N e w ly R e l e a s e d The Book of Card Games The Craft of the Knot The Complete Rules to the Classics, Family Favorites, and Forgotten Games From fishing knots to bowlines and bends, a practical guide to knot tying and usage Nikki Katz Peter Randall Readers tired of racking their brains to remember the card games they used to play with family and friends will enjoy this book. Inside, they’ll find easy-to-read descriptions and instructions for all the games they loved, including Gin Rummy, Poker, Bridge, Solitaire, and Go Fish. They’ll also be able to easily navigate through more than fifty popular games, so that they can simply flip to their family favorites and enjoy the fun without having to relearn dozens of complex rules. Complete with quick tips for mastering must-know strategies, The Book of Card Games encourages readers to gather around the table once again and let the games begin! In the age of digital convenience, many essential crafts have been pushed aside, relegated to a bygone era of self-sufficiency and workmanship. The Craft of the Knot reintroduces readers to the most important skill of the golden era, presenting a wide range of useful knots, history, and lore within a charming package that evokes the classical nautical heritage of the knot, and adds character and class that is missing from other titles on the subject. This is no mere coffee table book, however. Whether readers want to brush up on the basics of hitches and bends, or create complex and beguiling decorative knots, they will find that this book has the knots they need for every conceivable occasion. With knots broken down by use and application, more than 200 illustrations, and fascinating chapters on history and lore, The Craft of the Knot is the one guide that no fan of ropework can leave off their shelf !

There, he picked up a few key survival skills, a wee bit of an anger management problem, and his best friend for life, Junior. Now adults, Boo and Junior provide security for The Cellar, a Boston nightclub where the bartender Audrey and the night porter, Luke make up the family Boo never had. A mad director, off his meds, is making a movie about how he murders the producers who ruined his career. The movie is in his mind. The murders are real. Todd Robinson But when Boo and Junior are hired to find Cassandra, a well-to-do runaway slumming among the authority-shy street kids, Boo sees his own long-lost younger sister in the girl. And as the case deepens, Boo’s blind desire for justice begins to push his surrogate family’s loyalty to the breaking point. Cassie’s life depends on Boo’s determination to see the case through, but that same determination just might finally drive him and Junior apart. What’s looking like an easy payday is turning into a hard bounce—for everyone. Heywood Gould Tommy Veasy, a pot-smoking homicide detective—our hero—who writes poetry to help him solve cases and ward off despair thinks he sees a pattern in these seemingly accidental deaths. His colleagues think he’s being dramatic. But the bodies keep piling up. The staff of a syndicated TV show in its tenth year, formerly an international hit, worries about how they will maintain their Hollywood lifestyles when they become unemployable. Not a big problem: the mad director has planted a bomb in the office phone and is frantically trying to set it off. And meanwhile, a home invader keeps invading the wrong homes to everyone’s perplexity. In other words: it’s just another day in paradise.

N e w ly R e l e a s e d f r o m T y r u s Book s My Second Death Laws of Migration In Lydia Cooper’s absorbing debut novel, the careful existence Mickey Brandeis has created in adulthood is upended when she is mysteriously led to a condemned house where she discovers an exquisitely mutilated corpse. The same surreal afternoon she is asked by a timid, wall-eyed art student to solve a murder that occurred twenty years earlier. While she gets deeper and deeper into the investigation, she begins to lose hold on her tenuous connection to reality—to her maddening students and graduate thesis advisor; to her stoic parents, who are no longer speaking; to her confused, chameleon-like adolescent brother; and to her older brother, Dave, a zany poet who is growing increasingly erratic and keenly interested in Mickey’s investigation. It all started when Elize, a Texas ornithologist, thought she was getting a promotion—and didn’t. All her hard work, her dedication, her upcoming birding trip to Morocco, were all out the window. Then Elize’s assistant declares that she can still get to Morocco without any of her colleagues being the wiser about her demotion. Lydia Cooper Driven by an unforgettable voice, and filled with razor-sharp wit and vivid characters, My Second Death is a smart, suspenseful novel and a provocative examination of family, loyalty, the human psyche, and the secrets we keep to save ourselves.

Suzanne Frank Elize jumps at the opportunity to get away, and before she knows it, she’s met a very intriguing man in Marrakech. Erik is the kind of man who asks more questions than he answers, who knows more than he lets on. But he shows Elize that there’s more than one way to live life. As Elize travels further into Morocco in search of the endangered bald ibis, she starts to figure out that love and forgiveness aren’t so unreachable after all—and that letting go of her past will set her free, just like the ibis.

They might try to intimidate others or focus the attention on themselves, making it impossible to have a voice during any interaction with them. Handling Difficult People will help readers deal with the toxic personalities in all areas of their life, including in the workplace, at home, and while out on the town. Inside, they’ll find the strategies and tools they need to spot the ten most common personality types and information on why these people behave in such an irritating manner. This book will also teach them what to do when confronted by a difficult person as well as how to avoid these types of people altogether. So whether they are dealing with a Big Bully at work, have a friend who is a Constant Complainer, or can’t stand their Snooty Snob of a cousin, readers will always know just what to say and do with Handling Difficult People.

Ca n ’t M i s s Bac k l i s t It’s 1967 and Moe Prager is wandering aimlessly through his college career and his life. All that changes when his girlfriend Mindy is viciously beaten into a coma and left to die on the snow-covered streets of Brooklyn. Suddenly, Moe has purpose. He is determined to find out who’s done this to Mindy and why. But Mindy is not the only person in Moe’s life who’s in danger. Someone is also trying to kill his best and oldest friend, Bobby Friedman. Things get really strange when Moe enlists the aid of Lids, a half-cracked, genius drug pusher from the old neighborhood. Lids hooks Moe up with his first solid information. The problem is the info seems to take Moe in five directions at once and leads to more questions than answers. How is a bitter old camp survivor connected to the dead man in the apartment above his fixit shop or to the OD’d junkie found on the boardwalk in Coney Island? What could an underground radical group have to do with the local Mafioso capo? And where do Mindy and Bobby fit into any of this? Moe will risk everything to find the answers. He will travel from the potholed pavement of Brighton Beach to the Pocono Mountains to the runways at Kennedy Airport. But no matter how far he goes or how fast he gets there, all roads lead to Onion Street.

He was born in a car by the Merced River, and grew up in a hidden camp with his parents, surviving on fish, acorns, and unfinished food thrown away by the park’s millions of tourists. But despite its splendor, Tenaya’s Yosemite is a visceral place of opposites, at once beautiful, dangerous, and violent. When he meets Lucy, a young woman from the south side of the park, Tenaya must choose between this new relationship and the Valley, between terrorism and legend, and the sacred versus the material. In this modern retelling of Samson and Delilah, Graphic the Valley explores mythical strength, worldly greed, love, lust, and epic destruction. Set entirely in the majestic Yosemite Valley, Hoffmeister recalls Edward Abbey’s vivid sense of place and urgent call for preservation of one of the world’s most spectacular sites. “Author and climber Peter Brown Hoffmeister has woven history, adventure, family, and tragedy into a gripping story set in one of America’s most legendary climbing epicenters.
