"A decade ago, Emily Carlino vanished after her car broke down on a California highway. She was presumed to be one of serial killer Ronny Lee Jessup's victims whose remains were never found.

He even visits regularly with Jessup in prison, desperate for answers about Emily's final hours so he may finally lay her body to rest. Then David meets Maddison Sutton, beguiling, playful, and keenly aware of all David has lost. But what really takes his breath away is that everything about Maddison, down to her kisses, is just like Emily. As the fantastic becomes credible, David's obsession grows, Maddison's mysterious past deepens--and terror escalates."--

The terrorist factory : ISIS, the Yazidi genocide, and exporting terror / by Desbois, Patrick,author.; Nastasie, Costel,author.; Logan, Lara,writer of foreword.; Temchin, Shelley,translator.; translation of:Desbois, Patrick.Fabrique des terroristes.English.;
With testimony drawn from more than 200 interviews with Yazidi survivors--girls, women, boys, and men--recorded during 11 investigative trips to refugee camps in Iraqi Kurdistan. The massacre of the Yazidi people by ISIS was nothing less than genocide. In refugee camps in Iraqi Kurdistan, the authors brought a skilled team to interview more than a hundred ISIS survivors and document what they experienced and saw. These former slaves observed their torturers and know from the inside the secret facilities that ISIS has kept hidden from the world. What their testimony reveals is an organization whose ambition is power, regardless of their claim to be "soldiers of God." Their fighters are paid with sex, money, and the power of life and death over captives. Their promised paradise is here and now, not after death. Men who didn't swear allegiance were executed. Women became slaves for sex or reproduction, and their offspring may still serve the cause. In mobile training camps, the captured children were drugged, indoctrinated, and taught to shoot Kalashnikovs, plant explosives, and handle suicide vests. They are the intended products of the terrorist factory. In this taut, disturbing account, the authors document a utilitarian genocide that still holds an implicit threat to other counties, including those in the West.

Bad, bad Seymour Brown / by Isaacs, Susan,1943-author.;
"When Corie Geller asked her parents to move from their apartment into the suburban McMansion she shares with her husband and teenage daughter, she assumed they'd fit right in with the placid life she'd opted for when she left the Joint Terrorism Task Force of the FBI. But then her dad gets a call from genial and slightly nerdy film professor, April Brown--one of the victims of the case he was never able to solve. When April was five years old, she'd emerged unscathed from the arson that killed her parents. Now, two decades later, she's asking for help. Someone has made another attempt on her life. It takes only a nanosecond for Corie and her dad to say Absolutely! and kick off a full-fledged investigation. If they don't move fast, whoever attacked April is sure to strike again. But while her late father, Seymour Brown, was the go-to money launderer for the Russian mob--a brilliant, volatile, and violent man with a penchant for Swiss watches and cheating on his wife--April Brown has no enemies. Popular with her students, esteemed by colleagues, her only connection to crime is her passion for the noir movies of Hollywood's golden age. Who would want April dead now? And who set that horrific fire, all those years ago? The stakes have never been higher. Yet as Corie and her dad have come to understand, they still live for the chase."--
