Five days in November [sound recording] / by Hill, Clint.; Bobb, Jeremy.; McCubbin, Lisa.;
Read by Jeremy Bobb ; with an introduction by the author."The New York Times bestselling authors of Mrs. Kennedy and Me share the stories behind the five infamous, tragic days surrounding JFK's assassination--alongside revealing and iconic photographs--published in remembrance of the beloved president on the fiftieth anniversary of his death. Clint Hill will forever be remembered as the lone secret service agent who jumped onto the car after President Kennedy was shot, clinging to its sides as it sped toward the hospital. Even now, decades after JFK's presidency, the public continues to be fascinated with the Kennedys--America's royal family. To mark the fiftieth anniversary of President John F. Kennedy's assassination, Hill recounts his indelible memories of those five days leading up to, and after, that tragic day in November 1963. Hill, as Jackie's guard, experienced those days firsthand. Alongside the famous photos everyone is familiar with, Hill provides a moment-to-moment narration evoking the feelings and emotions behind the images--clearing up the persistent conspiracy misconceptions along the way. He also shows us the little-seen photos of Jackie both before and after the terrible event, describing the poignant moments they shared, during that pivotal moment in history. Told movingly by a man who still wishes he could undo it all, Five Days in November is a rare and deeply personal look at the assassination that affected the entire world and changed the United States forever"--Provided by publisher.

Eden Wing is a brilliant student. He's about to graduate a year early from Ross University of the Sciences, with honors, and already has an internship lined up back in the Republic.

Ten years ago, Eden's brother Daniel was known as Day, the boy from the streets who led a revolution that saved the Republic of America. He went from being a hunted criminal to a national hero in less than a year. Day has spent the past decade piecing together his memory of his time in the Republic, pretending to enjoy life in Antarctica's capital, Ross City, and quietly hiding out from the world, even if it's meant giving up June, the great love of his life. As long as he can keep his little brother safe, that's all that matters. But Eden isn't safe. As the two brothers struggle to accept who they've each become, they grow more distant from one another than they've ever been. LSC

House of correction : a novel / by French, Nicci,author.;
In this heart-pounding standalone thriller from bestselling author Nicci French, a woman accused of murder attempts to solve her own case from the confines of prison--but as she unravels the truth, everything is called into question, including her own certainty that she is innocent. When a body is discovered in Okeham, England, Tabitha is shocked to find herself being placed in handcuffs. It must be a mistake. She'd only recently moved back to her childhood hometown, not even getting a chance to reacquaint herself with the neighbors. How could she possibly be a murder suspect? As Tabitha is shepherded through the system, her entire life is picked apart and scrutinized -her history of depression and medications, her decision to move back to a town she supposedly hated ... and of course, her past relationship with the victim, her former teacher. But most unsettling, Tabitha's own memories of that day are a complete blur. From the isolation of the correctional facility, Tabitha dissects every piece of evidence, every testimony she can get her hands on, matching them against her own recollections. But as dark, long-buried memories from her childhood come to light, Tabatha begins to question if she knows what kind of person she is after all. The world is convinced she's a killer. Tabatha needs to prove them all wrong.

Come Through Your Door [electronic resource] : by O'Connor, Carlene.aut; CloudLibrary;
Against the stark beauty of southwest Ireland, Carlene O’Connor’s atmospheric County Kerry mystery series continues, and this time veterinarian Dimpna Wilde must reckon with a stalker whose obsession has turned deadly . . . “Isn’t this how every ghost story begins?” The roads around Dingle are whisper-quiet in the small hours of a rainy night, empty of the tourists who throng the town by day. As she and her assistant, Patrick, drive home after an already traumatic day, Dimpna Wilde isn’t expecting to see anyone, let alone her employee, Niamh, standing in the road, dressed in a nightgown and soaked to the skin. Dazed and distraught, Niamh passes out after muttering incoherently, and at her apartment, Dimpna and Patrick make a grisly discovery. There’s a dead woman in Niamh’s bed, shot in the head, a hunting rifle beside her. When Niamh comes to, she has no memory of the day’s events, and no idea of the woman’s identity. All she can tell Detective Inspector Cormac O’Brien with certainty is that for weeks, she’s felt like she was being watched. Suspicion falls on Niamh’s new boyfriend, Mark Gallagher, who her friends have not yet met. But as Dimpna and Cormac try to track him down, they realize there’s no evidence Mark Gallagher ever even existed. All of Niamh’s texts and photos of him are missing or deleted, and he has no social media presence. What lingers is a nagging unease, especially when they learn of another, similar murder years ago—another woman found shot to death in her bed, a woman who had complained of being stalked, just like Niamh. As Dimpna delves deeper into a twisting case, she feels someone watching her too, targeting her business, her animals, her family—even her sanity, willing to do anything to stop her from disclosing a terrifying truth . . .General adult.

The ghosts that haunt me : memories of a homicide detective / by Ryan, Steve(Homicide detective),author.;
"After years working in homicide, retired Toronto detective Steve Ryan reflects on six cases he will never forget. Retired detective Steve Ryan worked in Toronto's homicide squad for over a decade. For him, the stories of Toronto's most infamous crimes were more than just a headline read over morning coffee--they were his everyday life. After investigating over one hundred homicides, the tragedies Steve saw will never leave him and he'll never forget the victims whose deaths he investigated. Some things were so terrible they were impossible to forget, even after his retirement from the police force. In The Ghosts That Haunt Me, Steve reflects on just a few of the many cases that have greatly impacted him. In these pages, he remembers six cases, eight people whose lives were senselessly taken, that he still thinks about nearly every day. While hard to tell, these stories were harder to live through. But somewhere in between the crime and the heartache, there is a glimmer of hope that good eventually does prevail and that healing can come after grief."--
