From the national bestselling author of The Lost Wife.

The Mask Carver’s Son Alyson Richman 1890. Yamamoto Kiyoki is a Japanese art student, dreaming of studying in Paris with the inspiring and vibrant Impressionist painters. Yamamoto Ryusei is Kiyoki’s father. Ryusei’s art, carving intricate masks for traditional Japanese theater, has been his refuge from loneliness since the death of his beloved wife, and he is revered as the most inspired artist of his kind. He expects his only son to honor the traditions of his family and his country, not to be seduced by Western ideas of what is beautiful. But what is a father to do when his son’s path is not what he had planned? And how can a son honor his father, and yet fulfill his own destiny?

Little Island Katharine Britton When Grace Little, proprieter of the Little Island Inn off the coast of Maine, finds a cryptic note left behind by her late mother, she believes its final words, “flowers, by the water, have fun!” are funeral instructions.

Berkley Caliber Trade Paperback September 2013

“All the elements of a great spy thriller.” —Douglas Preston and Mario Spezi, authors of The Monster of Florence

the axmann conspiracy The Nazi Plan for a Fourth Reich and How the U.S. Army Defeated It

Scott Andrew Selby Berlin, 1945: Artur Axmann—a trusted member of Hitler’s inner circle and leader of the Hitler Youth—witnessed the Führer commit suicide. But he would not let the Reich die with its leader. Evading capture, and with access to remnants of the regime’s wealth, Axmann had enough followers to reestablish the Nazi party in Alliedoccupied Germany, with himself as dictator. Until U.S. Army Counter Intelligence Corps Officer Jack Hunter was sent undercover to stop him. The Axmann Conspiracy is the true story of the Nazi threat that continued in the wake of World War II, the espionage that defeated it, and two fascinating men whose lives forever altered the course of history.

“Reads like a thriller…as timely as it is chilling and engrossing.”

Charlaine Harris and Christopher Golden with illustrations by Don Kramer She calls herself Calexa Rose Dunhill—names taken from the grim surroundings where she awoke, bruised and bloody, with no memory of who she is, how she got there, or who left her for dead. She has made the cemetery her home, living in a crypt, and avoiding human contact. But Calexa can’t hide from the dead—and because she can see spirits—they can’t hide from her.

Final

Cove r To Com e

Then one night, Calexa spies a group of teenagers vandalizing a grave— and watches in horror as they commit murder. As the victim’s spirit rises from her body, it flows into Calexa, overwhelming her mind with visions and memories not her own. Now Calexa must make a decision—continue to hide to protect herself— or come forward to bring justice to the sad spirit who has reached out to her for help...

undressing mr. darcy Karen Doornebos Forty-year-old American social media master Vanessa Roberts lives her thoroughly modern life with aplomb. So when her elderly Jane Austen–centric aunt needs her to take on the public relations for Julian Chancellor—a very private man from England who’s written a book called My Year as Mr. Darcy—Vanessa rankles at the thought. Until she finally sees Julian take off his tight breeches for his Undressing Mr. Darcy show, an educational “striptease” to promote his book. But can this oldfashioned man find his way to her heart without so much as a GPS? Praise for Definitely Not Mr. Darcy: “Entertainment in its purest form, a skirt-flying tumble of a story, and an excellent, lighthearted way to while away a quiet afternoon.” —New York Journal of Books “A lively and engaging tale of a modern woman faced with the amusingly inelegant reality of Regency life.” —Abigail Reynolds, author of Mr. Darcy’s Refuge

“Simon Read’s riveting tale of the Royal Air Force’s manhunt for the Gestapo perpetrators of the cold-blooded murder of fifty unarmed Allied escapees will touch your soul.”*

Human Game The True Story of the “Great Escape” Murders and the Hunt for the Gestapo Gunmen

Simon Read The mass breakout of seventy-six Allied airmen from the infamous Stalag Luft III became one of the greatest tales of World War II, immortalized in the film The Great Escape. But where the movie ends, another incredible story begins. Fifty recaptured airmen were taken to killing fields and shot on the direct orders of Hitler. When the killings came to light after the war, Churchill’s government dispatched a team of military police, led by squadron leader Francis P. McKenna, to pick up a trail long gone cold. Amid the chaos of post-WWII Germany, McKenna’s three-year manhunt brought twenty-one Gestapo killers to justice. In Human Game, Simon Read delivers a meticulously researched account of this often overlooked saga of hard-won justice.

“Gut-wrenching.”

He’s burned in the inferno...He’s endured endless rapture... Now, he will finally know redemption. Professor Gabriel Emerson stood in the doorway of his study, hands in his pockets, gazing on his wife with no little heat. His tall, athletic form was striking, as were his rugged features and sapphire eyes.

He’d met her when she was seventeen (ten years his junior), and fallen in love with her. They’d been separated by time and circumstances, not least of which was his indulgent lifestyle.

Yet, heaven smiled on them. She became his graduate student in Toronto six years later and they’d rekindled their affection, marrying a year and a half after that. Almost six months into their marriage he loved her even more than before. He envied the very air she breathed.

He’d waited long enough for what he was about to do. It was possible she’d need to be seduced...

But Gabriel prided himself in his expertise at seduction...

”Meister’s wonderful novel delivers the wit, ingenuity and elegiac sass worthy of the Algonquin Round Table’s most quoted member.”*

Farewell, dorothy parker Ellen Meister When meek movie critic Violet Epps visits the Algonquin Hotel, famous for its 1920s literary legacy, she gets more than she anticipated when her idol Dorothy Parker’s feisty spirit materializes. An irreverent ghost with problems of her own, Mrs. Parker helps Violet face her fears, becoming in turn mentor and tormentor…and ultimately, friend. Wickedly funny and surprisingly poignant, Farewell, Dorothy Parker perfectly reimagines one of America’s most iconic voices in a touching and unforgettable tale. “Meister skillfully translates the rapier-like wit of the Algonquin Round Table to modern-day New York...[with] pathos, nuanced characters, plenty of rapid-fire one-liners, and a heart-rending denouement.”


“Funny yet tender…resurrects the iconic wit of the literary legend...A breezy and engaging writing style.” —Library Journal

The Vanishing Thief A Victorian Bookshop Mystery

Kate Parker On the gaslit streets of Victorian London, no one is safe...not even the thieves. Georgia Fenchurch appears to be an unassuming antiquarian bookseller, but the life she leads is as exciting as any adventure novel.

When a frantic woman comes to Georgia claiming that her neighbor, Nicholas Drake, has been abducted by the notorious Duke of Blackford, Georgia and the Archivist Society agree to take the case. But Drake is no innocent—he is a thief who has been blackmailing many of the leading members of London society. To find Drake and discover who is behind his abduction, Georgia and her beautiful assistant, Emma, will have to leave the cozy confines of their bookshop and infiltrate the inner circles of the upper crust—with the help of the dashing but dubious Duke of Blackford himself.

starhawk A Priscilla Hutchins Novel

Jack McDevitt Priscilla “Hutch” Hutchins has finally realized her lifelong dream— she’s completed a nerve-bending qualification flight for a pilot’s license. Unfortunately there’s not a lot of demand for interstellar pilots.

So he, along with his friends, heads for the Bastion which had once been the headquarters of a band of raiders that long ago held him and his parents captive. He hopes to find clues that will help him discover who his parents were and why he is being sought by Valdemar’s enemies. But what Mags finds is not what anyone had expected.

DAW Hardcover November 2013

The first in a bold new fantasy trilogy set in a realm full of treachery, secrets, and powerful magic.

Masks E.C. Blake Mara Holdfast is fast approaching her fifteenth birthday and her Masking ceremony. Once she receives her Mask, Mara will be recognized as an adult and never go unMasked in public again. Gifted with magical abilities, she will take her place as an apprentice to her father, the Autarch’s Master Maskmaker. But something goes horribly wrong on the day of the Masking, and instead of celebrating, Mara is torn away from her parents, imprisoned, and consigned to a wagon bound for the mines. Cut off from everything and everyone she knows, not even her Gift can show Mara the future that awaits her—a future that may see her slaving in the mines, recruited to a rebel cause, or trained to use her powers at the Autarch’s command...
