So close / by Day, Sylvia,author.;
Widower Kane Black remains ruinously married to his late wife, Lily. Grief has hollowed him, until he sees a woman with his wife's inimitable beauty on Manhattan's streets. He whisks her up to his towering penthouse, where Lily's memory is a possessive, beguiling force. Aliyah, Kane's mother, deals in science. "Lily" has dangerous control over Kane, and there can be only one queen on this throne, while Amy, Kane's sister-in-law, has been bloodied by betrayal, and now intends to claim what she's owed. Three women circle the man who unquestioningly accepts the return of his beloved long-dead wife. He's happier than ever, and he'll do anything to stay that way.

The war of nerves : inside the Cold War mind / by Sixsmith, Martin,author.; Sixsmith, Daniel,author.;
Includes bibliographic key to online citations and index."More than any other conflict, the Cold War was fought on the battlefield of the human mind. Nearly thirty years since the collapse of the Soviet Union, its legacy still endures: not only in our politics, but in our own thoughts and fears. Drawing on a vast array of untapped archives and unseen sources, Martin Sixsmith vividly recreates the tensions and paranoia of the Cold War, framing it for the first time from a psychological perspective. Revisiting towering personalities like Khrushchev, Kennedy and Nixon, as well as the lives of the unknown millions who were caught up in the conflict, this is a gripping account of fear itself - one which is more resonant than ever today"--Publisher's description.
