Book excerpt: New England’s sexagenarian sleuths are back to solve a reality-show murder in this “fast-paced mystery with two unforgettable leading ladies” (Booklist Online). Desperate TV producer Barry Stromstein’s career depends on his latest brainstorm: “Antiques Roadshow meets The Hunger Games on the set of Gilmore Girls.” When he enlists Connecticut antiques columnist Lil Campbell for help, he unexpectedly hits pay dirt. Lil’s irrepressibly charming partner Ada Strauss is the perfect woman to host it. Now, making it a success is all in the execution . . . until Barry’s impossible-to-please boss, Lenore Parks, is gunned down in her dressing room. Who’d want to kill television’s most powerful and popular lifestyle guru? Her wild-child daughter? Her practically perfect son? Try anyone who ever suffered Lenore’s wrath. To narrow down a growing network of suspects, Lil and Ada go behind the scenes to dig into the superstar’s private life. And for a woman as beautiful as Lenore, her secrets are very ugly. And for Lil and Ada, very dangerous.

Book excerpt: Fed up with receiving poorly-written "Twilight" knockoffs, editor Shannon Wade did what any reasonable person would: she started killing the worst of the would-be authors sending them to her! Meanwhile, a stuttering, overweight vampire has targeted those who portray vampires in a light he deems unrealistic. Not exactly novel but terribly graphic, Done To Death follows Andy and Shannon's paths towards a collision as darkly funny as it is ridiculously violent.

Book excerpt: It is lost time that concerns Edgar, not lost life. He is a man of small patience and large practicality. He’s a Swede. The two are travelling north to the Henning Mankell writing residence. In Susan’s application, she described her project as a reworking of a play, a two act that had been given a “workshop production” in New York. But that was before Henning Mankell died. All relationships have unwritten rules that define the shared but singular experience of being one half of a couple; the constant rub and friction that manifests itself in long awkward silences or bouts of fiery discontent. Susan and Edgar carry the weight of their individual pasts, expectations, and compromises differently. They exist in uncomfortable togetherness, the confidence of their sexual harmony diminished with age, carefully avoiding the reality of physical loneliness. Susan is a dreamer, a writer obsessed with the mystique of her Scandi writing hero, Henning Mankell; an American whose outsider status is a daily reminder that she will never really fit in, with Edgar, or in Sweden. Edgar is a pragmatist, analytical and practical; a Swede that lives by the rules, and the unspoken rules that he curates to fit his own purpose and beliefs. His self-assurance is deep; it’s in the language he speaks, the land he lives in, in his skin. But what happens when a pilgrimage to Mankell’s revered writing residence takes an unexpected turn, amplifying the differences between them, the silent bitterness between Edward and Susan that lingers just below the surface? Edgar and Susan: Done to Death is a short story that explores the fragility and often absurd pettiness of human relationships, the concepts of autonomy, freedom, and human rights.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times bestselling coauthor of Sex at Dawn explores the ways in which “progress” has perverted the way we live—how we eat, learn, feel, mate, parent, communicate, work, and die—in this “engaging, extensively documented, well-organized, and thought-provoking” (Booklist) book. Most of us have instinctive evidence the world is ending—balmy December days, face-to-face conversation replaced with heads-to-screens zomboidism, a world at constant war, a political system in disarray. We hear some myths and lies so frequently that they feel like truths: Civilization is humankind’s greatest accomplishment. Progress is undeniable. Count your blessings. You’re lucky to be alive here and now. Well, maybe we are and maybe we aren’t. Civilized to Death counters the idea that progress is inherently good, arguing that the “progress” defining our age is analogous to an advancing disease. Prehistoric life, of course, was not without serious dangers and disadvantages. Many babies died in infancy. A broken bone, infected wound, snakebite, or difficult pregnancy could be life-threatening. But ultimately, Christopher Ryan questions, were these pre-civilized dangers more murderous than modern scourges, such as car accidents, cancers, cardiovascular disease, and a technologically prolonged dying process? Civilized to Death “will make you see our so-called progress in a whole new light” (Book Riot) and adds to the timely conversation that “the way we have been living is no longer sustainable, at least as long as we want to the earth to outlive us” (Psychology Today). Ryan makes the claim that we should start looking backwards to find our way into a better future.

Lee Bailey On December 11, 1966, a mysterious assassin shot Henry Stockton to death, set his house on fire, and left the scene without a trace. A year later, when a woman was found brutally killed, shreds of evidence suggested a connection between the two murders. In the Palliko-Stockton trial, prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi offered a brilliant summation that synthesized for the jury the many inferences and shades of meaning in the testimony, fitting all the pieces together in a mosaic of guilt. But will the jury be persuaded?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revised edition of the best-selling memoir that has been read by over a million people worldwide with translations in 29 languages. After too many years of unfulfilling work, Bronnie Ware began searching for a job with heart. Despite having no formal qualifications or previous experience in the field, she found herself working in palliative care. During the time she spent tending to those who were dying, Bronnie's life was transformed. Later, she wrote an Internet blog post, outlining the most common regrets that the people she had cared for had expressed. The post gained so much momentum that it was viewed by more than three million readers worldwide in its first year. At the request of many, Bronnie subsequently wrote a book, The Top Five Regrets of the Dying, to share her story. Bronnie has had a colourful and diverse life. By applying the lessons of those nearing their death to her own life, she developed an understanding that it is possible for everyone, if we make the right choices, to die with peace of mind. In this revised edition of the best-selling memoir that has been read by over a million people worldwide, with translations in 29 languages, Bronnie expresses how significant these regrets are and how we can positively address these issues while we still have the time. The Top Five Regrets of the Dying gives hope for a better world. It is a courageous, life-changing book that will leave you feeling more compassionate and inspired to live the life you are truly here to live.
