<p>Lovers and Madmen is dominated by two central themes: politics and love. Julienne Busic s memoir takes the reader through the events which shaped her life with Croatian dissident husband, Zvonko assassination attempts, threats from the Yugoslav secret police, flights from country to country, enforced poverty and deprivation and characterizes the love which led to the greatest sacrifice of all: a sentence of life in prison for the political hijacking of a TWA jet. Less than twenty years after that desperate act, Yugoslavia broke apart in a spasm of war and Croatia is now an independent state. The message contained in the leaflets thrown during the hijacking served as a prophecy of this disintegration and the Serbian aggression, first in Croatia and Bosnia, and most recently in Albanian-populated Kosovo. Julienne Busic served thirteen years in prison and was released on parole in 1989.</p>

Jessica P. Morrell

The daughter of a cop growing up in a small town with three brothers . . . nobody was surprised Mel was a bit--untamed. She left all that when she married and moved to the big city. But after a traffic accident claimed the lives of her husband and child, Mel returned home for the emotional support of her family and a familiar place to get through the grief. Her first day on the job answering phones at her brother's office as a favor gets her a gun in the face. Welcome home! That's the start of an unusual crime spree and only Mel has the info, the luck, and the spunk to tie the separate pieces together and uncover the truth behind the murders and mayhem. She may have come home looking for peace and time to heal, but if adventure and mystery come knocking--well, Mel Addison is ready and willing to play. The crimes may be the easy part, though. There's a new cop in town with an eye for Mel and her own heart can't seem to decide what to do.
