Par Dan Fesperman. 2015
Not very long ago, Darwin Cole was an F-16 fighter pilot. He was a family man. He was on top…
of the world. Now? He's a washout drunk with a dishonorable discharge from the U.S. Air Force, living alone in the Nevada desert and haunted by an image beamed from one of his last missions as a "pilot" of a Predator drone -- a harrowing shot of an Afghan child running for her life. When Cole is approached by three journalists trying to uncover the identity of the possibly rogue intelligence operative who called the shots in Cole's ill-fated mission, Cole reluctantly agrees to team up with them. But in our surveillance culture, even the well intentioned are liable to find themselves under scrutiny, running for their lives, especially when the trail they're following leads to the very heart of that culture -- in intelligence, in the military, and among the unchecked private contractors who stand to profit richly from the advancing technology . . . not merely for use "over there," but for right here, right now.

And the lengths to which one woman will go to avenge her sister. When Maude Horton receives a letter from the British Admiralty informing her of her younger sister's death, her world is shattered. Bold and daring, Constance had run away from her life in Victorian London two years prior, disguising herself as a boy to board the Makepeace, an expedition vessel bound for the Arctic's unexplored Northwest Passage. The admiralty claims Constance's death was a tragic accident, but Maude knows when she is being deceived. Armed with Constance's diary from her time at sea and a fiery desire for justice, Maude sets her sights on the Makepeace's former scientist, Edison Stowe, a greedy and manipulative man who she suspects had a hand in her sister's death. When she learns he has a new venture, a travel company that escorts spectators across the country to witness popular public hangings, Maude decides to join the latest tour, determined to extract the truth from Stowe and avenge her sister—no matter the risk to herself. From the stark beauty of the Arctic to the teeming streets of Victorian London, Maude Horton's Glorious Revenge is a mysterious, transporting tale about the unbreakable bond of sisterhood and the things we are driven to do by both love and greedLulu sinagtala and the city of noble warriors (Lulu Sinagtala and the Tagalog Gods #1)

Villanueva (My Fate According to the Butterfly) that's perfect for fans of Tristan Strong and Aru Shah. Lulu Sinagtala can't wait for a fun Christmas break. She's excited to hang out with her sister, Kitty, and best friend, Bart; to reenact her favorite legends from Tagalog folklore (like the amazing tale of Bernardo Carpio); and, of course, to eat as much yummy street-side inihaw as possible! But when a vicious wakwak attacks her neighborhood and kidnaps Mom, Lulu discovers the creatures and deities of Tagalog myth are real and that two additional Realms exist beyond our own. To make it worse, Lulu has superhuman strength and the ability to wield magic, meaning she's the only one powerful enough to stop the evil spirit who's determined to rule the three Realms at all costs. No pressure, right? Lulu, Kitty, and Bart set off on a quest to rescue Mom, where they outsmart cunning enemies, battle vengeful beings, and form unlikely alliances. Soon they find themselves swept into a centuries-long fight, unraveling secrets about Lulu and her past that threaten to upend everything and throw the whole universe into chaos.
