Jo Nesbø –

A 14-year old girl is raped at one of the Salvation Army summer camps. Twelve years later, at a Christmas concert in a square in Oslo, a Salvation Army soldier is executed by a man in the crowd. A press photographer has caught a suspect on one of the photos of the concert. Beate Lønn, the identification expert, is confused by how the face can change from one photo to the next. Inspector Harry Hole’s search for the faceless man takes place on the seamy side of the city, among those who seek eternal – or just momentary – redemption. And the gunman has not yet completed his mission.

Clell Hodges and Mark Lane had been hired to tame the wilderness. Engineers both, they had been brought to California’s Imperial Valley to wrest an irrigation system from the grip of a fearful adversary: the Colorado River. Wayward and turbulent, the mighty Colorado held the key to survival for all settlers along the Valley, and neither Clell nor Mark was alone in recognizing what prizes there were to be had if the River could be successfully tapped.

San Francisco business interests, greedy landowners, and the national government—all knew that the fortunes of the region would rise or fall with the current of the Colorado. What neither Clell nor Mark suspected—until one agonizing moment—was that their lives depended on it as well.

A heart-warming and utterly charming story about empathy, hope, and letting go. Weekends with Daisy shows us how loving a dog can make us all a little more human. A deceptively simple but powerful account of family bonds, friendship, and the special relationship we have with dogs.
This memoir chronicles Sharron’s year co-parenting Daisy with Keith, Daisy’s other trainer. As Sharron and Keith develop a relationship she likens to “divorced parents handing over the kids”, she becomes curious about Keith’s life story. When Sharron uncovers a tragic event from his past, she realizes she must take a lesson from Daisy and “think like a dog” and react to circumstances in the present, not the past.

Captain Rickert was tough. Flatly, he told the new recruits in the Texas Rangers: “You will be paid forty dollars a month. You will provide your own clothes, guns, ammunition, horse, saddle, and you’ll feed yourself.” Right there, a sane man would figure he might as well quit now. Practically any job would be better than what the Rangers offered. Except that what they offered was not a job—it was a way of life. It really didn’t matter how much money went with it, or didn’t—because what being in the Rangers meant to a man you couldn’t buy with money. It was something that Jim Temple, after seven thankless years as a deputy sheriff, was mighty short of—pride in his work, self-respect and a driving urge to get out and really test himself. He had picked the right outfit.

Book 4 in the Women of Lancaster County series, tells the stories of young Amish women as they explore their roots, connect with family, and discover true love. Izzy Mueller is an exceptional listener and gifted caregiver. She’s also a talented seamstress. As the young woman sits with her elderly patients, she quietly sews as they share their stories. She’s content with her life until circumstances reconnect her with someone she once loved. Zed Bayer, a Mennonite, is not what her family is hoping for in a spouse, and his creative interest in film-making is definitely at odds with her Amish upbringing.
As Izzy is swept up again in Zed and renews her friendship with his sister, Ella, she begins to ask questions about her own life—her creative longings and historical interests, her relationships and desire for romance, and most importantly, her faith. What is the path God has for her? Can she learn from the past of both her family’s and Zed’s—or must she forge a completely different future of her own?
