JASON BOURNE in mass market! al ation n r e t In eller! s t s e B

Robert Ludlum’s The Bourne Sanction Written by Eric Van Lustbader

“A hearty serving of meat and potatoes action adventure, just the sort of fare that both Ludlum’s and Lustbader’s fans relish.” — Publisher’s Weekly on The Bourne Legacy Jason Bourne must confront a nightmare version of himself—an amoral, heartless killer—in this new novel in Robert Ludlum’s bestselling series. Bourne needs to regain his life as David Webb so he accepts an invitation from his beloved mentor, Dominic Specter, to join the linguistics department at Georgetown. It’s a relief to leave the Bourne identity behind, but Jason soon finds himself in a life-or-death confrontation. Specter tells him that a former student and son of his old friend was killed by Muslim extremists known as the Eastern Brotherhood. Their leader is a man named Semian Icoupov, and he must be stopped because his next terrorist target is believed to be right here in America. Meanwhile inside CI, a battle is brewing for control over the agency. In order to show the incompetence of its current director, two Pentagon operatives plan to accomplish what CI never could—hunt Bourne down and destroy him.

A Father and Son's Horseback Quest For Healing The Horse Boy : A Father's Quest to Heal His Son Rupert Isaacson This is a genuinely heartwarming drama of a family that travels to the ends of the earth to help their child. When his son Rowan was diagnosed with autism, Rupert Isaacson was devastated. Consumed with grief, denial, and irrational shame, Isaacson worried that he might never be able to communicate with his son. And then something amazing happened: with riding lessons from his neighbor's mare Betsy, Rowan's uncontrollable energy calmed and miraculously, he started to talk. Willing to try anything to help him, Isaacson came up with a crazy idea—he would take Rowan and his wife, Kristin, to Mongolia, a land of horses and shamans. THE HORSE BOY is the extraordinary and moving tale of that adventure—a father taking his son across the ancient landscapes where horses originated, where Rowan undergoes intense shamanistic healings, makes his first friend in a Mongolian boy named Tomoo, rides horses and even a reindeer, and learns to open up and connect with the world for the first time.

Thirty years old, living in a rundown apartment, and working at a soul-sucking secretarial job that’s going nowhere, Julie Powell needs something to break the monotony of her life. So she invents a deranged assignment: she will take her mother’s dog-eared copy of Julia Child’s 1961 classic Mastering the Art of French Cooking, and she will cook all 524 recipes. In the span of one year. At ﬁrst she thinks it will be easy. But as she moves from the simple to the more complex, she realizes there’s more to mastering the art of French cooking than meets the eye. With Julia’s stern warble always in her ear, Julie soon realizes she has turned her kitchen into a miracle of creation—and saved her soul.

His evil brother Roag, determined to make him pay for a wrong he didn’t commit, kidnaps Shade and forces him to bond with Runa, the one woman who has the ability to steal his heart—the one woman who will never understand the darkness that lives within him. Runa thought Shade was the perfect guy—until she found him in bed with two other women. Fleeing from the mortifying scene, Runa is attacked by a werewolf. Changed forever, she is determined to exact revenge on Shade—until she is kidnapped by Roag. Now trapped in his dungeon, Runa and Shade develop an eternal bond as lifemates. But Roag’s quest for vengeance threatens everything, forcing Runa and Shade to escape, before their destiny—and Roag’s evil plans—destroys them all.

Heiress Lori Granger looks like a million bucks— and is famous for giving much of her fabulous fortune away. But her generosity has outstripped her checkbook, and not even her glamorous image and come-hither eyes can save her now. Certainly not with Jackson James in the picture.... Hired by her dad’s estate to control her spending, this CPA with linebacker shoulders and gray flannel suits invades her space, insults her dog, and refuses to loosen his grip on her trust fund. Not a man to cross the line with a client, even when the attraction is hotter than a pair of Lori’s highest slingbacks, Jackson agrees to help her find a husband to fulfill a condition of her father’s will. Yet sharing her dreams with him makes Lori wonder: could this infuriating Mr. Straight be the one to make them all come true?

In 1986, Susan Jane Gilman and her friend Chloe dreamed of hitting the road as modern-day female Kerouacs. Inspired by a place mat at the International House of Pancakes, they mapped out a trip circling the globe, then headed west—to China. Young, brilliant, and beautiful, they were eager to conquer the world. Unfortunately, the world had other ideas. Armed only with the collected works of Nietzsche, an astrology book, and more chutzpah than sense, the two quickly found themselves on an epic misadventure. In the dusty, alien streets of Communist China, they were forced to confront their limitations amid culture shock and government surveillance. By turns funny, erotic, and harrowing, their voyage of discovery became a real-life international thriller, transforming them forever.

Over the years, as Warren Buffett’s influence and affluence have grown, one thing has remained the same—his honest and optimistic approach toward business and life. Now listeners can discover the secret of his success through such quotes as “With enough insider information and a million dollars, you can go broke in a year.” In this wise and winning collection, assembled by bestselling author Janet Lowe, Warren Buffett speaks on diverse subjects such as investing, the Internet economy, family and friends, paying taxes, and much more. It also examines the thinking that prompted the second richest man in the world to give 85% of his wealth to the first richest couple (Bill and Melinda Gates) to distribute to charity.

Some choices will change your life forever Travis Parker has everything a man could want: a good job, loyal friends, and a waterfront home in small-town North Carolina. In pursuit of the good life, he holds the conviction that a serious relationship would cramp his style. That is, until Gabby Holland moves in next door. Despite his attempts to be neighborly, the attractive redhead seems to have a grudge against him. Still, Travis can’t stop trying to ingratiate himself with her, and his persistent efforts lead them both on a journey that neither could have foreseen.

“It is impossible in only one column to do justice to this masterful ﬁrst novel....It is, to use the most overused word of the decade, AWESOME.” —New York Sun

In a country ruled by fear, no one is innocent. Stalin’s Soviet Union strives to be a paradise for its workers. But in this society, millions live in fear... of the State. A war hero with a beautiful wife, Leo lives in relative luxury in Moscow. His only ambition has been to serve his country. For this greater good he has been arrested and interrogated. Then the impossible happens. A murderer is on the loose— killing at will. The only way for Leo to save his family is to uncover him. But in a society that is ofﬁcially paradise, it’s a crime against the State to suggest that a murderer—much less a serial killer–is in their midst. Exiled from home, with only his wife remaining at his side, Leo must ﬁnd and stop a criminal that the State won’t admit exists. 6

A serial killer of unprecedented savagery is at large. His targets: homicide cops haunted by murder cases they couldn’t solve. His calling card: quotations from Edgar Allan Poe. For crime-beat reporter Jack McEvoy, it’s the story of a lifetime—if he can stay alive to write it.

The Poet lives to kill again. But FBI agent Rachel Walling and former LAPD detective Harry Bosch are on the case, racing from the heat of the desert to the darkest corners of L.A. to hunt down a fiend of unimaginable cunning.

“Chilling….The author roars through the final one hundred pages of the book delivering twists, turns and thrills in every paragraph.” —Los Angeles Times

Safe Haven, Wisconsin. Population 907. A tiny community of families and retirees, nestled between Big Lake and Little Lake MacDonald in the north woods. One road in, one road out, thirty miles away from everything. A town so small and peaceful they don’t even have a full time police force. But when a helicopter crash-lands one night, all hell breaks loose. Soon the phone lines are cut, cell phones are jammed, and the road blocked. Then residents begin dying in a shower of gory violence. Who is murdering the defenseless people of this town and why? Will anyone in Safe Haven survive?

Sink your teeth into this deliciousness Newly vamped Sarah Dearly wants her normal life back, but fate is ﬁghting against her. She tries to get a nice regular job and gets staked at the interview, only to be rescued by a masked vampire who calls himself the Red Devil. Then a wallﬂower-turned-witch curses her, making her a bloodthirsty, sun-allergic nightwalker—the worst vampire there is. As if all that weren’t bad enough, she can’t get married because her 600-year-old boyfriend, Thierry, is in a centuries-long marriage of convenience he can’t escape. As Sarah’s nightwalker tendencies make her more dangerous, even to those she loves, she’ll have to counteract that curse, unmask the increasingly intriguing Red Devil, and—oh yeah—get a commitment from her man. But if that’s what it takes to secure her happiness, Sarah is ready...even if it means embracing her inner vamp to do it.

—Emma Holly, USA TODAY bestselling author of Demon’s Fire

Wraith, a seminus demon-vampire with a tortured past, is wild, strikingly attractive, and the most skilled ﬁghter in both the human and demon realms...and he’s dying. Given only weeks to live, he has only two options: seduce a human woman in order to take possession of her invulnerablity charm...or die. Serena is a treasure hunter and has lived a charmed life—literally. At the age of six, a fatal disease nearly killed her, until her mother passed down her charm to Serena, making her immune to injury and death. But there is a price: she will lose her charm to the one she is intimate with. Worse, with the charm no longer keeping her disease in check, she will die. But as she starts to fall for the young and dying Wraith, she realizes her own loneliness, and starts to wonder if living forever is worth the price.

Houston Assistant District Attorney Jillian Samuels doesn’t believe in making wishes before you blow out your birthday candles. She doesn’t believe in the Tooth Fairy or Santa Claus either. And she most certainly doesn’t believe in love. But when her beloved mentor passes away and an exboyfriend-and-now-current-boss makes it clear that keeping her job depends on rekindling their affair, she leaves Houston and her high-powered job behind for the mountains of Colorado. With the magical wedding veil that brought such joy and love to her friends stuffed in a suitcase at their insistence, Jillian sets out for a new life without any complications. But love has a funny way of sneaking up on you when you least expect it.

Sean King and Michelle Maxwell, back from their harrowing and near-fatal adventure in the blockbuster #1 bestseller Simple Genius, return in a mesmerizing new thriller. A daring kidnapping turns a children’s birthday party at Camp David into a national security nightmare, but the hostage is not who anyone would expect. The First Lady enlists the services of King and Maxwell to bring the child back safely. Years ago, King saved her then-senator husband from an assassin’s bullet; whether they shared anything else is their secret. With Michelle still recovering from her own demons the pair are pushed to the limit, with forces aligned on all sides against them, and the line between friend and foe impossible to deﬁne...or defend.

FINAL COVER TO COME

Sent to Fallujah on an intelligence mission, Captain Ryan Evans wakes up in a bunker cell, the prisoner of an Iraqi insurgent. Images of bombed buildings and the broken bodies of women and children are projected in front of his immobile face. Among them are the wife and two children of Evans’s captor, Mustafa Kahlid. “Obviously you Americans can’t understand the evil that you are inﬂicting on innocents in our land, so I will teach you,” Kahlid warns Evans. “You have a choice: kill seven children by breaking their bones—without breaking their skin—here in this cell. I will teach you how. Or one of our cells in America will kill your wife and child.” Little does he know that his prison cell experience will make him a key suspect in a series of gruesome serial killings at home.

When his son Rowan was diagnosed with autism, Rupert Isaacson was devastated, afraid he might never be able to communicate with his child. But when Isaacson, a lifelong horseman, rode their neighbor’s horse with Rowan, Rowan improved immeasurably. He was struck with a crazy idea: why not take Rowan to Mongolia, the one place in the world where horses and shamanic healing intersected? THE HORSE BOY is the dramatic, truly one-of-a-kind story—of a family willing to go to the ends of the earth to help their son, and of a boy learning to connect with the world for the ﬁrst time.

FINAL COVER TO COME

Back in the 1990s, Team USA used to be called the “Dream Team.” But since then, the USA men’s basketball team has fallen on hard times. It was up to legendary Duke University coach Mike Krzyzewski to pick up the pieces and find the right fit for some of the NBA’s top stars to come together as a team and reclaim the gold medal in the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing. Much more than a celebratory basketball audiobook, this is Coach K’s first-person account of how he worked with, and managed, such stars as Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Jason Kidd, and other NBA millionaires, to put their egos aside and work in stride towards a common goal. It’s the ultimate book about team play, management, and above all, leadership. ALSO AVAILABLE IN AUDIO FROM MIKE KRZYZEWSKI:

We make decisions every day on topics ranging from personal investments to schools for our children to the meals we eat to the causes we champion. Unfortunately, we often choose poorly. The reason, the authors explain, is that, being human, we all are susceptible to various biases that can lead us to blunder. Our mistakes make us poorer and less healthy; we often make bad decisions involving education, personal ﬁnance, health care, mortgages and credit cards, the family, and even the planet itself. Thaler and Sunstein invite the listener to enter an alternative world, one that takes our humanness as a given. They demonstrate how thoughtful “Choice Architecture” can be established to nudge us in beneﬁcial directions without restricting freedom of choice.

People starting out in business tend to seek step-by-step formulas or specific rules, but in reality there are no magic bullets. Rather, says veteran entrepreneur Norm Brodsky, there’s a mentality that helps street-smart people solve problems and pursue opportunities as they arise. He calls it “the knack” and it has made all the difference to the eight successful start-ups of his career. Now, Brodsky, and his co-columnist and author Bo Burlingham, tell stories about real companies with real problems and how one could apply ‘the knack” to his or her own business. They offer listeners essential advice, including: • Follow the numbers-that’s the best way to spot problems before they become life threatening • Don’t get so close to the problem that you lose all perspective—and much more!
