London. 1945. The capital is shrouded in the darkness of the
blackout, and mystery abounds in the parks after dusk. During a
stroll through Regent's Park, Bruce Mallaig witnesses two men
acting suspiciously around a footbridge. In a matter of moments,
one of them has been murdered; Mallaig's view of the assailant but
a brief glimpse of a ghastly face in the glow of a struck match.
The murderer's noiseless approach and escape seems to defy all
logic, and even the victim's identity is quickly thrown into
uncertainty. Lorac's shrewd yet personable C.I.D. man MacDonald
must set to work once again to unravel this near-impossible
mystery.
Edge of Eternity is the epic, final novel in Ken Follett's captivating
and hugely ambitious Century trilogy. On its own or read in sequence
with Fall of Giants and Winter of the World, this is an irresistible
and spellbinding epic about the fight for personal freedom set during
the Cold War.
A Fight Against Injustice
1961, and in the United States George Jakes, a bright young lawyer in
the Kennedy administration and fierce supporter of the civil rights
movement, boards a Greyhound bus in Washington with Verena, an employee
of Martin Luther King whom he is in love with, to protest against
segregation.
A Rising Tide of Danger
In East Germany, teacher Rebecca Hoffmann finds her entire life has
been a lie as she is targeted by the secret police, even as her younger
brother, Walli, dreams of escape across the Berlin Wall to Britain. In
Russia, activist Tania Dvorkin narrowly evades capture for producing an
illegal news-sheet, her actions all the more perilous because her
brother, Dimka, is an emerging star of the Communist Party.
A Cold War That Could Eliminate the World Forever
In a sweeping tale that began in 1911, the descendants of five families
will now find their true destiny as they fight for their individual
freedom in a world facing the mightiest clash of superpowers it has
ever seen.
