  Step behind the palace doors in this gripping historical novel that is a must read for fans of The Crown and Princess Diana! 
  Buckingham Palace, 1981 
  Her engagement to Prince Charles is a dream come true for Lady Diana Spencer but marrying the heir to the throne is not all that it seems. Alone and bored in the palace, she resents the stuffy courtiers who are intent on instructing her about her new role as Princess of Wales… 
  But when she discovers a diary written in the 1800s by Princess Charlotte of Wales, a young woman born into a gilded cage so like herself, Diana is drawn into the story of Charlotte’s reckless love affairs and fraught relationship with her father, the Prince Regent. 
  As she reads the diary, Diana can see many parallels with her own life and future as Princess of Wales. 
  The story allows a behind-the-scenes glimpse of life in the palace, the tensions in Diana’s relationship with the royal family during the engagement, and the wedding itself.Praise for Flora Harding:

  Behind the Door - The Dark...

  The disturbing true story of the notorious Cecil Hotel in downtown LA, by its general manager for a decade and star of the controversial Netflix documentary series Crime Scene: The Vanishing at the Cecil Hotel.  
   
  When Amy Price took a temporary design job at an Art Deco hotel in Los Angeles to help a friend, she had no idea the path it would lead her down. Before long, she would become manager of the Cecil Hotel, seeking to make it more welcoming and correct its notoriety, not helped by sitting at the foot of Skid Row, or the fact that since its opening in 1927, there had been any number of deaths by suicide, and residents such as serial killers Richard Ramirez and Jack Unterweger. 
  She cared about guests and residents alike, though she faced challenges on many fronts, with over eighty people dying during her decade of service. Among them was Elisa Lam, whose tragic death became the subject of a Netflix documentary series that captivated millions and led to its own controversies and unwarranted personal attacks on Amy. 
  For the first time, Amy delves into her experiences at the Cecil Hotel. Equal parts memoir, true-crime, and cultural history, Behind the Door is essential to understanding one of America’s most enigmatic hotels.

  Born in a small German town at the dawn of World War II, Peter Paulsen was raised by a resourceful, resilient single mother, and immigrated with his family to the United States at age eighteen. With a strong work ethic and a belief in the power of positive thinking, Peter went from journeyman bricklayer to starting his own masonry company at age twenty-one. Before Peter turned thirty, he was developing high-quality, single-family homes and apartment complexes that he designed himself. From there, he went on to additional residential and commercial development, including multi-building office parks, innovatively designed apartment complexes, and even a luxury waterfront hotel. Peter has owned a bank and two shopping centers, and has become a highly successful, self-taught stock investor. At every turn, Peter used his abilities and passion for reading, learning, and continually reimagining his goals to build one success on top of another. 
  Spanning nine decades, From Brick and Mortar to Prosperity: How I Created Wealth tells Peter’s story, from his boyhood in Germany to his active and satisfying life today, investing in stocks and using his foundation, the Peter Paulsen Foundation, to give back to his community and others. Throughout the book, Peter uses thought-provoking questions to inspire readers to discover – and fulfill – their own dreams. Told in an engaging, motivating style, Peter’s story is a modern-day narration of the American Dream.

  Blame Me on History

  'Modisane's book, read today by all South Africans, will expose our raw pasts, private and public in their nature, which are still present in many forms as unacknowledged antecedents … Engrossed and fascinated, I turned the pages of Blame Me on History as fast as I could.' – Njabulo S Ndebele
  Feeling an exile in the country of his birth, the talented journalist and leading black intellectual Bloke Modisane left South Africa in 1959. It was shortly after the apartheid government had bulldozed Sophiatown, the township of his childhood. His biting indictment of apartheid, Blame Me on History, was published in 1963 – and banned shortly afterwards.
  Modisane offers a harrowing account of the degradation and oppression faced daily by black South Africans. His penetrating observations and insightful commentary paint a vivid picture of what it meant to be black in apartheid South Africa. At the same time, his evocative writing transports the reader back to a time when Sophiatown still teemed with life.
  This 60th-anniversary edition of Modisane's autobiography serves as an example of passionate resistance to the scourge of racial discrimination in our country, and is a reminder not to forget our recent past.

  The Bomb Doctor - A Scientist's...

  This is not CSI. What you encounter as a true bomb detective—or "Bomb Doctor," as some in the FBI call me—are fields of twisted metal containing soot-covered fragments intermingled with human remains. You have carnage and chaos. As you wade into that sea of wailing sirens and screaming survivors awash with the stench of diesel fuel and decaying bodies, your job is to ferret out forensic clues in a type of macabre scavenger hunt to ultimately reconstruct the scene and the explosive device and determine what happened and what the bomb looked like before it was torn asunder. 
   
   
   
  The scavenger hunt can take months—or, in the case of the infamous Collar Bomber, seven painstaking years. The work is worth every second and every horrific image that etches itself into your brain because it helps prevent new horrors. Not all, obviously. We are not superheroes. But unlike shooters, who often just "snap" or seem to act out in random ways, bombers almost always have a story—one that follows an arc. 
   
   
   
  In The Bomb Doctor, my goal is to explain that arc, explode myths, reconstruct reality, and build an understanding of the reason and means behind the mayhem, as well as pull back the curtain on the investigative process that brings bombers to justice.
