Book Description
In a simple act that changes her life forever, Cat–a sassy, young feral feline–leaps into a tree hole of a wise, old oak to escape from the 11-year-old cat wrangler Corner. From this moment forward, an unlikely gift of friendship develops between tree and cat. Sensing that the time is drawing near for the Dark Shadow’s re-emergence and attack under the full lunar eclipse, Tree asks a favor of Cat. Tree explains that this will be his last-ditch effort for keeping an ancient promise to his father King Quercus. It is a promise that he and his siblings shamefully broke all those years ago. For her new friend’s sake, Cat begrudgingly sets out on a quest to save the woods, the forgotten treechildren, Corner’s dad, and the town itself from the Dark Shadow.

Stephanie Harrington absolutely hates being confined inside her family's compound on the pioneer planet of Sphinx, a frontier wilderness world populated by dangerous native animals that could easily tear a human to bits and pieces. Yet Stephanie is a young woman determined to make discoveries¾and the biggest discovery of all awaits her: an intelligent alien species. Treecats are creatures that resemble a cross between a bobcat and a lemur (but with six legs and much more deadly claws).

Cruel Doubt
Author: Joe McGinniss
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 1101608668
Category : True Crime
Languages : en
Pages : 475
Book Description
From the New York Times bestselling author of Fatal Vision comes a shocking true account of murder, family secrets, and final justice now available for the first time as an e-book... One hot summer night in 1988, Bonnie Von Stein's second husband was murdered in their bed, Bonnie herself stabbed, beaten, and left for dead beside him. It looked like a brutal but tragically typical case: Von Stein was newly wealthy, and Bonnie's troubled son Chris, seemed like the obvious suspect. But Chris turned out to have an air-tight alibi and new leads suggested the crime could be much more complex. The trail led to Chris’s two strange new friends from college and a real-life enactment of a bizarre Dungeons and Dragons fantasy adventure, and it implicated Bonnie's teenage daughter as well. In Cruel Doubt, Joe McGinniss probes the dark heart of family life and small-town North Carolina society to uncover a fascinating and terrifying story that is at once a chilling murder mystery, a tense courtroom drama, and a heartbreaking account of a mother forced to doubt her own children.
