Book Description
From one of America's best-loved storytellers - the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Where the Heat Is - comes a tale of a small Oklahoma town and the mystery that has haunted its residents for years. In 1972, windswept DeClare, Oklahoma, was consumed by the murder of a young mother, Gaylene Harjo, and the disappearance of her baby, Nicky Jack. When the child's pajama bottoms were discovered on the banks of Willow Creek, everyone feared that he, too, had been killed, although his body was never found. Nearly thirty years later, Nicky Jack mysteriously returns to DeClare, shocking the town and stirring up long-buried memories. But what he discovers about the night he vanished is more astonishing than he or anyone could have imagine. Piece by piece, what emerges is a story of dashed hopes, desperate love, and a secret that still cries out for justice...and redemption.

In Shooting at the Moon, Roger Warner chronicles a covert operation that used Hmong villagers as guerrilla fighters against the North during the Vietnamese War. Thought to be an expendable resource by Central Intelligence Agency strategists, the Hmong died by the thousands fighting the North Vietnamese. Those who survived were abandoned to their fate when the United States pulled out of the war.

Book Description
Once more, bestselling author Joseph T. Klempner combines thrills, vivid characters, and a plot that leaves the reader breathless. All his life, Michael Goodman has stayed in the comfort zone: never taking any chances, never breaking any rules. Now, Goodman, bookkeeper, father, and widower, is about to change his ways. It starts in a Fort Lauderdale parking lot. Suddenly, the accountant, desperately trying to find a job and pay his daughter's mounting medical bills, is in possession of a load of pure, undiluted heroin. With a white-hot bag of powder and scarcely a clue, Goodman leads the cops, the Drug Enforcement Administration, and one very sexy woman on a wild-goose chase through the deadly world of New York City drug dealing. It's a wild ride that might make Goodman rich and might even land him in love - as long as it doesn't kill him.
