Where Are The Children Now?

The highly anticipated follow-up to the Queen of Suspense's iconic bestseller, Where Are the Children?. THEY THOUGHT IT COULDN’T HAPPEN AGAIN. THEY WERE WRONG. A lawyer turned successful podcaster, Missy has worked hard to put the past behind her. More than four decades ago, her mother, Nancy Harmon, was convicted of the murder of her first two children and released on a technicality. Shunned by her family and the media, she was building a new life for herself in Cape Cod when her children from a second marriage, Missy and her brother Mike, vanished too. Once again the prime suspect, this time Nancy was able to confront the secrets buried in her past and rescue her kids from a dangerous predator. But Nancy’s past has a long reach. Missy has recently married a man whose first wife died tragically, leaving him and their young daughter, Riley, behind. While Missy and her brother Mike help their mother relocate from Cape Cod to the equally idyllic Hamptons, Missy’s new stepdaughter goes missing. As history chillingly repeats itself, Missy and Mike must draw on memories of their own abduction as they race to find Riley and save her from the same trauma they experienced – or something much worse . . . Just like the original, Where Are the Children Now? will keep you holding your breath until the very last page.

Happy Place

Harriet and Wyn are the perfect couple - they go together like bread and butter, gin and tonic, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds. Except, now they don't. They broke up six months ago. And they still haven't told anyone. Which is how they end up sharing a bedroom at the cottage that has been their yearly getaway with their best friends for the past decade. For one glorious week they leave behind their lives, drink far too much wine and soak up the sea air with their favourite people. Only this year, Harriet and Wyn are lying through their teeth. The cottage is for sale so this is the last time they'll all be together here and they can't bear to break their friends' hearts. So, they'll fake it for one more week. It's a flawless plan (if you look at it through a pair of sunscreen-smeared sunglasses). But how can you pretend to be in love with someone - and get away with it - in front of the people who know you best? Brimming with characters you can't help but fall for and off-the-charts chemistry, HAPPY PLACE is Emily Henry's best novel yet.

Jodi and Todd are at a bad place in their marriage. Much is at stake, including the affluent life they lead in their beautiful waterfront condo in Chicago, as she, the killer, and he, the victim, rush haplessly toward the main event. He is a committed cheater. She lives and breathes denial. He exists in dual worlds. She likes to settle scores. He decides to play for keeps. She has nothing left to lose. Told in alternating voices, The Silent Wife is about a marriage in the throes of dissolution, a couple headed for catastrophe, concessions that can’t be made, and promises that won’t be kept. Expertly plotted and reminiscent of Gone Girl and These Things Hidden, The Silent Wife ensnares the reader from page one and does not let go.

Currency Wars:The Making of the Next G

Currency Wars: The Making of the Next Global Crisis Drawing on a mix of economic history, network science, and sociology, this rich history provides an understanding of the increasing threats to U.S. national security, from dollar devaluation to collapse in the European periphery, and more. In 1971, President Nixon imposed national price controls andtook the United States off the gold standard, an extreme measureintended to end an ongoing currency war that had destroyed faith inthe U.S. dollar. Today we are engaged in a new currency war, andthis time the consequences will be far worse than those thatconfronted Nixon. Currency wars are one of the most destructive and fearedoutcomes in international economics. At best, they offer the sorryspectacle of countries' stealing growth from their tradingpartners. At worst, they degenerate into sequential bouts ofinflation, recession, retaliation, and sometimes actual violence.Left unchecked, the next currency war could lead to a crisis worsethan the panic of 2008. Currency wars have happened before-twice in the last centuryalone-and they always end badly. Time and again, paper currencieshave collapsed, assets have been frozen, gold has been confiscated,and capital controls have been imposed. And the next crash isoverdue. Recent headlines about the debasement of the dollar,bailouts in Greece and Ireland, and Chinese currency manipulationare all indicators of the growing conflict. As James Rickards argues in Currency Wars, this is more thanjust a concern for economists and investors. The United States isfacing serious threats to its national security, from clandestinegold purchases by China to the hidden agendas of sovereign wealthfunds. Greater than any single threat is the very real danger ofthe collapse of the dollar itself. Baffling to many observers is the rank failure of economists toforesee or prevent the economic catastrophes of recent years. Notonly have their theories failed to prevent calamity, they

Unscripted

Unscripted is the inside story of the struggle to control one of the world's great entertainment empires. It is the story of the last great Hollywood mogul, Sumner Redstone: the ninety-something founder of Paramount Global who, well into his dotage and facing a scandalous lawsuit, proves increasingly unable to run the sprawling company he has built. It is the story of his daughter, Shari Redstone: Sumner's heir apparent who, despite being groomed for power for six decades, struggles to assert her authority over the company and her family's legacy. And it is the story of her challenger, Leslie Moonves: the well-liked CEO of CBS who plots a coup to take control of the business - until news leaks that he is facing multiple allegations of sexual misconduct (allegations he has spent years trying to hush up). The result is damning portrait of how money and power works in Hollywood now. It illuminates an industry struggling to adapt to the revolution brought by streaming, #MeToo and Black Lives Matter. And it reveals the lengths people will go to in pursuit of power - and the carnage that ensues when they do.
