Book Description
A woman he can never have. On the cusp of forty, advertising artist Charley Morton was comfortable, if not content, with his life. The married father of two had grown to accept the monotony of the daily grind. All that changed when a chance encounter with a gorgeous new coworker turned Morton’s quiet suburban world upside down. Jeri Adams is young, beautiful, and the target of every bachelor in the office. Morton knows he shouldn’t be thinking about Jeri, let alone feeling jealous. He has a wife and a family to consider. All he can do is dream of Jeri. But the dream is not enough. As attraction twists into obsession, Morton finds himself willing to do anything—abandon his wife and children, sabotage his career, perhaps even murder a rival—in order to win Jeri’s affection. He just can’t let her go...even if it destroys him.

The Moving Finger
Author: Agatha Christie

ISBN: 9780006172697
Category : Detective and mystery stories
Languages : en
Pages : 217
Book Description
Lymstock was a town with more that its share of shameful secrets – a town where even a sudden outbreak of anonymous hate-mail caused only a minor stir. But all of that changed when one of the recipients, Mrs Symmington, committed suicide. Her final note said 'I can't go on'. Only Miss Marple questioned the coroner's verdict of suicide. Was this the work of a poison-pen? Or of a poisoner? Agatha Christie was born in Torquay in 1890 and became, quite simply, the best-selling novelist in history. She wrote 79 crime mysteries and collections, and saw her work translated into more languages than Shakespeare. Her enduring success, enhanced by many film and TV adaptations, is a tribute to the timeless appeal of her characters and the unequalled ingenuity of her plots. "Beyond all doubt the puzzle in 'The Moving Finger' is fit for experts."THE TIMES

Omar Khayyam Poems
Author: Omar Khayyam
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1666715522
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 44
Book Description
The poems attributed to Omar Khayyam have a universal and timeless philosophical theme: life is a meaningful journey even if brief and uncertain. They inspire an unconstrained free-thinking mindset and a wise realization that guides thinking persons: it is impossible to see the absolute truth, as the universe has its own reality that remains largely hidden, and that one must think and act accordingly. This book presents a selection of Khayyam's poems in their original Persian language along with their English translations in a faithful and modern version. By relying only on the original Persian version of Khayyam's poems, and using the author's own body of literary and linguistic knowledge, this book presents a modern translation of Omar Khayyam's poems since Edward Fitzgerald's Rubaiyat in 1859.

Book Description
A first-contact novel written from an alien perspective by the #1 New York Times–bestselling author of Star Wars: The Force Awakens and Star Trek Into Darkness. Ryo is one of the Thranx, a race of social arthropods. From his larval years to now, his life has been normal, though his love of learning and insatiable curiosity set him apart. He has settled into his work as an agriculture specialist and is premated to a lovely female. Yet Ryo still feels something is missing from his life, and when he heroically defends his colony from the Thranx’s reptilian nemesis, Ryo gets a taste of excitement that’s hard to forget. Then his premate shares a garbled message from her starship-captain cousin—one that hints at the discovery of a completely new, completely alien space-going intelligence. Even when the captain backtracks and denounces the experience as a deep-space nightmare, Ryo can’t let it go. He becomes obsessed, leaving his colony and family behind to chase rumors of a murderous alien race, horrible beyond imagining. And when he finally makes it to an isolated military outpost rumored to harbor the captured aliens, he comes face-to-face with . . . humanity.
