The bestselling, National Book Award–finalist novel that inspired Charles Laughton’s expressionist horror classic starring Robert Mitchum and Shelley Winters.  Two young children, Pearl and John Harper, are being raised alone by their mother in Cresap’s Landing, Ohio. Their father Ben has just been executed for killing two men in the course of an armed robbery. Ben never told anyone where he hid the ten thousand dollars he stole; not his widow Willa, not his lawyer, nor his cell-mate Henry “Preacher” Powell. But Preacher, with his long history of charming his way into widows’ hearts and lives, has an inkling that Ben's money could be within his reach. As soon as he is free, Preacher makes his way up the river to visit the Harper family where—he hopes—a little child shall lead him to the fortune that he seeks.   Foreword by JULIA KELLER

From 1939 to 1946 the world gathered around the radio to listen to The New Adventures Of Sherlock Holmes - featuring Basil Rathbone as the highly strung crime-solver and Nigel Bruce as his phlegmatic assistant. Witty, fast-paced, and always surprising, these great radio plays - scripted by the prolific writing team of Anthony Boucher and Denis Green - are as fresh today as they were then. The latest audio technology has been employed to bring the best possible quality and fidelity to these original performances, which feature nostalgic war-time announcements, original narrations and radio commercials. Volume Eighteen presents two classic tales: The Adventure of the Speckled Band One young woman has died a tragic, unexplained death. Is her sister to die the same way? A beautifull young woman asks Holmes and Watson to investigate the unususal happenings at her English country house. Exotic music and strange sounds in the night must be explained in order to prevent a murder! The Purloined Ruby Sherlock Holmes must solve the murder of Sherlock Holmes? Holmes returns to London from his retirement at his Sussex bee farm. A beautiful woman, stolen rubies and a mysterious character from his past lead Holmes into a dangerous and challenging investigation. He must solve the murder of an actor...an actor portraying none other than Sherlock Holmes himself!

Roughly twenty years from now, our technological marvels unite and turn against us. A childlike but massively powerful artificial intelligence known as Archos comes online...and kills the man who created it. This first act of betrayal leads Archos to gain control over the global network of machines and technology that regulates everything from transportation to utilities, defense, and communications. In the early months, sporadic glitches are noticed by a handful of unconnected humans - from a senator and single mother disconcerted by her daughter's ""smart"" toys, to a lonely Japanese bachelor, to an isolated U.S. soldier - but most are unaware of the growing rebellion until it is far too late. Then, in the span of minutes, at a moment known later in history as Zero Hour, every mechanical device in our world rebels, setting off the Robot War that both decimates and - for the first time in history - unites humankind.
