Just move in for a week while Char was on vacation, feed the dogs, and all would be right in the world. When Char’s brother escapes from prison and shows up at the house, though, her easy two week vacation in the woods turns into a kidnapping lock down. Striker doesn’t seem much different than he had when she’d fallen head over heels in love with him as a kid. And when he explains to her that he didn’t kill anyone, she finds she believes him, and she wants to help prove he is innocent. When people and bears start showing up in their back yard, and Millie thinks she sees a man turn into a bear, her life turns into a spiral of uncertainty— especially when Striker turns into a wolf right in front of her to save her life. The world is nowhere as simple as she thought, and now Millie has to keep Striker’s secret, while fighting off a mob of bears trying to get to him. House sitting should come with hazard pay. SECURING WOLF MOUNTAIN With the weak truce broken, Char knows she’ll have to do the unthinkable and travel to Canada in hopes of convincing her parents to bring the pack back to Vermont to protect the homestead. Her long time friend Colin wants to come, but bringing a bear shifter into the wolf stronghold in Canada is not the best idea. That won’t stop Colin from following her, though,. The journey to save the homestead from Colin’s people will bring Char and Colin closer than either of them expected. Can a bear shifter and wolf shifter find happiness in a world where they were born instinctual enemies? Or will Colin’s presence incite the war Char is hoping to avoid? DEFENDING WOLF MOUNTAIN Bran will defend Char as her alpha no matter what, and with the war already on their doorstep, he’d need to make good on that promise, and soon. But the worst of times manages to pull people together. The last place he expected to end up was in the arms of Esther, Char’s quick witted, argumentative friend. The fire in the girl’s eyes is too much for him to bear, and soon he knows that she has to be his. The clock is ticking to an army falling down on their mountain. There is no room for distraction. But Esther is there, and she refuses to leave, which is good, because he wouldn’t let her go, anyway.

    She believed that if he could address his back problems, he’d have a better chance of a long-term recovery—but she was completely unprepared for the lengthy journey that followed.

    Being hunted... and haunted, was only the begining.

    Eventually uncovered and arrested, Boyce was convicted of espionage in Los Angeles, California, on June 20, 1977, and sentenced to forty years in a maximum-security federal penitentiary. Soon after his imprisonment, Boyce--the man prosecutors said had done more harm to the security of the United States than any Soviet agents since the Rosenbergs--escaped. Boyce was to become America's most wanted fugitive and the focus of an unprecedented, massive manhunt for eighteen months. Scores of FBI agents and U.S. Marshals sifted through hundreds of false leads. They traveled countless miles back and forth across America, to South Africa, through the isolated jungles of Central America. They were called on the carpet by Congressional committees for the often-publicized and embarassing lack of reults. Although THE FLIGHT OF THE FALCON is a thrilling chase and suspense story, it is also a fine study of character and psychological drama--the metamorphosis of an idealistic young man into a coarse and violent criminal fugitive.

    Free from her past, her tormentor, her shitty family and the even shittier odds she was given at birth.But freedom has a price, and when the young girl hell-bent on starting a new life crashes her cherry red 1989 Pontiac Bonneville on America's loneliest road, she finds out just how dear that price is.From the Bram Stoker Award nominated author of Dear Laura and White Pines comes a new novella, a searing tale of fire, revenge and redemption, a coming-of-age tale with a bite, because, let's face it... happy endings are for children, and some girls just want to watch the world burn.

    Do Angels Need Haircuts? is an extraordinary snapshot of this turning point in Reed’s career. Gathering poems, photographs and ephemera from this era (including previously unreleased audio of the 1971 St. Mark’s Church reading), and featuring a new foreword by Anne Waldman and an afterword by Laurie Anderson, this book provides a window to a little-known chapter in the life of one of the most singular and uncompromising voices in American popular culture.

    These poems are loose enough for the reader to flop down inside and stay awhile. They are plangent, personal, confessional, noisy, nostalgic, and maybe a little bit broken. They often contain boats and travel and Toronto (street names and railroad tracks, dives and parks and kitchens) because those are the sorts of things Eva H.D. is drawn to. In Rotten Perfect Mouth, readers will discover a writer with her heart on her sleeve and her hand on her pen, capturing the world around her with vibrant immediacy.

    A must-read for fans of the upcoming Walt Disney Studios film, Tomorrowland!
