- March roars / by Jennings, Maureen,author.;
"March roars in and Charlotte Frayne, P.I., receives a letter requesting her services to prevent "a grave miscarriage of justice." The sender, Miss Olivia Brodie, is an elderly resident in the Toronto House of Industry (the Poor House) who claims she witnessed two men on a nearby street, behaving in a suspicious manner. After learning that two Black teenagers have been charged with burglary on that same street, she is convinced the men she saw are the true culprits. Separately, Charlotte is hired by a Mrs. Emmeline Larkin, a woman from the opposite end of society's hierarchy, who says she is missing some precious jewelry. She fears the thief may be a member of her own social circle, possibly from the influential women's club to which she belongs. Investigating what seems at first like disparate cases takes Charlotte back to events from Toronto's history, and she discovers a time when there was, indeed, grave injustice"--- Subjects: Detective and mystery fiction.; Novels.; Private investigators; Women private investigators;

- Dear Papa : the letters of Patrick and Ernest Hemingway / by Hemingway, Ernest,1899-1961,author.; Adams, Stephen,1990-editor.; Hemingway, Brendan,editor.; Hemingway, Patrick,author.;
"An intimate and illuminating glimpse at Ernest Hemingway as a father, revealed through a selection of letters he and his son Patrick exchanged over the span of twenty years. In the public imagination, Ernest Hemingway looms larger than life. But the actual person behind the legend has long remained elusive. Now, his son Patrick shares the letters they exchanged over two decades, offering a glimpse into how one of America's most iconic writers interacted with his children. These letters reveal a father who wished for his children to share his interests-hunting, fishing, travel-and a son who was receptive to the experiences his father offered. Edited by and including an introduction by Patrick Hemingway's nephew Brendan Hemingway and his grandson Stephen Adams, and featuring a prologue and epilogue by Patrick reflecting on his father's legacy, Dear Papa is a loving and collaborative family project and a nuanced, fascinating portrait of a father and son"--- Subjects: Biographies.; Personal correspondence.; Personal narratives.; Hemingway, Ernest, 1899-1961; Hemingway, Patrick; Novelists, American;

- A boy in winter / by Seiffert, Rachel,author.;
"From the award-winning author of the Booker Prize-short-listed The dark room, a startling portrait of the Nazis' arrival in Ukraine as they move to implement the final solution. Otto Pohl, an engineer overseeing construction of a German road in Ukraine, awakens to the unexpected sight of SS men herding hundreds of Jews into an old brick factory. Inside the factory, Ephraim anxiously scans the growing crowd, looking for his two sons. As anxious questions swirl around him -- 'Where are they taking us? How long will we be gone?' -- he can't quell the suspicion that it would be just like his oldest son to hole up somewhere instead of lining up for the Germans, and just like his youngest to follow. Yasia, a farmer's daughter who has come into town to sell produce, sees two young boys slinking through the shadows of the deserted streets and decides to offer them shelter. As these lives become more and more intertwined -- Rachel Seiffert's prose rich with a rare compassion, courage, and emotional depth, an unflinching story is told: of survival, of conflicting senses of duty, of the oppressive power of fear and the possibility of courage in the face of terror"--- Subjects: War fiction.; Historical fiction.; Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945); Jews; World War, 1939-1945;
