Sinopse

The gripping tale of a less than innocent – yet far from guilty – man unfolds as fifty-year old Pat Donaldson returns to Ireland, the land of his birth. Framed and imprisoned for a crime he did not commit, he finds himself the unwitting victim of Dublin's most ruthless drug baron, a man who acts with impunity from behind a shield of propriety, all the while aided from a cabal of corruption.


All seems lost for Pat until one sole glimmering light of hope, in the form of a young and honest guardian of the law, breaks through the seemingly impenetrable mantle of fate to secretly champion his cause. Good deeds and intentions must combine perfectly with the finesse of legal machinations to triumph over what, on the face of it, seems to be the perfect stooge caught in the perfect set-up.

    In Dedra L. Stevenson's first horror thriller, a young woman unleashes a terror in the form of a dark entity upon her life. Unlike Stevenson's work in Fantasy Fiction and Courtroom Drama, The Skinwalker: Resurrection promises psychological thrills like no other—a dark spirit, a possession, a hidden identity, a love story, the mighty tribe of the Navajo, and a finale that will surprise you. 
      
    Shortly after the discovery of a mysterious book of witchcraft spells in her home, Carmella unknowingly invites something sinister into her world, a long-deceased Navajo skinwalker, and this skinwalker wants to walk the Earth in human flesh again. The witch's faithful servant follows each step that Carmella takes as he serves his Mistress. 
      
    Slowly but surely, she falls prey to the darkness, and only the tribe is left to help her. With the support of her friends and the man that she loves, she is taken to the reservation and a traditional ceremony ensues. Carmella becomes the mortal captive of Haseeya, the Skinwalker witch, and the tribe must ask for the help of an ancient force from the stars.

    A fun, provocative murder mystery about the making of a miniseries in the Hamptons during the summer of 2016 that involves today's streaming TV, #MeToo Hollywood, the rise of Donald Trump, Hamptons parties, the stealing of Native American lands, and a well-known New York newspaper. 
     
     
     
    Author Thomas Maier (Showtime's Masters of Sex, Paramount's Mafia Spies) offers the tale of Jack Denton, a down-on-his luck writer who is happy to see his novel—about the 1880s stealing of Montauk tribal lands by a loud, greedy tycoon—made into a TV series in the Hamptons. Denton is also covering the 2016 political rise of Donald Trump for a famous newspaper. But as he shuttles back and forth between his Manhattan newsroom and the on-location TV set in Montauk, Denton becomes a suspect in the disappearance of a young actress who was part of the same TV show. 
     
     
     
    Montauk to Manhattan is a story of murder, fame, sex, ambition, and the many political passions of our time—all rolled into one.

    A man lost in Tibet for thirty years comes home to an America that has fixed everything — work, housing, food, the position of women — and has to be persuaded that it is not a trick. Charlotte Perkins Gilman published this utopia in 1911, four years before "Herland", and made the reform economic rather than biological. The interest is in what she thought could be changed in one generation. Sixty plates of city life by John Sloan and Paul Klee, from Greenwich Village rooftops to Berlin streets, picture the urban world Gilman's hero must learn to see anew.

    ALL NEW NARRATION 
    Dragons in space? 
    A preposterous legend, dragons dueling with riggers. Nothing can live in the interdimensional Flux of interstellar space. But in the Flux, visions of the mind converge with reality, and visions can be perilous. When star pilot Jael defies an abusive ship’s master and rigs “the mountain route to Lexis,” dragons indeed appear in the night sky—and challenge her to duel to the death. Just one dragon, Highwing, offers her friendship. 
    If she escapes, she would be wise never again to fly this route between the stars. But Jael has been caught up in an age-old struggle between good and evil, in unwitting fulfillment of an ancient prophecy of “One” from the outside who will shake the realm to its foundation. Fate has its ways, and when the currents of space once more bring her back to the dragon realm, she finds Highwing under sentence of death for the kindness he showed her. Only “the One” can intervene—and so Jael must, for the sake of one who risked his life to save hers. 
    A genre-bending novel of the Star Rigger Universe, from the Nebula-nominated author of Eternity’s End, and recipient of the Frank Herbert Lifetime Achievement Award for writing science fiction. 
    “Carver writes powerfully and clearly and has produced a book that is likely to find an audience among hard SF readers.” —Booklist
