Kate, her coworkers, and friends are off and running again when she befriends a tree climbing, alien-watching man living in the backyard of her house-to-be, and she is kidnapped by aliens. Confusion and levity ensue when the CIA, Homeland Security, the US Armed Services, the Maricopa County Sheriffs Office, the Phoenix Police Department, and Kates real estate agent join in the search to find Kate.

Book excerpt: “A suspenseful roller-coaster ride.”—Karin Slaughter • “Lisa Gardner always delivers heart-stopping suspense.”—Harlan Coben He knows everything about you—including the first place you’ll hide. On a warm summer night in one of Boston’s working-class neighborhoods, an unthinkable crime has been committed: Four members of a family have been brutally murdered. The father—and possible suspect—now lies clinging to life in the ICU. Murder-suicide? Or something worse? Veteran police detective D. D. Warren is certain of only one thing: There’s more to this case than meets the eye. Danielle Burton is a survivor, a dedicated nurse whose passion is to help children at a locked-down pediatric psych ward. But she remains haunted by a family tragedy that shattered her life nearly twenty-five years ago. The dark anniversary is approaching, and when D. D. Warren and her partner show up at the facility, Danielle immediately realizes: It has started again. A devoted mother, Victoria Oliver has a hard time remembering what normalcy is like. But she will do anything to ensure that her troubled son has some semblance of a childhood. She will love him no matter what. Nurture him. Keep him safe. Protect him. Even when the threat comes from within her own house. The lives of these three women unfold and connect in unexpected ways, as sins from the past emerge—and stunning secrets reveal just how tightly blood ties can bind. Sometimes the most devastating crimes are the ones closest to home.

Book excerpt: Organisations private and public operate in an increasingly uncertain landscape, in which they are confronted with challenges they might not be ready to face. They desperately need the engaged minds of their workforces. The evidence, however, suggests that for the most part they don't have that. There is an urgent need to address the high cost of low trust and employee disengagement. Revealing a new approach centred on redefining what we mean by 'management' and 'business', and that it is a collective form of learning that binds them together and facilitates sustained high performance, Donal Carroll examines high performing organisations to uncover how they have built trust, managed value, adopted new types of business model and successfully engaged in collective learning. The new management model is about retaining control by giving it away, more accountable self-management, a new professionalism, and about framing organisation as the basic unit of purpose rather than management itself. Next, new business models are examined more suited to complex, internet-enabled markets that allow greater choice, but which need organizational alertness to what works. Thirdly, learning is considered, with a focus on moving from organisational learning to productive interference sustaining action-based learning that thrives on 'mess' in an open, trusting, democratic climate. The author provides tools and techniques enabling organisations to measure creativity and innovation and to undertake self-assessment of their position in relation to the new management, business and learning models, as well as guidance on energising change initiatives, self-leading and accountability. Practicing managers, change leaders, coaches and consultants, as well as business scholars and researchers, will find much that is useful in this book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this #1 New York Times bestseller, Ijeoma Oluo offers a revelatory examination of race in America Protests against racial injustice and white supremacy have galvanized millions around the world. The stakes for transformative conversations about race could not be higher. Still, the task ahead seems daunting, and it’s hard to know where to start. How do you tell your boss her jokes are racist? Why did your sister-in-law hang up on you when you had questions about police reform? How do you explain white privilege to your white, privileged friend? In So You Want to Talk About Race, Ijeoma Oluo guides readers of all races through subjects ranging from police brutality and cultural appropriation to the model minority myth in an attempt to make the seemingly impossible possible: honest conversations about race, and about how racism infects every aspect of American life. "Simply put: Ijeoma Oluo is a necessary voice and intellectual for these times, and any time, truth be told." ―Phoebe Robinson, New York Times bestselling author of You Can't Touch My Hair

Book excerpt: The Woman in White is considered to be among the first mystery novels and is widely regarded as one of the first (and finest) in the genre of "sensation novels". The story is sometimes considered an early example of detective fiction with the hero, Walter Hartright, employing many of the sleuthing techniques of later private detectives. The Moonstone is an epistolary novel, generally considered the first detective novel in the English language. Besides creating many of the ground rules of the detective novel, The Moonstone also reflected Collins' enlightened social attitudes in his treatment of the servants in the novel. Armadale is a mystery novel and has a convoluted plot about two distant cousins both named Allan Armadale. The father of one had murdered the father of the other (the two fathers are also named Allan Armadale). The story starts with a deathbed confession by the murderer in the form of a letter to be given to his baby son when he grows up. No Name is a 19th-century novel revolving around the issue of illegitimacy.
