-- Dreamers of the Day by Mary Doria Russell --Agnes Shanklin is a forty-year-old Ohio schoolteacher who-- after coming into a modest inheritance- takes a trip to Egypt and the Holy Land and walks right into the 1921 Cairo Peace Conference. Her simple middle-American ways turn her into a welcome sounding board for the likes of Winston Churchill, T.E. Lawrence and Lady Gertrude Bell as they work towards the creation of Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Israel and Jordan. She also catches the eye of charismatic German spy Karl Weilbacher.
-- Killer Heat by Linda Fairstein --It's August in New York City and Assistant District Attorney Alex Cooper is just about to celebrate a victory in a case against a rapist when she learns that a young woman's body was found brutally beaten in an abandoned building. Soon after, another body is found discarded off the Belt Parkway. Now she's under pressure and in a race to stop a murderer, hopefully before the tabloids get wind of it.
-- Another Thing To Fall by Laura Lippman --After quite literally stumbling onto the set of Man of Steel- a miniseries being filmed in her Baltimore neighborhood -- PI Tess Monaghan is hired to protect the show's wild 20-year-old star Selene Waites. The show's writer tells her the shoot has been plagued by vandalism. But the discovery of some questionable photos starring Selene- taken by a stalker that later hanged himself and the murder of a crew member, makes Tess think someone may be trying to do more than just end the series' production.
