The first in a powerfully unsettling trilogy by the master of the psychothriller, Sebastian Fitzek. First he kills the mother, then he kidnaps the child. The grieving father is given 45 hours to search. If the child isn't found, they die, captive. The press call him the Eye Collector. Because the horror doesn't end with the murders. Every body discovered has had the left eye removed. When evidence implicates police officer turned journalist Alexander Zorbach, who has championed the case against the Eye Collector, he becomes the main suspect. Meanwhile, a mysterious witness comes forward. Alina Gregoriev, a blind physiotherapist, claims to be able to see into the lives of her patients simply by touching their body. She says she treated the Eye Collector yesterday... Perfect for fans of Adrian McKinty, John Marrs and Chris Carter. Reviews for Sebastian Fitzek 'Fitzek's thrillers are breathtaking, full of wild twists' Harlan Coben 'Sebastian Fitzek is simply amazing. I truly hope that one day I will be able to create suspense and plot twists in the way only Sebastian can. A true Master of his craft' Chris Carter 'Fitzek is without question one of the crime world's most evocative storytellers' Karin Slaughter

This book is a visual and written exploration of the constructed photograph as created in the last decades of the 20th century and the first decades of the 21st century. It documents a collection built by Frazier King, that was exhibited by FotoFest International in the Collector's Eye II Exhibition. An essay by Mr. King's essay reflects on 76 images of a variety of constructed photographs included in the collection. The narrative explores how Mr. King's own work with this type of image has resulted in a collection of constructed photographs and explains the varied nature of this category of image. The reader gets a personal and inside glimpse of the dynamics of photographic reviews such as FotoFest Meeting Place and how artists, collectors and curators interact in this venue and the relationships they form. In addition to an essay by Mr. King this volume includes an essay by Wendy Watriss, co-founder and Senior Artistic Advisor of FotoFest, on the significance of collecting and the role of the collector. The third essay is by Madeline Yale Preston, an independent curator based in London, who addresses the role of the collector as curator and the historical evolution and importance of the constructed photograph.

In this astonishingly assured, exquisitely crafted debut collection, Anthony Doerr takes readers from the African coast to the suburbs of Ohio, from sideshow pageantry to harsh wilderness survival, charting a vast and varied emotional landscape. Like the best storytellers, Doerr explores the human condition in all its manifestations: metamorphosis, grief, fractured relationships, and slowly mending hearts. Most dazzling is Doerr's gift for conjuring nature in both its beautiful abundance and crushing power. Some of his characters contend with tremendous hardship; some discover unique gifts; all are united by their ultimate deference to the mysteries of their respective landscapes.
