Meanwhile, Detective Jake Brogan's got a doozy of a case. At Boston's
historic Faneuil Hall, a man is stabbed to death in front of a crowd of
tourists snapping photos. Solving the case should be easy, but the pictures
and surveillance video lead him to a dark conspiracy of extortion and stolen
lives.
Jane and Jake must explore where their loyalties lie—each other? Their
families? Their careers? If they make the wrong decision, the consequences
could be fatal.

While it has long been known that Viking ships explored the American
coast, recent archaeological evidence suggests a far more permanent
settlement. It is from this evidence that archaeologists and early American
history experts Kathleen O'Neal Gear and W. Michael Gear weave their
extraordinary tale.
People of the Songtrail is a story of a swift and violent clash of cultures, and
of extraordinary men and women who were brave enough to work for the
fragile hope of peace. A story that has remained untold, until now.

A collection of true on-the-road ghost stories told by the people who
lived them
In a uniquely entertaining book by a rising star, here are uncanny true tales
of haunted highways, weird encounters, and legends of the road.
It may have happened to you; it's happened to almost everyone who's ever
driven down a highway at night, or in the fog, or snow. Something suddenly
appears: a flash of movement, a shadow...what was it? It could be, as the
true stories in this book attest, a ghost.

These are true stories from the highways and byways of America. These
first-hand accounts are as varied as the storytellers themselves—some are
detailed and filled with the terror and suspense that made people feel they
had to share what happened to them with others; others are brief and
straightforward retellings of truly chilling events.
Here is a chupacabra attack on the desert highway between L.A. and Las
Vegas; ghost trains and soldiers; UFOs; the prom girl ghost of Alabama; a
demon in Texas, and other accounts of the creepy, scary things that
truckers and other drivers and passengers told to editor Annie Wilder.

haunted house to offer stories to entice any ghost story reader--and anyone

Danny North is the first Gate Mage to be born on Earth in nearly 2000
years, or at least the first to survive to claim his power. Families of Westil
in exile on Earth have had a treaty that required the death of any suspected
Gate Mage. The wars between the Families had been terrible, until at last
they realized it was their own survival in question. But a Gate Mage, one
who could build a Great Gate back to Westil, would give his own Family a
terrible advantage over all the others, and reignite the wars. So they all had
to die. And if the Families didn't kill them, the Gate Thief would--that
mysterious Mage who destroyed every Great Gate, and the Gate Mage,
before it could be opened between Earth and Westil.
But Danny survived. And Danny battled the Gate Thief and won.
What he didn't know at the time was that the Gate Thief had a very good
reason for closing the Great Gates--and Danny has now fallen into the
power of that great enemy of both Earth and Westil.
KEY SELLING POINTS:
* Gatefather is the third and final book in Card's Mithermages series. Both
previous books, The Lost Gate and The Gate Thief were New York Times
bestsellers in hardcover
* This series is contemporary fantasy and will appeal to fans of both urban
fantasy and high fantasy
* Orson Scott Card is the bestselling author of Ender's Game and its sequels.
He has a special talent for writing young characters who appeal strongly to
adult readers, and Danny North will engage everyone who reads his story
* Card's SF novels routinely appear on the New York Times and USA Today
bestseller lists. Ender's Game won the Hugo and Nebula awards, and in
paperback is one of Tor's top backlist titles. It has been in print since 1985
and is an enduring classic of science fiction

These are the voyages (such as they are) of the Engage-Class Starship

Captain Hadrian Alan Sawback is the either the pride of the Terran Space
Fleet or its biggest disgrace, depending on who you talk to. He’s never met a
Secondary Directive he didn’t break, an order he didn’t disregard, a uniform
he didn’t rip, or a curvaceous crew member he doesn’t want to make first
contact with. Assigned to a routine shakedown cruise in search of smugglers,
he instead embarks on a chaotic, calamitous and frequently inappropriate
journey into Unknown Space, where he and his occasionally mutinous crew
encounter everything from oversexed extraterrestrial races and a
self-aggrandizing time machine to a rogue Artificial Intelligence with gender
issues. Along the way, Captain Sawback may even save the Affiliation of
Civilized Planets from an all-out alien invasion—if he doesn’t get courtmartialed first!

Joel C. Rosenberg
The Last Jihad
A gripping and prescient tale from New York Times bestselling
author Joel C. Rosenberg
Jon Bennett and Erin McCoy are two of the shrewdest strategists on Wall
Street, and close friends of the president of the United States. Their secret
project: a billion-dollar oil deal off the coast of Tel Aviv and Gaza that
could form the basis of a historic peace treaty and bring enormous wealth to
every Israeli and Palestinian. But nothing has prepared Jon or Erin for the
terror that lies ahead.

The Last Jihad is the first of Joel C. Rosenberg's New York Times bestselling
series, with more than 500,000 in print. The first page puts readers in the
cockpit of a hijacked jet on a kamikaze mission into an American city...but
it was written nine months before 9/11/01. As the plot unfolds, White
House advisers Jon Bennett and Erin McCoy are under attack in Jerusalem
as the US goes to war with Iraq over weapons of mass destruction...but The
Last Jihad was published four months before the actual Iraq war began.
KEY SELLING POINTS:
* Rosenberg's The First Hostage (12/2015) is a #1 bestseller on the ECPA
Christian Fiction Bestsellers list
* Rosenberg has been visible in Christian and conservative media in 2016,
with interviews on Fox Business News, the Christian Broadcast Network
(CBN), Glenn Beck's The Blaze network, the 700 club, and other online
media
* As the 2016 primaries heat up, conservative outlets will continue to bring
in experts such as Joel to discuss Middle East extremism. This reissue will be
available for the exciting months leading up to the election
* In hardcover, The Last Jihad spent eleven weeks on the New York Times
bestseller list
"A provocative, conservative political thriller that reads like a major Hollywood
blockbuster. In the spirit of Tom Clancy's Sum of All Fears, Rosenberg's The
Last Jihad absolutely crackles with high energy and a chilling premise--what if
the war on terror goes nuclear." --Rush Limbaugh, host of the nationally
syndicated Rush Limbaugh Radio Show
"A high speed, heart-pounding, edge-of-your-seat roller coaster ride into the
heart of darkness." --Sean Hannity, host of the nationally syndicated Sean
Hannity Radio Show and Fox News' Hannity & Colmes
