Synopsis The Hard Bargain by : David Tucker
The Hard Bargain describes in vivid detail and elegant prose the clash of wills between a famous father and his hard-driving middle son. Richard Tucker, the American superstar tenor from the golden age of the Metropolitan Opera, demanded that his son become a surgeon. Rejecting his father’s wishes, David wanted to follow his father onto the opera stage. Their struggle over David’s future—by turns hilarious and humiliating, wise and loving—is played out in medical and musical venues around the world. The father and son strike a bargain, the hard bargain of the title, which permitted both dreams to flicker for a decade until one (the right one, it turns out) bursts into sustaining flame. This heartfelt memoir about a son’s struggle against the looming power of a magnetic father is conveyed in a moving narrative that one reviewer has called “the most dramatic exploration of the private life of a legendary singer in the annals of opera literature.”

Synopsis A Hard Bargain by : Jane Tesh
"Another winning entry in a consistently strong series." —Booklist Twenty years ago, teenager Callum Hinds went missing in England's Lake District. His uncle, suspected of having done the boy harm, was interviewed by the police. When the uncle committed suicide near his cottage in the Hanging Wood, everyone assumed it was a sign of guilt. The boy's body was never found. Now Callum's sister, Orla Payne, who never believed in their uncle's guilt, has returned to the Lakes and taken up a job in a residential library close to the Hanging Wood. She wants to find the truth about Callum's disappearance. Prompted by historian Daniel Kind, she tries to interest DCI Hannah Scarlett, head of Cumbria's Cold Case Review Team. Hannah is reluctant, but when Orla dies in strange and shocking circumstances, Hannah determines to find the truth about what happened to Callum—and to Orla. Soon Hannah finds herself racing against time as the past casts long shadows on the sunlit landscape of the lakes.

Synopsis Hard Bargain by : Kat Crimson
It’s Maya again. Yes, I’m still a sexaholic. Just ask my two boyfriends, Max and Foster. And Foster’s band mates. You can ask them too, seeing as how I just slept with all of them. Together. Well, maybe the term ‘slept with’ is misleading. It was more of a shared girlfriend, extreme bondage situation… at an underground sex club… in front of witnesses. And I loved every dirty second of it. So yeah, you could definitely say I’m an addict. Instead of a twelve step program, I’m giving way into temptation and going on tour with The Infidels, my very own sexy male harem fantasy. I want to be there to witness their imminent rise to rock-stardom, while feeding my addiction. Everything is going to be just perfect! All I need to do is keep my heart safe from Pace. No big deal… Too bad that sexy beast has other plans. Plans that include one very hard bargain. ** This Is A Smoking Hot Reverse Harem Contemporary Romance / Reverse Harem Ménage MM (and includes highly graphic scenes of an adult nature, including mm bisexual romance) If you can’t handle this type of heat, stay out of Maya’s kitchen…

Synopsis Hard Bargain by : Robert Shogan
With Hard Bargain, Robert Shogan offers an account of one of World War II's most dramatic chapters—the story of how Franklin D. Roosevelt secretly brokered a deal to provide the destroyers Winston Churchill needed to save Britain from destruction. At the center of the momentous events of 1940 are two extraordinary leaders: Churchill, the forthright pragmatist, and Roosevelt, the suave politician. As Hitler's war machine threatened to starve England into submission, these two men initiated a complex negotiation that would shatter all precedents for conducting foreign policy. FDR yearned to enter the war, but was handcuffed by domestic politics. Churchill had to plead for American intervention at a time when the United States was intensely isolationist. Drawing on archives on both sides of the Atlantic, Shogan masterfully recreates the President's maneuvers as FDR stepped around the Constitution in order to clinch the deal, a move that has had repercussions from Korea to the Persian Gulf.

Synopsis A Hard Bargain by : Lia Matera
A burned-out attorney investigates a strange small-town suicide in this mystery from the author of The Good Fight. Laura Di Palma’s days as a high-profile San Francisco lawyer are behind her. Four hundred miles north of the city in her peaceful hometown, she now spends her days hiking in the woods and helping her lover cope with his war injuries. But their retreat is soon interrupted by a private detective—Laura’s former flame—who’s looking for help with his disturbing new case . . . Karen McGuin was a troubled woman. Her husband, Ted, claims that, after her first suicide attempt, he’d leave a loaded gun in front of her every day to force her to choose life. But one day she finally chose the gun. Now Karen’s family wants Ted charged with murder. As Laura examines Karen’s past, she’s forced to question the status of her own life. But self-reflection quickly takes a backseat after Ted almost dies in an explosion. Suspicious of foul play, Laura knows she must uncover the truth before a killer strikes again . . . “Matera skillfully weaves Laura’s dissatisfaction with her own circumstances into the investigation of Karen’s death, taking a thought-provoking look at the dangers in relationships that grow too close.” —Publishers Weekly “[A] welcome respite from the mystery-by-formula crowd.” —Kirkus Reviews
