The Snow Boy is a phantom to be greatly feared—when he is known to be in the area, a child is sure to vanish.  Police Chief Nick Catesby is haunted by the unsolved disappearance of a young boy from his small, peaceful New Jersey town seven years before. The nightmare begins anew when a little girl goes missing, followed quickly by two teenaged boys. Nick has only one suspect, disgraced professor and town drunk Preston Howard, whose arrogance has left him with nothing more than his pride, a sea of whiskey, and his only daughter, with whom Nick is falling in love. Preston insists that he is not a suspect but a witness to a strange and terrifying boy who only appears between dusk and dawn. Nick regards the story as the rantings of an alcoholic, but sightings of the boy lead to a trail of missing and murdered children going back three centuries, Nick and Preston are plunged into a race to save the children of Wessex Township—and the woman they both love.  PRAISE FOR THE THIRTEENTH CHILD "With THE THIRTEENTH CHILD, David Dean has pulled off both the creation of a new kind of monster, and a fine and unnerving novel around that creation. Gabriel, the ancient, murderous creature at the book's heart, is by turns frightening, pathetic, and genuinely otherworldly, and THE THIRTEENTH CHILD left me intrigued, moved, surprised, entertained and impressed." —Lisa Morton, four-time Bram Stoker Award-winning author of TRICK OR TREAT?: A HISTORY OF HALLOWEEN  “If you enjoy being scared to go to bed alone, this is your kind of read. With a well-written, well-paced, yet steadily climbing, plot, The Thirteenth Child is a terrifying journey that will make the reader crazy with intrigue that turns to fear and then crashes into sheer horror at the end. It's not the customary roller coaster ride mentioned in many reviews. Instead, it's a fast uphill trip in a police cruiser.” —Fran Rizer, SleuthSayers

When Megan Guthrie goes missing from her school playground, followed quickly by two teenage boys, Nick’s nightmare begins anew.

Architecture of the 1930s: Recalling the English Scene

Rizzoli

This book grew from an opportunity to study a third world air force fighting an externally supported insurgency.  The players were the Royal Moroccan Air Force and the Polisario, the latter trying to wrest control of the Western Sahara from the Kingdom of Morocco.  The United States has also been a player in the Morocco-Polisario war as the source of much of Morocco’s war material, especially the weapons used by the Royal Moroccan Air Force.  Help from the United States was especially important when the Polisario deployed Soviet-built SA-6 surface-to-air missiles to counter the growing effectiveness of the Royal Moroccan Air Force.  For many reasons, the United States and the US Air Force were not able to assist the Moroccans effectively.  The Moroccan-Polisario-US scenario that provides the basis for this study was a tiny aspect of US foreign and military policy in the early 1980s.  But it shows a political-military problem that deserves a good deal of thought now.  That problem simply stated is: How is the United States going to exert political-military influence in the third world during the next twenty years?  Clearly, overall US influence in the third world will be a combination of political, military, economic, and social activity.  But the military, in many cases, will be the most visible form of assistance, and one upon which the recipient nation will depend for immediate results.  Are the military components as instruments of national policy able to act effectively in the third world?  If not, what needs to be done?  Colonel Dean’s study makes a significant contribution to the growing body of literature on low-intensity conflict.
