Book Description
Before moving to Atlanta, James Banner was a newspaper reporter in Jacksonville, Florida. Jack Caldwell was a mild-mannered school teacher in the same city. Through unusual twists of fate, they both end up detectives for the Atlanta Police Department, ambitious and ready to fight for justice in a new city rife with hidden crime. A horrific situation arises that requires the attention of Banner and Caldwell, working as partners. There’s a serial killer on the loose, but their investigation surprisingly reveals hit men, drug trafficking, and even the Dixie Mafia. Their lives and the lives of their families are now in mortal danger as they become not the hunter but the hunted. To survive, these detectives have to depend on their craftiness and on God, although their faith is tested to the limits. The criminals with whom they fight are tough—but so is Atlanta’s law enforcement. Filled with twists, turns, and incredible danger, Banner and Caldwell’s hunt for justice uncovers more than they bargained for, and it might take divine inspiration for them to catch a villain and get out alive.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Minister of Police One evening in May, just at that chill hour when the trees are draping themselves in the muslin of the evening mist, the carriage of Monsieur de Sartines passed the Swiss on guard at the gates of his majesty's palace of Versailles and entered the courtyard. Then, as now, this courtyard, vast, paved with cobblestones big as one's fist, looked on by rows and rows of windows; chill, almost repellent, gave one the impression of a back premises, without any detraction from that other impression of magnificence which the genius of Mansard mixed in the plans, the bricks and the very mortar of his work. The carriage of the minister of police, having crossed the courtyard where other carriages were standing in waiting, stopped at the main entrance of the palace, and Monsieur de Sartines descended.

Book Description
Sir Charles Dilke's claim to a leading place in the pantheon of Victorian radicalism, with Cobden, Bright and Chamberlain, has been overshadowed by the sensational divorce case in 1886 that ruined his career. Yet his political abilities were great and his career a most remarkable one. He was regarded by many of his contemporaries as a likely successor to Gladstone and a probable future Prime Minister. It can be argued that his political eclipse was a crucial contributing factor to the Liberal Party's failure to provide a viable alternative to the rise of the Labour Party. This is the first new biography of Dilke since Roy Jenkins' Sir Charles Dilke: A Victorian Tragedy, published in 1958. David Nicholls has used substantial new material to provide what is likely to be the definitive work on Dilke, shedding new light on his character, personal life and political career, as well as on the famous divorce scandal. This highly readable book is both an account of a remarkable man and an important contribution to the understanding of Victorian politics.

Book Description
July 16th, 1942 Andre Dumont is a collaborationist who has made a fortune buying art and valuables from Jews who sell their collections and heirlooms at ridiculously low prices in order to quickly obtain money as they attempt to escape from Europe. Dumont has befriended the Schwartzmanns so he can evaluate their art collection. He not only becomes a "friend of the family," but he becomes the lover of the Schwartzmanns' eldest daughter, Anna. Andre Dumont, using his influence and friends in the Nazi hierarchy in Paris, manages to get the Schwartzmann family listed for deportation. He wants to rid himself of any person who can claim the art he plans to have "confiscated" from the Schwartzmanns. The Schwartzmanns are arrested, but Anna, who has been living with Dumont, escapes the round-up. Dumont denounces his lover to the Nazis in order to rid himself of the last person who may lay claim to the Schwartzmann collection. Present Day After her mother dies, Mimi is putting away her mother's things and she discovers that the woman who she thought was her grandmother was not her biological grandmother. Her real grandmother's name was Anna, someone who, along with all of her family, died in the Nazi death camps. She comes to know all of this through Anna's diary. In it, she finds out that her family's art collection was stolen and she decides to embark on a quest to recover it. In Paris, Edouard Dumont, son of Andre Dumont, is the French Minister of Culture. He desperately needs money to finance his political career and save the financially struggling family business, a huge art gallery and auction house, from bankruptcy. He wants to sell the art his father left him, art stolen from the Jews. Edouard Dumont's and Mimi's destinies are about to cross as part of her plan to find out what happened to her family's art collection, Mimi gets a job at Edouard Dumont's art auction business. While working there, Mimi discovers that some of the art that will be sold at auction has very shady provenance. Could this be part of her family's collection? Enter Guillermo Lombardo, a retired police inspector, who rents Mimi's Paris apartment for a week and finds himself romantically entangled with the woman. Things soon take a turn for the worst for Lombardo. Upon his arrival in Brittany to see friends, a policeman shows up to question Lombardo. It seems Mimi has been reported missing and Mimi's friend, Sophie, has been found strangled in her own apartment. As Lombardo was the last person to see Mimi before she disappeared, the police consider him a suspect in Mimi's disappearance. To clear his name, Lombardo must find his missing lover, and stay one step ahead of a vicious killer."
