Fleur De Lies

DÃ©jÃ Vu All Over Again When intrepid travel agency owner Emily Andrew-Miceli takes her band of tech-savvy seniors to France, they say âBonjourâ by cruising down the Seine River. Along for the ride are a colorful cast of cruise-goers, including four sales reps who are the crÃ¨me de la crÃ¨me of the cosmetic industry and a group of morticians looking for a little joie de vivre as they sort out business conflicts. But once a guest is found dead along Normandyâs famed Alabaster coast, Emily bids adieu to the hopes of a fatality-free trip. Was it a mishap? Or was murder the entrÃ©e du jour? Traveling from the medieval alleyways of Rouen to Monetâs famous water lily garden, Emily must untangle a web of lies that began a half-century ago, on the very eve of the D-Day invasion. Praise: "Don't miss the ninth trip in this always entertaining series."âLibrary Journal

Life After Life: Library Edition

The longest and most expensive journey you will ever make is the one to yourself. Some people never even purchase a ticket. Some only get halfway. Some stand like Moses glimpsing the Promised Land. For some, thatâs about as good as getting there.Award-winning author Jill McCorkle takes us on a splendid journey through time and memory in this, her tenth work of fiction. Life After Life is filled with a sense of wonder at our capacity for self-discovery at any age. And the residents, staff, and neighbors of the Pine Haven retirement center (from twelve-year-old Abby to eighty-five-year-old Sadie) share some of lifeâs most profound discoveries and are some of the most true-to-life characters that you are ever likely to meet in fiction.Thereâs retired third-grade teacher Sadie Randolph, who has taught every child in town and believes we are all eight years old in our hearts; Stanley Stone, a prominent lawyer, now feigning dementia to escape life with his son; Marge Walker, the townâs self-appointed conveyor of social status, who keeps a scrapbook of every local murder and heinous crime; Rachel Silverman, recently widowed, whose decision to leave her Massachusetts home and settle at Pine Haven is a puzzle to everyone but her; C.J., the pierced and tattooed young mother who runs the beauty shop; and Joanna Lamb, the hospice volunteer who discovers that her path to a good life lies in helping people achieve good deaths. As each character begins to connect with another, the mysteries and consequences of their lives are revealed. What they eventually learn about themselves and one another will profoundly transform them all.Delivered with her trademark wit, Jill McCorkleâs constantly surprising novel illuminates the possibilities of second chances, hope, and rediscovering life right up to the very end. With Life After Life, she has conjured up an entire community that reminds all of us that grace and magic can â and do â appear when we least expect it.

Slash and Burn

Can Dr. Siri solve the mystery surrounding a rash of killings before he, too, becomes a victim? Things have been pretty hectic for Dr. Siri. Now he's off on what he calls a ''therapeutic holiday'' in the mountains with his wife and friends. But sadly, there's no rest for the wicked; with the help of a little blackmail, they are accompanying an American MIA team. Their mission is to discover what happened to a stoned airman downed ten years earlier. Could he have survived? Who is eliminating the last people to have seen him alive? And who, we ask, is lighting the fires that are shrouding the Friendship Hotel in smog? In the remote Plain of Jars, surrounded by a thousand tons of unexploded bombs, Siri and the morgue team have to discover who the killer in their midst is before they, too, become victims.
