Story
O ano é 1944. Os Aliados estão se preparando para desembarcar na Normandia e libertar os territórios ocupados por Hitler, na operação que entrou para a história como o Dia D. Para que a missão dê certo, eles precisam convencer os alemães de que a invasão acontecerá em outro lugar. Assim, criam um exército inteiro de mentira, incluindo tanques infláveis, aviões de papelão e bases sem parede. O objetivo é que ele seja fotografado pelos aviões de reconhecimento germânicos. O sucesso depende de o inimigo não descobrir o estratagema.

Story
Todos os dias, Millie limpa a casa de Nina e Andrew Winchester de cima a baixo. Pega a filha deles na escola. Prepara refeições deliciosas para a família toda antes de poder se recolher e enfim comer o próprio jantar, sozinha em seu quarto minúsculo e claustrofóbico no sótão. Quando Nina passa a sujar todos os cômodos de propósito só para assisti-la limpar, Millie tenta não perder a cabeça. Quando ela conta mentiras perturbadoras sobre a própria filha e tortura psicologicamente o marido, que parece mais e mais fragilizado, Millie tenta ignorar.

Story
No deserto do Saara, dois agentes de inteligência de elite—um francês e uma americana—arriscam a própria vida enquanto seguem o rastro de um poderoso grupo de extremistas. Do outro lado do mundo, a primeira mulher a ocupar o cargo de presidente dos Estados Unidos faz de tudo para lidar diplomaticamente com ataques estrangeiros, comércio ilegal de armas e campanhas de difamação de um adversário populista. Mas, à medida que pequenos atos de violência se sucedem e começam a ganhar escala, o início de uma nova guerra mundial parece uma certeza.

A morte repentina de um estudante na Escola St. Stephen–um internato na região mais remota de Norfolk–é um acontecimento chocante que seu diretor faz questão de encarar apenas como um acidente infeliz. Porém, a polícia local não descarta a possibilidade de um crime, e o caso traz de volta à ativa a inspetora Jazmine Hunter. Jazz se afastou da carreira policial em Londres, mas, relutante, concorda em participar da investigação como um favor a seu antigo chefe.

Publisher's summary
Uma trama de traição, duplicidade e coragem que mudou o curso da história.
Seguindo os passos do pai e do irmão, Oleg Gordievsky se tornou oficial da KGB após frequentar as melhores instituições soviéticas. Porém, ao contrário deles, nutria uma secreta aversão pelo regime da URSS.
Ele resolveu assumir seu primeiro posto da inteligência russa em 1966. Em 1974, tornou-se agente duplo do MI6, o serviço de inteligência britânico, e dez anos depois era o homem mais importante da União Soviética em Londres.
Gordievsky ajudou o Ocidente a virar o jogo contra a KGB na Guerra Fria, expondo espiões russos, fornecendo informações de extrema relevância e frustrando incontáveis planos de espionagem. Ele foi fundamental para distensionar a relação com a liderança soviética, que estava cada vez mais paranoica com a possibilidade de um ataque nuclear dos Estados Unidos.
O MI6 tentou ao máximo proteger seu espião, nunca revelando o nome de Oleg para seus colegas da CIA. Só que a agência americana estava determinada a descobrir a identidade da fonte britânica privilegiada.
Essa obsessão acabou condenando Gordievsky: o homem designado para identificá-lo era ninguém menos que Aldrich Ames, que se tornaria famoso por espionar secretamente para os soviéticos. Agora o russo estava em perigo.
Com base em diversas entrevistas com ex-membros do MI6, da KGB e da CIA, Ben Macintyre entremeia a vida de Gordievsky e Ames, apresentando um dos episódios mais extraordinários da espionagem mundial.

Story
World War II is the defining conflict of the 20th century, one that created a line in the sands of history dividing the pre-war and post-war eras. In this epoch-defining conflict lies another definitive moment: the invasion of a 50-mile stretch of coast in Normandy, France, on June 6, 1944. This battle, also known as D-Day, was the pivot point of the war in Europe. Its success led to a nearly yearlong, bloody campaign that saw the liberation of France, Luxembourg, Belgium, and the Netherlands, followed by the final defeat of Hitler’s Third Reich.

Hilarious, fascinating, and a roller coaster of dizzying, historical what-ifs, Napoleon's Hemorrhoids is a potpourri for serious historians and casual history buffs. In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.

Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

Story
The history of the tablets translated in the following book is strange and beyond the belief of modern scientists. Their antiquity is stupendous, dating back some 36,000 years. The writer is Thoth, an Atlantean Priest-King, who founded a colony in ancient Egypt after the sinking of the mother country. He was the builder of the Great Pyramid of Giza, erroneously attributed to Cheops. In it he incorporated his knowledge of the ancient wisdom and also securely secreted records and instruments of ancient Atlantis.

Story
The “mountain men” were the hunters and trappers who fiercely strode the Rocky Mountains in the early to mid-1800s. They braved the elements in search of the skins of beavers and other wild animals, to sell or barter for goods. The lifestyle of the mountain men could be harsh, existing as they did among animals, and spending most of their days and nights living and camping out in the great unexplored wilds of the Rockies.

The Roman Republic is one of the most breathtaking civilizations in world history. Between roughly 500 BCE to the turn of the millennium, a modest city-state developed an innovative system of government and expanded into far-flung territories across Europe, Northern Africa, and the Middle East. This powerful civilization inspired America's founding fathers, gifted us a blueprint for amazing engineering innovations, left a vital trove of myths, and has inspired the human imagination for 2,000 years.
