Book Description
Nothing is quite as it seems in Scott Hudak's twisting new crime novel, Death Cards, where an investigation into a teenager's disappearance reveals that even the simplest of events can cover up a much darker reality. When eighteen-year-old Lauren Shor is abducted on December 16, 1977, the New York City police force plunge into a full scale investigation. But a year passes and there are still no leads, a fact that makes their next discovery so agonizing: One year after the disappearance, the Shor family receives a holiday card from Lauren's abductor. For the next twenty-three years, the "death cards" arrive every Christmas, while Lauren's unsolved case eventually becomes buried, only to land on the desk and into the life of Detective Paula Brocton years later. As Detective Brocton's determination to discover the truth, drives her to dig deeper into the past, secrets slowly reveal themselves-secrets that were meant to stay buried. "There's an absorbing and frightening sense of reality at the heart of this debut novel. Cleverly plotted and convincingly written... Scott Hudak is a real find in the mystery field." -Peter Lovesey, renowned British mystery writer

Book Description
Edited by bestselling author George R. R. Martin, in the next Wild Cards adventure we follow John Fortune, son of two of the most powerful and popular Aces the world has ever seen. In Death Draws Five, John Fortune's card has finally turned. He's an Ace! And proud of it . . . except that his new powers put him on a collision course with enemies he never knew he had. Is he the new messiah? Or the Anti-Christ? Or is he just a kid who's in over his head and about to drown? It's really quite simple. Mr. Nobody wants to do his job. The Midnight Angel wants to serve her Lord. Billy Ray, dying from boredom, wants some action. John Nighthawk wants to uncover the awful secret behind his mysterious power. Fortunato wants to rescue his son from the clutches of a cryptic Vatican office. John Fortune just wants to catch Siegfried and Ralph's famous Vegas review. The problem is that all roads, whether they start in Turin, Italy, Las Vegas, Hokkaido, Japan, Jokertown, Snake Hill, the Short Cut, or Yazoo City, Mississippi, lead to Leo Barnett's Peaceable Kingdom, where the difference between the Apocalypse and Peace on Earth is as thin as a razor's edge and where Death himself awaits the final, terrible turn of the card.

Tired of being the “shefault” parent responsible for all aspects of her busy household, Eve Rodsky counted up all the unpaid, invisible work she was doing for her family—and then sent that list to her husband, asking for things to change.

Stop drowning in to-dos and lose some of that invisible workload that's pulling you down. Are you ready to try Fair Play? Let's deal you in.
