Untethered

Andrea Busfield

Sinopse

Cara, Lillian and Emilia are three women of a certain age who have only one thing in common – a love of animals. Sadly, on the Mediter- ranean island they call home, they witness appalling animal cruelty and after learning of a puppy’s death in a cardboard crushing machine, the three friends decide to do something about it. They then find themselves responsible for one of the most intriguing, and in some quarters celebrated, crime sprees in modern Cypriot history.
 
Untethered is more than a tale about animal rescue, it’s a story of love, loss and the incredible power of female friendship.

The Vetilante - Memoirs of a...

Alastair England

Vets deal with euthanasia all of the time. Mostly old animals or those with an incurable disease. But sometimes for behavioural reasons. The animals have no say it is up to the owner and the vet. Animal abuse and cruelty are endemic in the world and apart from poorly funded charities there is very little policing. But imagine if there was someone avenging abused animals. A veterinary vigilante. Someone on the animal’s side, euthanizing the cruel human on the animal’s behalf.
 
All of the places in this book are real. There are very few names and no dates, and, after all, people disappear all the time. Is this a work of fiction, or the true memories of a veterinary psychopath: The Vetilante?

Phantom Orbit - A Thriller

David Ignatius

A subtle and masterful novel from a prescient voice on the cutting edge of spy literature. 
 
David Ignatius is known for his uncanny ability, in novel after novel, to predict the next great national security headline. In Phantom Orbit, he presents a story both searing and topical, with stakes as far-reaching as outer space. It follows Ivan Volkov, a Russian student in Beijing, who discovers an unsolved puzzle in the writings of the seventeenth-century astronomer Johannes Kepler. He takes the puzzle to a senior scientist in the Chinese space program and declares his intention to solve it. Volkov returns to Moscow and continues his secret work. The puzzle holds untold consequences for space warfare. 
 
The years pass, and they are not kind to Volkov. After the loss of his son, a prosecutor who’d been too tough on corruption, and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Volkov makes the fraught decision to contact the CIA. He writes: Satellites are your enemies, especially your own. … Hidden codes can make time stop and turn north into south. … If you are smart, you will find me. 
 
With this timely novel, Ignatius addresses our moment of renewed interest in space exploration amid geopolitical tumult. Phantom Orbit brims with the author’s vital insights and casts Volkov as the man who, at the risk of his life, may be able to stop the Doomsday clock.
