1.  The Neighbor (Hardcover) ~ Lisa Gardner (Author)
When a young mother is murdered in her bed, the woman's husband becomes the primary suspect. The couple seemed to live a perfectly normal life--loving parents of a precocious four-year-old living in a quiet, residential neighborhood in South Boston. But as Detective D. D. Warren begins to investigate, the family's life slowly reveals itself to be not so normal. In the wake of his wife's death, the husband certainly is acting strangely, but does that mean he's the murderer? And will anyone know for sure until another life is lost?

2.  Let the Great World Spin (Hardcover) ~ Colum McCann (Author)
In a tale set in Manhattan of 1974, a radical young Irish monk struggles with personal demons while making his home among Bronx prostitutes, a group of mothers is separated by personal differences in spite of shared grief over their lost Vietnam soldier sons, and a young grandmother attempts to prove her worth by soliciting men at the side of her teenage daughter.

3.  Omen (Hardcover) ~ Christie Golden (Author)
Exiled from his colleagues and traveling with his son to learn his nephew Jacen's non-Jedi approaches to the Force, Grand Master Luke leaves the Jedi Order vulnerable to its unstable members and an increasingly anti-Jedi government, a situation that is further complicated by a Knight's rare ability and a Sith plot.

4.  The Full Roger (Hardcover) ~ Alan Capel (Author)
Great value omnibus paperback, containing all the very best silent adventures of the half-dressed man, whose cartoon antics showcase how much fun you can have with your trousers off.


Authors to Watch (and Read)

"South of Broad by Pat Conroy

Pat Conroy's first novel in almost 15 years simultaneously acts as a portrait of a single man, a family, and a city. The man is Leopold Bloom King and the city is Charleston, South Carolina, Conroy's own home town. Leo's father is a high school science teacher, and his mother is that school's principal and a renowned scholar of James Joyce. The defining moment in the lives of these three is the teenage suicide of Leo's older brother, an event which continues to resonate through the relationships of the Kings forever after. Leo eventually finds solace with an eclectic mix of high school friends who challenge the racist traditions of Charleston during the tumultuous 1960s.

Two decades later, the same stubborn spirit and determined individuality which allowed the friends to break down the oppressive barriers of Charleston has propelled them in very different directions, and they must reunite to try to rescue one of their number from the AIDS epidemic which ravaged San Francisco in the 1980s. Conroy's extravagant language is in full effect, as he brilliantly evokes Leo's participation in history, as seen through the filter of memory.
