Gardiner, Lisa Live to Tell Boston PD Detective D.D. Warren is called to the home of a family of five — four of whom are now dead and the fifth, the dad, lying comatose in the hospital. What initially appears to be a simple, if horrifying, case of murder/suicide quickly turns into something else when a second family is found dead at home. Warren's investigations run parallel to the stories of two other women. Danielle Burton is the lone survivor of the murder of her own family by her father 25 years ago, while Victoria Oliver is living in near isolation as she cares for her severely mentally disturbed eight-year-old son.

In London, when General Charles Ferguson, adviser to the prime minister, approaches his car on a side street, there is a flash and the car explodes. In New York, when a former British soldier takes a short walk in Central Park to stretch his legs, a man comes up fast behind him, a pistol in his hand. And that is only the beginning. Someone is targeting the members of the elite intelligence unit known as the Prime Minister's private army and all those who work with them, and whoever is doing it has a lot of resources at his command. Special Operative Sean Dillon has an idea of who it may be, an old who has clearly gotten tired of their interference in his schemes. But proving it is going to be a difficult task. And surviving it the hardest task of all.

Hoffman, Alice The Red Garden Hoffman‘s latest is a sequence of beguiling, linked stories rooted in colonial times and reaching into the present. In 1750, the first foolhardy families — the Motts, Partridges, Starrs, and Bradys —settle in the lush and wildlands of Massachusetts — a land of blackflies, bears, eels, and harsh winters — only survive because Hallie Brady, the first of a line of determined and adept women in what becomes the small town of Blackwell in Berkshire County, goes out into the snowy wilderness to find sustenance. As spring allows the founding families to cultivate the strange red soil in the village‘s first garden, Johnny Appleseed stays for a spell, and, later, Emily Dickinson happens by. Generation by generation, humans and animals form profound bonds; women‘s lives change, somewhat; men go to war; people are poor and in despair; illness and violence rage; strangers find refuge; and love blossoms impossibly, extravagantly, and inevitably. In gloriously sensuous, suspenseful, mystical, tragic, and redemptive linked episodes, Hoffman has expanded and developed the idea of family and community — the forces that bind it together and the forces that drive it apart.

Katz, Jon Rose in a Storm Told from the perspective of Rose, a farm dog, Katz's latest pits man and dog against the forces of nature.

But when Sam is injured from a fall from the roof and lies buried beneath a snow drift, Rose is left alone to deal with harsh winds, subzero temperatures, a lack of food, frozen water supplies, and the ever-lurking pack of coyotes. Fully immersing himself inside the mind and the soul of his furry protagonist, he conjures up a believably canine view of the joys and sorrows of life on a small farm.

Koontz, Dean What the Night Knows In the late summer of a long ago year, a killer arrived in a small city. His name was Alton Turner Blackwood, and in the space of a few months he brutally murdered four families. His savage spree ended only when he himself was killed by the last survivor of the last family, a 14-year-old boy. Half a continent away and two decades later, someone is murdering families again, recreating in detail Blackwood‘s crimes. Homicide detective John Calvino is certain that his own family — his wife and three children — will be targets in the fourth crime, just as his parents and sisters were victims on that distant night when he was 14 and killed their slayer. As a detective, John is a man of reason who deals in cold facts, but an extraordinary experience convinces him that sometimes death is not a one-way journey. Sometimes the dead return.

Krauss, Nicole Great House For 25 years, a reclusive American novelist has been writing at the desk she inherited from a young Chilean poet who disappeared at the hands of Pinochet's secret police; one day a girl claiming to be the poet's daughter arrives to take it away, sending the writer's life reeling. Across the ocean, in the leafy suburbs of London, a man caring for his dying wife discovers, among her papers, a lock of hair that unravels a terrible secret. In Jerusalem, an antiques dealer slowly reassembles his father's study, plundered by the Nazis in Budapest in 1944. Connecting these stories is a desk of drawers that exerts a power over those who possess it or have given it away. As these narrators make their confessions, the desk takes on more and more meaning, and comes finally to stand for all that has been taken from them, and all that binds them to what has disappeared. Finalist for the 2010 National Book Award in Fiction, Great House is a story haunted by questions: What do we pass on to our children and how do they absorb our dreams and losses? How do we respond to disappearance, destruction, and change?

Lippman, Laura The Girl in the Green Raincoat In the third trimester of her pregnancy, Baltimore private investigator Tess Monaghan is under doctor's orders to remain immobile.

Then one day the dog is running free and its owner is nowhere to be seen. Certain that something is terribly wrong, and incapable of leaving well enough alone, Tess is determined to get to the bottom of the dog walker's abrupt disappearance, even if she must do so from her own bedroom. But her inquisitiveness is about to fling open a dangerous Pandora's box of past crimes and troubling deaths ... and she's not only putting her own life in jeopardy but also her unborn child's.

Mengestu, Dinaw How to Read the Air Prizewinning international literary award-winner Mengestu stunningly illuminates the immigrant experience across two generations. Jonas Woldemariam's parents, near strangers when they marry in violence-torn Ethiopia, spend most of the early years of their marriage separated; eventually reuniting in America, but their ensuing life together devolves into a mutual hatred that forces a contentious divorce. Three decades later, Jonas, himself moving toward a divorce, retraces his parents' fateful honeymoon road trip from Peoria, Ill., to Nashville in an attempt to understand an upbringing that turned him into a man who has "gone numb as a tactical strategy" and become a fluent and inveterate liar — a skill that comes in handy at his job at an immigration agency, where he embellishes African immigrants' stories so that they might be granted asylum. Mengestu draws a haunting psychological portrait of recent immigrants to America, insecure and alienated, striving to fit in while mourning the loss of their cultural heritage and social status. What Jonas weaves together is a family history that — real or invented — holds the possibility of reconciliation and , and what he learns is that simply going forward is in fact to triumph.

Mosley, Robert The Last Days of Ptolemy Grey Ptolemy Grey is 91-years old and has been all but forgotten — by his family, his friends, even himself — as he sinks into a lonely dementia. His grand-nephew, Reggie, Ptolemy's only connection to the outside world was recently killed in a drive-by shooting, and Ptolemy is too suspicious of anyone else to allow them into his life, until he meets Robyn, his niece's 17-year-old lodger and the only one willing to take care of an old man at his grandnephew's funeral. But Robyn will not tolerate Ptolemy's hermitlike existence, she challenges him to interact more with the world around him, and with her inspiration, he struggles to grasp more firmly onto his disappearing consciousness. In time, a reinvigorated Ptolemy volunteers for an experimental medical program that will restore his mind, but at hazardous cost: he won't live to see 92. With the clock ticking, Ptolemy uses his rejuvenated mental abilities to delve into the mystery of the recent drive-by shooting, and to render justice the only way he knows how. With his mind clear, what Ptolemy finds, in his own past, in his own apartment, and in the circumstances surrounding his grand-nephew's death, is shocking enough to spur him to action, ensuring a legacy that no one will forget. In a masterful, moving novel about age, memory, and family, Mosley captures the compromised state of his protagonist's mind with profound sensitivity and insight, and creates an unforgettable pair of characters who, together, create a world where nothing can be stolen, only given, with the limitless generosity of love.

Jefferson The Border Lords ATF agent Sean Ozburn is deep undercover supporting the North Baja Cartel, when he suddenly goes completely dark, evading Charlie Hood and the support team from Operation Blowdown and attacking the Mexican drug cartel on his own terms.

Sean's only communication in the following days consists of a series of haunting digital videos sent to his desperately worried wife, Seliah. As he pieces together evidence of his friend's strange quest and searches the border landscape, following faint signals to the man's whereabouts, Hood must determine if Oz is simply chasing demons deeper undercover than anyone has ever gone, or whether his friend has suffered a permanent break with his mission and moral compass. The porousness of the U.S.-Mexico border and the ease with which guns, drugs, and killers pass back and forth is illustrated frighteningly here.

Large Print — Nonfiction Abuelaish, Izzeldin I Shall Not Hate Born in a refugee camp in 1955, Palestinian physician Abuelaish suffered a catastrophic loss when three of his daughters were killed in their home by Israeli fire in 2009. An Israeli journalist's live broadcast of his call for help captured Israeli public and world press attention. ―Most of the world has heard of the Gaza Strip,‖ Abuelaish says, ―but few know what it's like to live here, blockaded, impoverished, year after year, decade after decade.‖ Abuelaish portrays everyday life in Gaza and tells the remarkable story of how he came to be 'the first Palestinian doctor to be on staff at an Israeli hospital.' The tortured politics of Palestine, Israel, and the Middle East are rendered graphic by his personal accounts of the humiliation, the fear, the physical difficulty of border checkpoints and bulldozed homes. His response to this tragedy made news and won him humanitarian awards around the world. Instead of seeking revenge or sinking into hatred, Abuelaish called for the people in the region to start talking to each other. His deepest hope is that his daughters will be "the last sacrifice on the road to peace between Palestinians and Israelis." A deeply affecting narrative, his message is punctuated by injunctions to love that are far from corny Rather, his admonitions are tried by the searing experiences of a righteous man striving to act decently in a place of madness.

Blair, Tom Poorer Richard’s America For decades, Benjamin Franklin‘s ―Poor Richard‘s Almanack‖ provided sage advice and commentary on 18th-century America. Now, a modern businessman reflects, writing as Benjamin Franklin, on what America has become. Federal and personal debt is ballooning beyond sustainable levels. Our futures are being jeopardized. Partisan bickering and the entrenched powers of special interests have made it nearly impossible for a real leader to lead. Where is a good American to turn? How about to the man who wrote this timeless observation: ―A small leak will sink a great ship‖? With his signature intelligence and wit (not to mention a good sprinkling of aphorisms both old and new), Benjamin Franklin, through Tom Blair, moves from the national deficit to Wall Street, from health care to marital bliss.

Chernow, Ron Washington: a Life In his latest, biographer Chernow provides a richly nuanced portrait of the father of our nation. With a breadth and depth matched by no other one-volume life of Washington, this crisply paced narrative carries the reader through his troubled boyhood, his precocious feats in the French and Indian War, his creation of Mount Vernon, his heroic exploits with the Continental Army, his presiding over the Constitutional Convention, and his magnificent performance as America's first president.

Duno, Steve Last Dog on the Hill Born of guard dogs on a secret marijuana farm in Mendicino County, Lou truly was one dog in a million. On the winter day that the ailing, tick-infested feral pup was rescued by Steve Duno, neither dog nor man had a clue as to what they were getting into, or where the relationship would lead. ―Last Dog on the Hill‖ tells of how this indigent, young Rottweiler mix went on to change the lives of hundreds of people and dogs, including the author‘s, whose career as a behaviorist and writer was made possible through Lou‘s extraordinary intelligence and heart. Lou won the respect of gang members, foiled an armed robbery, caught a rapist, fought coyotes and kidnappers, comforted elderly war veterans and Alzheimer patients in their final days, taught ASL to kids, learned scores of unique behaviors and tricks, amassed a vocabulary of nearly 200 words, helped rehabilitate hundreds of aggressive dogs and saved them from euthanasia. He was also a clown, consummate performer, and Steve‘s best friend for 16 years. His story will make readers laugh and cry in equal measures.

Gup, Ted A Secret Gift Shortly before Christmas 1933 in Depression-scarred Canton, Ohio, a small newspaper ad offered $10, no strings attached, to 75 families in distress. Interested readers were asked to submit letters describing their hardships to a benefactor calling himself Mr. B. Virdot. The author's grandfather Sam Stone was inspired to place this ad and assist his fellow Cantonians as they prepared for the cruelest Christmas most of them would ever witness. Moved by the tales of suffering and expressions of hope contained in the letters, which he discovered in a suitcase 75 years later, Ted Gup initially set out to unveil the lives behind them, searching for records and relatives all over the country who could help him flesh out the family sagas hinted at in those letters. From these sources, Gup has re-created the impact that Mr B. Virdot's gift had on each family. Many people yearned for bread, coal, or other necessities, but many others received money from B. Virdot for more fanciful items — a toy horse, or a set of encyclopedias. As Gup's investigations revealed, all these things had the power to turn people's lives around, even to save them. But as he uncovered the suffering and triumphs of dozens of strangers, Gup also learned that Sam Stone was far more complex than the lovable retiree he'd always shown his grandson. Gup unearths deeply buried details about Sam's life — from his impoverished, abusive and horrific childhood as a Romanian Jew, to felonious efforts to hide his immigrant origins from U.S. officials — that help explain why he felt such a strong affinity to strangers in need. Drawing on his unique find and his award-winning reportorial gifts, Gup solves a singular family mystery even while he pulls away the veil of eight decades that separate us from the hardships that united America during the Depression.

Gilbert, Elizabeth Committed Sure it garnered starred reviews, but who knew that Gilbert‘s memoir about her quest for healing, ―Eat, Pray, Love‖ (2006), would become what she describes as a ―megajumbo international best-seller‖? Or that she would be in demand as a relationship guru? Or that her relationship with Felipe, the Brazilian businessman she fell in love with in Bali, would get so complicated? An Australian citizen, Felipe was living with Gilbert in the U.S. on a visa-to-visa basis until Homeland Security denied him re-entry. As post- traumatic-divorce syndrome sufferers, they swore never to remarry, but marry they must if they want to be together in the States. This effort involved a humongous amount of red tape and time, so they set off on a rambling trip across Southeast Asia, and Gilbert tries to banish her fears by embarking on a crash course in the history, practice, and meaning of marriage. Her far-roaming inquiry, much of it focused on the paradoxes in women‘s lives, is presumptuous and trite one moment, and incisive and funny the next. Ultimately, she tells an romantic tale spiked with unusual and resonant insights into love and marriage.

Jackson, Tracey Between a Rock and a Hot Place The pop-culture mantra has it wrong: 50 is not the new 30. 50 is 50. And while today‘s 50 may not look the same as one‘s grandmother‘s, one shouldn‘t necessarily use a teenager as a role model either. Veteran screenwriter Jackson adopts a take-no-prisoners approach that tilts toward kicking-and-screaming. Forget your fountain of youth: today‘s mature woman is more likely to need a battalion of specialists and a bucket of supplements just to keep up. Along with losses (career, libido) come undesirable gains (crow‗s-feet, creaky knees), and thanks to hormone-replacement therapy and Botox injections, spinning classes and Spanx bodywear, mammograms and colonoscopies, the rituals and rigors associated with aging manage to seem simultaneously counterintuitive and counterproductive. The cure for fear is laughter, and this book offers a powerful antidote to all the scary aspects of aging. Jackson‘s stunning candor and sparkling high spirits will have women of all ages laughing as they confront everything from menopause to wrinkles.

Keller, Timothy Generous Justice The pastor of New York City's Redeemer Presbyterian Church offers a persuasive plea for evangelicals to embrace social justice efforts. Keller, whose evangelical credentials are well respected, is among a new breed of conservative Christians eager to break out of the straitjacket that frowns on justice work as doctrinally unsound or the work of overzealous liberals. Without ever resorting to hyperbole, Keller carefully analyzes Old and New Testament passages to make the case that God's heart for justice on behalf of widows, orphans, immigrants, and the poor is indisputable, and that an encounter with grace will inevitably lead to a desire for justice.

Kershaw, Alex The Envoy Until 1944, the Jews of Hungary had been left relatively unscathed by the surrounding slaughter, despite the anti-Semitic leanings of both the Hungarian government and large segments of the population. But as Nazi military disasters mounted, there was a rush to complete the ―Final Solution.‖ Nazi officials placed immense pressure upon the Hungarian government, and the roundup and attempted extermination of Hungarian Jews commenced, driven, with his typical ruthless efficiency, by Adolf Eichmann. By July 1944, an estimated half-million Hungarian Jews had been deported. The effort to save the remnants is largely the story of the remarkable Swedish diplomat Raoul Wallenberg. Kershaw recounts those efforts in a tense, fast-moving narrative that shows Wallenberg as a match for Eichmann in intelligence and determination as he utilized fake documents, safe houses, and a variety of other methods to save thousands of Jewish lives. This is an inspiring story that illustrates how one dedicated human can make an impact, even against a monstrous tyranny.

Lewis, Michael The Big Short Lewis is perhaps best known for his sports-related nonfiction (including ―The Blind Side‖). Here, he returns to his financial roots to excavate the crisis of 2007–2008, employing his trademark technique of casting a microcosmic lens on the personal histories of several Wall Street outsiders who were betting against the grain to shed light on the macrocosmic tale of greed and fear. He explains and demystifies how things really work on Wall Street, while creating a compelling narrative and introducing a cast of fascinating, all- too-human characters, giving readers the truest picture yet of what went wrong on Wall Street — and why. At times, it reads like a morality play, at other times like a farce, but as with any good play, its value lies in the way it reveals character and motive and explores the cultural context in which the plot unfolds.

Rasmussen, Daniel American Uprising When Americans think of slave rebellions, Nat Turner and John Brown come to mind, but the largest armed resistance to slavery in U.S. history was commanded by Kook, Quamana, Harry Kenner, and Charles Deslondes. The four led an army of nearly 500 slaves in 1811 to revolt against plantation masters and to march on New Orleans. Historian Rasmussen details the political climate of the time, including French sugar plantation owners destabilized by efforts of the U.S. government to Americanize the region, threats from nearby Spanish-held territories, and the slave revolts in Haiti, 6,000 miles away. The slaves were emboldened by Haiti and aided by a cosmopolitan mix of ethnic groups — Africans, Native Americans, people of mixed race, slaves, and Maroons — who enjoyed fairly free movement around the area. Rasmussen details the history and politics of the region, the revolt itself, and the vengeful reprisals that followed, including efforts to rewrite its history.

Sacks, Oliver M.D. The Mind’s Eye Sacks, a neurologist and practicing physician at Columbia University Medical Center, has become famous for combining his knowledge as a physician and his compassion for people coping with neurological disorders. In a collection of essays, Sacks explores our shared condition through a series of vivid characters. From the power of speech to the ability to read and see, all the people profiled here began with their full abilities, lost them, and compensated. Dr. Sacks' own eye cancer is also revealed in a powerful personal account of what happens when a key sense becomes compromised. Sacks would seem to be the ideal doctor: observant but accepting, thorough but tender, training his full attention on one patient at a time. For the patient's benefit and for ours, he once again illuminates every uncanny detail in this latest.

Schlessinger, Laura Dr. Surviving a Shark Attack (on Land) Building on the principles developed during her long career as a licensed therapist, Dr. Laura shows readers how to survive enemies — traitors, backstabbers, and saboteurs — at work and at home. For the first time, she shares her own personal experiences with betrayal, humiliation, and pain, which have led her to powerful and thought-provoking ideas and strategies. Here, she gives readers the emotional defenses they need for overcoming the worst life can throw at them.

Sheehy, Gail Passages in Caregiving No one really expects it, but at some time or another, just about everyone has been — or will be — responsible for giving care for a sustained period, to someone close to them. Sheehy knows firsthand the trials, fears, and rare joys of caregiving. She looked after her late husband Clay while he battled cancer for more than a decade. She identifies eight crucial stages of caregiving and offers insight for successfully navigating each one. With empathy and intelligence, backed by formidable research, and interspersed with poignant stories of successful caregivers, ―Passages in Caregiving‖ provides invaluable advice and guidance from the first signs of trouble. Sheehy answers the most important questions: How serious is it? What do I ask the doctor? How will this be paid for? What are our options? At the same time she offers new tips and strategies that you won't find anywhere else. Most important, however, she points out that you don't have to be alone in this process. Included are countless resources and names of advocacy groups that are there to help even the most complicated of situations, many of which are woefully underutilized.

Thomas, Marlo Growing Up Laughing Some know her as the star of the 1960s TV show ―That Girl,‖ or perhaps as the major fund-raiser for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Thomas, author of five bestselling books, here focuses on a role she's had her entire life: daughter. Laughter was the soundtrack for Thomas's formative years in 1950‘s Beverly Hills. Her father, comedian Danny Thomas, regularly had funny friends — including Bob Hope, Sid Caesar, and George Burns — over to the family home. The author, actress, feminist, and philanthropist shares fond memories of learning from these comedy luminaries, and of being a Hollywood kid. Chronicling her path from childhood to adulthood; particularly interesting tidbits in her book include her meeting and marrying Phil Donahue, and becoming friends with Gloria Steinem. But more than a well-written memoir, this book includes interviews with comedy powerhouses galore, from Tina Fey to , and Ben and Jerry Stiller. On the whole, this book offers a delightful firsthand look at how comedy has become integral to American culture — and the way it's shaped one woman's colorful life.
