Book Description
Cryptic Lessons, the seventh installment of The Beadle Files, opens with LC Beadle receiving a telephone call about a crime scene in South Fork where ominous words were written in blood on the wall of a barn. State and federal investigators are drawn to the site while being hampered by a nasty snowstorm. The narrative takes meandering turns from South Fork to Buffalo to Chicago to Durango. Clyde and Patsy Lobato, ne'er-do-well con artists, continue their shameful shenanigans, much to the dismay of Josiah Grassley and company; Cynthia Sue Hopple is in her usual excitable state that comes complete with tirades and rambling commentary on happenings. In Durango, Father Francis Lynch receives a visit from a mysterious woman who, for reasons unbeknownst to him rattles his sensibilities. Truth is, Sophia Jenkins possesses a secret that has the potential to turn his world upside down--it's a complicated situation that could create insurmountable problems. The priest perseveres forward, even as Jack Whistler threatens to employ blackmail tactics. Meanwhile, in Buffalo, Mags Vitali and Eddy Olenski continue their partnership in shady endeavors. Near the end of the novel, Jack Whistler dispatches Cody Fralick to Buffalo with orders for him to connect with Magdalene Vitali and Eddy Olenski. Jack also informs him that he may be in Buffalo for a year or more.

The Emperor of All Maladies
Author: Siddhartha Mukherjee
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1439170916
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 624
Book Description
Winner of the Pulitzer Prize and a documentary from Ken Burns on PBS, this New York Times bestseller is “an extraordinary achievement” (The New Yorker)—a magnificent, profoundly humane “biography” of cancer—from its first documented appearances thousands of years ago through the epic battles in the twentieth century to cure, control, and conquer it to a radical new understanding of its essence. Physician, researcher, and award-winning science writer, Siddhartha Mukherjee examines cancer with a cellular biologist’s precision, a historian’s perspective, and a biographer’s passion. The result is an astonishingly lucid and eloquent chronicle of a disease humans have lived with—and perished from—for more than five thousand years. The story of cancer is a story of human ingenuity, resilience, and perseverance, but also of hubris, paternalism, and misperception. Mukherjee recounts centuries of discoveries, setbacks, victories, and deaths, told through the eyes of his predecessors and peers, training their wits against an infinitely resourceful adversary that, just three decades ago, was thought to be easily vanquished in an all-out “war against cancer.” The book reads like a literary thriller with cancer as the protagonist. Riveting, urgent, and surprising, The Emperor of All Maladies provides a fascinating glimpse into the future of cancer treatments. It is an illuminating book that provides hope and clarity to those seeking to demystify cancer.
