Book excerpt: "Strangers on a Train has lost none of its power to disturb…We will likely be reading Patricia Highsmith for the next one hundred years." —Paula Hawkins Just in time for the centennial celebration of groundbreaking noir fiction writer Patricia Highsmith comes a reissue of her propulsive, engrossing debut, Strangers on a Train, with a new introduction by best-selling author Paula Hawkins. Guy Haines and Charles Anthony Bruno are passengers on the same train. Haines is a successful architect in the midst of a divorce, Bruno a mysterious smooth-talker with a sadistic proposal: he’ll murder Haines’s wife if Haines will murder Bruno’s father. As Bruno carries out his twisted plan, Guy finds himself trapped in Highsmith’s perilous world, where, under the right circumstances, ordinary people are capable of extraordinary crimes. The inspiration for Alfred Hitchcock’s classic 1951 film, Strangers on a Train launched Highsmith’s prolific career, proving her a master at depicting the unsettling forces that tremble beneath the surface of everyday life.

After losing everyone in his world whom he loved, McNeal volunteers for a secret and dangerous experiment which propels him through space and time where he hopes that he will find a better world at the other end. Instead, he finds himself back on Earth at the advent of the Great Tribulation. His country is no more and his former home is unrecognizable. Unable to function in the great city, he escapes to the wilderness where he is taken in by a group of Christian Separatists who live outside of the regulated society. He lives among these Christians. He learns to love them and eventually becomes one of them. And as the persecution of Believers by Anti-Christ intensifies, they must all take bolder steps to try and survive as the whole world system closes in on them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Betrayed By Her Own Heart Sarah Spalding has learned to forge her own way and never to trust anyone--least of all a Yankee. But when her companion abandons her while on a train to Colorado, Sarah begrudgingly accepts the help of Whitman Kendrick--a Yankee, yes, but one with the most bewitching green eyes. Allowing Whit to be her traveling escort is one thing, taking him as a lover is another--even though she's tempted beyond reason. . . Whit Kendrick isn't quite sure what to make of the sharp-tongued, sassy woman sharing his train compartment. All he knows is that Sarah is refreshingly different from most women--and his urgent, primal attraction for her is unlike any he's experienced. Breaking down Sarah's wall of defense won't be easy. But Whit is determined to prove to Sarah that they're more alike than different--and loving each other is all they need. . . "Williamson spins a fast-paced story. . .that intrigues as it titillates." --Romantic Times on The Education of Madeline
