A Theory of Relativity

Gordon McKenna is just out of college when his beloved sister and her husband are killed in a car accident, leaving behind a baby daughter, Keefer. Gordon and his parents, having helped raise Keefer nearly every day of her life, assume that they will now bring up Keefer as their own. But they are shocked when the paternal grandparents launch a campaign to gain custody of the young girl, raising issues so provocative that they drive the McKennas to despair and then outrage. The legal tug-of-war ultimately becomes a crucible in which the capacity and limitations of family love are repeatedly tested and the frontiers of the human heart pushed to unimagined limits.

From master crime writer Joseph Wambaugh, the acclaimed author of such classics as The Onion Field and The Choirboys, comes the extraordinary true story of a firefighter who may have been, according to U.S. government profilers, "the most prolific American arsonist of the twentieth century."John Orr rose through the ranks of the Glendale Fire Department to become fire captain and one of southern California's best-known and respected arson investigators. But while Orr busted a string of petty arsonists, there was one serial criminal he could not track down. Homes, retail stores during business hours, fields of dry brush in stifling summer heat -- little was safe from the fire lover's obsession to see them burn.But after years of terror and destruction, the Fire lover finally left behind a precious clue that helped investigators discover his true identity, to the shock and disbelief of the firefighting community.

Sphere of Influence

Mark Beamon has always been an unconventional FBI agent -- and years of putting truth ahead of protocol have him languishing in a dead-end job in the Bureau's Phoenix office. But before he can officially be put out to pasture, our nation's war against terrorism pulls him back to the front lines.Videotapes arriving at television stations across the country bear a terrifying message: A terrorist cell inside the United States possesses a rocket launcher and will begin attacking civilian targets within days. As panic takes hold, the FBI calls on Beamon for one last assignment. Suspecting a connection between the Mob and these fanatics, he is sent undercover to meet a Mafia don who might have information concerning the terrorists.That simple meeting goes horribly wrong when Beamon's partner is executed after his cover is blown. Barely escaping with his life, Beamon is determined to find the source of the leak and, more important, in one final act of self-destructive heroism, to exact revenge.As he spirals into a world of government corruption, murder, and betrayal, Beamon comes to know the mysterious Christian Volkov -- a master criminal with seemingly limitless power. Soon it is clear that only through Volkov will Beamon be able to avenge his friend's death and unravel the conspiracy threatening his country.Performed by Jeff McCarthy

This is the book that started it all! The basis for the smash hit Tony Award-winning Broadway musical, Gregory Maguire's breathtaking New York Times bestseller Wicked views the land of Oz, its inhabitants, its Wizard, and the Emerald City, through a darker and greener (not rosier) lens. Brilliantly inventive, Wicked offers us a radical new evaluation of one of the most feared and hated characters in all of literature: the much maligned Wicked Witch of the West who, as Maguire tells us, wasn’t nearly as Wicked as we imagined.
