Not quite knowing why, Frank doesn't turn Ian over to the Red Cross. Instead he makes up a story about where the boy came from and takes him home, where Frank realizes that Ian has an otherworldly gift--an extraordinary ability to transform lives beyond anything he'd ever imagined. Awed and confused, Frank confesses Ian's secret to Claudia, a beautiful champion rider who is training for the Olympics. They join together to fight the sinister forces gathering to take Ian back. In a final confrontation, Frank and Claudia will risk everything--their love, their family, their very lives--to save this boy they now love as their own son.

(This title is available on demand: expected date of dispatch will be 7-10 working days once ordered) It's a snowy Christmas Eve, and Detective Alex Cross is at home celebrating with his family. Nana Mama's famous pecan pie is in the oven and the kids are hanging their favourite ornaments on the tree. Just as Alex's wife Bree emerges from the kitchen with a bowl of homemade eggnog, his phone rings with news that shatters the night: at a nearby home, a family has been taken hostage - and the situation is spiralling out of control fast. Alex rushes to the scene and confronts the unthinkable: a father is threatening to murder his own children and his ex-wife. Then just as the insanity peaks, a second horrific situation explodes - one that no one could have foreseen and that puts millions of people at risk. This is a red alert of the darkest kind, and Alex is forced to make a decision that could end as many lives as it saves - including his own. "Merry Christmas, Alex Cross" is James Patterson's most shocking "Alex Cross" novel yet: a breakneck-paced and heart-pounding adrenaline rush of a thriller. Format:Paperback Pages:352

Out of Africa's Eden In 1988 Newsweek broke the news that everyone alive on the planet today carries DNA that can be traced back to a single woman living in Africa over 150 000 years ago. Modern humans are truly 'out of Africa'. But how, when and why we left our motherland was open to question and until very recently most experts believed that many waves of ex-African migration had resulted in a gradual populating of the world. In a brilliant synthesis of new genetic, archaeological and climatic evidence, the author challenges the orthodoxy by arguing that all modern non-Africans can be shown to have sprung from a single successful exodus. One migrant band of no more than a few hundred souls was forced out of its homeland by increasing salinity in the Red Sea, some 80 000 years ago, and all non-Africans today can trace their mitochondrial DNA to one woman from the group ? the Out-of-Africa eve. This is the story of that remarkable group and its great global trek. Authors Stephen Oppenheimer ISBN 9781868421992 Format Paperback Pages 440p.
