Condition: Good. Dear Reader, My new story begins on a terror-filled night when two babies--identical twi n girls of noble birth--are separated. One grows to womanhood as the frail, manipulative ward of the handsome young earl of Harcourt. The other become s an enchanting, street-smart urchin who earns her way as a traveling playe r on the streets of England and France. The two girls' paths might never again have crossed if Harcourt hadn't run into Miranda in the midst of an exuberant performance. The resemblance to h is ward is unmistakable--uncanny, in fact.and an ambitious plot begins to take shape in Harcourt's mind. His ward, Maude, will commit herself to a convent rather than marry the lov e-struck king of France, who will soon be traveling to London to claim her. What if Miranda were to take Maude's place? Harcourt is confident that wit h the right training, the right clothes, and the right attitude, the lithe, carefree Miranda will captivate society--and the king. So begins Harcourt's breathtaking scheme to turn an ugly duckling into a go rgeous swan. But if he succeeds too well, Miranda may become something irre sistible--even to Harcourt. It's a delicious dilemma and a dangerous deception.and the twists and tur ns surprised even me. Warmest wishes, Jane Feather.

Condition: Very Good. Time of Our Lives: A Conversation about America by Tom Brokaw Who we are, where we've been, and where we need to go now, to recapture the American dream Now with a new Foreword by the author "The best presentation of the challenges facing the country--and the possib le solutions--I've ever seen."--P. J. O'Rourke Tom Brokaw, known and beloved for his landmark work in American journalism and for the New York Times bestsellers The Greatest Generation and Boom!, n ow turns his attention to the challenges that face America in the new mille nnium, to offer reflections on how we can restore America's greatness. Rooted in the values, lessons, and verities of generations past and of his South Dakota upbringing, Brokaw weaves together inspiring stories of Americans who are making a difference and personal stories from his own family history, to engage us in a conversation about our country and to share ideas for how we can revitalize the promise of the American Dream. Inviting us to foster a rebirth of family, community, and civic engagement as profound as the one that helped win World War II, built our postwar prosperity, and ushered in the Civil Rights era, Brokaw traces the exciting, unnerving changes in modern life--in values, education, public service, housing, the Internet, and more--that have transformed our society in the decades since the age of thrift in which he was raised. In offering ideas from Americans who are change agents in their communities, Brokaw gives us a nourishing vision of hopefulness in an age of diminished expectations.

Christianna is the only daughter of the Reigning Prince of a European nation that takes its royalty seriously-and her father has ironclad plans for Christianna's life, a burd en that is almost unbearable. Now, after four years at Berkeley, life in her father's palace cannot distr act Christianna from what she sees outside the kingdom-the suffering of chi ldren, the ravages of terrorism and disease. Determined to make a differenc e in the world, she persuades His Royal Highness, her father, to let her vo lunteer for the Red Cross in East Africa. And for Christianna, a journey of discovery, change, and awakening begins.

Condition: Good. John Grisham's first work of nonfiction, an exploration of small town justi ce gone terribly awry, is his most extraordinary legal thriller yet. In the major league draft of 1971, the first player chosen from the State o f Oklahoma was Ron Williamson. When he signed with the Oakland A's, he said goodbye to his hometown of Ada and left to pursue his dreams of big league glory. Six years later he was back, his dreams broken by a bad arm and bad habits drinking, drugs, and women. He began to show signs of mental illness. Unabl e to keep a job, he moved in with his mother and slept twenty hours a day o n her sofa. In 1982, a 21-year-old cocktail waitress in Ada named Debra Sue Carter was raped and murdered, and for five years the police could not solve the crime . For reasons that were never clear, they suspected Ron Williamson and his friend Dennis Fritz. The two were finally arrested in 1987 and charged with capital murder. With no physical evidence, the prosecution's case was buil t on junk science and the testimony of jailhouse snitches and convicts. Den nis Fritz was found guilty and given a life sentence. Ron Williamson was se nt to death row. If you believe that in America you are innocent until proven guilty, this book will shock you. If you believe in the death penalty, this book will disturb you. If you believe the criminal justice system is fair, this book will infuriate you.

Condition: Very Good. Hollywood homicide detective Petra Connor has helped psychologist Alex Dela ware crack tough cases in the past, most recently in Jonathan Kellerman's N ew York Times bestseller A Cold Heart. Now the complex and wryly compassion ate Petra is once again at the center of the action, in a novel of cunning twists and page-turning suspense. Lifeless bodies sprawl in a dance-club parking lot after a brutal L.A. driv e-by. Of the four seemingly random victims, one stands out: a girl with pin k shoes who cannot be identified-and who, days later, remains a Jane Doe. W ith zero leads and no apparent motive, it's another case destined for the c old file-until Petra decides to follow her instincts and descends into a wo rld of traveling grifters and bloodthirsty killers, pursuing a possible eye witness whose life is in mortal danger. Finding her elusive quarry-alive-isn't all Petra has on her plate: departmental politics threatens to sabotage her case, and her personal life isn't doing much better. If all that wasn't enough, Isaac Gomez, a whiz-kid grad student researching homicide statistics at the station house, is convinced he's stumbled upon a bizarre connection between several unsolved murders. The victims had nothing in common, yet each died by the same method, on the same date-a date that's rapidly approaching again. And that leaves Petra with little time to unravel the twisted logic of a cunning predator who's evaded detection for years-and whose terrible hour is once more at hand.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Urgent and timeless, Legacies brings us closer than we have ever been to pe netrating the great conundrum of China m the twentieth century. It could on ly have been written by Bette Bao Lord - born in China, raised in America, author of the bestselling novel Spring Moon, wife of a former American amba ssador to China, resident in Beijing during the "China Spring" of 1989. Lor d's unique web of relationships and her sensitive insight have enabled her to observe Chinese life both high and low, Communist and dissident, intelle ctual and ordinary. Lord interweaves her own story, and that of her clansmen, with the voices of men and women who recall the tumultuous experience of the last fifty years, and the legacy of the Cultural Revolution. In precise, subtle prose, Lord explores the reality of Red Guards and reeducation camps, of friends and families severed by political disgrace, and captures the individual voices of those caught up in them: the seven-year-old girl with a heart full of hate for her father; the journalist whose girlfriend believes the Party newspapers, not him; the imprisoned scholar who hid his writings in his quilt for years; the anti-revolutionary who tells his bitter story in a vein of high farce. All bear heartbreaking witness to the surreal quality of Chinese society today - and to the astonishing resilience, humor, and heroic equanimity of the Chinese spirit.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. A copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. To many of us, the experiences that we grew up taking for granted leave become distant dreams in our adult lives: marriages that last a lifetime; safe neighborhoods to call home; the certainty that our children will have a better life than we did; and most of all, lots of time to spend as we wish, living for the moment. Instead, we find our time and energy spent recovering from the past or protecting ourselves from the future. The result is a desperate, sometimes dangerous, and often unsuccessful, search for meaning in our lives. In Real Moments, Barbara De Angelis defines happiness not as an acquisition, but as a skill-the skill of capturing every moment and living it completely. With insight, wisdom, and vision, she teaches us how to rediscover real moments with our mates and our children, with our work and our play, in sex and intimacy, and real moments with ourselves. It is an examination of our relationship with the process of living itself, offering inspiration as well as practical tools for creating more of one of the most precious moments of all-moments of true meaning in our lives.

The next bull market is here. It's not in stocks. It's not in bonds. It's i n commodities -and some smart investors will be riding that bull to record returns in the next decade. Before Jim Rogers hit the road to write his bestselling books Investment Bi ker and Adventure Capitalist, he was one of the world's most successful inv estors. He cofounded the Quantum Fund and made so much money that he never needed to work again. Yet despite his success, Rogers has never written a b ook of practical investment advice-until now. In Hot Commodities, Rogers offers the lowdown on the most lucrative markets for today and tomorrow. In 1998, gliding under the radar, a bull market in commodities began. Rogers thinks it's going to continue for at least fifte en years-and he's put his money where his mouth is: In 1998, he started his own commodities index fund. It's up 165% since then, with more than $200 m illion invested, and it's the single-best performing index fund in the worl d in any asset class. Less risky than stocks and less sluggish than bonds, commodities are where the money is-and will be in the years ahead. Rogers' s strategies are simple and straightforward. You can start small-a few thou sand dollars will suffice. It's all about putting your money into stuff you understand, the basic materials of everyday life, like coal, sugar, cotton , corn, or crude oil. Once you recognize the cyclical and historical tradin g patterns outlined here, you'll be on your way. In language that is both co.
