<\/a>The Kaiser’s Web<\/a><\/strong><\/em> by Steve Berry (Cotton Malone #16)<\/p>\nTwo candidates are vying to become Chancellor of Germany. One is a patriot having served for the past sixteen years, the other a usurper, stoking the flames of nationalistic hate. Both harbor secrets, but only one knows the truth about the other. They are on a collision course, all turning on the events of one fateful day \u2014 April 30, 1945 \u2014 and what happened deep beneath Berlin in the\u00a0F\u00fcrherbunker.\u00a0Did Adolph Hitler and Eva Braun die there? Did Martin Bormann, Hitler\u2019s close confidant, manage to escape? And, even more important, where did billions in Nazi wealth disappear to in the waning days of World War II? The answers to these questions will determine who becomes the next Chancellor of Germany.<\/em><\/p>\n From the mysterious Chilean lake district, to the dangerous mesas of South Africa, and finally into the secret vaults of Switzerland, former-Justice Department agent Cotton Malone discovers the truth about the fates of Hitler, Braun, and Bormann. Revelations that could not only transform Europe, but finally expose a mystery known as the Kaiser\u2019s web.<\/em><\/p>\n This book is also available in the following formats:<\/p>\n ________________________________________<\/p>\n Ruth Cooperman arrives in beautiful beachside Provincetown for her retirement, renting the perfect waterfront cottage while she searches for her forever home.

But when she finds a baby girl abandoned on her doorstep, Ruth turns to her new neighbors for help and is drawn into the drama of the close-knit community.<\/em><\/p>\n The appearance of the mystery baby has an emotional ripple effect through the women in town, including Amelia Cabral, the matriarch who lost her own child decades earlier; Elise Douglas, owner of the tea shop who gave up her dream of becoming a mother; and teenage local Jaci Barros who feels trapped by her parents’ expectations. Ruth, caring for a baby for the first time in thirty years, even reaches out to her own estranged daughter, Olivia, summoning her to Provincetown in hopes of a reconciliation.<\/em><\/p>\n As summer unfolds and friends and family care for the infant, alliances are made, relationships are tested, and secrets are uncovered.

His days play out a beat too slow, his mind replaying the scene of his failure again and again.<\/em><\/p>\n But when his brother’s widow appears, asking for his help in uncovering what was really behind his brother’s death, Ethan is stunned to hear that she and her late husband were involved in a much larger case than he knew–one that threatens the global power structure.

Once their first daughter is born, and facing grim economic prospects, they set their sights on the United States.<\/em><\/p>\n They travel to Houston and send wages back to Elena\u2019s mother, all the while weighing whether to risk overstaying their tourist visas or to return to Bogot\u00e1. As their family expands, and they move again and again, their decision to ignore their exit dates plunges the young family into the precariousness of undocumented status, the threat of discovery menacing a life already strained.

So how did this rootin’-tootin’ cowboy — who only wanted the money he figured was due him for a train-triggerd stampede — find himself working as an undercover agent for two most unusual railroad owners and the notorious Wild Bill Hickok? And furthermore, what was he doing in a situation where not only were a lot of self-declared enemies out to gun him down but even his supposed friends had to pretend that he was an outlaw and a man that Sioux Wells would be better off without?<\/em><\/p>\n _______________________________________________<\/p>\n The year is 1940, and the world is torn apart by war.

Of course he\u2019ll do anything to help.<\/em><\/p>\n ________________________________________________<\/p>\n A delightful compendium of short stories inspired by images in the renowned photographic archive of\u00a0The Sunday Times. A picture can paint a thousand words, but what about a vintage photograph?<\/em><\/p>\n In 2015 Alexander McCall Smith wrote a book entitled\u00a0Chance Developments: Unexpected Love Stories, in which he imagined the stories behind five chanced-upon black and white photographs. Who were those people, why were they smiling, what made them sad? He so enjoyed the experience that when\u00a0The Sunday Times\u00a0generously offered him access to their early 20th century photograph archive he jumped at the opportunity.<\/em><\/p>\n In Pianos and Flowers we are invited, through the medium of sepia images, to glimpse a world long departed. In these stories, inspired by long-lost photographs, the lives of the people in the frame are imagined and then explored, layer by layer. What must have it like to be them? We hold our breath for them. Our heart beats faster for them. We look again at the photograph in a new light, and say Yes, it might have happened just like that. This journey of exploration takes us to some exotic places. We share the lives of three sisters, brought up in Penang. We read of what happened to them, and to their Chinese neighbors caught in the tides of war. We see a group of small boys in a Glasgow slum, their young lives stunted by poverty, and hear how life worked out in contrasting ways for them. We follow a young woman’s search for love in the unlikely realm of Egyptian antiquities. And through all of these photographs, and all of these stories, there runs the same refrain: the possibilities of love, of friendship, of happiness lie before us. There are big stories in these simple pictures. At first glance the photographs may seem unexceptional: the mere freezing of a moment in time. But delve deeper and you will realize that these photographs speak volumes.<\/em><\/p>\n This book is also available in the following format:<\/p>\n _______________________________________________<\/p>\n The National Book Award finalist and\u00a0New York Times\u00a0bestselling author of\u00a0Heartland\u00a0focuses her laser-sharp insights on a working-class icon and one of the most unifying figures in American culture: Dolly Parton.<\/em><\/p>\n Growing up amid Kansas wheat fields and airplane factories, Sarah Smarsh witnessed firsthand the particular vulnerabilities\u2014and strengths\u2014of women in working poverty. Meanwhile, country songs by female artists played in the background, telling powerful stories about life, men, hard times, and surviving. In her family, she writes, \u201ccountry music was foremost a language among women. It\u2019s how we talked to each other in a place where feelings aren\u2019t discussed.\u201d And no one provided that language better than Dolly Parton.<\/em><\/p>\n Smarsh challenged a typically male vision of the rural working class with her first book,\u00a0Heartland, starring the bold, hard-luck women who raised her. Now, in\u00a0She Come By It Natural, originally published in a four-part series for\u00a0The Journal of Roots Music,\u00a0No Depression, Smarsh explores the overlooked contributions to social progress by such women\u2014including those averse to the term \u201cfeminism\u201d\u2014as exemplified by Dolly Parton\u2019s life and art.<\/em><\/p>\n Far beyond the recently resurrected \u201cJolene\u201d or quintessential \u201c9 to 5,\u201d Parton\u2019s songs for decades have validated women who go unheard: the poor woman, the pregnant teenager, the struggling mother disparaged as \u201ctrailer trash.\u201d Parton\u2019s broader career\u2014from singing on the front porch of her family\u2019s cabin in the Great Smoky Mountains to achieving stardom in Nashville and Hollywood, from \u201cgirl singer\u201d managed by powerful men to leader of a self-made business and philanthropy empire\u2014offers a springboard to examining the intersections of gender, class, and culture.<\/em><\/p>\n Infused with Smarsh\u2019s trademark insight, intelligence, and humanity,\u00a0She Come By It Natural\u00a0is a sympathetic tribute to the icon Dolly Parton and\u2014call it whatever you like\u2014the organic feminism she embodies.<\/em><\/p>\n This book is also available in the following format:<\/p>\n ____________________________________________<\/p>\n Gibby’s older brothers have already been to war. One died there. The other came back misunderstood and hard, a decorated killer now freshly released from a three-year stint in prison.<\/em><\/p>\n Jason won’t speak of the war or of his time behind bars, but he wants a relationship with the younger brother he hasn’t known for years. Determined to make that connection, he coaxes Gibby into a day at the lake: long hours of sunshine and whisky and older women.<\/em><\/p>\n But the day turns ugly when the four encounter a prison transfer bus on a stretch of empty road. Beautiful but drunk, one of the women taunts the prisoners, leading to a riot on the bus. The woman finds it funny in the moment, but is savagely murdered soon after.<\/em><\/p>\n Given his violent history, suspicion turns first to Jason; but when the second woman is kidnapped, the police suspect Gibby, too. Determined to prove Jason innocent, Gibby must avoid the cops and dive deep into his brother’s hidden life, a dark world of heroin, guns and outlaw motorcycle gangs.<\/em><\/p>\n What he discovers there is a truth more bleak than he could have imagined: not just the identity of the killer and the reasons for Tyra’s murder, but the forces that shaped his brother in Vietnam, the reason he was framed, and why the most dangerous man alive wants him back in prison.<\/em><\/p>\n This book is also available in the following formats:<\/p>\n ____________________________________________<\/p>\n Forced into retirement, Evan Smoak gets an urgent request for help from someone he didn’t even suspect existed.<\/em><\/p>\n As a boy, Evan Smoak was pulled out of a foster home and trained in an off-the-books operation known as the Orphan Program. He was a government assassin, perhaps the best, known to a few insiders as Orphan X. He eventually broke with the Program and adopted a new name \u2013 The Nowhere Man\u2015and a new mission, helping the most desperate in their times of trouble. But the highest power in the country has made him a tempting offer – in exchange for an unofficial pardon, he must stop his clandestine activities as The Nowhere Man. Now Evan has to do the one thing he\u2019s least equipped to do\u2014live a normal life.<\/em><\/p>\n But then he gets a call for help from the one person he never expected. A woman claiming to have given him up for adoption, a woman he never knew\u2014his mother. Her unlikely request: help Andrew Duran\u2014a man whose life has gone off the rails, who was in the wrong place at the wrong time, bringing him to the deadly attention of very powerful figures. Now a brutal brother & sister assassination team are after him and with no one to turn to, and no safe place to hide, Evan is Duran\u2019s only option. But when the hidden cabal catches on to what Evan is doing, everything he\u2019s fought for is on the line\u2014including his own life.<\/em><\/p>\n This book is also available in the following format:<\/p>\n ____________________________________________<\/p>\n Present day: Emma Lovett, who has dedicated her career to breathing new life into long-neglected gardens, has just been given the opportunity of a lifetime: to restore the gardens of the famed Highbury House estate, designed in 1907 by her hero Venetia Smith. But as Emma dives deeper into <\/span>the gardens\u2019 past, she begins to uncover secrets that have long lain hidden.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n 1907: A talented artist with a growing reputation for her ambitious work, Venetia Smith has carved out a niche for herself as a garden designer to industrialists, solicitors, and bankers looking to show off their wealth with sumptuous country houses. When she is hired to design the gardens of Highbury House, she is determined to make them a triumph, but the gardens\u2014and the people she meets\u2014promise to change her life forever.<\/em><\/p>\n 1944: When land girl Beth Pedley arrives at a farm on the outskirts of the village of Highbury, all she wants is to find a place she can call home. Cook Stella Adderton, on the other hand, is desperate to leave Highbury House to pursue her own dreams.

But alas, his postings are more grim than glamorous. Luckily, Wilderness has a knack for doing well for himself even in the most unpromising postings, though this has gotten him into hot water in the past. A coffee-smuggling gig in divided Berlin was a steady money-maker but things went pear-shaped when he had to smuggle a spy back to the KGB instead. <\/em><\/p>\n In the wake of what became an embarrassing disaster for MI6, Wilderness is reprimanded with a posting to remote northern Finland, under the guise of a cultural exchange program to promote Britain abroad. Bored by his work, with nothing to spy on, Wilderness finds another way to make money, this time by smuggling vodka across the rather porous border into the USSR. He strikes a deal with his old KGB pal Kostya, who explains to him there is, no joke, a vodka shortage in the Soviet Union, following a grain famine caused by Khrushchev’s new agricultural policies. But there is something fishy about why Kostya has suddenly turned up in Finland–and MI6 intelligence from London points to a connection to the mining of cobalt in the region, a critical component in the casing of the atomic bomb. Wilderness’s posting is getting more interesting by the minute, but more dangerous too. <\/em><\/p>\n Moving from the no-man’s-land of Cold War Finland to the wild days of the Prague Spring, and populated by old friends (including Inspector Troy) and old enemies alike,\u00a0Hammer to Fall\u00a0is a gripping tale of deception and skullduggery, of art and politics, a page-turning story of the always riveting life of the British spy.<\/em><\/p>\n This book is also available in the following format:<\/p>\n ___________________________________________<\/p>\n Animals don’t exist in order to teach us things, but that is what they have always done, and most of what they teach us is what we think we know about ourselves.<\/em><\/p>\n Helen Macdonald’s bestselling debut\u00a0H is for Hawk\u00a0brought the astonishing story of her relationship with goshawk Mabel to global critical acclaim and announced Macdonald as one of this century’s most important and insightful nature writers.\u00a0H is for Hawk\u00a0won the Samuel Johnson Prize for Nonfiction and the Costa Book Award, and was a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award and the\u00a0Kirkus\u00a0Prize for Nonfiction, launching poet and falconer Macdonald as our preeminent nature essayist, with a semi-regular column in the\u00a0New York Times Magazine.<\/em><\/p>\n In\u00a0Vesper Flights\u00a0Helen Macdonald brings together a collection of her best loved essays, along with new pieces on topics ranging from nostalgia for a vanishing countryside to the tribulations of farming ostriches to her own private vespers while trying to fall asleep. Meditating on notions of captivity and freedom, immigration and flight, Helen invites us into her most intimate experiences: observing songbirds from the Empire State Building as they migrate through the Tribute of Light, watching tens of thousands of cranes in Hungary, seeking the last golden orioles in Suffolk’s poplar forests. She writes with heart-tugging clarity about wild boar, swifts, mushroom hunting, migraines, the strangeness of birds’ nests, and the unexpected guidance and comfort we find when watching wildlife. By one of this century’s most important and insightful nature writers,\u00a0Vesper Flights\u00a0is a captivating and foundational book about observation, fascination, time, memory, love and loss and how we make sense of the world around us.<\/em><\/p>\n This book is also available in the following formats:<\/p>\n Looking for a new large print title to read?
