About this book

FROM THE HEAT OF AN ACAPULCO NIGHT... Cyn McCall knew she could always count on her late husband's friend and business partner, Worth Lansing. He could always make her laugh and forget her problems. She could tease him about his many romantic entanglements. The last thing Cyn expected was to find herself longing for a man who could never settle down. TO A FLASH FIRE OF PASSION When Worth Lansing invited his bestfriend Cyn to a getaway weekend in Acapulco he never suspected he'd respond to her the way he did to any beautiful woman. While he thought it was time she stopped mourning and moved forward with her life, he couldn't escape the feeling that he's betraying Tim's memory. But guilt couldn't stop the rising tide of desire threatening to overwhelm him. Cyn wanted to believe that their night of abandon was sparked by the exotic locale and intoxicating scent of hibiscus. Worth knew they shared something deeper, a passion that would outlast the Mexican sunglow...if only Cyn would open her heart to new possibilities and the promise of love.

Norman Mailer

Arguably the greatest book from America's most heroically ambitious writer, THE EXECUTIONER'S SONG follows the short, blighted life of Gary Gilmore who became famous after he robbed two men in 1976 and killed them in cold blood. After being tried and convicted, he immediately insisted on being executed for his crime. To do so, he fought a system that seemed intent on keeping him alive long after it had sentenced him to death. And that fight for the right to die is what made him famous.

Elbow Room

James Alan McPherson

Deeply researched, brilliantly plotted, and peopled with a cast of unforgettable characters both historical and wholly invented, **Cloudsplitter** vividly re-creates the antislavery movement of the 1840s and traces it through the brutal guerrilla warfare of Bloody Kansas, culminating in the a haunting, powerful re-creation of Brown's insurrectionary raid on Harpers Ferry.
