    The Hound of the Baskervilles is the third of the four crime novels written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle featuring the detective Sherlock Holmes. Originally serialised in The Strand Magazine from August 1901 to April 1902, it is set largely on Dartmoor in Devon in England's West Country and tells the story of an attempted murder inspired by the legend of a fearsome, diabolical hound of supernatural origin. Sherlock Holmes and his companion Dr. Watson investigate the case. This was the first appearance of Holmes since his apparent death in "The Final Problem", and the success of The Hound of the Baskervilles led to the character's eventual revival.

    Yellowstone meets INTO THIN AIR 
    Patrick Flint is about to make the most harrowing climb of his life. 
    When the body of Patrick's beautiful young climbing partner floats up dead in the creek behind the Flint home, rumors about the two of them explode, thrusting Susanne into the role of the woman scorned and the crosshairs of the police. 
    If he fails to summit, he may lose his life. And his wife. 
    The Flints' teenage kids get sucked into the turmoil, too, with Perry making decisions that could cost him his future, and Trish becoming entangled with two local thugs, just as a past love resurfaces in her life. 
    It's a race against time, a killer or killers unknown, and the mountain itself. 
    With their freedom at stake and a killer on their heels, Patrick and Susanne must learn to trust again, revisit old memories, and delve into secrets, all to unearth a treasure the likes of which tiny Buffalo, Wyoming has never known. 
    “Best books I’ve read in a long time!” 
    SKIN AND BONES is the eighth book in the Patrick Flint series of thrilling mysteries, a spin-off from the What Doesn't Kill You saga.

    You must read J. Herman Kleiger’s psychologically textured mystery to find out. Tears Are Only Water entwines a complex and twisty plot with the raw journey of breakdown, healing, and transformation. 
    Carmine Luedke, a shy, narcoleptic bookkeeper hides from the world and comforts himself by reciting arcane mathematical equations and proofs. Unable to stay awake during the day, he works through the night balancing the books. But suddenly, the numbers aren’t adding up…. 
    One fateful night, an unexpected and shocking reunion with a long-lost friend he believed to be dead sends shockwaves through Carmine's carefully crafted routine. She arrives with an urgent plea and vanishes into thin air, leaving him with more questions than answers. Desperate for clarity, Carmine's life spirals into chaos, and he withdraws from the world, struggling to make sense of it all. His self-absorbed older sister, a battle-hardened deputy, and a wise Navajo Elder all attempt to reach him, but the question remains: is it already too late?

    WHEN YOU FIND THOSE WHO PREY ON THE INNOCENT, YOU HAVE FOUND THE BEAST ...It is 1979 and the Cold War tensions between the the United States and Soviet Union have risen to a peak of intensity that makes MAD—Mutually Assured Destruction—seem inevitable. But the nuclear arsenals, aimed at enemy cities across an ocean, are not the true weaponry in a global conflict that is seething to the point of eruption beneath the thin veneer of diplomacy and empty political agreements.Spiritual forces, powers of darkness and light, are gathering to battle for the soul and future of the world.Off the coast of Brazil, Brady, a young man who has received a beautiful and terrible gift from the Blessed Virgin, begins the dance of death, delivering long overdue vengeance on a Nazi war criminal who has been secreted in opulent shadows for decades. But killing one of Hitler’s most ruthless monsters is only a prelude. For now, Brady has unraveled the first thread of a mystery that will provoke the wrath of demons and angels alike.Brady, with the unwavering support of his brothers and sworn friends and allies—joined by spiritual descendants of an ancient order of Jewish warriors—will wage battles that send seismic tremors rippling throughout the Holy Land and the Vatican and all major world capitals—leading “the boy who can call angels” to a horror-filled chateau outside of Paris, and finally, to an ominous Irish castle. It there that Brady will face his greatest challenge, for the castle is home to The Bishop, a servant of the Beast; a man who preys upon the innocent; a man who has amassed incredible power while hiding within the vestiges of the Church.Brady’s only hope for survival—the world’s only hope—is wielding the Sword of Vengeance.

    In war, every action has a beginning and an end. 
     
     
     
    Echo Among Warriors is a story of close combat between two opposing, equally committed adversaries. The powerful narrative immerses the listener in both sides of the battle, playing and replaying the same battle sequence from alternating viewpoints—through the eyes of the Marines and through the eyes of the North Vietnamese. The bullet fired from a Marine's M-16 at a silhouetted enemy solider crouched on the jungle path will in the next chapter tear into the flesh of that crouched NVA trooper. The story—unfolding from the initial contact to the final horrific ending—represents just one of perhaps thousands of deadly encounters that reflect the reality of battle—a mind-numbing, intensely personal experience that forever changes the participant.
