SUMMIT IN

the autumn of 1938, Germany’s reichsführer, Heinrich Himmler, is growing frustrated at the British using their regional power in India to block the passage of an SS expedition to Tibet. Determined to spite them, he plots to steal something the British hold dear and have failed for the seventh time that spring to achieve—a first summit of Mount Everest. Seventy years later, seasoned mountain guide Neil Quinn’s ninth visit to the top of the world’s highest mountain, this time in charge of the sixteen-year-old son of a Long Island billionaire, begins to unravel. As a desperate fight for their lives begins in the freezing air high above Tibet, Quinn stumbles across a clue to a story that challenges everything he thinks he knows about the great mountain.

When the bitter aftermath of Quinn’s disastrous climb turns to violent tragedy in Kathmandu, his discovery pushes him into a relentless journey that takes him from the dangerous heights of Everest to the equally treacherous margins of a new Europe, where history hungers to repeat itself.

“Breathtaking and chilling…Summit really takes you up there.” —RHYS JONES, EVEREST CLIMBER

“A captivating debut novel that combines grand storytelling with a thorough knowledge of climbing. Harry Farthing is a compelling new literary voice.” —SUSAN SLOATE, BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF FORWARD TO CAMELOT

HELL DIVERS

M

ore than two centuries after World War III poisoned the planet, the final bastion of humanity lives on massive airships circling the globe in search for a habitable area to call home. Aging and outdated, most of the ships plummeted back to earth long ago. Enter the Hell Divers—men and women who risk their lives by diving to the surface to scavenge for parts that keep their homes in the air. When one of the two surviving airships is damaged in an electrical storm, a Hell Diver team is deployed to a hostile zone called Hades. But there’s something down there that’s far worse than the mutated creatures discovered on dives in the past—something that threatens the fragile future of humanity.

With a protagonist as original as The Bridge’s Saga Norén, part one in the Project trilogy is as addictive as the Bourne novels.

The Queen of the Night By Alexander Chee Read by Lisa Flanagan From a ferociously talented writer, praised as “the fire, in my opinion. And the light,” by Junot Diaz, comes a blazing portrait of one woman’s rise from courtesan to world-renowned diva.

“A luminous tale of power and passion…The story dazzles and surprises right up until the final page.”

—J. Courtney Sullivan, author of The Engagements

“Richly researched, ornately plotted, this story demands, and repays, close attention.”

—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

Lilliet Berne is a sensation of the Paris Opera, a legendary soprano with every accolade except an original role, every singer’s chance at immortality. When one is finally offered to her, she realizes with alarm that the libretto is based on a hidden piece of her past. Only four could have betrayed her: one is dead, one loves her, one wants to own her. And one, she hopes, never thinks of her at all. As she looks for clues, she recalls her life as an orphan who went to Europe and was swept into the world of Second Empire Paris. The Queen of the Night follows Lilliet as she gets closer to the truth behind the mysterious opera and the role that could secure her reputation—or destroy her with the secrets it reveals. ALEXANDER CHEE was born in Rhode Island and raised in South Korea, Guam, and Maine. His first novel, Edinburgh, won numerous awards. Chee was also honored as one of Out magazine’s 100 Most Influential People of the Year. He has taught writing at several colleges and currently lives in New York City.

“I believe that by far the science fiction author who will have the greatest effect on the science fiction world, and the world as a whole, is Ben Bova.”

—Ray Bradbury, praise for the author

“Bova deftly captures the excitement of scientific discovery and planetary exploration.”

—Publishers Weekly, praise for the author

Here are tales of star-faring adventure, peril, and drama. Here are journeys into the mind-bending landscapes of virtual worlds and alternate realities. Here you’ll also find stories of humanity’s astounding future on Earth, on Mars, and in the solar system beyond—stories that always get the science right. And Bova’s gathering of deeply realized, totally human characters are the heroic, brave, tricky, sometimes dastardly engineers, astronauts, corporate magnates, politicians, and scientists who will make these futures possible—and those who often find that the problems of tomorrow are always linked to human values and human failings which are as timeless as the stars. BEN BOVA, six-time Hugo Award winner, is the author of over one hundred futuristic novels and nonfiction books. He received the Lifetime Achievement Award of the Arthur C. Clarke Foundation in 2005, and his novel Titan won the John W. Campbell Memorial Award for the best science fiction novel of 2006.

Welcome to Quinn, Montana, population: 956. A town where nearly all of the volunteer firemen are named Jim, where the Dirty Shame—the only bar in town—refuses to serve mixed drinks (too much work), where the locals hate the newcomers (then again, they hate the locals, too), and where the town softball team has never even come close to having a winning season. Until now. Rachel Flood has snuck back into town after leaving behind a trail of chaos nine years prior. She’s here to make amends, but nobody wants to hear it, especially her mother, Laverna. But with the help of a local boy named Jake and a little soul-searching, she just might make things right. RICHARD FIFIELD earned his MFA from Sarah Lawrence College in upstate New York. For the past twenty years he has worked as a social worker for adults with intellectual disabilities, while volunteering as a creative writing teacher in Missoula, Montana.

Negotiator The Life and Career of James B. Donovan By Philip J. Bigger Read by Robertson Dean The first and only biography of intrepid attorney James B. Donovan, who was recruited by the CIA during the Cold War to broker nearimpossible negotiations—now the basis for Steven Spielberg’s Cold War film, Bridge of Spies Charming, bold, and good-humored, James Donovan was a larger-thanlife figure who led a fascinating and magnificently varied career, primarily as a negotiator on behalf of prisoners. During his service in the United States Navy in World War II, he was charged with collecting and recording evidence of Nazi atrocities, a role that then transitioned into his becoming a prosecutor at the Nuremberg trials. In 1957 he became involved with defending the captured Russian spy Rudolf Abel, and then rapidly became embroiled in a much larger international political melee as he attempted to secure the release of the captured American U-2 pilot Francis Gary Powers. PHILIP J. BIGGER worked as an administrator in probation and pretrial services for the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York.

Jihad Academy The Rise of Islamic State By Nicolas Hénin Translated by Martin Makinson Read by Malcolm Hillgartner A former Islamic State hostage and veteran Middle East journalist explores misperceptions of Islamic State and their consequences. French journalist Nicolas Hénin has reported from the front lines of conflict in the Middle East for over a decade and witnessed events leading to the rise of Islamic State. In 2013, he was captured by IS and spent ten months in captivity with James Foley and others who were beheaded soon after Hénin was released. Those barbarities and the first strikes against Islamic State prompted him to present in Jihad Academy what he knows IS to be, in contrast to ongoing misperceptions. Hénin sees Islamic State as a political entity arising out of a sense of injustice and lack of hope and as the result of the West’s inability to support Syrian democracy activists. The West sees IS only as a terrorist organization, ignoring its political message; by doing so, we act as a recruitment agent for Islamic State and overlook the greatest victims of the violence: civilians on the ground. IS will only be ultimately defeated, he argues, by the people of the region. Jihad Academy is a powerful assessment from a new voice in the debate about our role in the Middle East. NICOLAS HÉNIN, an award-winning freelance journalist reporting for the news magazine Le Point, Arte television, and Radio France, has spent more than a decade reporting from the Middle East.

Finley Ball How Two Outsiders Turned the Oakland A’s into a Dynasty and Changed the Game Forever By Nancy Finley Read by Pam Ward Nancy Finley tells the true story of how her father, Carl, and his cousin Charlie brought the losing A’s to Oakland and made them a baseball dynasty by changing the way the game was played.

“Nancy Finley reveals the inner workings of one of baseball’s greatest franchises and offers insights into the creative genius of one of its most colorful owners.”

—Brian Kingman, pitcher, Oakland A’s, 1978–1982

“Finley almost single-handedly saved baseball in the early 1970s with his showmanship and charisma, and, ultimately, his love and understanding of the game.”

—Jay Darby, lawyer and sportswriter

When Charlie Finley bought the A’s in 1960, he was an outsider to the game—an insurance businessman with a larger-than-life personality. He brought his cousin Carl on as his right-hand man, moved the team from Kansas City to Oakland, and pioneered a new way to put together a winning team. With legendary players like Reggie Jackson, Catfish Hunter, and Vida Blue, the Finleys’ Oakland A’s won three straight World Series and riveted the nation. Now Carl Finley’s daughter Nancy reveals the whole story behind her family’s winning legacy and how the success of the ’70s Oakland A’s changed the game of baseball. NANCY FINLEY was two years old when her father, Carl, joined his cousin Charlie Finley as head of the Athletics organization, and she spent her teen years helping out the team whenever she could. She has been interviewed in many sports outlets about the history of the A’s and her personal recollections.

I Had to Survive How a Plane Crash in the Andes Inspired My Calling to Save Lives By Dr. Roberto Canessa and Pablo Vierci Translated by Carlos Frías Read by Thom Rivera, Traber Burns, Elijah Alexander, Neil Shah, Hillary Huber, Kyla Garcia, Tavia Gilbert, and Emily Woo Zeller I Had to Survive offers a gripping and heartrending recollection of the harrowing brink-of-death experience that propelled survivor Roberto Canessa to become one of the world’s leading pediatric cardiologists.

“In this inspirational book, [Canessa] recounts in breathtaking detail his harrowing journey across a harsh, uninhabited region of the Andes…Makes for riveting reading.”

—Publishers Weekly

“Readably inspiring from beginning to end.”

—Kirkus Reviews

On October 13, 1972, a Uruguayan Air Force plane carrying members of the “Old Christians” rugby team—and many of their friends and family members—crashed into the Andes Mountains. As he tended to his wounded teammates amid the devastating carnage of the wreck, rugby player Roberto Canessa, a second-year medical student at the time, realized that no one on earth was luckier: he was alive—and for that, he should be eternally grateful. As the starving group struggled beyond the limits of what seemed possible, Canessa played a key role in safeguarding his fellow survivors, eventually trekking with a companion across the hostile mountain range for help. DR. ROBERTO CANESSA made history in December of 1972 for being one of sixteen young rugby players who endured months of severe cold, injuries, starvation, and isolation after their plane crashed into the snowcapped Andes—an event that inspired the film Alive. He is a pediatric cardiologist at the Italian Hospital of Montevideo and recognized worldwide for his work, particularly with newborn patients and patients in utero.

City of Secrets By Stewart O’Nan Read by Edoardo Ballerini From master storyteller Stewart O’Nan comes a timely moral thriller about the Jewish underground resistance in Jerusalem after the Second World War.

“O’Nan’s City of Secrets will keep you up all night reading —what a beautifully crafted novel.”

—Alan Furst, New York Times bestselling author

“I’ve been a Stewart O’Nan fan since his very first novel, and never more so than with his latest. In City of Secrets, O’Nan takes his mastery of language and depth of character in a fresh direction: a richly nuanced suspense novel, set in an immensely intriguing post-war Jerusalem. A remarkable book.”

—Chris Pavone, author of The Expats

“Finely wrought and morally complex, O’Nan’s considerable story-telling powers are masterfully deployed here. With deft strokes, he evokes the tensions and tragedies of Mandate Jerusalem, riven then as now by the fault lines of community and conscience.”

—Geraldine Brooks, Pulitzer Prize-winning author

In 1945, tens of thousands of Jewish refugees settle in Palestine but are hunted as illegals by the British authorities. They rely on the underground Independent Israel movement to take them in. Brand is a lone survivor trying to regain himself after losing everyone he loved. As a taxi driver with a new identity—he learns to navigate Jerusalem as well as the overlapping and often deadly loyalties of the resistance. He falls in love with fellow survivor Eva, reclaims his faith, and commits himself to the revolution, accepting dangerous secret missions from their leader, Asher. By the time Brand understands the truth, it’s too late, and the tragedy that ensues changes history.

“Smart, snappy writing.”

—New York Times Book Review on The List

“Offering a…thoughtful focus on femininity, sisterhood, relationships, eating disorders, and what it means to be singled out, Vivian proves that beauty and ugliness aren’t always a matter of appearance.”

—Publishers Weekly (starred review) on The List

What would you do if your town was sliding underwater and everyone was ordered to pack up and leave? Keeley Hewitt and her friends decide to go out with a bang. The goal is to make the most of every minute they still have together. And for Keeley, that means taking one last shot at the boy she’s loved forever. There’s a weird sort of bravery that comes from knowing there’s nothing left to lose. You might do things you normally wouldn’t. Or say things you shouldn’t. The reward almost always outweighs the risk. Almost. It’s the end of Aberdeen, but the beginning of Keeley’s first love story. It just might not turn out the way she thought. Because it’s not always clear what’s worth fighting for and what you should let become a memory. SIOBHAN VIVIAN is the author of the young-adult novel The List, as well as Not That Kind of Girl, Same Difference, and A Little Friendly Advice, and the Burn for Burn trilogy. A former editor for Alloy Entertainment, she received her MFA in creative writing at the New School. She teaches creative writing at the University of Pittsburgh.

As Ember and Riley hide and regroup to fight another day, Garret journeys alone to the United Kingdom, birthplace of the ancient and secret Order of St. George, to spy on his former brothers and uncover deadly and shocking secrets that will shake the foundations of dragons and dragon-slayers alike.

The Lost A Search for Six of Six Million By Daniel Mendelsohn Read by Bronson Pinchot Mendelsohn, raised in a family haunted by the disappearance of six relatives during the Holocaust, sets out to find any eyewitnesses of his relatives’ fates.

“An excellent memoir…brings to life the struggle of an entire generation.”

—People (4 stars)

“Beautiful and powerfully moving…As suspenseful as a detective thriller and as difficult to put down.”

—O, The Oprah Magazine

The Lost begins as the story of a boy whose family was haunted by the disappearance of relatives during the Holocaust. Decades later, spurred by the discovery of a cache of desperate letters written to his grandfather in 1939 and tantalized by fragmentary tales of a terrible betrayal, Daniel Mendelsohn sets out to find the remaining eyewitnesses to his relatives’ fates. That quest takes him to a dozen countries on four continents and forces him to confront the wrenching discrepancies between the histories we live and the stories we tell. And it finally leads him back to the small Ukrainian town where his family’s story began and where the decades-old mystery is solved. DANIEL MENDELSOHN, a frequent contributor to the New York Review of Books and the New Yorker, is the author of the New York Times and international bestseller The Lost: A Search for Six of Six Million. He teaches at Bard College in New York.

Born in Germany to two driven musicians, Rob Spillman’s childhood was spent among the West Berlin cognoscenti in a city two hundred miles behind the Iron Curtain. After an unsettled youth moving between divorced parents, Spillman would eventually find his way to New York City, only to abandon it to return to Berlin just months after the wall came down. Twenty-five and newly married, Spillman and his wife, the writer Elissa Schappell, moved to the anarchic streets of East Berlin in search of the bohemian lifestyle of their idols. But Spillman soon discovered he was chasing the one thing that had always eluded him: a place, or person, to call home. ROB SPILLMAN is editor of Tin House magazine and editorial advisor of Tin House Books. He was previously the monthly book columnist for Details magazine and is a contributor of book reviews and essays to Salon and Bookforum.

Jaye wakes up in the hospital, disoriented and beset by a slippery morphing of reality into something else. She repeatedly sees a boy who she feels like she knows—but that’s impossible. Determined to get back to school and back to A Midsummer Night’s Dream, in which she’s starring, she lies to her sister, her mom, and her doctors—she’s fine, she says. But on her first day back, she takes a seat in class next to the mysterious boy. Queasy with anxiety, Jaye realizes this boy is, in fact, real. Caught between this fascinating, empathetic new kid and her childhood friend turned recent love interest, Jaye begins to notice unnerving similarities between her circumstances and those of some of Shakespeare’s most famous plays. JACQUELINE WEST, a two-time Pushcart nominee for poetry, is also the author of the kid- and critic-beloved middle-grade the Books of Elsewhere series.

The Dark Root Book 6 • Read by Tom Taylorson A brutal home invasion shocks Brattleboro’s small Asian community, but no one is talking. Undeterred, Joe Gunther digs deeper and discovers a cross-border smuggling route carrying drugs, contraband, and illegal aliens into and out of Canada.

A small girl brings Joe Gunther a bird’s nest—made partially of human hair. In the search to match a body—and an identity—to the hair’s owner, Joe comes across an unexplained death, a grisly murder, and a sudden disappearance. All seem to be entangled in a puzzling web of municipal corruption, blackmail, and industrial espionage. A shell-shocked World War II veteran nicknamed the Ragman may hold the key to it all—but only if Joe can get him to talk before the murderer strikes again.

But as Gunther doggedly pursues the truth, what begins as a seemingly open-and-shut case starts to look more and more like a frame job, and he soon finds himself feeling around the edges of a statewide drug distribution network. As always, Vermont itself is a major character in Mayor’s writing, with Bellows Falls standing in for any number of slowly decaying, once-proud mill towns. JULY 1, 2016

But it’s so very … tidy. So very … professional. Then the CIA calls, inviting Gunther down to Washington for some friendly “assistance” with his case. Suddenly he’s caught up in a shadowy game of cross and double-cross—manipulated by cynical, cold warriors who don’t seem to have gotten the memo—and Gunther soon realizes that he’s a pawn both sides are willing to sacrifice.

This classic text on the subject of election, or predestination, is essential for any Christian’s library but especially that of the pastor or clergyman. The grand truth of election takes us back to the beginning of all things, before the fall of man, before Christ, and before the gospel.

Mortal Fall A Novel of Suspense By Christine Carbo Reader to be announced A wildlife biologist’s shocking death leads to chilling discoveries in Christine Carbo’s haunting and compelling new crime novel set in the wilds of Glacier National Park.

“An intense and thoroughly enjoyable thrill ride…a tour de force of suspense.”

—Linda Castillo, New York Times bestselling author, on The Wild Inside

“Fans of Nevada Barr will love this tense, atmospheric thriller with its majestic Glacier National Park setting.”

—Deborah Crombie, New York Times bestselling author, on The Wild Inside

Glacier National Park police officer Monty Harris finds Paul “Wolfie” Sedgewick’s fatal fall from the sheer cliffs incomprehensible. Wolfie was an experienced and highly regarded wildlife biologist who knew all too well the perils that Glacier’s treacherous terrain presents—and how to avoid them. Monty senses that something isn’t right, so when whispers of irresponsibility or suicide emerge, tarnishing Wolfie’s reputation, Monty dedicates himself to uncovering the truth. As he delves further into an investigation that goes deeper than he ever imagined, he wrestles with the demons of his past, which lead back to harsh betrayals he thought he’d buried long ago. And then a second body is found. CHRISTINE CARBO grew up in Florida until she moved to Montana when she was twelve. After earning a pilot’s license, pursuing various adventures in Norway, and a brief stint as a flight attendant, she got an MA in English and linguistics and taught writing, linguistics, and literature courses at a community college. She still teaches, in a vastly different realm, as the owner of a Pilates studio.

Roots The Saga of an American Family By Alex Haley Introduction by Michael Eric Dyson Read by Avery Brooks

tv SERIES

“Brooks’ rich, deep baritone brings a deliberate, dignified, at times almost reverential interpretation to his reading, but never so reserved as to forget that at its heart this is a story about people and family.”

—Publishers Weekly (starred review)

“This book is an act of love, and it is this which makes it haunting.”

—New York Times

It begins with a birth in an African village in 1750, and ends two centuries later at a funeral in Arkansas. And in that time span, an unforgettable cast of men, women, and children come to life. When Alex Haley was growing up in Tennessee, his grandmother used to tell him stories about their family, stories that went way back to a man she called “the African” who was taken aboard a slave ship bound for Colonial America. As an adult, Alex spent twelve years searching for documentation that might authenticate what his grandmother had told him. In an astonishing feat of genealogical detective work, he discovered the name of “the African”—Kunta Kinte—as well as the exact location of the village in West Africa from where he was abducted in 1767. Roots is based on the facts of his ancestry, and the six generations of people who descended from Kunta Kinte.

At that time, his mother was determined to find healing for his disabled older brother. And so the family embarked on an Easter pilgrimage to an ancient shrine. The two brothers then found their lives were tangled up with a glamorous couple staying at a nearby house, and they became involved in more troubling rites. Smith feels he is the only one who knows the truth, and he must bear the burden of his knowledge—no matter the cost.

Haunted by the murder and the secrets she unravels, she is under the harrow—distressed and in danger.

In the woods outside the town of Willnot, the remains of several people have suddenly been discovered, unnerving the community and unsettling Dr. Lamar Hale, the town’s all-purpose general practitioner, surgeon, and conscience. At the same time, Bobby Lowndes—a man being followed by the FBI—mysteriously reappears in his hometown at Hale’s door. Over the ensuing months, the daily dramas Hale faces as he tends to his town and to his partner, Richard, collide with the inexplicable vagaries of life in Willnot. And when a gunshot aimed at Lowndes critically wounds Richard, Hale’s world is truly upended. JAMES SALLIS has published more than a dozen novels, several books of musicology, multiple collections of short stories, poems, and essays, and more. His works have been short-listed for the Anthony, Nebula, Edgar, Shamus, and Gold Dagger awards. Sallis is best known for his novel Drive, which was made into an award-winning motion picture.

—Publishers Weekly (starred and boxed review)

Even as Muhammad lay dying, the battle over who would take control of the new Islamic nation had begun, beginning a succession crisis marked by power grabs, assassination, political intrigue, and passionate faith. Soon Islam was embroiled in civil war, pitting its founder’s controversial wife Aisha against his son-in-law Ali and shattering Muhammad’s ideal of unity. After the Prophet, combining meticulous research with compelling storytelling, explores the volatile intersection of religion and politics, psychology and culture, and history and current events. It is an indispensable guide to the depth and power of the Shia–Sunni split.

“Only an immensely promising young writer could bestow such grace on such troubled characters.”

Lions is set on the high plains of Colorado, a nearly deserted place, steeped in local legends and sparse in population. The Walkers have been settled on its barren terrain for generations—a simple family in a town otherwise still taken in by stories of bigger, better, brighter. When a traveling stranger appears one day, his unsettling presence sets off a chain reaction that will change the fates of everyone he encounters, beginning with the Walkers. A story of awakening, Lions is an exquisite novel that explores ambition and an American obsession with selfimprovement, the responsibilities we have to ourselves and each other, and the everyday illusions that pass for a life worth living.

Absalom’s Daughters A Novel By Suzanne Feldman Reader to be announced Two half sisters, one black and one white, embark on a risky road trip through the 1950s Jim Crow South in this spellbinding story of identity and race.

“Sharp-eyed and witty, Absalom’s Daughters is a delightful recipe consisting of one part girls’ road trip, one part family saga, and one part good old-fashioned Southern yarn. The path from Mississippi to Virginia is full of danger and Jim Crow bigotry, but Cassie and Judith are the perfect heroines to take it on. An absorbing read, full of heart!”

—Suzanne Rindell, author of The Other Typist

Self-educated and brown skinned, Cassie works in her grandmother’s laundry in rural Mississippi. Illiterate and white, Judith dreams of life as a big-city radio star. These teenaged girls are half sisters. And when they catch wind of their wayward father’s inheritance coming down in Virginia, they decide to claim what’s rightly theirs. In an old junker of a car, with a frying pan, a ham, and a few dollars hidden in a shoe, they set off through the American Deep South of the 1950s, a bewitchingly beautiful landscape as well as one bedeviled by racial striving and violence. Like Thelma & Louise meets God Help the Child, this is an unforgettable comingof-age story.

In sixteenth-century Germany, thousands of peasants revolt against harsh treatment by their aristocratic overlords. Agnes, daughter of one such overlord, is not a typical sixteenth-century girl. She refuses to wear dresses and spends more time with her pet falcon than in attracting suitors. In fact, there is only one man who interests her: childhood friend Mathis, whom she can never marry because of his lowly birth. Things change when a rogue knight attacks Agnes, Mathis shoots him to save her life, and the two go on the run together, into the midst of the raging peasants’ war. Then Agnes’ falcon finds a mysterious ring, and she begins having strange dreams that lead the two to revelations about their place in the world and in the emerging German states.

TWA 800 The Crash, the Cover-Up, and the Conspiracy By Jack Cashill Reader to be announced What really happened to TWA 800? On the twentieth anniversary of the crash, author Jack Cashill reveals shocking new evidence.

“Thoroughly brave, unsparingly clear-eyed, and absolutely entertaining.”

—Ben Shapiro, New York Times bestselling author, on What’s the Matter with California?

“Cashill and Sanders’ reconstruction of the investigation into the July 1996 explosion of TWA Flight 800 is a real page-turner.”

—Publishers Weekly on First Strike

TWA Flight 800 crashed into the Atlantic shortly after takeoff from JFK Airport on July 17, 1996, killing all 230 passengers on board. Although initial reports suggested a terrorist attack, FBI and NTSB investigators blamed a fuel-tank explosion. But skeptics have long questioned the official story, and new evidence has surfaced that suggests a widespread conspiracy. In TWA 800, historian Jack Cashill introduces new documents and testimonies that reveal the shocking true chain of events, from the disastrous crash to the high-level decision to create a cover story and the attempts to silence anyone who dared speak the truth. JACK CASHILL is a weekly contributor to WorldNetDaily and the executive editor of Ingram’s. He has written for Fortune, the Washington Post, the Weekly Standard, and the Wall Street Journal. His previous titles include Snake Handling in Mid-America, Sucker Punch, and Popes and Bankers.

The Autobiography by Miles Davis, with Quincy Troupe Read by Dion Graham

by Jay Anson Read by Ray Porter

In December 1975, the Lutz family moved into their new home on suburban Long Island, where, one year earlier, Ronald DeFeo had murdered his entire family. Twenty-eight days later, the entire Lutz family fled in terror. This is the true story of a house haunted by psychic phenomena almost too terrible to describe.

Miles: The Autobiography, like Miles Davis himself, holds nothing back. For the first time Miles talks about his five-year silence, his drug problem and how he overcame it, the racism he encountered, and the women in his life. But above all, Miles talks about music and musicians, including the legends he has played with: Bird, Dizzy, Monk, Trane, Mingus, and many others.

ROOTS PREMIERS MAY 30, 2016 Starring Adam Fergus, Newton James Hippolyte Jr., and Malachi Kirby ROOTS

THE WHITE LIONESS

The Saga of an American Family By Alex Haley Read by Avery Brooks

The Kurt Wallander Mysteries, Book 3 by Henning Mankell Translated by Laurie Thompson Read by Dick Hill

It begins with a birth in an African village in 1750, and ends two centuries later at a funeral in Arkansas. And in that time span, an unforgettable cast of men, women, and children come to life.

The execution-style murder of a Swedish housewife looks like a simple case to Detective Kurt Wallander, who follows a lead on a stalker. But instead Wallander uncovers something more complex and dangerous, an assassination plot that gets him involved with the secret police and a ruthless foreign agent.

Edge of Dark

Book 1 Reader to be announced What if a society banished its worst nightmare to the far edge of the solar system, destined to struggle for the barest living? What if that life thrived and became far more than anyone ever expected, yearning to return? What if it didn’t share your moral compass? The Glittering Edge duology describes the clash of forces when an advanced society that has filled a solar system with flesh-and-blood life meets the near-AIs it banished long ago. This is a story of love for the wild and natural life on a colony planet, a complex adventure set in powerful space stations, and the desire to live completely—whether you are made of flesh and bone or silicon and carbon fiber.

Doug Perkins, his partner Gerry, and their cat, Pandora, have one job to do: spin gaffes into gold. But this cozy little London PR agency is about to be involved in a disastrous affaire dentaire. Endicott Zayle, dentist to the rich and famous—as well as to Doug and Gerry—has a problem of royal proportions. He just killed a beautiful woman with an experimental anesthetic. Or did he? By the time Doug arrives on the scene, the corpse is up and walking around—and someone else is dead instead. With Endicott losing his grip, and a line of women all claiming personal interest in the deceased, scandal is afoot. And so is a second dose of murder.

A summer in England sounds like a great idea for the Harper family—and the house exchange makes it so affordable. Now they’ve swapped their New England home for a lovely cottage in a village near London. Why, the house even comes with a cat, a shy marmalade named Esmond. Everything seems purrfect … until someone tries to kill Mr. Harper. Now the genteel village feels sinister, the snooty next-door neighbor is acting suspicious, and the house is filled with its real owner’s secrets. Numerous attempts on Mr. Harper’s life convince his wife that they can’t pussyfoot around. They need to investigate, starting with what the mousy orange cat knows.

“Inventive in its muted, muffled presentation of terror, which throbs like a heartbeat throughout the novel’s core.”—Chicago Tribune

A Dying Light in Corduba

The Marcus Didius Falco Mysteries, Book 8 Read by Simon Prebble

Surprisingly, nobody is poisoned at the Society of Olive Oil Producers banquet—the attempted murder of Rome’s chief spy occurs immediately afterward. Suspicion falls, quick as the Italian night, on the dinner’s sinuous dancer, a lady who has already left for Corduba, Spain. Naturally, Marcus Didius Falco, the Philip Marlowe of Roman detectives, is dispatched to follow her. But he has pledged to stay with Helena, his pregnant, patrician wife, until she gives birth. Caught between Scylla and Charybdis, Falco makes what may be a fatal mistake: he brings Helena with him to a terra incognita of olives and intrigue, where a dies irae and a remorseless killer wait.

Two for the Lions

The Marcus Didius Falco Mysteries, Book 10 Reader to be announced Marcus Didius Falco gets another murder to investigate when someone kills Leonidas, the Empire’s official executioner. Feared by all, Leonidas administered justice with a swift, sure blow. Then he ate the offender. Now this king of beasts lies stabbed to death in his cage. Sniffing around for clues, Falco is led into the rowdy, decadent world of gladiators and bestiarii, fighters who specialize in contests against animals. It’s dark and dangerous in the tunnels under the arena—and even blacker in the desperate souls of those who must kill or be killed. Yet no one has a motive for slaughtering a lion after hours. The unexpected slaying of the most glamorous gladiator in the city is another matter.

Satan’s Lullaby

The Medieval Mysteries, Book 4 Read by Wanda McCaddon

The Medieval Mysteries, Book 10 Reader to be announced

The Medieval Mysteries, Book 11 Reader to be announced

It is May 1272, and Eleanor of Tyndal, recovering from a near-fatal winter fever, journeys to Amesbury Priory. But a murderous ghost now haunts Amesbury, and Sister Beatrice, Eleanor’s aunt, shows an uncharacteristic hesitancy about taking charge of any investigation.

In the spring of 1277, Prioress Eleanor goes on a pilgrimage to a famous East Anglian shrine. Lurking in this sacred place, however, is an assassin hoping to murder a king. Can Prioress Eleanor and Brother Thomas succeed in exposing the assassin, or will they become his next victim?

In 1278 Prioress Eleanor faces dark times when the head of her order sends a priest from France to inspect all aspects of Tyndal Priory, from its morals to its roofs—including whether Prioress Eleanor is unfit for her position. The situation turns calamitous when the priest’s sick clerk dies.
