Now in international mass market. Nineteen‐year‐old Nayeli works at a taco shop in her Mexican village and dreams about her father, who journeyed to the US when she was young. Recently, it has dawned on her that he isn't the only man who has left town. In fact, there are almost no men in the village—they've all gone north. While watching The Magnificent Seven, Nayeli decides to go north herself and recruit seven men—her own 'Siete Magníficos'‐‐to repopulate her hometown and protect it from the bandidos who plan on taking it over. Filled with unforgettable characters and prose as radiant as the Sinaloan sun, INTO THE BEAUTIFUL NORTH is the story of an irresistible young woman's quest to find herself on both sides of the fence.

Teams Up with Europe's #1 Bestselling Author Two Thrilling Authors Write One Incredible Book

LIZA MARKLUND THE POSTCARD KILLERS James Patterson & Liza Marklund "Patterson boils a scene down to the single, telling detail, the element that defines a character or moves the plot along. It's what fires off the movie projector in the reader's mind." —Michael Connelly James Patterson teams up with Europe's #1 bestseller Liza Marklund to create the scariest vacation thriller ever. NYPD detective Jack Kanon is on a tour of Europe's most gorgeous cities. But the sights aren't what draw him—he sees each museum, each cathedral, and each restaurant through a killer's eyes. Kanon's daughter, Kimmy, and her boyfriend were murdered while on vacation in Rome. Since then, young couples in Paris, Copenhagen, Frankfurt, and Stockholm have become victims of the same sadistic killers. Now Kanon teams up with the Swedish reporter, Gabby Larsen. Every killing is preceded by a postcard to the local newspaper—and Kanon and Larsen think they know where the next victims will be. With relentless logic and unstoppable action, THE POSTCARD KILLERS may be James Patterson's most vivid and compelling thriller yet.

Former VP of CIA's National Intelligence Council Asks What Would A WORLD WITHOUT ISLAM Be Like? A

Provocative Political Read

A WORLD WITHOUT ISLAM Graham E. Fuller Praise for Graham Fuller: "Fuller argues persuasively that Islamic political movements are, above all, an engagement with the modern world, not a flight from it, and that it is possible to reason critically with their ideas."—Fred Halliday, London School of Economics "Read Fuller's...book...to make sense of the dangerous, changing, and complex relationship between the West and the World of Islam."— Akbar S. Ahmed, Ibn Khaldun Chair of Islamic Studies, American University on The Future of Political Islam What if Islam never existed? To some, it's a comforting thought: no clash of civilizations, no holy wars, no terrorists. But what if that weren't the case at all? In A WORLD WITHOUT ISLAM, Graham E. Fuller guides us along an illuminating journey through history, geopolitics, and religion to investigate whether or not Islam is indeed the cause of some of today's most emotional and important international crises. Fuller takes us from the birth of Islam to the fall of Rome to the rise and collapse of the Ottoman Empire. He examines and analyzes the roots of terrorism, the conflict in Israel, and the role of Islam in supporting and energizing the anti‐imperial struggle. Provocatively, he finds that contrary to the claims of many politicians, thinkers, theologians, and soldiers, a world without Islam might not look vastly different from what we know today.

Council at the CIA. Fuller’s cover story in Foreign Policy on this topic was picked up by the the Wall Street Journal’s web site and was one of the most discussed think pieces of 2008.

The Gripping Sequel to

THE PROPHECY OF THE SISTERS "A Captivating Tragedy." —Publisher's Weekly

"This arresting story takes readers to other planes of existence."

— Booklist (starred review)

GUARDIAN OF THE GATE Michelle Zink Praise for PROPHECY OF THE SISTERS:

"This is a brooding, haunting tale of an ancient struggle between living and dead, with two sisters at its heart. It's Gothic, Edwardian, and absolutely un‐put‐down‐able!" —Tamora Pierce, author of the New York Times bestselling Beka Cooper series In this highly‐anticipated sequel to Prophecy of the Sisters, sixteen year‐old orphan Lia Milthorpe continues her quest to end an age‐ old prophecy that has turned generations of sisters against each other. Having now accepted the responsibilities tied to her role as the Gate, Lia journeys to the uncharted isle of Altus to continue her search for the missing pages of the Book of Chaos—the pages that could tell her how to end the prophecy. Meanwhile, twin sister Alice continues to hone her spellcasting abilities, completely ignoring the rules that govern the Otherworlds. Alice will stop at nothing to reclaim Lia's role of Gate, and that's not the only thing she wants. There's also Lia's true love, James. The outcome of this battle between sisters could have consequences of Biblical proportion. And in the end, only one sister will be left standing.

Then, after decades of marriage, it ended as every great love story does...in loss. After Cam’s death, Lilly takes a solitary road trip to their favorite spot on the wild coast of Maine, the place where they fell in love, and where their ghosts still dance. There she looks hard to her past—to a first love that ended in tragedy; to falling in love with Cam; to a marriage filled with exuberance, sheer life, and safety—to try to make sense of her future. It is a journey that begins with tender memories and culminates in a revelation that will make Lilly reevaluate everything she thought was true about her husband and her marriage.

Suddenly, the rules of this world have been rewritten and the dead now walk the earth. In Atlanta, a reporter covers the epidemic, showing viewers glimpses of increasing chaos from across the globe. Nowhere, it seems, is safe. The captain of an aircraft carrier hopes to save his crew from the disease by remaining at sea, but seemingly within moments zombies are wreaking havoc on the ship. THE LIVING DEAD follows different groups of people as they react to the crisis, working together or, for some, using their limited knowledge of zombies to try to survive. But is survival even possible? Or desirable?

Joined by members of the department’s Asian Crime Unit, Bosch relentlessly investigates the killing and soon identifies a suspect, a Los Angeles member of a Hong Kong triad. But before Harry can close in, he gets word that his young daughter Maddie, who lives in Hong Kong with her mother, is missing. Now, Bosch must travel across the Pacific to save his daughter and find the possible connection between the brutal murder and her disappearance. With the stakes of the investigation so high and so personal, Bosch is up against the clock in a new city, where nothing is at it seems.

“A perfect summer cocktail of sex, sun, and scandal.” —Kirkus Reviews

“A SUMMER AFFAIR is voy—People euristic fun.” “A gem of a summer read with a glamorous location, elite lifestyle, and Hilderbrand’s appealing take on the constant stress that fills the lives of women —Booklist everywhere.” “Characters are as complex and fragile as glassblowing artist Claire’s creations in Hilderbrand’s latest Nan—Library Journal tucket tale.”

Claire wants it all.... And in the eyes of her friends, she has it: a devoted husband, four beautiful children, even a successful career as an artist. But she also has a problem with setting limits. When serving as co-chair of Nantucket’s social event of the year propels Claire into the orbit of billionaire Lock Dixon, unexpected sparks begin to fly. Lock insists on working closely with her—often over a bottle of wine—and before long Claire can’t ignore the subtle touches and lingering looks. To her surprise, she can’t ignore how they make her feel, either. A SUMMER AFFAIR captures the love, loss, and limbo of illicit romance and unchecked passion as it takes the reader on a brave and breathless journey into the heart of one modern woman.

SETTING: London

Territories: U.S., and Open Market

♦♦ DEAD MEN’S BOOTS was published in GCP hardcover

Before he died, Castor’s fellow exorcist John Gittings made several calls asking for help and if Castor had answered them, John might still be alive. So when a smooth talking lawyer comes out of nowhere to claim the remains, Castor owes it to John’s unhappy ghost and even more unhappy widow to help. If only life were that simple. A brutal murder in King’s Cross bears all the hallmarks of an American serial killer supposedly 40 years dead, and it takes more good sense than Castor possesses not to get involved. He’s also fighting a legal battle over the body—if not the soul—of his possessed friend, Rafi, and can’t shake the feeling that his three problems are related. With the help of the succubus Juliet and paranoid data-fence Nicky Heath, Castor just might have a chance of fitting the pieces together before someone drops him down an elevator shaft....

Only one woman can get inside the mind of a murderer.... FBI Special Agents Monica Davenport and Luke Dante are sent to the quiet town of Jasper, Mississippi. Although the modi operandi are different, it soon becomes clear that the two murders there are linked— by the notes from the killer and by the victims’ fear. When the next woman goes missing, Davenport receives a call and a man’s voice whispers, “What scares you?” What Luke doesn’t know is that Monica has a special gift. The woman can see into a killer’s mind, retracing steps at the crime scenes, understanding the fierce need to stir terror in the victims. Now, the killer is totally focused on Monica. Finally, he’s found someone who understands. Someone broken, someone lost. Someone who knows the thrill of the hunt.

NYPD detective Jack Kanon is on a tour of Europe’s most gorgeous cities. But the sights aren’t what draw him—he sees each museum, each cathedral, and each restaurant through a killer’s eyes. Kanon’s daughter, Kimmy, and her boyfriend were murdered while on vacation in Rome. Since then, young couples in Paris, Copenhagen, Frankfurt, and Stockholm have become victims of the same sadistic killers. Now Kanon teams up with the Swedish reporter, Dessie Larsson. Every killing is preceded by a postcard to the local newspaper—and Kanon and Larsson think they know where the next victims will be. With relentless logic and unstoppable action, The Postcard Killers may be James Patterson’s most vivid and compelling thriller.
