Just watch me : a novel / by Lindsay, Jeffry P.,author.;
"From the author of the wildly successful Dexter series, comes a new mesmerizing bad guy we can root for: Riley Wolfe is a master thief, expert at disguise and violent when he needs to be. It's no accident, though, that Riley targets only the .1% and is willing to kill when necessary: He despises the degenerate and immoral possessors of the objects that he steals. In this series launch, Riley targets an extraordinary set of crown jewels, a heist that will hopefully land him with a sensational collection of heirlooms and leave their owners bereft and embarrassed--or worse. Yes, these jewels are worth millions, but the true attraction for grabbing the jewels comes down to one simple fact: These jewels are absolutely unstealable. There is just no way anyone could get past the airtight security and dream of getting away with even a single diamond from the Imperial Collection. Riley Wolfe has always liked a challenge. But the heist is only the beginning. Riley is pursued by a worthy opponent, a cop barely a step behind him. And dancing around them both is a woman, a master forger and sometimes ally of our murdering Robin Hood protagonist."--

Immortal / by Tan, Sue Lynn,author.;
"Plagued by chronic pain and fatigue, Liyen is the scion of the Tianxian court, a mortal kingdom enclosed by the walls of the Immortal Realm. The people there are the bulwark against mortal incursions into this sacred place, and in return they are protected from the demonic Asura. But when her father--the Lord of Tianxia--steals a magical flower from the immortal queen they owe fealty to, his punishment becomes Liyen's burden: the throne of Tianxia. Before he died, he asked Liyen to do one thing: free their people from the Queen of the Golden Desert. Resolved to do exactly that--all while trying to maintain her tenuous control of her own ministers--she is escorted to the Immortal Realm by the dark and dangerous God of War. She has seen him in action before: he was the one who rained fire upon their home to reclaim what her father had stolen, and he was also the one who stood by as her father died. Liyen hates this mysterious warrior ... and hates that he has depths that are not reflected in the legends she's heard about him. Both of them are hiding secrets. Both of them have duties that require them to do whatever must be done, no matter who might be hurt. But both of them are also alone. Both are also in pain. And they are finding out the person who might be their greatest enemy is the one who knows your heart the best"--

Away from the dead / by Bergen, David,1957-author.;
Includes bibliographical references."Away from the Dead is set in the chaotic times of the Russian revolution, and traces the lives of various characters connected through love and family and loyalty. The novel follows the lives of a bookseller south of Kiev who deserts the army and writes poetry to his lover back home; an adopted Mennonite/Ukrainian peasant who runs with the anarchists only to discover that love and the planting of crops is preferable to killing; and in which a Mennonite estate owner steals a young mother's child. Bookseller Julius Lehn is drawn by his first wife into the patriarchal world of a Mennonite colony beside the Dnieper River, where he learns that pacifists can be as vicious as those who fight. After his wife dies, he gains affection for Inna, who has been cast away from her adopted family's estate, and is the sister of Sablin, the peasant who fights with the anarchists and discovers that violence is the domain of both the rich and the poor. By late 1919, Lehn's bookshop in Ekaterinoslav (modern day Dnipro) has been destroyed, and he has returned to be with Inna, whose child is gone, and with the colony under attack. The anarchists, the Bolsheviks, the Whites -- all come and go, each claiming freedom and justice. In a violent world with no end, Sablin and Lehn and Inna choose love, hoping that one can, against all odds, turn away from the dead"--
