Let me tell you a little-known secret. Being turned into a vampire doesn't necessarily guarantee freedom from fear or danger. All of that silly happy-ever-after gibberish about immortality isn't all it's cracked up to be either. And furthermore, living forever in a state of bliss and contentedness is actually a blatant lie. I wish someone had told me. Elizabeth Amarande Rose Bertrand's first day as a vampire was definitely not what she'd expected, what with nearly losing her beloved twin sister. And after a short reprieve and a warm welcome to Ravenswynd, her new home in England, it gets even worse. Her immortal life takes on a whole new twist and she finds herself living in a perpetual state of fear. Faced with unsettling rumors and revelations, her dreams become real-life nightmares. Suddenly finding herself up to her neck in a mind-bending abduction, Elizabeth believes that death itself would be better than being bound to someone she despises - bound by ancient law - for all eternity. The old saying is only too true: There actually are fates worse than death - even when you're a vampire. And once again...there will be blood. (This is Book Two in the Ravenswynd Series)

For Elizabeth and Emrys, an enchanting trip to the Hebrides brings not only magnificent sights, but another prophecy, and as always it comes in the form of a mystifying, rhyming riddle. Although somewhat disturbing, Lizzy is sidetracked by urgent questions regarding her own visions, but later, while visiting the mysterious Callanish Stones, Sibelle's chilling words come back to her: "One final slash brings forth the flood...Two feet will stand upon the blood." Elizabeth is filled with an eerie dreadful sense of foreboding; when will this happen, will they know ahead of time, will someone actually die? Back home, life takes on a normal flow, and the prophecy is all but forgotten. As time passes, Elizabeth begins to wonder if Sibelle's prophecy was incorrect... But she'd forgotten one thing: Sibelle is never wrong... and sometimes evil returns when you least expect it.

If you could go back in time and change things...would you? Author, David Russell once said, "The hardest thing in life to learn is which bridge to cross and which to burn." But my dilemma was learning from which bridge to jump. No one with half a brain would ever believe that jumping off a bridge could in any way, shape, or form, turn out to be a good idea. And I certainly would never encourage anyone else to take a potentially fatal plunge into a deep and rushing river. However, I am thoroughly convinced that taking that leap myself - might just turn out to be the best decision of my life. Timing...timing is everything. The impact jolts me like an iron fist. The water is arctic-cold. All of my muscles clench. I am pulled down - hard and fast and deep. Trapped in the tentacles of the swift current, the dark water becomes my mortal enemy. Now fighting for my life, I'm sure I'm going to drown... Just before the darkness takes over, I wonder... Did it work?

Sara: I’ve been known to lose things now and then. Most often it’s something small - like earrings, sunglasses, or keys. Occasionally a lone sock vanishes without a trace. Eventually these things will be found, replaced or forgotten. But some things that disappear are people. And apparently - I’m one of them. What do you do when you’re finally found, but you didn’t even know you were missing? Jack: I’ve lost my share of things. Most were nonessential, like pocket change, gloves, and an umbrella. I once lost my favorite old fishing hat when it blew right off my head and out to sea. But some things that disappear are irreplaceable; perhaps the most valuable thing in your life - like your wife. What do you do if you’re fortunate enough to finally find her, but she has absolutely no memory of you? Song of Memory is a heartwarming story about two lonely people who, after nearly twenty years of separation, attempt to piece together exactly what happened to rip them apart.

Imagine what it might be like after taking a nice hot shower, to open the curtain and find yourself in another dimension in time and space. Everything and everyone you ever knew – is gone. That is exactly what happened to me - Ripley Tremont. One minute I’m drying off with a soft, fluffy towel, the next – I’ve traveled far into the future and end up in a strange new world. Worse yet, this particular planet remains locked in a state of perpetual winter - and not like the wimpy earth winters I was used to either. Being outside for more than a few minutes is downright hazardous, unless you’re into becoming an ice sculpture. Which I sort of was, for a while… As if being transported to a frozen world wasn’t bad enough, I’ve learned that I’m residing within the only livable place on the planet, and, it just happens to be a prison! The guards are androids that seem far too human, and some of the convicts are sinister extraterrestrial beings, but all the weirdness aside – I guess things could be worse – at least I’m alive. There are a couple of humans here, brothers no less, and they’re as different as night and day. Strangely enough, they’ve told me I need to write a book about my experience here so we can send it back in time. So here it is… By the way, the future is amazing! Wish you were here!

In this #1 New York Times bestseller in Sue Grafton's Alphabet series, private investigator Kinsey Millhone has her hands full when a job that should be easy money takes a turn for the worse. Reba Lafferty was a daughter of privilege, the only child of an adoring father. Nord Lafferty was already in his fifties when Reba was born, and he could deny her nothing. Over the years, he quietly settled her many scrapes with the law, but wasn't there for her when she was convicted of embezzlement and sent to the California Institution for Women. Now, at thirty-two, she's about to be paroled, having served twenty-two months of a four-year sentence. Her father wants to be sure Reba stays straight, stays home and away from the drugs, the booze, and the gamblers... It seems a straightforward assignment for Kinsey: babysit Reba until she settles in, make sure she follows all the niceties of her parole. Maybe a week’s work. Nothing untoward—the woman seems remorseful and friendly. And the money is good. But life is never that simple, and Reba is out of prison less than twenty-four hours when one of her old crowd comes circling round...

"Neiman reclaims the vocabulary of morality--good and evil, heroism and nobility--as a lingua franca for the twenty-first century. In constructing a framework for taking responsible action on today's urgent questions, [she] reaches back to the eighteenth century, retrieving a series of values--happiness, reason, reverence, and hope--held high by Enlightenment thinkers. In this ... updated edition, Neiman reflects on how the moral language of the 2008 presidential campaign has opened up new political and cultural possibilities in America and beyond"--Back cover.
