DESCRIPTION:
Fifteen-year-old Natalia Artison knows something she shouldn’t — a secret her mother was murdered for – The Code. Natalia’s father claims the Code is the only thing left to protect her before abandoning her on the side of the road. With nowhere left to turn, Natalia is taken in by the shadowy organization that employed her parents and becomes the ward of reluctant agent Steven Delarno. For his part, Steven would rather be exploring the bottom of a bottle than babysitting a snarky teenager, but the promise of redemption for past sins is too great to ignore.
Natalia and Steven can’t waste time sparring however. The same man who butchered Natalia’s mother is closing in, and is determined to massacre every person standing between him and the Code.
But Natalia is not content to play the victim.
After all, she is her parents’ daughter.
From New York to Alcatraz, Natalia and Steven navigate a violent tangle of lies and betrayal in a desperate attempt to reunite, find redemption, and protect the Code.

Matchbox Memoriesby Ray Kingfisher
Available through October 09 at
Deal availability may change without notice! Prices may vary from store to store. Due to international copyright, availability and pricing may vary outside of the US.
DESCRIPTION:
A gentle mystery story laced with warm and insightful humour.
Ian Greefe has always had issues with his parents – the main one being that they aren’t.
Settled for many years at the other end of the country, out of the blue he gets a call to arms; he has to care for his mother, who now has Alzheimer’s, while his father is in hospital.
Over the course of a week ‘back home’, secrets gradually come out that make him reassess his views on family life, and come to terms with his own shortcomings as a son and father.
A warm, bittersweet comedy drama full of though-provoking contradictions, here are just some of the quotes from independent reviewers:
So much more than just a comedy – a wonderful, intimate blend of emotions wound up in a slice of ‘real’ life, delivered with mastery.
Bittersweet is the perfect description of this. I loved the humour and poignancy. There were so many brilliant lines that I stopped picking them out and just read.
I loved it, the dialogue was very realistic, the characters were easy to picture. This is definitely something I would select in a bookstore.
You’re great at really capturing a character with just a turn of phrase or one or two lines.
A cracker.
An exceptionally well delivered offering in a technical sense – uncliched, crisp, lively prose, top quality construction
A darned good read.
First class.
Absolutely loved it!
Definitely pulled me into the story. Something I would buy.
Professional and a pleasure to read.
A treat to read some genuinely amusing comedy
I really enjoyed this and laughed out loud several times. You demonstrate a compelling wit and kept me amused throughout. Perhaps humour is the best way of dealing with serious issues like Alzheimers but you underpin this with a genuine sense of concern.
