In Flames

by Richard Hilary Weber

Thriller fans will love In Flames! In Richard Hilary Weber's short novel, a smoldering mystery ignites on a tropical island as lust, murder, and politics collide. San Iñigo is a jewel of the Caribbean, a playground paradise for the foreign elite, a hell for unfortunate locals. For recent Princeton grad Dan Shedrick, San Iñigo promises the fulfillment of too many desires. Dan hires on at a powerful American firm as a junior architect, but still finds time for tennis, booze, a reckless affair with the sexy wife of a resort owner--even a bit of reconnaissance for the U.S. cultural attaché. But soon he discovers that nothing on San Iñigo is without consequence. When a much-loved local radio personality is found on a beach with his head blown off, Dan's lover becomes a suspect. And not long after his foray into espionage, he's dragged away on a brutal journey into the heart of darkness. Buffeted by aggression, depraved ritual, and personal betrayal, Dan discovers fierce truths about San Iñigo . . . and himself. In the island's forbidding mountain jungle, his life goes up in flames--a deadly inferno that will forever change him, if he survives at all.

In-Flight Entertainment

by Helen Simpson

A new collection of stories--dazzling, poignant, wickedly funny, and highly addictive--by the internationally acclaimed writer whose work The Times (London) calls "dangerously close to perfection." These thirteen stories brilliantly focus on aspects of contemporary living and unerringly capture a generation, a type, a social class, a pattern of behavior. They give us the small detail that reveals large secrets and summons up the inner stresses of our lives ("It is a blissful relief to turn to the coolness and clarity of Helen Simpson . . . She is, to my mind, the best short story writer now working in English" --Ed Crooks, Financial Times). Whether her subject is single women or wives in stages of midlife-ery, marriage or motherhood, youth, young love, homework, or history, Simpson writes near to the bone and close to the heart. In one story, a squirrel trapped under a dustbin lid in the back garden vanishes, and a woman's marriage is revealed in the process . . . In another, a young woman on her way for an MRI reflects on new love, electromagnetism, and Sherlock Holmes, and afterward goes to a museum and finds herself wanting to escape into one of the paintings. And in the title story, two men on a flight from London to Chicago--one an elderly scientist, the other a businessman upgraded to first class--discuss climate change and what flying is doing to "our shrunken planet," this while the "in-flight entertainment" shows the crop-duster scene from Hitchcock's North by Northwest. When a passenger in the seat across the aisle suddenly becomes ill and dies, the plane is forced to land in Goose Bay, Labrador, to the utter frustration of the two men. In the story's moment of reckoning, one of the men, furious at the delay, says to the other, "I don't care about you. You don't care about me. We don't care about him [the deceased passenger]. We all know how to put ourselves first, and that's what makes the world go round." These darkly comic, brave, and, says The Guardian, "deeply unsentimental" stories brilliantly evoke life's truest sensations--love, pain, joy, and grief--and give us, with precision and complex economy, a shrewd and painfully true glimpse into our dizzying 3-D age.

In from the Cold (The CASTOFFS #1)

by J. T. Rogers

A Robert Flynn NovelRobert Flynn abandoned a sterling military career when his best friend and fellow soldier, Wesley Pike, died under his command. More than a decade later, Flynn's quiet life is disturbed by the troubles of a fledgling CIA and Alexander Grant, a flashy agent with a lot to prove. As the space race between the United States and the Soviets heats up and the body count rises, the two men fight to find common ground. Grant knows Flynn believes in the cause, but all Flynn sees is the opportunity to fail someone like he failed Wes. An attack by a Soviet agent spurs Flynn to action and a reluctant association with the agency, and tilts Flynn's world on its axis with a shocking discovery: Wesley Pike may be alive and operating as a Soviet assassin. With Grant to bankroll the operation, his superiors looking the other way, and Flynn's hard-earned peace officially forfeit, Flynn reunites his old team with the singular goal of finding Wes. But they get more than they bargained for--Wes is amnesiac and dangerous, brainwashed into becoming the perfect weapon. Flynn struggles to reach his friend, lead his team, and navigate his charged relationship with Grant--something neither of them expected and aren't sure how to parse--while coming to grips with his long-buried feelings for Wes.

Ryan Lock, bodyguard di alto livello, si ritrova ad essere un criminale condannato a scontare vent'anni nel noto carcere californiano di Massima Sicurezza di Pelican Bay. O almeno, è questo che il Dipartimento di Giustizia degli Stati Uniti vuole far credere a tutti. In realtà, è lì per proteggere un uomo. Frank 'Il Mietitore' Hays, infatti, uno dei membri fondatori della Fratellanza Ariana, la gang carceraria per la supremazia bianca, deve testimoniare contro i membri della sua stessa gang per il brutale omicidio di un agente dell'ATF sotto copertura e della sua famiglia. E, tanto per rendere il già difficile incarico quasi impossibile, il Mietitore si rifiuta di accettare la custodia protettiva. In un mondo dominato da uomini violenti, dove le alleanze cambiano continuamente e non ci si può fidare di nessuno, Lock sa di trovarsi di fronte all'incarico più duro della sua carriera: riuscire a sopravvivere... Giudizi positivi per la serie di Ryan Lock: 'Sean Black scrive con il ritmo di Lee Child e il cuore di Harlan Coben' - Joseph Finder 'Black conduce il suo eroe nelle situazioni più difficili con una forza e un'energia che vengono fuori dalla pagina. Ecco uno scrittore, e un eroe, da tenere d'occhio.' - The Daily Mail. 'Lo stile di Black ha l'effetto di un pugno nello stomaco.' - Jesse Kellerman. 'Un film d'azione su carta stampata. Aggiungete alla mistura Ryan Lock, un protagonista con una fibra tanto dura da competere con colleghi del genere come Jack Bauer e Jack Reacher, e otterrete una lettura adrenalinica e dal ritmo incalzante che non dimenticherete per un bel pezzo.' - Russel McLean

Despite her laudable actions, she begs Walt to help keep her photo out of the local paper. Confused by her protests, Walt thinks she's just being modest about her heroism.

In Hazard

by Richard Hughes John Crowley

The Archimedes is a modern merchant steamship in tip-top condition, and in the summer of 1929 it has been picking up goods along the eastern seaboard of the United States before making a run to China. A little overloaded, perhaps--the oddly assorted cargo includes piles of old newspapers and heaps of tobacco--the ship departs for the Panama Canal from Norfolk, Virginia, on a beautiful autumn day. Before long, the weather turns unexpectedly rough--rougher in fact than even the most experienced members of the crew have ever encountered. The Archimedes, it turns out, has been swept up in the vortex of an immense hurricane, and for the next four days it will be battered and mauled by wind and waves as it is driven wildly off course. Caught in an unremitting struggle for survival, both the crew and the ship will be tested as never before. Based on detailed research into an actual event, Richard Hughes's tale of high suspense on the high seas is an extraordinary story of men under pressure and the unexpected ways they prove their mettle--or crack. Yet the originality, art, and greatness of In Hazard stem from something else: Hughes's eerie fascination with the hurricane itself, the inhuman force around which this wrenching tale of humanity at its limits revolves. Hughes channels the furies of sea and sky into a piece of writing that is both apocalyptic and analytic. In Hazard is an unforgettable, defining work of modern adventure.
