The Fat Years, By Chan Koonchung, trans. Michael Duke

This is the first novel by jack-of-alltrades Chan Koonchung. Banned in Chan's homeland, The Fat Years is propelled by a smart dystopian conceit. In 2011, a month of Chinese history goes missing: 28 days in February and March separating a global economic meltdown from the beginning of "China's Golden Age of Ascendancy". Weirdly, the majority of citizens are too satisfied with their lives to notice the lacuna. A few people – an unhappy few as it turns out – are immune to the communal well-being, and wonder where the time has gone.

The Sins of the Mother,

By Danielle Steel

As a way of making up for time lost, Olivia spends months every year planning a lavish holiday that everyone in her family will enjoy. This summer she has arranged a dream trip in the Mediterranean on a luxurious yacht, which she hopes will be the most memorable vacation of all. Her lavish gesture every year expresses her love for them, and regret at all the important times she missed during her children’s younger years. Her younger daughter, Cassie, a hip London music producer, refuses the invitation altogether, as she does every year. Her older daughter, Liz, lives in her mother’s shadow, with a terror of failure as she tries to recapture her dream of being a writer. And her sons, John and Phillip, work for Olivia, for better or worse, with wives who wish they didn’t. In the splendor of the Riviera, this should be a summer to remember. But as with any family gathering, there are always surprises, and things don’t always turn out as ones hopes.

Port Mortuary, By Patricia Cornwell Port Mortuary, the title of Patricia Cornwell’s 18th Scarpetta novel, is literally a port for the dead. In this fast-paced story, a treacherous path from Scarpetta’s past merges with the high tech highway she now finds herself on. As the chief of the new Cambridge Forensic Center in Massachusetts, a joint venture of the state and federal governments and MIT, Scarpetta is confronted with a case that could shut down her new facility and ruin her personally and professionally. A young man drops dead, apparently from a cardiac arrhythmia, eerily close to Scarpetta’s new Cambridge home. But when his body is examined the next morning, there are stunning indications that he may have been alive when he was zipped inside a pouch and locked insider the Center’s cooler. In Port Mortuary, Cornwell brings Scarpetta together with Marino, Benton, and Lucy in an intimate way that is reminiscent of the early novels.

Crusher by Niall Leonard The day Finn Maguire discovers his dad bludgeoned to death in a pool of blood, his dreary life is turned upside down.

Prime suspect in his father’s murder, Finn must race against time to clear his name and find out who hated his dad enough to kill him.

SuperVan and I: Sarel van der Merwe (Author), Steve Smith (Author)

Sarel van der Merwe is a certified, cardcarrying racing legend the Clint Eastwood of South African motor sport. Since he and his moustache have been racing, Sarel has been super-competitive, scratching paint off race cars from Kyalami to Daytona. It is a rip-roaring read, from the iconic cars he has driven to the many women who have spiced up his life. Best of all, Sarel doesn’t care about spilling the beans.
