    Twenty-one years after the publication of his landmark debut collection Yellow, Don Lee returns to the short story form for his sixth book, The Partition.  
     
    The Partition is an updated exploration of Asian American identity, this time with characters who are presumptive model minorities in the arts, academia, and media. Spanning decades, these nine novelistic stories traverse an array of cities, from Tokyo to Boston, Honolulu to El Paso, touching  
    upon transient encounters in local bars, restaurants, and hotels.  
     
    Culminating in a three-story cycle about a Hollywood actor, The Partition incisively examines heartbreak, identity, family, and relationships—the characters searching for answers to universal questions: Where do I belong? How can I find love? What defines an authentic self?

    A horrific thrill ride you won't be able to put down, until the unbelievably shocking ending! Death on the Railway is a supernatural crime thriller with an element of romance. This thriller is set in the highly stressed, fast-paced world we live in today and will appeal to readers who enjoy psychological thrillers. 
    When the parents of 21-year-old Angelo Russo are tragically killed in a car accident, he is left in the care of his older sister, Carina Russo, who seduces him. Both Angelo and Carina fall deeply in love with one another, but Carina fears that her professional modeling career will be in jeopardy should the salacious secrets of her life be exposed. After she has a fight with Angelo, she disappears into the night, never to be seen alive again. 
    Once Angelo gets hired to be a conductor for Morton City Railway, he discovers that his beloved sister has become a murder victim of the city's psycho serial killer, the "Railway Butcher." Angelo is incessantly haunted by his sister's ghost as more of his colleagues and friends become victims of the "butcher." 
    Angelo's crusade to find justice for Carina and his friends quickly turns into one needing to prove his own innocence, when he becomes the prime suspect during the police investigations. When a new love, named Carlita Gomez, also enters his life, Angelo accepts that he needs to let go of his romantic love for Carina in order to find true happiness; but Carina isn't ready to let go, and he must now fight for his life and to protect the woman that he loves. 
    This new version will be more reader-friendly and less offensive. However, since "Death on the Railway" is primarily a horror story, this book is NOT RECOMMENDED FOR THE FAINT OF HEART. This new version still contains graphic horror, gore, violence and mature subject matters. 
    Author, Manuel Rose, injects his many years of railroad experience and knowledge into this novel in order to help make this terrifying tale believable.

    There’s trouble afoot in Regency London’s Jewish community, and no one to stop the crimes—until wealthy-widower-turned-sleuth Mr. Ezra Melamed teams up with an unlikely pair: General Well’ngone and the Earl of Gravel Lane, the leaders of a gang of young Jewish pickpockets. 
    David Salomon, a young violinist and composer, has left New York to find fame and fortune in Regency London. But disaster strikes not long after he arrives. A mysterious rival composer is stealing his compositions and having them performed to great acclaim — and when David tries to protest that he is the music’s true creator, he becomes the laughingstock of the beau monde he had hoped to conquer. 
    With few friends and even fewer resources, the desperate Mr. Salomon turns to Ezra Melamed for help with discovering the identity of his shadowy foe. But the deeper Mr. Melamed looks into the violinist’s story the more jarring notes he finds, making The Doppelganger’s Dance one of the most discomposing mysteries of his career. 
    The Doppelganger’s Dance is the second book in the Jewish Regency Mystery series, a refreshingly different look at Regency England which combines lovably quirky characters with a generous dash of humor.
