THE EXPLOSIVE NEW THRILLER FROM THE AUTHOR OF THE TERMINAL LIST,
NOW A MAJOR TV SERIES STARRING CHRIS PRATT. 1978, Rhode Island: A
freshman senator is gunned down, sending shockwaves through
Washington that are still reverberating over four decades later.
Now: In a world on the brink of war facing rampant inflation,
political division, and shocking assassinations, a secret cabal of
global elites are ready to assume control. And with the world's
most dangerous man locked in solitary confinement, the conspirators
believe the final obstacle to complete domination has been
eliminated. They're wrong. From the firms of Wall Street to the
corridors of power in Washington, DC and Moscow, secrets from the
past have the uncanny ability to rise to the surface and with the
odds stacked against him, James Reece is on a deadly mission that
is generations in the making. But for a man on the warpath, odds
are not important in this intoxicating and timely thriller from 'a
rare gut-punch writer, full of grit and insight' (Gregg Hurwitz,
New York Times bestselling author).
A new mystery from Randall Silvis, critically acclaimed master of
crime fiction When powerful men pull strings to get what they
want... someone almost always ends up dead There's not much that
would convince retired police sergeant Ryan DeMarco to take on
another private investigation case, but he can't refuse a
nine-year-old Michigan girl begging for help finding her biological
father. The road trip to the Upper Peninsula promises DeMarco and
his partner, Jayme, a chance to heal from their last case, which
ended in a traumatic brush with death for DeMarco. But things
aren't as they first appear in the woods of Michigan, and the
seemingly simple paternity investigation soon morphs into something
deadly. The deeper DeMarco, Jayme, and the rest of their team dig,
the more ugly truths they reveal, all while doing their best to
keep one member of their team, from falling prey to her own kind of
darkness. This investigation just might be the most emotionally
troubling one DeMarco and Jayme have yet encountered, for there are
plenty of people who will do whatever it takes to shut them down
before the truth comes to light. Acclaimed author Randall Silvis
expertly weaves a shocking tale of secrets and lies in When All
Light Fails, a suspense-fueled mystery that will leave readers
guessing until the very last page. "[a] chilly suspense novel."-The
New York Times Sunday Book Review for Two Days Gone "...a
suspenseful, literary thriller that will resonate with readers long
after the book is finished. A terrific choice for Dennis Lehane

A renowned supermodel's world is torn apart in an instant, sending her on an unexpected journey of discovery in Beautiful, a masterful novel from the international number one bestselling author Danielle Steel.
Veronique Vincent is a star. At age twenty-two, she is one of the most sought-after models in fashion, gracing the covers of magazines and walking the runways of haute couture shows across the globe. Yet, despite being the consummate professional, Veronique wants little of the glamorous life that modeling affords her. The beloved daughter of a hardworking single mother, she has always preferred spending time at home or with her kindhearted boyfriend to attending lavish parties. When a quick getaway presents a welcome break on the heels of Paris Fashion Week, and before a Vogue cover shoot in Tokyo, Veronique is thrilled, eager to escape the mayhem of her busy schedule. Then, out of nowhere, a tragic explosion at Zaventem Airport in Brussels changes her life forever.
The ruthless terrorist attack has the entire world on edge. Veronique finds herself hospitalized and alone, devastated to learn that the blast has killed both of the people she loved most. She is also forced to confront the harsh reality that she has been severely injured, her famous appearance forever altered. As she plunges into seclusion, the industry that once adored her believes her to have fallen off the map. In truth, she is struggling to find herself again after losing everything, and to discover what truly matters in life. But her mother’s will, accompanied by a letter Veronique never knew existed, reveals long-held secrets, introducing her to a world she hadn’t even known was possible.
As Veronique forges bonds old and new, she begins to see a light beyond the darkness she has come to inhabit, finding peace in opportunities to help others, and redefining for herself what beauty is, and what it truly means to be beautiful. Danielle Steel presents a story of one woman’s breathtaking perseverance in moving beyond tragedy to a life more meaningful than she could ever have imagined.
