American Blood Ben Sanders JANUARY 2016 American Blood Ben Sanders A former undercover cop now in witness protection finds himself pulled into the search for a missing woman. An explosive, unputdownable work of suspense from a fresh voice in crime fiction. Description After a botched undercover operation, ex-NYPD officer Marshall Grade is living in witness protection in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Marshall's instructions are to keep a low profile: the mob wants him dead, and a contract killer known as the Dallas Man has been hired to track him down. Racked with guilt over wrongs committed during his undercover work, and seeking atonement, Marshall investigates the disappearance of a local woman named Alyce Ray. Members of a drug ring seem to hold clues to Ray's whereabouts, but hunting traffickers is no quiet task. Word of Marshall's efforts spreads, and soon the worst elements of his former life, including the Dallas Man, are coming for him. Written by a rising New Zealand star who has been described as 'first rate', this American debut drops a Jack Reacher- like hero into the landscape of No Country for Old Men. With film rights sold to Warner Bros, and Bradley Cooper attached to play tortured hero Marshall Grade, American Blood is sure to follow in their award-winning, blockbuster success. 'This novel has it all - great characters that are all too-real, switch-blade sharp writing, dialogue that would bring a smile to Elmore Leonard's face and a plot that grabs the reader by the collar, squeezes hard and never lets go. American Blood is a first-rate, first-class, top-tier thriller and Ben Sanders hits it far and deep. This is one book that flat-out demands to be read. Just sit back and enjoy the ride. If you love a good thriller, then look no further than American Blood.'- Lorenzo Caracterra, New York Times-bestselling author of Sleepers and The Wolf.

Description One case still haunts Hardy ... Legendary PI Cliff Hardy has reached an age when the obituaries have become part of his reading, and one triggers his memory of a case in the late 1980s. Back then Sydney was awash with colourful characters, and Cliff is reminded of a case involving 'Ten-Pound Pom' Barry Bartlett and racing identity and investor Sir Keith Mountjoy. Bartlett, a former rugby league player and boxing manager, then a prosperous property developer, had hired Hardy to check on the bona fides of young Ronny Saunders, newly arrived from England, and claiming to be Bartlett's son from an early failed marriage. The job brought Hardy into contact with Richard Keppler, head of the no-rules Botany Security Systems, Bronwen Marr, an undercover AFP operative, and sworn adversary Des O'Malley. At a time when corporate capitalism was running riot, an embattled Hardy searched for leads - was Ronny Saunders a pawn in a game involving big oil and fraud on an international scale? Two murders raise the stakes and with the sinister figure of Lady Betty Lee Mountjoy pulling the strings, it was odds against a happy outcome. About the Author Peter Corris has been writing his best selling Cliff Hardy detective stories for thirty years. He's written many other books, including a very successful 'as-told-to' autobiography of Fred Hollows, and a collection of short stories about golf.

But now it's all over and Lizzie is ready to spill the beans. An addictively juicy novel of celebrity love gone wrong! Description Actress Lizzie Pepper was America's Girl Next Door and her marriage to Hollywood mega-star Rob Mars was tabloid gold-a whirlwind romance and an elaborate celebrity-studded wedding landed them on the cover of every celebrity weekly. But fame, beauty, and wealth weren't enough to keep their marriage together. Hollywood's 'It' couple are over-and now Lizzie is going to tell her side of the story. Celebrity ghostwriter Hilary Liftin chronicles the tabloids' favourite marriage as Lizzie Pepper realises that, when the curtain falls, her romance isn't what she and everyone else thought. From her lonely holidays in sumptuous villas to her husband's deep commitment to a disconcertingly repressive mind-body group, Lizzie reveals a side of fame that her fans never get to see. Full of twists and turns, Movie Star by Lizzie Pepper is a breathless journey to the heights of Hollywood power and royalty and a life in the spotlight that is nearly impossible to escape. About the Author Hilary Liftin is a collaborator specializing in celebrity memoir. Before becoming a full-time writer, Hilary worked in the publishing industry for ten years, holding positions in editorial, marketing, and business development at Houghton Mifflin, Barnes & Noble.com, and the ebook division of Time Warner Books (now Hachette).

Description When Lindsay Starwood moved from her tiny home town to the bright lights of Melbourne, she had no idea that her after- school babysitting job would turn into a career. Her boss was Steven Stavros, the nineties boy-band heartthrob more famous of late for his extramarital activities than his hit records. However, word soon got out about the Australian nanny who was great with kids, cool in a crisis and capable of keeping the secrets of the rich and famous tightly under wraps. But being a celebrity nanny isn't the Mary Poppins fantasy you might imagine. When Lindsay finds herself caring for the six (yes, six!) daughters of fame-hungry reality television star Alysha Appleby, her patience is pushed to the limit. Will dashing pro-golfer Tommy Grant restore Lindsay's faith that wealth can go hand in hand with kindness? Or will she have to choose between the children she loves and her own happiness? With a cast of millionaires ripped straight from the headlines, this is a fast-paced, outrageous novel for anyone who loves gossip, glamour and a sneak peek into the unbelievable world of a nanny to the stars.

  • The Judas Kiss Directed by Michael Michetti
    Contact: Niki Blumberg, Tim Choy 323-954-7510 [email protected], [email protected] Boston Court Pasadena presents David Hare’s The Judas Kiss Directed by Michael Michetti February 15 – March 24 Press Opening: February 23 2019 Theatre Season Sponsored by the S. Mark Taper Foundation PASADENA, CA (January 17, 2019) — Boston Court Pasadena commences the 2019 theatre season with a rare production of David Hare’s The Judas Kiss (February 15 – March 24), which tells the story of Oscar Wilde’s love for Lord Alfred “Bosie” Douglas – and tracking his downfall as he endures a brutal trial and life in exile. Helmed by Artistic Director Michael Michetti, the play examines a literary icon who continues to hold onto his passionate ideals of love and beauty as his life crumbles around him. Sir David Hare, the British playwright behind Plenty, Skylight, and Stuff Happens creates “an emotionally rich drama illuminated by Hare’s customary insight and humanity.” (The Globe and MaiI). The Judas Kiss features Rob Nagle (Oscar Wilde), Colin Bates (Lord Alfred “Bosie” Douglas), Darius De La Cruz (Robert Ross), Will Dixon (Sandy Moffatt), Matthew Campbell Dowling (Arthur Wellesley), Mara Klein (Phoebe Cane) and Kurt Kanazawa (Galileo Masconi). In spring of 1895, Oscar Wilde was larger than life. His masterpiece, The Importance of Being Earnest, was a hit in the West End and he was the toast of London. Yet by summer he was serving two years in prison for gross indecency. Punished for “the love that dare not speak its name,” Wilde remained devoted to his beloved, Lord Alfred “Bosie” Douglas.

  • Stuart Neville the Ghosts of Belfast
    STUART NEVILLE THE GHOSTS OF BELFAST/THE TWELVE (2009) One of Northern Ireland’s best known and critically reviewed crime writers, Stuart Neville was born in Belfast in 1972. He is the author of seven novels featuring Belfast. His first, The Ghosts of Belfast (published in Ireland as The Twelve) won several awards. His latest, Here and Gone (under the pseudonym Haylen Beck), takes place in Arizona. In the introduction to the anthology, Belfast Noir (Akashic Books 2014), Neville and co-editor Adrian McKinty make the point that during the Troubles Belfast languished culturally. By the time of the 1998 Peace Accord the mystery/crime writers of Northern Ireland had become prominent around the world. Most novels set during the Troubles focus on the effects of the violence on innocent bystanders. Ghosts takes you out of your comfort zone and asks you to deal with characters who are both the cause and perpetrators of the violence. How important is this to understanding the Troubles? Ghosts takes the reader into the psyche of an IRA assassin although the term IRA is never mentioned in the book. Do we feel any sympathy or empathy for Gerry Fegan? Why? Why not? What motivates Fegan to become an IRA hit man? What motivates the double agent Davey Campell? Are the politicians seen as more culpable? Think of the interchange between Fegan and McGinty toward the end of the novel. To what extent does the repeated phrase, “everyone pays, sooner or later,” become a motif in the novel? In a review in The Guardian, Nicola Barr, praises the novel as “a brilliant thriller…Neville has boldly exposed the post-ceasefire Northern Ireland as a confused, contradictory place, a country trying to carve out a future amid a peace recognize by the populace as hypocritical, but accepted as better than the alternative.” While teaching a fiction master class at Armagh, Neville stated that a compulsive plot is not simply a sequence of events but is the inevitable consequences of creating strong characters and allowing them to pursue their conflicting issues.
