New York Times bestselling author Maya Banks walks the sizzling knife-edge between danger and desire as one woman with a killer in her shadow finds protective rapture with the two men with a need to save her... The hottest thing about a man in uniform is imagining him out of it. For gorgeous Jessie Callahan this was all part of the ritual—a flirty little game indulged in with the two sexy-as-sin detectives she always saw at the same bar with the same naughty little glint in their eyes. Then one night, the game changed. Rick and Tru took it one step further and made a tantalizing proposition. To their surprise, Jessie said yes. To both of them. It was a night of total abandon none of them would ever forget. But with it, a risk none of them could have imagined. Because when Jessie suddenly becomes the target of a serial killer, the game changes once again. And Jessie’s two detectives will risk everything to have her back in their arms—and in their bed...

A New York Review Books Original The Soviet writer Andrey Platonov saw much of his work suppressed or censored in his lifetime. In recent decades, however, these lost works have reemerged, and the eerie poetry and poignant humanity of Platonov’s vision have become ever more clear. For Nadezhda Mandelstam and Joseph Brodsky, Platonov was the writer who most profoundly registered the spiritual shock of revolution. For a new generation of innovative post-Soviet Russian writers he figures as a daring explorer of word and world, the master of what has been called “alternative realism.” Depicting a devastated world that is both terrifying and sublime, Platonov is, without doubt, a universal writer who is as solitary and haunting as Kafka. This volume gathers eight works that show Platonov at his tenderest, warmest, and subtlest. Among them are “The Return,” about an officer’s difficult homecoming at the end of World War II, described by Penelope Fitzgerald as one of “three great works of Russian literature of the millennium”; “The River Potudan,” a moving account of a troubled marriage; and the title novella, the extraordinary tale of a young man unexpectedly transformed by his return to his Asian birthplace, where he finds his people deprived not only of food and dwelling, but of memory and speech. This prizewinning English translation is the first to be based on the newly available uncensored texts of Platonov’s short fiction.
