      "A foundling, an old book of dark fairy tales, a secret garden, an aristocratic family, a love denied, a mystery. A captivating, atmospheric and compulsively readable story of the past, secrets, family and memory. Cassandra is lost, alone and grieving. Her much loved grandmother, Nell, has just died and Cassandra, her life already shaken by a tragic accident ten years ago, feels like she has lost everything dear to her. But an unexpected and mysterious bequest from Nell turns Cassandra's life upside down and ends up challenging everything she thought she knew about herself and her family. Inheriting a book of dark and intriguing fairytales written by Eliza Makepeace - the Victorian authoress who disappeared mysteriously in the early twentieth century - Cassandra takes her courage in both hands to follow in the footsteps of Nell on a quest to find out the truth about their history, their family and their past; little knowing that in the process, she will also discover a new life for herself."--Provided by publisher.

      Demain... les robots, bien plus performants que l'humain moyen, nous auront supplantés. Nous serons persécutés par des mutants télépathes. Nous deviendrons les esclaves de la publicité. Demain nous perdrons notre libre arbitre. Si toutefois nous survivons au grand cataclysme... Tels sont les avenirs pessimistes imaginés par l'esprit paranoïaque de Philip K. Dick. Ces nouvelles, dont les thèmes sont depuis devenus des classiques du genre, prennent sous la plume du Maître une saveur particulière. La question "et si?", chère aux amateurs d'anticipation, se pare ici de son sens le plus noir et le plus inquiétant.

      An alternate cover edition can be found here . The House at Riverton is a gorgeous debut novel set in England between the wars. Perfect for fans of "Downton Abbey," it's the story of an aristocratic family, a house, a mysterious death, and a way of life that vanished forever, told in flashback by a woman who witnessed it all. The novel is full of secrets -- some revealed, others hidden forever, reminiscent of the romantic suspense of Daphne du Maurier. It's also a meditation on memory and the devastation of war and a beautifully rendered window into a fascinating time in history.

      JFK International Airport, New York City: Seated corpses faced them in row after row. No evident trauma. No nosebleeds. No signs of poisoning.

Dr. Ephraim Goodweather, head of the Center for Disease Control's New York team, is racing to find out, but little does Eph know that the nightmare is only just beginning.

Many years ago, in the hellish barracks of the Treblinka extermination camp, he faced a horror more terrifying than death itself. Before the next sundown Eph, Setrakian, and a motley collection of heroes must undertake the ultimate fight for survival. Should they fail, New York will be lost. And the rest of the world will follow...
