    From a maverick of 20th century fiction, a domestic drama set on the cusp of Brazil’s abolition of slavery. 
     
    Released just two months before his death in 1908, Memorial de Ayres was Machado de Assis’s final novel. Written in the form of a diary, it follows the day-to-day happenings of a retired diplomat, Counselor Ayres, during the waning years of the Brazilian empire. 
     
    Ayres lives a simple life: The most eventful parts of his week are lunch with his sister or a visit to their family cemetery. But a new love interest pushes Ayres from the confines of his quiet routine and into the warm, welcoming home of the Aguiars, an older couple who never had children. The Aguiar household is a center of merriment, a necessary outlet for the reclusive Ayres―and where Brazil’s well-to-do ponder the momentous changes afoot. 
     
    Marked by Machado’s sly humor and psychological subtlety―and set in a singularly transformative moment in Brazil’s history―Memorial de Ayres is a quietly prescient tale of personal and national legacy.

    As bookstore owner Addie Greyborne shares the loving lesson of The Gift of the Magi, the spirit of the season falls prey to a thief and a killer . . . 
     
     
     
    There's no place like the seaside Massachusetts town of Greyborne Harbor for the holidays, and there's no better feeling for Addie than donating to the lighthouse museum's Twelve Days of Christmas charity fundraiser. Of the dozen books she'll be offering as prizes from her Beyond the Page Books and Curios shop, the most special volume is a first edition of The Gift of the Magi imported from England—signed by O. Henry! Addie receives an unexpected Christmas bonus when the book is hand delivered by visiting Detective Inspector Noah Parker, whom she met in England, and has been daydreaming about ever since. 
     
     
     
    But on the night Addie delivers the book to the museum, someone posing as one of Santa's Little Helpers swipes it—and the rest of the charity gifts. As if the theft wasn't bad enough, a body is found on the rocks outside the lighthouse, believed to be murdered. Now, it's up to Addie to connect the clues, find stolen goods, and catch a killer—in order to usher in a Happy New Year . . .
