Pages : 744
Book Description
In the 1970s, Rian makes a choice outside the norm. Not only is she a woman with a husband and children, but she also becomes one of the first female police officers. In her quest for excitement and fulfillment, she climbs a mountain one step at a time through a mire of prejudice, egos, and archaic attitudes. Great Mystery is inspired by the author’s own life experiences and tells the story of Rian McCarren Clark, a woman police officer who battles for the innocents. She fights for the victims of a judicial system that often re-victimized them and left families in tatters. This portrays the life of a hero who broke the barriers of a man’s world in law enforcement. As she gets older, she is left with memories of victims of violence, greed, decadence, and perversion. She also finds love, loss, and the fulfillment of family, all while caring for the abused and neglected.

Book Description
When I wake up with the sun in my eyes the morning after my daughter's birthday party, I know something is very wrong. I go straight to her room but feel a surge of panic when I see an empty bed. Downstairs everything is totally quiet, and the front door is locked. Why didn't I hear her scream? Who took our little girl? My husband says I've been struggling since Skylar was born and that sometimes I forget things. But I remember every moment of my daughter's party-including him locking the door after our family and friends left. Yes, we both had a drink and I slept heavily but I know I would have heard my child cry. A good mother always does. My therapist says I need to stand up for myself. She wants me to confront my husband about the woman I heard him talking to the other night when he thought I was asleep. And about the child's toy that I found that does not belong to Skylar. Is he hiding something? But as the hours race by I soon realize I was totally wrong about everything that happened that night. I thought I'd put my past behind me long ago but I was wrong. All I know is this: I'll do whatever it takes to save my child. Will you believe me? A heart-pounding, unbelievably twisty psychological thriller that will have you sleeping with the light on!

My Sister, My Love
Author: Joyce Carol Oates
Publisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 0061806668
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 596
Book Description
New York Times bestselling author of The Falls, Blonde, and We Were the Mulvaneys, Joyce Carol Oates returns with a dark, wry, satirical tale—inspired by an unsolved American true-crime mystery. "Dysfunctional families are all alike. Ditto 'survivors.'" So begins the unexpurgated first-person narrative of nineteen-year-old Skyler Rampike, the only surviving child of an "infamous" American family. A decade ago the Rampikes were destroyed by the murder of Skyler's six-year-old ice-skating champion sister, Bliss, and the media scrutiny that followed. Part investigation into the unsolved murder; part elegy for the lost Bliss and for Skyler's own lost childhood; and part corrosively funny exposé of the pretensions of upper-middle-class American suburbia, this captivating novel explores with unexpected sympathy and subtlety the intimate lives of those who dwell in Tabloid Hell. Likely to be Joyce Carol Oates's most controversial novel to date, as well as her most boldly satirical, this unconventional work of fiction is sure to be recognized as a classic exploration of the tragic interface between private life and the perilous life of "celebrity." In My Sister, My Love: The Intimate Story of Skyler Rampike, the incomparable Oates once again mines the depths of the sinister yet comic malaise at the heart of our contemporary culture.
