of the Final Solution before it was too late.To uncover the fate of the thousands being interned at a mysterious Nazi facility named Auschwitz, Polish resistance fighter Witold Pilecki volunteered for an audacious mission: intentionally get himself sent to the camp and report back his findings. Once inside Pilecki forged an underground army that sabotaged facilities, assassinated Nazis, and amassed evidence revealing the horrifying truth of Germany’s plans to exterminate Europe’s Jews. But to warn the West before all was lost, he would then have to attempt the impossible: escape from Auschwitz.COSTA BOOK AWARD WINNER: BOOK OF THE YEAR • #1 SUNDAY TIMES (UK) BESTSELLER“Superbly written and breathtakingly researched, The Volunteer smuggles us into Auschwitz and shows us—as if watching a movie—the story of a Polish agent who infiltrated the infamous camp, organized a rebellion, and then snuck back out. . . . Fairweather has dug up a story of incalculable value and delivered it to us in the most compelling prose I have read in a long time.” —Sebastian Junger, author of The Perfect Storm and Tribe

In this mystery introducing a hard-boiled Soviet police inspector, &“Kaminsky gets Russia right&” (Ed McBain). Aleksander Granovsky has dedicated…
his life to exposing the brutality of the Russian penal system. In two days he will be tried for the crime of smuggling essays to the West. It is a show trial, and there is no doubt he will be convicted and executed, yet before he dies, he intends to tell the truth one more time. But this is Moscow, where death is never heroic. While writing his final speech in his government flat, Granovsky is surprised by an assassin, who pierces his heart with the point of a rusty scythe. The case is given to Porfiry Rostnikov, a veteran Moscow police inspector with a knack for navigating the labyrinths of Soviet bureaucracy. A bruising bear of a man, whose love of weightlifting and American pizza has left him as squat and powerful as a .38 bullet, Rostnikov may be the toughest cop in Moscow. This winter, his challenge is not just to find the killer, but to survive the investigation, as every question he asks takes him closer to exposing the dark heart of the KGB. A Cold War–era hero, Porfiry Rostnikov is &“quite simply the best cop to come out of the Soviet Union since Martin Cruz Smith&’s Arkady Renko in Gorky Park.&” (San Francisco Examiner)

The White Witch, Aslan, fauns and talking beasts, centaurs and epic battles between good and evil -- all these have…
become a part of our collective imagination through the classic volumes of The Chronicles of Narnia. Over the past half century, children everywhere have escaped into this world and delighted in its wonders and enchantments. Yet what we do know of the man who created Narnia? This biography sheds new light on the making of the original Narnian, C. S. Lewis himself.Lewis was one of the intellectual giants of the twentieth century and arguably the most influential religious writer of his day. An Oxford don and scholar of medieval literature, he loved to debate philosophy at his local pub, and his wartime broadcasts on the basics of Christian belief made him a celebrity in his native Britain. Yet one of the most intriguing aspects of Clive Staples Lewis remains a mystery. How did this middle-aged Irish bachelor turn to the writing of stories for children -- stories that would become among the most popular and beloved ever written?Alan Jacobs masterfully tells the story of the original Narnian. From Lewis's childhood days in Ireland playing with his brother, Warnie, to his horrific experiences in the trenches during World War I, to his friendship with J. R. R. Tolkien (and other members of the "Inklings"), and his remarkable late-life marriage to Joy Davidman, Jacobs traces the events and people that shaped Lewis's philosophy, theology, and fiction. The result is much more than a conventional biography of Lewis: Jacobs tells the story of a profound and extraordinary imagination. For those who grew up with Narnia, or for those just discovering it, The Narnian tells a remarkable tale of a man who knew great loss and great delight, but who knew above all that the world holds far more richness and meaning than the average eye can see.

In these three novels of romantic suspense, the Edgar Award winner proves once again that she &“can weave an almost…
flawless mystery&” (The New Yorker). In a prolific career that spanned seven decades, Mignon G. Eberhart made a name for herself as &“America&’s Agatha Christie.&” Praised by fellow writers ranging from Gertrude Stein, who called her &“one of the best mystifiers in America,&” to Mary Higgins Clark, who hailed her as &“one of America&’s favorite writers,&” Eberhart penned classic mystery novels of romantic suspense, usually with female leads and often set in exotic locales. The three novels collected here—written in 1949, 1955, and 1964—offer further evidence that &“Eberhart&’s name on mysteries is like sterling on silver&” (Miami News). House of Storm: On a Caribbean island in the path of a hurricane, Nonie is torn between the older man she&’s engaged to and the man she&’s truly in love with—a suspected murderer. &“Mounting tension . . . one of [Eberhart&’s] most successful glamour romances yet.&” —The New York Times Postmark Murder: Following the death of a wealthy Chicago businessman, his ward Laura March must protect her fellow heir—an orphaned girl from Poland—and clear herself of a murder after a mysterious stranger is stabbed. &“A nice example of [Eberhart&’s] powers . . . Intelligently complicated.&” —The New Yorker Call After Midnight: A late-night phone call from Jenny Vleedam&’s ex-husband revealing that his girlfriend has been shot places the divorcée in danger. &“Eberhart tells one of her better mystery-romances in Call After Midnight.&” —The New York Times

Stephen King&’s &“The Life of Chuck,&” is a &“phenomenal&” (USA TODAY) tale of life and legacy—now a feature film directed…
by Mike Flanagan and starring Tom Hiddleston, Mark Hamill, Chiwetel Ejiofor, and Karen Gillan—available for the first time in a beautiful stand-alone edition with a new introduction by Stephen King and a design surprise.Originally featured in the acclaimed story collection If It Bleeds, this unforgettable, mind-bending tale unfolds in reverse, taking readers through the extraordinary life of Charles &“Chuck&” Krantz. In a crumbling world plagued by natural disasters, collapsing infrastructure, and mass panic, bizarre billboards and advertisements appear throughout town: &“Charles Krantz. Thirty-nine great years. Thanks, Chuck!&” Marty Anderson, a schoolteacher, becomes obsessed with these messages as the world, inexplicably linked to Chuck&’s life, seems to be approaching its end. Told in three acts, presented in reverse order, The Life of Chuck explores one man&’s past. We see him in middle age on a business trip in Boston as he is seduced by a busker into spinning a gorgeous sidewalk dance. And we see him as a child, in a house haunted by a terrible secret, learning to dance with his grandmother. In these pages King reminds us that life&’s quotidian pleasures are even more glorious because they are fleeting: the outrageous good fortune of a beautiful blue day after a string of gray ones; the delight of dancing when every move feels perfect; a serendipitous meeting. King&’s ability to describe pure joy rivals his ability to terrify us. Now a major motion picture and winner of the Toronto International Film Festival People&’s Choice Award, The Life of Chuck is a glorious story about community and about humanity at its best, a celebration of joy, mystery, existential wonder, and the multitudes contained in all of us.

Iconic sleuth Nero Wolfe returns to track down the murderer of a New York Symphony Orchestra conductor in this Nero…
Award–winning mystery. Ever since disgraced associate Orrie Cather&’s suicide, armchair detective Nero Wolfe has relished retirement in his Manhattan brownstone on West Thirty-Fifth Street. Two years after Cather&’s death, only a visit from Maria Radovich—and the urging of Wolfe&’s prize assistant, Archie Goodwin—could draw the eccentric and reclusive genius back into business. Maria&’s uncle, New York Symphony Orchestra conductor Milan Stevens, formerly known as Milos Stefanovic, spent his youth alongside Wolfe as a fellow freedom fighter in the mountains of Montenegro. And now that the maestro has been receiving death threats, Wolfe can&’t turn his back on the compatriot who once saved his life. Though her uncle has dismissed the menacing letters, Maria fears they&’re more than the work of a harmless crank. But before Wolfe can attack the case, Stevens is murdered. The accused is the orchestra&’s lead violinist, whose intimate relationship with Maria hit more than a few sour notes in her uncle&’s professional circle. But Wolfe knows that when it comes to murder, nothing is so simple—especially when there are so many suspects, from newspaper critics and ex-lovers to an assortment of shady musicians. Now, in this award-winning novel that carries on the great tradition of Rex Stout, the irascible and immovable Nero Wolfe is back in the game, listening for clues and ready to go to war to find a killer. Murder in E Minor is the 48th book in the Nero Wolfe Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.
