A confrontation with the outlaws ends as Weldon puts a bullet through the rear window of Clyde's stolen automobile. Ten years later, Second Lieutenant Weldon Holland and his sergeant, Hershel Pine, escape certain death in the Battle of the Bulge and encounter a beautiful young woman named Rosita Lowenstein hiding in a deserted extermination camp. Eventually, Weldon and Rosita fall in love and marry and, with Hershel, return to Texas to seek their fortunes. There, they enter the domain of jackals known as the oil business. They meet Roy Wiseheart--a former Marine aviator haunted with guilt for deserting his squadron leader over the South Pacific--and Roy's wife Clara, a vicious anti-Semite who is determined to make Weldon and Rosita's life a nightmare. It will be the frontier justice upheld by Weldon's grandfather, Texas lawman Hackberry Holland, and the legendary antics of Bonnie and Clyde that shape Weldon's plans for saving his family from the evil forces that lurk in peacetime America and threaten to destroy them all" --<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Gloriousent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:14736432026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Guinn, Jeff<br/>ISBN 9781410469915<br/>Summary "New York Times-bestselling author of The Last Gunfight, Jeff Guinn turns his eye for evocative detail and history to a sweeping novel of the Old West, weaving a compelling tale of life in the Arizona Territory in 1872. We've all got mistakes in our past we'd rather forget. Cash McLendon has always had an instinct for self-preservation, one that was honed by an impoverished childhood and life with an alcoholic father barely scraping by on the streets of Saint Louis in 1872. He's always had a knack for finding and capitalizing on the slightest opportunities, choosing the path of financial security over happiness or real friends. He eventually builds himself up from a Saint Louis street urchin to the son-in-law and heir apparent to industrial mogul Rupert Douglass. Though it lacks passion, his life seems securely set: a wife, a career, property, standing. But when tragedy strikes, all of his plans and his entire future dissolve in an instant. McLendon's instinct for survival kicks in; he flees Saint Louis, and Douglas assigns his enforcer, an ominous skull-cracker with steel-toed boots, to track him down. With nothing to lose, McLendon attempts to reconcile with an old flame--a woman he was nearly engaged to but put aside in exchange for the life now in shambles. He heard through the grapevine that she and her father moved their dry-goods store out west, to a speck-on-the-map mining town named Glorious, in the Arizona Territory. There, McLendon tries to win her back, and in the process discovers a new way of life at the edge of the final American frontier. But he can't outrun his past forever"--<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The summer queen : a novel of Eleanor of Aquitaineent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:15268422026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Chadwick, Elizabeth.<br/>ISBN 9781410485236<br/>Summary Eleanor of Aquitaine, the legendary 12th century queen of France and later of England, is one of the most powerful and irrepressible women in medieval history, and her story of romance, scandal and political intrigue has fascinated readers for centuries.

It was in order to balance clock time with the movement of the earth. Byron Hemming knew this because James Lowe had told him, and James was the cleverest boy at school. But how could time change? The steady movement of hands around a clock was as certain as their golden futures. Then Byron's mother, late for the school run, makes a devastating mistake. Byron's perfect world is shattered.<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The silver branchent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:12754802026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Sutcliff, Rosemary<br/>ISBN 9780192757449<br/>Publisher Oxford University Press,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Hunting the eaglesent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:15444982026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Kane, Ben, author.<br/>ISBN 9780099580751<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Pilgrim : the greatest crusadeent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:11029572026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Jackson, James H.<br/>ISBN 9780719569241<br/>Publisher John Murray,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Sashenkaent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:10348932026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Montefiore, Simon.<br/>ISBN 9780593056387<br/>Publisher Bantam Press,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The shadow princeent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:13717092026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Morgan, Terence.<br/>ISBN 9780330543453<br/>Publisher Pan,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The kitchen houseent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:14010432026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Grissom, Kathleen.<br/>ISBN 9780552779128<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The scarlet lionent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:8559832026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Chadwick, Elizabeth.<br/>ISBN 9780751536591<br/>Publisher Sphere,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title False god of Rome : Vespasian IIIent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:13937792026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Fabbri, Robert.<br/>ISBN 9780857897435<br/>Publisher Atlantic Books.<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Die vreemdelingent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:15072882026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Austin, Lynn N.<br/>ISBN 9781431611102<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The trader's dreament://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:13929862026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Jacobs, Anna.<br/>ISBN 9781444711325<br/>Publisher Hodder & Stoughton,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Chakaent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:15163922026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Mofolo, Thomas Kunene, Daniel P. Mbao, Wamuwi.<br/>ISBN 9780795707148<br/>Publisher Kwela,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Fiona : a falcon for a Queen ; Blake's reachent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:4463862026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Gaskin, Catherine.<br/>ISBN 9781850520122<br/>Publisher Peerage Books,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Brothers at warent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:11941162026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Rutherford, Alex<br/>ISBN 9780755347544<br/>Publisher Headline Review,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title House in quill court.ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:15404402026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Betts, Charlotte.<br/>ISBN 9780349404530<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The red necklace/Silver blade omnibusent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:13570742026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Gardner, Sally.<br/>ISBN 9781444006278<br/>Publisher Orion Children's,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The captive heartent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:11709232026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Small, Bertrice.<br/>ISBN 9781410414380<br/>Publisher Camden,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Brothers at warent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:12550242026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Rutherford, Alex<br/>ISBN 9780755347568<br/>Publisher Headline Review,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Carrie's warent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:12496782026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Bawden, Nina.<br/>ISBN 9780141333304<br/>Publisher Puffin,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The twelve tribes of Hattieent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:14000532026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Mathis, Ayana.<br/>ISBN 9780099558705<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The barefoot queenent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:15113972026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Falcones de Sierra, Ildefonso.<br/>ISBN 9780552779722<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Petals in the storment://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:16294602026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Putney, Mary Jo.<br/>ISBN 9780451404459<br/>Publisher Topaz,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The book of night womenent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:11710452026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor James, Marlon.<br/>ISBN 9781851687213<br/>Publisher Oneworld,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The glovemakerent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:13521122026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Brown, Stacia M<br/>ISBN 9780099553687<br/>Publisher Arrow,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The taming of the queenent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:15370872026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Gregory, Philippa.<br/>ISBN 9781471132995<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The boy kingent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:13928362026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Whyte, Jack.<br/>ISBN 9780751550788<br/>Publisher Sphere,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The Aubrey-Maturin chronicles.

A country at war with itself, a family divided and betrayed. . . Malaya, 1955. Lydia Cartwright returns from visiting a sick friend to an empty house. The servants are gone. The phone is dead. Where is her husband Alec? Her young daughters, Emma and Fleur? Fearful and desperate, she contacts the British District Officer and learns that Alec has been posted up country. But why didn't he wait? Why did he leave no message? Lydia's search takes her on a hazardous journey through war-torn jungle. Forced to turn to Jack Harding, a man she'd vowed to leave in her past, she sacrifices everything to be reunited with her family. And while carrying her own secrets, Lydia will soon face a devastating betrayal which may be more than she can bear . . . Dinah Jefferies was born in Malaya in 1948 and moved to England at the age of nine. She has worked in education, once lived in a 'rock 'n roll' commune and, more recently, been an exhibiting artist. She spends her days writing, with time off to make tiaras and dinosaurs with her grandchildren. The Separation is her first book.<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title A humble companionent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:13423842026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Graham, Laurie<br/>ISBN 9781780875484<br/>Publisher Quercus,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Manuscript found in Accraent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:13918352026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Coelho, Paulo.<br/>ISBN 9780007513925 9780007514243 9780007520619<br/>Publisher HarperElement,<br/>Summary After lying undiscovered for over 700 years, a manuscript holding the answers to a city's final questions is unearthed.

A privileged elder son, and stammeringly shy, Harry Cane has followed convention at every step. Even the beginnings of an illicit, dangerous affair do little to shake the foundations of his muted existence - until the shock of discovery and the threat of arrest cost him everything. Forced to abandon his wife and child, Harry signs up for emigration to the newly colonised Canadian prairies. Remote and unforgiving, his allotted homestead in a place called Winter is a world away from the golden suburbs of turn-of-the-century Edwardian England. And yet it is here, isolated in a seemingly harsh landscape, under the threat of war, madness and an evil man of undeniable magnetism that the fight for survival will reveal in Harry an inner strength and capacity for love beyond anything he has ever known before. In this exquisite journey of self-discovery, loosely based on a real life family mystery, Patrick Gale has created an epic, intimate human drama, both brutal and breathtaking. It is a novel of secrets, sexuality and, ultimately, of great love.<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The lady of the riversent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:12879692026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Gregory, Philippa.<br/>ISBN 9781847374608<br/>Publisher Simon & Schuster,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Redeeming the rogueent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:13231592026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor MacMeans, Donna.<br/>ISBN 9780425242674<br/>Publisher Berkley Sensation,<br/>Summary While on a mission in Washington, D.C., Michael Rafferty, an agent for the Crown, must assume the role of a diplomat and needs Lady Arianne Chambers, who is well versed in high-society circles, to teach him the finer points of being a gentlemen.<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title A tale of two citiesent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:11285612026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Sebag-Montefiore, Mary. Ablett, Barry, ill. Dickens, Charles.<br/>ISBN 9780746096987<br/>Publisher Usborne,<br/>Summary Set during the French Revolution, the lives of Charles Darnay and his family are changed forever in this retelling of Charles Dickens' classic story.<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The palace of illusionsent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:10538652026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Divakaruni, Chitra Banerjee.<br/>ISBN 9780330458535<br/>Publisher Picador,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The captain's frozen dreament://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:15221762026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Lee, Georgie<br/>ISBN 9780263247992<br/>Summary Can He Salvage her Reputation?

She is shocked and powerless when French gendarmes take away her closest friend, Rebekah Feldmann, and her family, and send them to a detention camp for deportation to an unknown, ominous fate. The local German military commandant makes Gaëlle's family estate outside Lyon into his headquarters. Her father and brother are killed by the Germans; her mother fades away into madness and ill health. Trusted friends and employees become traitors. And by accident, Gaëlle begins a perilous journey with the French Resistance, hoping to save lives to make up for the beloved friend she could do nothing to help. Taking terrifying risks, Gaëlle becomes a valuable member of the Resistance, fearlessly delivering Jewish children to safety under the eyes of the Gestapo and their French collaborators. Then she is suddenly approached by the German commandant with an astonishing, dangerous plan to save part of France's artistic heritage. Conducted in secret, flawlessly carried out, her missions will mark her for years, when she is falsely accused of collaboration at the end of the war. Orphaned and alone, she begins a new life in Paris, with the ghosts of the past always close at hand. Gaëlle's life will take her from Paris to New York, from a career as a Dior model to marriage and motherhood, unbearable loss, and mature, lasting love. She returns to Paris to run a small museum, honoring victims of the Holocaust. But her label as a collaborator remains.<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The queen's ladyent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:13643252026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Kyle, Barbara.<br/>ISBN 9781780335599<br/>Publisher Constable & Robinson,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Sworn sword : a novelent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:14856272026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Aitcheson, James<br/>ISBN 9781402280764<br/>Summary "January, 1069: Less than three years after the Battle of Hastings, two thousand Normans march to subdue the troublesome province of Northumbria.

All of Mexico seems about to fall into his hands until a report comes from the coast of the arrival of a new force of Spaniards with more than three times his numbers, sent not to strengthen him but to attack him and wrest the conquest from him.

She easily captivates the noblemen, most notably Henry Percy, future Earl of Northumberland and, hopeful of her father's approval, Anne agrees to a secret betrothal. Controlling Cardinal Wolsey, though, will not countenance an alliance which could threaten his position. Exiled to the north, Henry is forced into a marriage of duty, whilst Anne's fortunes reverse when she bewitches the King himself. Unwilling to be simply his mistress, Anne will settle for nothing but the throne. But great power brings even greater enemies, and Anne's past actions - and long-kept secrets - might prove to be her undoing--"--Page 4 of cover.<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Frog musicent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:16342522026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Donoghue, Emma<br/>ISBN 9781447249764<br/>Summary "Emma Donoghue's explosive new novel, based on an unsolved murder in 1876 San Francisco. Summer of 1876: San Francisco is in the fierce grip of a record-breaking heatwave and a smallpox epidemic. Through the window of a railroad saloon, a young woman called Jenny Bonnet is shot dead. The survivor, her friend Blanche Beunon, is a French burlesque dancer. Over the next three days, she will risk everything to bring Jenny's murderer to justice ... if he doesn't track her down first. The story Blanche struggles to piece together is one of free-love bohemians, desperate paupers and arrogant millionaires; of jealous men, icy women and damaged children. It's the secret life of Jenny herself, a notorious character who breaks the law every morning by getting dressed: a charmer as slippery as the frogs she hunts. In thrilling, cinematic style, FROG MUSIC digs up a long-forgotten, never-solved crime. Full of songs that migrated across the world, Emma Donoghue's lyrical tale of love and bloodshed among lowlifes captures the pulse of a boomtown like no other."<br/>Format: Regular print<br/>Title The Boleyn deceit : a novelent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:15056282026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Andersen, Laura, author.<br/>ISBN 9780091956493<br/>Summary The regency period is over and William Tudor, now King Henry IX, sits alone on the throne.

The boy who was expected to serve as the captain?s personal valet has been injured and a replacement must be found immediately. Given the choice of prison or a life at sea, John soon finds himself on board, meeting the captain, just as the ship sets sail. The ship is the Bounty , the captain is William Bligh, and their destination is Tahiti. Their journey, however, will become one of the most infamous in naval history. Mutiny is the first novel to explore all the events relating to the Bounty?s voyage, from the long passage across the ocean to their adventures on the island of Tahiti and the subsequent forty-eight-day expedition toward Timor. This vivid retelling of the notorious mutiny is packed with humor, violence, and historical detail, while presenting an intriguingly different portrait of Captain Bligh and Mr. Christian than has ever been presented before. Internationally bestselling author John Boyne has been praised as ?one of the best and original of the new generation of Irish writers? by the Irish Examiner. Now, with Mutiny , he has created an eye-opening story of life---and death---at sea.<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title A duchess to rememberent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:13572192026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Brooke, Christina.<br/>ISBN 9780312534141<br/>Publisher St. Martin's Paperbacks,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Playing with my heart : a Shakespearean love storyent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:15549202026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Wilding, Valerie, author.<br/>ISBN 9781407138947<br/>Summary Patience is the stepdaughter of the head carpenter at The Globe theatre.

She is shocked and powerless when French gendarmes take away her closest friend, Rebekah Feldmann, and her family, and send them to a detention camp for deportation to an unknown, ominous fate. The local German military commandant makes Gaëlle's family estate outside Lyon into his headquarters. Her father and brother are killed by the Germans; her mother fades away into madness and ill health. Trusted friends and employees become traitors. And by accident, Gaëlle begins a perilous journey with the French Resistance, hoping to save lives to make up for the beloved friend she could do nothing to help. Taking terrifying risks, Gaëlle becomes a valuable member of the Resistance, fearlessly delivering Jewish children to safety under the eyes of the Gestapo and their French collaborators. Then she is suddenly approached by the German commandant with an astonishing, dangerous plan to save part of France's artistic heritage. Conducted in secret, flawlessly carried out, her missions will mark her for years, when she is falsely accused of collaboration at the end of the war. Orphaned and alone, she begins a new life in Paris, with the ghosts of the past always close at hand. Gaëlle's life will take her from Paris to New York, from a career as a Dior model to marriage and motherhood, unbearable loss, and mature, lasting love.

(Humphrey Taman)<br/>ISBN 9780340924884<br/>Publisher Sceptre,<br/>Summary "When Mahmoud Abd El Zahir is sent to govern the remote Egyptian oasis of Siwa in the late 1890s, he knows the danger he faces - two of his predecessors were murdered. But having been accused of disloyalty to the current regime and its British overlords, he has little choice. Rather than stay behind in Cairo, his Irish wife Catherine insists on going too, hoping to reinvigorate their relationship." "Once at Siwa, Mahmoud finds himself not only fiercely resented but caught between two warring factions, while Catherine, with her Western ways and seemingly avaricious interest in the local archaeological sites, succeeds in alienating the entire community - all except for a beautiful young woman, herself an outcast, whose attempt at friendship spells disaster." "In this fascinating novel, Bahaa Taher weaves together several voices to capture a society at war with itself and a marriage in trouble. At once a complex tale of love and an exploration of power, occupation and rebellion, SUNSET OASIS tells of people struggling to free themselves from the grip of the past. It is a striking, haunting work by one of the Arab world's most celebrated writers."--Jacket.<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The brideent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:9902122026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Davidson, Carolyn.<br/>ISBN 9780373772209<br/>Publisher HQN/Harlequin Enterprises Limited,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Sovereignent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:8971432026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Sansom, C.

Of 'n misdaad en sonde dieselfde saak is, is nie alte duidelik nie, maar die hof het tyd, stompe om op te sit, en iemand wat kan skryf. En getuies. Dit sukkel, want die verrigtinge word onderbreek deur bobbejane, voëls en vlakvarke wat 'n lawaai opskop wanneer nodig en onnodig. Iedereen veg om 'n eie waardigheid en waarheid, net die regverdiges nie; hulle is nie seker wat hier bewys moet word nie. En wanneer die waarheid openbaar word, is dit nie die waarheid wat mens verwag het nie. Uit al hierdie dinge probeer dominee Johannes sin maak van wat die liefde is. Lê die liefde in al sy vorme nie dalk iewers tussen daardie twee klippe wat Moses van die berg af teruggebring het nie?"--Back cover.<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Mentje, kind van pas-opkampent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:16014642026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Joubert, Irma.<br/>ISBN 9780799385939<br/>Summary "Tydens die tweede wereldoorlog beland Mentje, 'n negejarige Nederlandse meisie, saam met Jode in 'n geheime kamp. Ek is maar net hier, dink sy. Net maar nog 'n mond wat moet kos kry, nog 'n lyf wat gewas moet word, nog 'n asem in die hut. Nog 'n kind. En die here, Pappa se hemelse Vader, het saam met Pappa verdwyn. Sy veg om oorlewing tydens die slag van Arnhem en die honger Winter van 1944 tot 1945. Aan die ander kant van die wereld, in Suid-Afrika, sluit Tinus as 'n valskermsoldaat by die britse leer aan. Dit is nie soseer trou aan die Britse ryk wat hom daartoe dryf nie, maar die vergoeding wat hy daarvoor gaan kry want hy wil hulle familieplaas terugkoop. Toe hy by Arnhem gewond word, stel Mentje haar lewe in gevaar om hom te red. Na die oorlog bevind Mentje haar in Suid-Afrika en midde-in drie geslagte van die verskeurde Van Jaarsvelds. Verlies en versoening, mensliewendheid en vergifnis dra Mentje en Tinus deur moeilike tye."--<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Lord John and the hand of devilsent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:12447982026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Gabaldon, Diana.<br/>ISBN 9780099278252<br/>Publisher Arrow,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Warrior of iceent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:15781772026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Willingham, Michelle<br/>ISBN 9780263255751<br/>Summary Physically and emotionally scarred, Lady Taryn knows no man would want her for a wife.

'Time was not something then we thought of as an item that possessed an ending, but something that would go on for ever, all rested and stopped in that moment. Hard to say what I mean by that. You look back at all the endless years when you never had that thought. I am doing that now as I write these words in Tennessee. I am thinking of the days without end of my life. And it is not like that now...' Having signed up for the US army in the 1850s, aged barely seventeen, Thomas McNulty and his brother-in-arms, John Cole, go on to fight in the Indian wars and, ultimately, the Civil War. Orphans of terrible hardships themselves, they find these days to be vivid and alive, despite the horrors they both see and are complicit in. Moving from the plains of the West to Tennessee, Sebastian Barry's latest work is a masterpiece of atmosphere and language. Both an intensely poignant story of two men and the lives they are dealt, and a fresh look at some of the most fateful years in America's past, Days Without End is a novel never to be forgotten.<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Pureent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:13167742026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Miller, Andrew.<br/>ISBN 9781444724288<br/>Publisher Sceptre,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Measuring the worldent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:9908222026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Kehlmann, Daniel<br/>ISBN 9781847241146<br/>Publisher Quercus,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title A duke never yieldsent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:13849472026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Gray, Juliana.<br/>ISBN 9781472204851<br/>Publisher Eternal Romance,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Hereward : the devil's armyent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:13527222026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Wilde, James.<br/>ISBN 9780593065013<br/>Publisher Bantam Press,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Harp o'goldent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:4147052026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Bateman, Teresa. Weber, Jill.<br/>ISBN 9780823415236<br/>Publisher Holiday House,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Fires in the darkent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:13405262026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Doughty, Louise.<br/>ISBN 9780743440363<br/>Publisher Pocket,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Veiled passionsent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:11404442026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor MacNish, Tracy.<br/>ISBN 9781420101690<br/>Publisher Zebra/Kensington,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Noonday : a novelent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:15264752026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Barker, Pat<br/>ISBN 9780385537728<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title When Love comes my Way.ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:14830672026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Copeland, Lori.<br/>ISBN 9780736930215<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title My fair mistress : a novelent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:10769432026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Warren, Tracy Anne.<br/>ISBN 9780345495396<br/>Publisher Ballantine Books,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Birth of the kingdoment://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:11886892026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Guillou, Jan.<br/>ISBN 9780007285877<br/>Publisher Harper,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The seducerent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:11979622026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Hunter, Madeline.<br/>ISBN 9780553592740<br/>Publisher Bantam Books,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The tattooed dukeent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:13167062026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Rodale, Maya.<br/>ISBN 9780062088925<br/>Publisher Avon Books,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Perdition : the crusaders' last standent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:13929812026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Jackson, James H.<br/>ISBN 9781848540064<br/>Publisher John Murray,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Fado vir 'n vreemdelingent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:12993512026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Bakkes, Margaret.<br/>ISBN 9780799352146<br/>Publisher Lapa,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title His bonnie brideent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:13428262026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Howell, Hannah.<br/>ISBN 9781420110227<br/>Publisher Zebra Books,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Beloved counterfeitent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:12490522026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Y'Barbo, Kathleen.<br/>ISBN 9781602603424<br/>Publisher Barbour,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Whitefireent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:12148352026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Michaels, Fern.<br/>ISBN 9781420119565<br/>Publisher Zebra Books,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The wedding challengeent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:10552522026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Camp, Candace.<br/>ISBN 9780373773084<br/>Publisher HQN Books,<br/>Summary When her overprotective brother warns her to stay away from the mysterious Earl of Bromwell, Lady Calandra, defying brother's wishes, is determined to see the Earl again, only to walk straight into a trap.<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Eric Bloodaxe, the Viking kingent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:11837882026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Harvey, Damian. Collins, Ross, illustrator.<br/>ISBN 9780749685836<br/>Publisher Franklin Watts,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Battlelinesent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:13710022026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Neville, Stuart.<br/>ISBN 9781846554537<br/>Publisher Harvill Secker,<br/>Summary As Irish people prepare to welcome President John F Kennedy to the land of his ancestors, a German is murdered in a seaside guesthouse.

This woman is Eleanor, Duchess of Aquitaine, and her sole purpose now is to return to her vast duchy and marry the man she loves, Henry Plantagenet, a man destined for greatness as King of England. Theirs is a union founded on lust which will create a great empire stretching from the wilds of Scotland to the Pyrenees. It will also create the devil's brood of Plantagenets -- including Richard Ci??ur de Lion and King John -- and the most notoriously vicious marriage in history. The Captive Queen is a novel on the grand scale, an epic subject for Alison Weir. It tells of the making of nations, and of passionate conflicts: between Henry II and Thomas Becket, his closest friend who is murdered in Canterbury Cathedral on his orders; between Eleanor and Henry's formidable mother Matilda; between father and sons, as Henry's children take up arms against him; and finally between Henry and Eleanor herself.<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The scoundrel takes a brideent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:13696962026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Sloane, Stefanie<br/>ISBN 9780345531155<br/>Publisher Ballantine Books,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Angels Weep, Theent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:15113792026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Smith, Wilbur.<br/>ISBN 9781447267188<br/>Publisher Pan Macmillan ,<br/>Summary At the dawn of a new century, the pioneers of Rhodesia have staked their claims and stocked their farms in the land they have carved as their own.

She does it for money - she was a favorite in the cigar factory where she worked as a lettora - and for love, spinning gossamer tales out of her own past for the benefit of friends, neighbors, and family. But now, like a modern-day Scheherazade, she will be asked to tell one last story so that eight women can keep both hope and themselves alive. Cuba, 1963. Hurricane Flora, one of the deadliest hurricanes in recorded history, is bearing down on the island. Seven women have been forcibly evacuated from their homes and herded into the former governor's mansion, where they are watched over by another woman, a young soldier of Castro's new Cuba named Ofelia. Outside the storm is raging and the floodwaters are rising. In a single room on the top floor of the governor's mansion, Maria Sirena begins to tell the incredible story of her childhood during Cuba's Third War of Independence; of her father Augustin, a ferocious rebel; of her mother, Lulu, an astonishing woman who fought, loved, dreamed, and suffered as fiercely as her husband. Stories, however, have a way of taking on a life of their own, and transported by her story's momentum, Maria Sirena will reveal more about herself than she or anyone ever expected. Chantel Acevedo's The Distant Marvels is an epic adventure tale, a family saga, a love story, a stunning historical account of armed struggle against oppressors, and a long tender plea for forgiveness. It is, finally, a life-affirming novel about the kind of love that lasts a lifetime and the very art of storytelling itself.<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Shadow walkerent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:16425602026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Mason, Connie.<br/>ISBN 9780843942606<br/>Publisher Leisure Books,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The Gowrie conspiracyent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:5059852026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Knight, Alanna.<br/>ISBN 9780754099048<br/>Publisher BBC Audiobooks,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title Bloodlineent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:15397212026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Iggulden, Conn<br/>ISBN 9780718196424<br/>Publisher G.P.

'Never forget it. I love you like a sister, and you are my only friend in all the world.' Miss V. Conroy is good at keeping secrets. She likes to sit as quiet as a mouse, neat and discreet. But when her father sends her to Kensington Palace to become the companion to Princess Victoria, Miss V soon finds that she can no longer remain in the shadows. Miss V's father has devised a strict set of rules for the young princess, which he calls the Kensington System. It governs her behaviour and keeps her locked away from the world. He says it is for the princess's safety, but Victoria herself is convinced that it is to keep her lonely, and unhappy. Torn between loyalty to her father and her growing friendship with the wilful and passionate Victoria, Miss V has a decision to make: to continue in silence, or to speak out. By turns thrilling, dramatic and touching, this is the story of Queen Victoria's childhood as you've never heard it before.<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The Gowrie conspiracyent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:5010402026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Knight, Alanna.<br/>ISBN 9780754099055<br/>Publisher Chivers,<br/>Format: Books<br/>Title The Boston girl : a novelent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:14911622026-04-17T14:54:48Z2026-04-17T14:54:48ZAuthor Diamant, Anita<br/>ISBN 9781439199350<br/>Summary A story "about family ties and values, friendship and feminism told through the eyes of a young Jewish woman growing up in Boston in the early twentieth century. Addie Baum is The Boston Girl, born in 1900 to immigrant parents who were unprepared for and suspicious of America and its effect on their three daughters. Growing up in the North End, then a teeming multicultural neighborhood, Addie's intelligence and curiosity take her to a world her parents can't imagine--a world of short skirts, movies, celebrity culture, and new opportunities for women.

This is the story of the infamous Dreyfus affair told as a chillingly dark, hard-edged novel of conspiracy and espionage. Paris in 1895. Alfred Dreyfus, a young Jewish officer, has just been convicted of treason, sentenced to life imprisonment at Devil's Island, and stripped of his rank in front of a baying crowd of twenty-thousand. Among the witnesses to his humiliation is Georges Picquart, the ambitious, intellectual, recently promoted head of the counterespionage agency that "proved" Dreyfus had passed secrets to the Germans. At first, Picquart firmly believes in Dreyfus's guilt. But it is not long after Dreyfus is delivered to his desolate prison that Picquart stumbles on information that leads him to suspect that there is still a spy at large in the French military. As evidence of the most malignant deceit mounts and spirals inexorably toward the uppermost levels of government, Picquart is compelled to question not only the case against Dreyfus but also his most deeply held beliefs about his country, and about himself. Bringing to life the scandal that mesmerized the world at the turn of the twentieth century, Robert Harris tells a tale of uncanny timeliness--a witch hunt, secret tribunals, out-of-control intelligence agencies, the fate of a whistle-blower--richly dramatized with the singular storytelling mastery that has marked all of his internationally best-selling novels"--<br/>Format: Books<br/>
