A Fold in the Tent of the Sky
Author: Michael Hale
Publisher: William Morrow Paperbacks
ISBN: 9780062385222
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Struggling actor Peter Abbott is about to land the biggest role of his life. His audition for Calliope Associates—a clandestine private investigation firm made up of men and women with highly developed psychic abilities—requires only proof of Peter's psychic skills, no dramatic monologue. Business is booming until members of the group begin disappearing at the hands of fellow psychic Simon Haywood. His genius is matched only by Peter's, but Simon alone discovers a unique way to use his extrasensory skills to travel back in time, committing crimes without any trace. Simon's mind grows warped and paranoid as the universe strains against his tinkering. Terrified that his extracurricular voyages will be curtailed, he plans to "erase" his colleagues. But Simon's methods are not exactly cold-blooded; instead he goes back to the moment of his victims' conception and prevents them from being created. Because no one in the present day recalls he or she ever existed, he's not caught . . . until Peter realizes what's happening. Now time is running out as Simon's sociopathic travels are disrupting the universe, folding and twisting the constraints of matter to a near-breaking point and threatening to spin the entire cosmos out of control. A Fold in the Tent of the Sky takes murder into a new dimension as it races toward its electrifying, time-twisting climax.

Under An Afghan Sky
Author: Mellissa Fung
Publisher: HarperCollins Canada
ISBN: 1443408263
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 353
Book Description
In October 2008, Mellissa Fung, a long-time reporter for CBC’s The National, was leaving a refugee camp outside of Kabul. Suddenly, she was grabbed by armed men claiming to be Taliban, stabbed, stuffed into the back of a car and driven off into the desert. When the group finally reached a village in the middle of nowhere, her kidnappers pushed her towards a hole in the ground. For twenty-eight days, Mellissa Fung lived in that hole, which was barely big enough to stand up or lie down in, nursing her injuries, praying, writing in her notebook and, as a veteran journalist, interrogating her own captors. Under an Afghan Sky is the gripping tale of Fung’s days in captivity, and a powerful book about survival and the indomitable spirit of one woman in the most perilous of circumstances.

Book Description
Niyaniis heart beat painfully against her chest as the fifth man came towards her. His piercing blue eyes were icy as they stabbed trough her. She had never looked at a man like this before and she had to admit, he was something to look at. Cyrus started with her legs. They were long, well toned and so smooth. He watched her shiver and then goose bumps cover her body. Cyrus could tell she was strong and in complete health. He picked up her right hand. This girl was not meant for field work; perhaps a maid? But yet her hands were so smooth. Not rough. So, whats your bid? He suddenly cupped one of her breasts. Niyanii smacked him. Everyone went quiet except for someone who was laughing at the back of the room. How dare he touch her like that! Cyrus looked down at her shocked. Those baby blue eyes were so damn beautiful and furious. She watched the guy pull a red money bag from inside his tunic and hand it to Raevin. Did the guy just buy her? Niyanii would have been outraged, if he didnt walk over to her and pull off his tunic. Then he wrapped the warmed cloth around her. Help me? She whispered. He looked surprised, but those icy eyes turned into liquid warmth. Ill try.
