  PRISONER OF MEMORY by Denise Hamilton Scribner, April 2006

Denise Hamilton

Prisoner of Memory

A Novel

In Prisoner of Memory, Edgar-nominated Denise Hamilton returns to her "City of Fallen Angels" with reporter Eve Diamond. When the son of a Russian 魩gr頩s found murdered in Los Angeles's Griffith Park Eve's nose for the story leads her deep into Cold War territory.

Forced to excavate her own family's past for clues as she hunts the killer, Eve's investigation is complicated when a bumbling young man shows up on her doorstep, claiming to be her long-lost cousin on the run from the Russian Mafia. But is he really who he claims to be? Against her better judgment but yearning to reconnect with her family, Eve agrees to let him sleep on her couch. But the very next day he disappears, leaving Eve to face three very angry Russian gangsters who are hot on the trail of the runaway cousin. Eventually, Eve is summoned before a Mafia kingpin, who warns her to stop meddling in Russian emigre business and drop her investigation into the murdered boy's family.

Featuring a disgraced FBI agent, a KGB femme fatale, mafia thugs, and secrets that are better left buried, Prisoner of Memory is the most global-and the most explosive-of the Eve Diamond novels yet, as Hamilton brings the Cold War to the mean streets and sunny palm-tree haze of millennial Los Angeles.

LIGHTS OUT by Jason Starr A Novel
  Ryan Rossetti and Jake Thomas were the two Major League-bound rivals on their high school baseball team, heading straight into history as the first two of Canarsie's favorite sons to make it out and make it big. Until Ryan hurt his pitching arm and landed a $10 dollar an hour life as a house painter. Lucky Jake made it all the way, and he and his $10 million signing bonus are heading back for a publicity- motivated homecoming weekend that has all of Brooklyn waiting to explode in celebration. But he's got a nasty surprise in store: Ryan is involved in an intense, addictive relationship with Jake's fianc饠Christina, who now faces a choice between love in a Brooklyn tenement or a heartless marriage on Easy Street. None of the three have any idea what's about to play out in the streets they once all called home. Lights Out is vintage Jason Starr, a razor sharp crime novel that brilliantly combines biting social satire, explosive suspense, and honest, revealing human drama.

Jason Starr, winner of the Anthony and Barry Awards, is the author of seven crime novels which are published in ten languages. He lives in New York City. Visit his brand new web-site at www.jasonstarr.com
