Synopsis Friends of the Family by : Tommy Dades

“One of the most spectacular cases of police corruption in the city.” —New York Times Friends of the Family is a look deep inside the most notorious case to rock the NYPD: The story of Louis Eppolito and Stephen Caracappa, the two police detectives who moonlighted as mob hit men. As told by Tommy Dades and Michael Vecchione—the cop and District Attorney investigator who solved New York’s coldest case—along with co-writer David Fisher, Friends of the Family is shocking true crime in the tradition of Nicolas Pileggi’s Wiseguys and Underboss by Peter Mass—a chilling, in-depth examination of what the New York Daily News calls “the worst betrayal of the badge in the NYPD’s history.”

Synopsis A Friend of the Family by : Marcia Willett

The beloved author of First Friends returns to the intwined relationships, loves, and rivalries of Devon in this “captivating comedy of manners” (Booklist). In A Friend of the Family, Marcia Willett returns to beloved characters Kate Webster and Cass Wivenhoe and the story that began with First Friends. Yet it is one of their friends, Felicity Mainwaring, who takes center stage. Everyone knows Felicity is a happily married woman—that is, married to her husband and happily dallying with her paramour George. When Felicity is widowed, everyone expects George to pop the question. And he does. But his intended bride is not Felicity. With her usual generous helping of tears and laughter, Marcia Willett again provides her fans with a treat to be savored. “This sequel to First Friends . . . makes for engrossing reading.” —Publishers Weekly First published in the UK as Thea’s Parrot

Synopsis Friend of My Youth by : Alice Munro

A “wickedly funny” (Newsweek) collection of ten short stories from Nobel Prize–winning author Alice Munro, “one of the most eloquent and gifted writers of contemporary fiction” (Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times). “Each of her collections demonstrates such linguistic skill, delicacy of vision, and . . . moral strength and clarity.”—Chicago Tribune A woman haunted by dreams of her dead mother. An adulterous couple stepping over the line where the initial excitement ends and the pain begins. A widow visiting a Scottish village in search of her husband’s past—and instead discovering unsetting truths about a total stranger. The miraculously accomplished stories in this collection not only astonish and delight, but also convey the unspoken mysteries at the heart of all human experience. The mastery—the almost numinous ability to say the unsayable—makes Friend of My Youth a genuine literary event.

And when Amanda, a family friend who's visiting from Australia, says she'll move in and babysit to help make it happen, it seems like the stars have finally aligned for Erin's exciting new career. But there's something Amanda isn't telling her. Something that will destroy Erin's carefully curated persona online. ___________________________ Praise for HAPPY EVER AFTER: 'Kept me gripped and kept me guessing' Erin Kelly, author of He Said/She Said 'Excellent domestic noir, chillingly plausible...
