  Someone's murdered Brayton Spites! 
  Nobody's sorry he's dead--with one exception. A ruthless, unscrupulous businessman, notorious womanizer, and heartless father, he turned his back on his only legitimate son after the boy's grandfather abused him. So when Spites's body is found in a dark alley in Coyote Springs, the question is not who killed him, but what took so long? 
  Jason Crow, rancher, vintner, and double amputee, is invited to help find his biological father's murderer. He has no idea just how personal the quest is about to become. The list of suspects includes his half-brothers, Harden Spites and Kelvin Dodge, as well as Brayton's alcoholic widow, Dolly Dodge. Then there's Neldona Chance, a prostitute with a heart of gold, who shared a complex relationship with Brayton, Harden, and Kelvin. 
  Bodies pile up. Family tensions rise. Tempers reach the breaking point when the sheriff comes to arrest Jason's grieving and emotionally fragile mother for the murder of the profligate man she never stopped loving.

  A major new examination of the Indian Ocean, revealing how the region has become a hotly contested geopolitical flashpoint 
   
   
    
  Throughout history, the Indian Ocean has been an essential space for trade, commerce, and culture. Every European power has sought to dominate it. Now, after a lull in the postwar period, control of major shipping routes has once again become a critical aspect of every rising state's ambition to be a global power. 
   
   
    
  Darshana M. Baruah shows how governments from Washington, DC, to Nairobi and Canberra are expanding their interests in the region. The Indian Ocean is resource rich, strategically placed, and home to over two billion people. Island nations have become more important than ever, with Madagascar forming ties with Russia and the Comoros with Saudi Arabia. It is also through the region that China engages with Africa and the Middle East. This is a compelling account of the geopolitical significance of the Indian Ocean—showing how the region has taken center stage in a new global contest.

  The Prince

  Niccolò Machiavelli

  The most famous book on politics ever written, The Prince remains as lively and shocking today as when it was written almost five hundred years ago. Initially denounced as a collection of sinister maxims and a recommendation of tyranny, it has more recently been defended as the first scientific treatment of politics as it is practiced rather than as it ought to be practiced. Harvey C. Mansfield’s brilliant translation of this classic work, along with the new materials added for this edition, make it the definitive version of The Prince, indispensable to scholars, students, and those interested in the dark art of politics. 
   
  This revised edition of Mansfield’s acclaimed translation features an updated bibliography, a substantial glossary, an analytic introduction, a chronology of Machiavelli’s life, and a map of Italy in Machiavelli’s time. 
   
  “Of the other available [translations], that of Harvey C. Mansfield makes the necessary compromises between exactness and readability, as well as providing an excellent introduction and notes.”—Clifford Orwin, The Wall Street Journal 
   
  ”Mansfield’s work . . . is worth acquiring as the best combination of accuracy and readability.”—Choice 
   
  ”There is good reason to assert that Machiavelli has met his match in Mansfield. . . . [He] is ready to read Machiavelli as he demands to be read—plainly and boldly, but also cautiously.”—John Gueguen, The Sixteenth Century Journal

  Nature

  "Nature" is an essay written by Ralph Waldo Emerson, first published in 1836. In this essay, Emerson explores the idea of nature as a source of inspiration and knowledge for human beings. 
  Emerson argues that nature is a reflection of the divine and that by immersing oneself in nature, one can attain a deeper understanding of the world and oneself. He encourages individuals to embrace the beauty of nature and to seek solace in its tranquility. 
  Emerson also criticizes society's emphasis on material possessions and commercialism, arguing that it distracts individuals from the natural world and their own spiritual growth. He believes that by returning to nature, individuals can rediscover their true selves and find fulfillment in simplicity. 
  Overall, "Nature" is a celebration of the natural world and a call to return to a simpler, more authentic way of living. It continues to be a seminal work in the American transcendentalist movement and has inspired generations of readers to explore the beauty and wonder of the natural world
