Alex Cross #36

Alex Cross is a brilliant psychologist—and a relentless hunter of killers for the FBI and DC Metro Police.

To his beloved Nana Mama, he’s still the boy she raised—and every morning, as he straps on his service weapon, she’s reminded just how dangerous his world has become.

“Be safe,” she tells him.

“Every day,” he promises.

But in Washington, DC, there are places even the police don’t go—an unseen underworld where violence thrives and rules don’t apply. And this time, Alex is stepping straight into it.

Each move pulls him deeper into the dark—and closer to a case that could shatter the promise he made to Nana … and cost him everything he holds most dear.

When Julia Barlow loses her job and her apartment, she has nowhere left to go but Pemberton, her family's sprawling seventeenth-century estate in rural Massachusetts. Officially, she's there to check in on her aging grandmother. Unofficially, she's hoping the old house will give her a place to disappear.

Instead, Pemberton begins to unravel her.

Every night, the grandfather clock stops at exactly 3:41 a.m. The lights flicker without warning. And a disembodied voice cries for help outside Julia's bedroom door.

As Julia digs into the house's dark history, she uncovers the story of a woman executed for witchcraft in 1692―and realizes the past may not be finished with Pemberton yet. When decades of family lies begin to surface, Julia must confront a terrifying truth: Pemberton may be haunted by women whose voices refuse to stay silent.

Finale to The Talisman Trilogy

Other Worlds Than These is the story of Jack Sawyer, whom readers first met when he was twelve, crossing America and 'the territories' to save his mother's life, and met again in Black House, where Jack faces a child killer and the Crimson King (among other evils). In Other Worlds Than These Jack must stop a rampaging gang of infected teenagers from America-side, and the forces of the mysterious Gullet at the edge of Mid-World, before it destroys our world and all worlds. Jack is older now; his Ka-tet is fraying; and his task, nearly impossible.

For rising young actors Kai Laramie and Juniper Castillo, being cast in the buzzy biopic Andy Warhol Never Gets Old is the opportunity they’ve been waiting for.

In Confronting America, Bill O’Reilly argues that the answer is not nostalgia or another government program. It is a return to informed citizenship, strong families, honest education, meaningful work, generosity, self-respect, and a willingness to put country and community ahead of self. His central challenge is straightforward: “Americans need to wise up.”

How do we do that?

Education: Our system—once the envy of the world—now ranks below many countries. Restore higher standards of performance so that grade, middle, and high schools prepare our young people for work and life... not unemployment or jail.

Family: The collapse of stable family structures is disastrous for young people—especially boys, who need fathers to be present in their lives. Let's honor, rather than denigrate, the values that support two-parent households.

Drugs: For misguided reasons, we've legalized and enabled drug use through so-called "harm reduction"—with predictable results. The law must help—and require—drug addicts to get clean and be productive members of society.

Work: It used to be normal and expected that people would work for a living. Now, not so much. We need to revive the importance of labor, of all kinds, at all levels, and honor the skills of all who show up and do their jobs.

Religion: America is becoming increasingly godless, and the decline of spirituality has weakened shared concepts of right and wrong. Americans don’t have to join the “God Squad,” but religion can reinforce social order—and everyone should respect the law and practice decent behavior.

Ultimately, Confronting America is both a warning and a challenge: America will improve when Americans do.
