Abstract: It is the morning of the reaping that will kick off the tenth annual Hunger Games. In the Capitol, eighteen-year-old Coriolanus Snow is preparing for his one shot at glory as a mentor in the Games. The once-mighty house of Snow has fallen on hard times, its fate hanging on the slender chance that Coriolanus will be able to outcharm, outwit, and outmaneuver his fellow students to mentor the winning tribute. But the odds are against him.

Abstract: Just as Bruce Cable’s Bay Books is preparing for the return of bestselling author Mercer Mann, Hurricane Leo veers from its predicted course and heads straight for the island. Bruce decides to stay and ride out the storm. The hurricane is devastating: homes and condos are leveled, hotels and storefronts ruined, streets flooded, and a dozen people lose their lives. One of the apparent victims is Nelson Kerr, a friend of Bruce’s and an author of thrillers. But the nature of Nelson’s injuries suggests that the storm wasn’t the cause of his death.

Abstract: Lydia Quixano Pérez lives in the Mexican city of Acapulco. She runs a bookstore. She has a son, Luca, the love of her life, and a wonderful husband who is a journalist. And while there are cracks beginning to show in Acapulco because of the drug cartels, her life is, by and large, fairly comfortable. And then one day a man enters the shop to browse and comes up to the register with a few books he would like to buy—two of them her favorites. Javier is erudite. He is charming. And, unbeknownst to Lydia, he is the jefe of the newest drug cartel that has gruesomely taken over the city.

Abstract: Hero to some, outlaw to others, Kelly throws a long shadow over a specific period of Australian history. Spanning his life from his younger years to the time leading up to his death, the film explores the story behind this legendary figure. Nurtured by the notorious bushranger Harry Power and fuelled by the unfair arrest of his mother, Kelly recruits a wild bunch of warriors to plot a campaign of anarchy and rebellion that will grip the entire country. Youth and tragedy collide in the Kelly Gang, and at the beating heart of this tale is the fractured and powerful love story between a mother and son.

Abstract: Four brilliant new tales in If It Bleeds are sure to prove as iconic as their predecessors. Once again, King’s remarkable range is on full display. In the title story, reader favorite Holly Gibney must face her fears, and possibly another outsider—this time on her own. In “Mr. Harrigan’s Phone” an intergenerational friendship has a disturbing afterlife. “The Life of Chuck” explores, beautifully, how each of us contains multitudes. And in “Rat,” a struggling writer must contend with the darker side of ambition.

Abstract: Il corpo congelato. Occhi spalancati e labbra socchiuse. Come se fosse morta mentre era sul punto di parlare.. Quando un ragazzo scopre il cadavere di una donna sotto una spessa lastra di ghiaccio in un parco di Londra, la detective Erika Foster viene subito incaricata dell'indagine sull'omicidio. La vittima, giovane, ricca e molto conosciuta negli ambienti della Londra bene, sembrava condurre una vita perfetta. Ma quando Erika comincia a scavare più a fondo tra le pieghe nascoste della sua esistenza, trova degli strani punti di collegamento tra quell'omicidio e l'uccisione di tre prostitute, assassinate secondo un macabro e preciso rituale. Ma chi era veramente la ragazza nel ghiaccio? Quali segreti nascondeva? Il ritratto che ne dà la famiglia corrisponde alla verità? Erika ha l'impressione che tutti gli elementi cui si aggrappa nel corso delle ricerche le scivolino via dalle dita, ma è cocciuta, determinata e disposta a qualunque cosa pur di arrivare a capire che cosa si cela dietro quella morte violenta.

Abstract: When the Japanese haiku master Basho composed The Narrow Road to the Deep North, he was an ardent student of Zen Buddhism, setting off on a series of travels designed to strip away the trappings of the material world and bring spiritual enlightenment. He writes of the seasons changing, the smell of the rain, the brightness of the moon and the beauty of the waterfall, through which he sensed the mysteries of the universe. These writings not only chronicle Basho's travels, but they also capture his vision of eternity in the transient world around him.
