- Society of lies : a novel / by Brown, Lauren(Lauren Ling),author.;
"When a young woman turns up dead on her college campus, her sister doesn't believe it was an accident-and when she starts to dig for answers, her investigations take her closer to home than she ever would have imagined in this thrilling debut novel from an exciting new talent. Every year, Maya loves heading back to Princeton for her reunions-she may have graduated a decade ago, but it's always fun to see old faces and take a walk through her own history. And this year is even more special because her little sister, Naomi, is about to graduate from her alma mater. But what should have been a dream weekend becomes Maya's worst nightmare when she gets a call no one ever wants-Naomi is dead. The police are saying it's an overdose, but Maya knows for a fact that Naomi would never touch drugs. As Maya attempts to piece together the last semester of Naomi's life, she starts to realize there might be a lot of things Naomi never told her. Like the fact that she'd joined Sterling Club, the most exclusive social club on campus-the same one Maya belonged to-despite Maya warning her away. And if Maya had to guess, she'd say Naomi was also tapped for the secret society within it. The more Maya uncovers, the more terrified she becomes that Naomi's decision to follow in her footsteps might have been exactly what got her killed. Because Maya's time at Princeton wasn't as wonderful as she always pretended it was-after all, her sister wasn't the first young woman to turn up dead. And every clue keeps leading Maya back to the past, and to the people she holds nearest and dearest"--- Subjects: Thrillers (Fiction); Campus fiction.; Novels.; Princeton University; Murder; Secrecy; Secret societies; Sisters; Truthfulness and falsehood; Young women;

- Miracles and wonder : the historical mystery of Jesus / by Pagels, Elaine H.,1943-author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."From a renowned National Book Award-winning scholar, an extraordinary new account of the life of Jesus that explores the mystery of how a poor young man inspired a religion that reshaped the world. Over the past two thousand years, countless personalities have been projected onto the enigma we know as Jesus: a first-century rabbi, capable of miraculous healing, or a magician faking cures; a Prophet, or a deluded visionary; a heretical Jew, or God in human form. In this groundbreaking work of accessible scholarship, Princeton University professor and bestselling author Elaine Pagels explores a wide range of sources -- including the Bible, the earliest reports of Jesus's life, and the secret "gnostic gospels," discovered in the 20th century -- to break down these contradictions and paint a richer and more complex portrait of Jesus in his own time than ever before. As Christians became the largest community of any religious tradition in the world, Pagels argues, people have constructed and reconstructed Jesus through the lens of imagination, his image shaped by the social, political, and economic challenges of their own time. But the most fascinating years of all were the early ones when a young Jewish man with a scanty following, executed humiliatingly as an insurrectionist, was transformed by his followers into the Jesus of Christianity. Powerfully written and drawing on decades of research, Miracles and Wonder is an essential history for anyone looking for a deeper understanding of Jesus and his monumental afterlife"--- Subjects: Biographies.; Personal narratives.; Jesus Christ;
