I returned from the City about three o'clock on that May afternoon pretty well disgusted with life. I had been three months in the Old Country, and was fed up with it. If anyone had told me a year ago that I would have been feeling like that I should have laughed at him; but there was the fact. The weather made me liverish, the talk of the ordinary Englishman made me sick, I couldn't get enough exercise, and the amusements of London seemed as flat as soda-water that has been standing in the sun. 'Richard Hannay,' I kept telling myself, 'you have got into the wrong ditch, my friend, and you had better climb out.'

Bride of Pendorric

Favel Farrington meets Roc Pendorric on the idyllic Mediterranean island of Capri, where she was raised and lives with her father.  Roc sweeps her off her feet, taking her from her home by an emerald sea to the ancient family home of the Pendorrics, in Cornwall. His sister and her family await them with open arms, welcoming young Favel. She is the much anticipated Bride of Pendorric, a name that amuses and flatters her.  The castle is beautiful in its way, but the atmosphere is foreboding. Roc’s twin nieces begin watching her carefully; even the stones in the courtyard seem to have eyes.  On the walls hang portraits of two other Brides of Pendorric—one of them Roc’s mother—who died both young and tragically. Favel’s fear increases as Roc seems to be growing more and more distant. Has her courtship and marriage been just a deception?  Soon Favel can no longer dismiss as accidents the strange things happening to her. Someone is trying to kill her and she must confront the very real dangers that surround her.

CRAIG, Kit

Jerry Kennedy has been aptly described by his ex-wife as the classiest sleazy criminal lawyer inBoston. Now, Jerry must defend the man that no one else will: Billy Ryan. The longtime commissioner of Public Works has cut one shady deal too many. Even Jerry harbors no illusions about the mans corruption. If they didnt have Billy for selling the apple to the serpent who peddled it to Eve, he figured, it was because the serpent refused to testify against him. Professional courtesy and all that. Jerry also knows that the government can always get a public official if it really wants toparticularly when a plea-bargaining crooked state legislator named Jack Bonaventre is in good voice. The drama that follows in and around the courthouse is vintage Higgins, suffused with the stylish prose and sparkling dialogue for which he is known.

Guardian Angel (G. K. Hall Audio Books Series)

Paretsky, Sara.

'A tough, elegant, alarming novel. Stone writes superbly about the sea, about fear and loneliness, about life in extremis ...In  Outerbridge Reach, he has produced what I believe will come to be recognized as a quintessential novel of the Reagan era, along with Updike's Rabbit at Rest and Don DeLillo's Mao II ' John Banville, Guardian 'Stone has already written two of the best novels of the past twenty years, Dog Soldiers and A Flag for Sunrise. Outerbridge Reach makes it three ...He is a great storyteller, whose plots move as relentlessly as those of the best thrillers, yet his prose is elegant and full of literary allusions' A. Alvarez, Sunday Times 'Stone's fifth and finest novel is about going to sea and the difficulty of trying to find a way back again ...if one half of Stone's characters live their secret, interior lives apart from society, then the other half are desperately looking for their own ways out: drugs, murder, revolution, betrayal, infidelity ...and, in the case of Owen Browne in Outerbridge Reach, sailing off the map of the world and mind altogether' Scot Bradfield, Independent 'Its themes are contemporary and touched with cruelty ...The toughness of Stone's novels has been readily accepted as on the surface; but there's an inner toughness of judgement that, when one stubs one's toe on it, is even more impressive' Robert M. Adams, New York Review of Books
