Synopsis What Price Honor by : Dave Stern

The Starship Enterprise NX-01 is Earth's flagship - the first vessel to embark on a sytematic exploration of what lies beyond the fringes of known space. Led by Captain Jonathan Archer, eighty of Starfleet's best and brightest set forth to pave humanity's way to the stars. Tempered by a year of interstellar exploration, the crew has become a disciplined, cohesive, unit. And now, for the first time, they have lost one of their number. Bad enough that Ensign Alana Hart is dead. Worse, she died while attempting to sabotage the ship, killed by her nominal superior, armory officer Lieutenant Malcolm Reed. Even as they deal with the circumstances of her death, Archer, Reed and the rest of the crew find themselves caught squarely in the middle of another tense situation - a brutal war between two alien civilizations. But in the Alpha System nothing is what it seems. And before he can discover the secret behind what happened to Ensign Hart, Reed is forced once more to confront the reality of death.

Synopsis Price of Honor by : Jan Goodwin

A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK “Explains powerfully how Muslim women are affected by the rise of fundamentalism.”—Dan Rather In recent years, the expanding movement of militant Islam has changed the way millions think, behave, dress, and live, but nowhere has its impact been more powerfully felt than in its dramatic, often devastating effect on the lives of women. Award-winning journalist Jan Goodwin traveled through ten Islamic countries and interviewed hundreds of Muslim women, from professionals to peasants, from royalty to rebels. The result is an unforgettable journey into a world where women are confined, isolated, even killed for the sake of a “code of honor” created and zealously enforced by men. Price of Honor brings to life a world in which women have become pawns in a bitter power game, and gives readers a provocative look inside Muslim society today—in their own words.

Synopsis Cost of Honor by : Radclyffe

Secret Service Agent Oakes Weaver is in the midst of the biggest assignment of her career—leading the advance team for President Andrew Powell’s impending trip to Philadelphia where everyone expects he will be nominated to run for a second term. The last thing she needs is a tragedy among the president's inner circle that might not be an accident, or the sudden recruitment of Ari Rostof, a woman who might be a lot more than she seems. But Oakes doesn't get a say in policy. She only has to secure the president’s safety—at all costs. First Daughter Blair Powell and her spouse, Cameron Roberts, are among the reelection campaign members accompanying President Andrew Powell to Philadelphia. While the president may be protected by his Secret Service agents, those close to him are literally in the kill zone, and his adversaries will stop at nothing to further their cause—even mass murder.

Synopsis The Price of Honor by : David Hackworth

“[Hackworth is] honest, extremely intelligent, and perhaps the best military leader this country has had since Patton.” —Philadelphian Inquirer How many years? How many battlefields? How many men have What it takes to pay THE PRICE OF HONOR With a golden name and a platinum future, U.S. Army Special Forces Captain Sandy Caine was born to be a soldier. The latest in an eight-generation line of Caine men to serve duty, honor, country at West Point, Sandy’s character has been hammered out on an almost flawless anvil of military tradition. But one bad apple did fall from the Caine family tree. When he cracked under fire in Vietnam, Sandy’s father, Alex, dishonored the long gray line and sentenced his only child to a lifetime of brooding. Now, pulling tours of duty in one global hot spot after another, it occurs to Sandy that he knows a dozen ways to kill a man for every way he knows of being one. Little does he know that the truth of what happened to his father in Vietnam’s Central Highlands has transformed into a thirty-year legacy of deception perpetrated by Washington’s most powerful players. And the only person with the skills to help Sandy untangle the Caine family secrets is Abigail Mancini, an ambitious civilian reporter with the Washington Chronicle, Sandy and Abbie know that combining Special Forces and the Fourth Estate is a recipe for disaster, but living dangerously is its own reward. In times of war, the first casualty is the truth. It’s not long before Sandy and Abbie learn that digging it up decades later can get you killed.

Synopsis Honor's Price by : Mike Rossi

It’s been ten years since the ancestral lands of the Free Dwarf clans were conquered by the residents of the Abyss. Forced to take refuge in King Golloch’s great dwarven empire, the surviving free dwarves have scraped by as second-class citizens among their imperial brethren. Reduced to refugees, the Free Dwarves chaff under Golloch’s authoritarian rule, and are determined to one day reclaim their homes from the Abyssal Dwarves. Dinnidek, the young leader of the remnants of Clan Daamuz, fed up with the lies of Golloch’s court, hatches a plan to bring his people out of exile and retake their clan hold. With the help of his sister Diessa (the clan Stone Priest), his brother Daerun, and the other clan thanes, Dinnidek will lead his people across the High Sea of Bari, back to a land filled with nightmares. The journey will test the clan’s very existence, but honor demands that they risk it all for the clan’s survival.
