Book Description
As a child, genius Yury Shinault witnessed the brutal murders of her mother and stepfather before being kidnapped along with—and eventually separated from—her identical triplet sisters. Raised in seclusion by a military couple, she has only fragmented memories of the murders and her sisters, but she is highly trained in a number of grueling military survival and combat skills. While she searches for her sisters and attempts to piece together her past, she joins an elite FBI investigative team. Her colleagues are quickly drawn into her troubled world as, unbeknownst to Yury or her new friends, her quest to bring her mother’s killer to justice overlaps with an ongoing FBI investigation into the disappearances of several young women whose bodies were never found. As the threads are woven together, a net is created to capture a sociopath...placing Yury, her sisters and their friends and colleagues in great danger.

The Patchwork Human
Author: Peter Luykx
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476686122
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 285
Book Description
Life began about four billion years ago on our planet. Like an old patchwork quilt, evolution stitched the human being together from parts of ancient species now long extinct. Like any species, humans have hundreds or even thousands of traits that have been passed down through time. The evolutionary age of our different traits can be told from how widely distributed they are among today's living creatures. The book aims to explain some human traits and how we--as social, sexual, language-obsessed technological apes--evolved into our own modern species. Combining hard science with philosophical thought, this work aims to explain where humans have come from, and where we are going. Free of complicated jargon, it breaks down the concept of evolution starting with the human body's most basic component--our cells. Building from there, chapters explore which traits became inherited over evolutionary time, ultimately projecting what could be next for our species.

Pages : 449
Book Description
#1 New York Times bestselling author John Sandford continues his phenomenal Prey series—and “for those who think they know everything they need to know about Lucas Davenport, [Field of Prey] proves them wrong…” (Huffington Post) On the night of the fifth of July, in Red Wing, Minnesota, a boy smelled death in a cornfield off an abandoned farm. When the county deputy took a look, he found a body stuffed in a cistern. Then another. And another. By the time Lucas Davenport was called in, it was fifteen and counting, the victims killed over just as many summers, regular as clockwork. How could this happen in a town so small without anyone noticing? And with the latest victim only two weeks dead, Davenport knows the killer is still at work, still close by. Most likely someone the folks of Red Wing see every day. Won’t they be surprised.

Book Description
Katrin Rodgerr, ex-Space Navy, was perfectly happy as Third Officer on a tramp freighter in the Outer Sectors, until the day she and everyone on board the ship were kidnapped by alien scientists to become subjects of gruesome experiments. Far away from home or help, Katrin does her best to bolster the other prisoners’ morale and look for a way to escape. Until one day she’s chosen for an experiment of another sort – given to a pack of alien supersoldiers as a prospective breeder. Tratus, senior enforcer of the Tzibir pack, never expected to find his mate, much less to meet her among the human prison population of the labs. But there she is and there’s no denying the instincts. Despite his Alpha’s objections, Tratus manages to convince the alien scientists to give Katrin to him and he vows to protect her. Deeply unhappy with the way his leader runs the pack as he disobeys all their goddess’s commandments and refuses to ally with other Badari packs to fight the scientists who created them, Tratus plots a revolt. Despite herself Katrin is drawn to the giant humanoid warrior with alien predator DNA who treats her so respectfully. His scales and other differences from human males only make him more attractive in his own way. But the Alpha distrusts her and Tratus, and time is running out for them both… Can Tratus defeat the Alpha leading his pack to inevitable doom? Can he and Katrin survive the consequences and find their way to claiming each other as true mates or must he let her go? Author’s Note: Mature situations. One scene of attempted assault. This is the seventeenth book in the Badari Warriors world (the fourteenth in the numbered main series) and each novel or novella has a satisfying Happy for Now ending for the hero and heroine, not a cliffhanger. Genetically engineered soldiers of the far future, the Badari were created by alien enemies to fight humans. The Tzibir are an offshoot of the Badari, but with reptilian DNA. The scientists kidnapped an entire human colony from the Sectors to use as subjects in twisted experiments…two Badari packs and the humans made common cause, rebelled and escaped the labs. Now they live side by side in a sanctuary valley protected by a powerful Artificial Intelligence, and wage unceasing war on the aliens, although the Tzibir Alpha refused to join the war and they have no communication with the other Badari. The Tzibir live in the desert area of the planet. Some old Badari friends reappear in the course of this novel, which does advance the series arc. Some overarching issues do remain unresolved in each book since this is an ongoing series but romance always wins the day in my novels!

Book Description
Chem lab supervisor Darliss Johnson has overseen the development of an artificial virus which avoids people but turns inanimate materials into purple mush. It spreads throughout their business complex and into the land around, forcing all to evacuate. CEO Clive Jarvis gives the order upon returning from abroad to save his company. He works closely with Darliss and her first assistant Lasaro in a desperate attempt to literally save the world itself. With humorous foresight, Lasaro often drops clues about the compatibility between his two bosses, though Clive dates a starlet, one Miss D’Amour. When she comes to their evacuation site on a plane bringing supplies and a U. S. senator, we see that her impracticality does not mesh with Clive’s rational nature. On the other hand, the heroic trio’s assiduous efforts pay off. They use a life-force recording Las made of himself and Darliss to control the virus. Clive dances with Darliss on the land renewed.

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
Detective Ida Mae Rollins searches for the identity of a homicide victim who was dismembered and dumped along a road in southeastern Wisconsin. Her subsequent search for the killer leads the diminutive, spiky-haired blonde investigator on a body strewn trail that stretches from Wisconsin into Iowa and ultimately into southern Illinois, Arkansas and Missouri. Ida, as she prefers to be called, gets a lucky break while grocery shopping during a visit to her mother’s farm. She spots a man she had believed to be murdered and follows him across the state line. What follows is a fast-paced discovery of drug dealing involving the man and his partner, a strikingly pretty pathological liar of a woman who detests men and her own mother. But is there anything linking the woman to men who were murdered in Wisconsin, Iowa and Missouri? Ida digs deep for physical evidence even as her own boss, Sheriff Peter Clark, wants action taken against the man who reported what he believed to be mere littering.
