lilly Dillion in The Grifters; and her collaborations with many of the greatest directors in film history, including Woody Allen, Wes Anderson, Bob Rafelson, Francis Ford Coppola, and Stephen Fears. Huston movingly and beautifully writes about the death of her father, the legendary director John Huston, and her love affair with her husband, sculptor Robert Graham. She is candid, mischievous, warm, passionate, and a superb storyteller." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.

Eagerly awaited by fans around the world, The Book of Life brings the magic and suspense of the All Souls Trilogy to a deeply satisfying conclusion. What did the witches once discover? Why was this secret encoded in a mysterious book called Ashmole 782 and then chased through the centuries by daemons, vampires, and the witches themselves? How can spellbound witch Diana Bishiop and vampire scientist Matthew Clairmont fulfill their love and their mission, on contested ground and with the weight of their very different histories pulling them apart?

At Matthew's ancestral home, Sept-Tours, they reunite with the beloved cast of characters from A Discovery of Witches - with one significant exception.

In the trilogy's final volume, Harkness deepens her themes of power and passion, family and caring, past dedds and their present consequences.
