Synopsis The Night Gate by : Peter May
THE 12 MILLION COPY BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE LEWIS TRILOGY AND THE CHINA THRILLERS AWARD WINNING AUTHOR OF THE CWA DAGGER IN THE LIBRARY 2021 'Enzo MacLeod is one of the most unusual crime solvers I have ever met.' BookBrowse 'No one can create a more eloquently written suspense novel than Peter May.' New York Journal of Books In a sleepy French village, the body of a man shot through the head is disinterred by the roots of a fallen tree. A week later a famous art critic is viciously murdered in a nearby house. The deaths occurred more than seventy years apart. Asked by a colleague to inspect the site of the former, forensics expert Enzo Macleod quickly finds himself embroiled in the investigation of the latter. Two extraordinary narratives are set in train - one historical, unfolding in the treacherous wartime years of Occupied France; the other contemporary, set in the autumn of 2020 as France re-enters Covid lockdown. And Enzo's investigations reveal an unexpected link between the murders - the Mona Lisa. Tasked by the exiled General Charles de Gaulle to keep the world's most famous painting out of Nazi hands after the fall of France in 1940, 28-year-old Georgette Pignal finds herself swept along by the tide of history. Following in the wake of Da Vinci's Mona Lisa as it is moved from château to château by the Louvre, she finds herself just one step ahead of two German art experts sent to steal it for rival patrons - Hitler and Göring. What none of them know is that the Louvre itself has taken exceptional measures to keep the painting safe, unwittingly setting in train a fatal sequence of events extending over seven decades. Events that have led to both killings. The Night Gate spans three generations, taking us from war-torn London, the Outer Hebrides of Scotland, Berlin and Vichy France, to the deadly enemy facing the world in 2020. In his latest novel, Peter May shows why he is one of the great contemporary writers of crime fiction. LOVED THE NIGHT GATE?

Synopsis Night Gate by : Isobelle Carmody
Rage Winnoway’s closest friends have always been her four dogs: Bear, Billy Thunder, Elle, and Mr. Walker. When Rage sets off for the hospital where her mother lies in a coma, the dogs and the neighbor’s goat tag along. On the way, they run into the firecat, who talks them into going through a magical gate. And something wonderful happens! Each of Rage’s friends is transformed. Bear becomes a real bear; Billy Thunder, a teenage boy; Elle, a warrior woman; Mr. Walker, a small, large-eared gentleman; and the goat, a satyr with an inferiority complex. Together, Rage and her companions embark on a quest to save the world of Valley, a journey that is somehow tied to Rage’s family. In this brilliant tale of courage and transformation, Isobelle Carmody captures the magic of Narnia and the whimsy of Wonderland without losing sight of the real world and all its difficulties.

Synopsis Gate of the Sun by : Elias Khoury
A New York Times Notable Book This “imposingly rich . . . a genuine masterwork” vividly captures the Palestinian experience following the creation of the Israeli state (New York Times Book Review). After Palestine is torn apart in 1948, two men remain alone in a deserted makeshift hospital in the Shatila camp on the outskirts of Beirut—entering a vast world of displacement, fear, and tenuous hope. Khalil holds vigil at the bedside of his patient and spiritual father, a storied leader of the Palestinian resistance who has slipped into a coma. As Khalil attempts to revive Yunes, he begins a story, which branches into many: stories of the people expelled from their villages in Galilee; of the massacres that followed; of the extraordinary inner strength of those who survived; and of love. Khalil—like Elias Khoury—is a truth collector, trying to make sense of the fragments and various versions of stories that have been told to him. His voice is intimate and direct, his memories are vivid, his humanity radiates from every page. Khalil lets his mind wander through time, from village to village, from one astonishing soul to another, and takes us with him. Gate of the Sun is a Palestinian Odyssey and the first magnum opus of the Palestinian saga. Beautifully weaving together haunting stories of survival and loss, love and devastation, memory and dream, Khoury humanizes the complex Palestinian struggle as he brings to life the story of an entire people.

Synopsis Nine Gates of the Kingdom of Shadows by : Joshua Free
NINE GATES OF THE KINGDOM OF SHADOWS... The reissue compact nostalgia "Amethyst Edition" of the original 2009 "Necronomicon Shadows: The Nine Gates of the Kingdom of Shadows" (Liber-9) companion to the authentic Sumerian/Babylonian Liber-N "Necronomicon" (Lapis Edition), the now infamous bestselling classic that launched itself from the modern underground movement known as the Mardukites. "More than simply a book imagined by a fantasy horror writer, or the product of some intensive Mesopotamian investigations in the 1970's, the NECRONOMICON is a piece of human consciousness, a primordial archetype that has existed in the backwaters of the mind for thousands of years. During a "new age" of revivals in ancient paganism and earth oriented spirituality, people have flocked to the ranks of neo-paganism, Wicca, Druidry and Scientology, and for good reason: the state of the world is in demand for a complete shift in human awareness. And while H.P. Lovecraft may have been alluding to such a tradition nearly one hundred years ago (even if only subconsciously) and the 1960's witnessed a gigantic practical rebirth in such traditions, it was really in the late 1970's that a separate but synchronous mainstream awakening occurred: the renewed interest in the the most antiquated Sumerian and Babylonian mysteries, specifically the role of the ANUNNAKI, Great Gods who once roamed the Earth and became the figures of our ancient mythologies..." The Mardukite Research Organization was founded on the Summer Solstice in 2008 during the underground release of "Arcanum" by Joshua Free. At its inception, the group was extraordinarily small but pointedly grew exponentially as soon as it began to make an online internet presence. In 2009, the Mardukite Chamberlains began releasing their underground publications as part of an extraordinarily extensive version of what many people's debut into the realm of Mesopotamian esoterica had been - the Necronomicon. The original versions of the 2009 'Mardukite Core' were all elaborately designed limited edition handcrafted tomes that later only appeared in the consolidated anthology titled 'Necronomicon Anunnaki Bible'. It consisted of the 'Necronomicon (of Joshua Free)' (Liber-N) in June of 2009 and three subsequent titles, 'Necronomicon Liturgy & Lore' (Liber-L), the 'Necronomicon Gatekeeper's Grimoire' (Liber-G) and the 'Nine Gates of the Kingdom of Shadows' or 'Necronomicon Shadows' (Liber-9). Although the entire 'Year-1' anthology has been available exclusively as the 'Necronomicon Anunnaki Bible' for over four years, the 'Mardukite Truth Seeker Press' has decided to release a 'nostalgia edition' in 2012 of the original 'Mardukite Core' for those who are new to the mysteries and to rekindle the original flavor of the mystique that was ascertained by those involved with the early development of the materials. In early 2012 a condensed, compact and abridged edition of the 'Necronomicon Anunnaki Bible' appeared on the scene as a reissue of the original 'lapis edition'. To coincide with this effort, a similarly designed reissue of the remaining 2009 'gem series' (as it was called then) is intended for release. Following popular demand, the previously released 2012 'Lapis Edition' Necronomicon actually included more material than simply 'Liber-N' and thus differed from the original edition, these companions: 'Liber L', 'Liber G' and 'Liber-9', were all designed to match the original format and content as much as possible given the preexisting difference in production style. EDITION NOTE: This is a compact and abridged version excerpting key elements from the complete "Year 1" work of the Mardukite Chamberlains released in the Liber-N]L+G+9 anthology as the "Necronomicon Anunnaki Bible" edited by Joshua Free.
