Publisher's summary
Laurie Norber, the protagonist of The Flash of Midnight, is a survivor of rape and child abuse who has managed to retain both her sense of humor and a positive outlook toward the future. Taking its inspiration from Voltaire’s Candide, The Flash of Midnight recounts the bisexual escapades of a young woman who steadfastly believes that real love is just around the corner, never imagining that in June of 1969, she will become the spark that ignites a sexual revolution at a small Greenwich Village bar called the Stonewall Inn.
Film and television actress Remington Moses, a fourth generation member of the famous Nelson family acting dynasty, brings her considerable versatility to this constantly shifting story about a young woman learning to stand up for herself.

Story5 out of 5 stars 4
A hidden, sacred canyon. Eight women. Twelve centuries. And a mystical song that connects it all. Deep in the wilderness lies a hidden canyon, one that calls out to travelers with its haunting siren song. Sacred wisdom, terrible secrets, and a veil of mystery shroud it--but the power of nature cannot be ignored. Seen through the eyes of eight women across time, Sedona’s Oak Creek Canyon calls through the ages, echoing across 12 centuries to capture the minds of visitors from ancient hunter-gatherers to Spanish conquistadors to modern-day seekers of truth.

For 20 years, Kayla, Antoinette and Val have performed their own special summer ritual. Once a year, the old friends put aside their daily, separate lives to drink champagne, swap stories and swim naked under the Nantucket stars. But on one of those bonding nights, one of their trio swims out from the shore and doesn't return. After the surviving friends emerge from their grief, they realize that the repercussions of their loss go far beyond their little circle, and they begin to uncover layers of secrets—and their connections to each other—that were never revealed on the beach.

In David Sedaris' world, no one is safe and no cow is sacred. A manic cross between Mark Leyner, Fran Lebowitz, and the National Enquirer, Sedaris' collection of essays is a rollicking tour through the national Zeitgeist: a do-it-yourself suburban dad saves money by performing home surgery; a man who is loved too much flees the heavyweight champion of the world; a teenage suicide tries to incite a lynch mob at her funeral; a bitter Santa abuses the elves.

But Kimber definitely didn't invite this man to move in. He tells her that he knows something about her, and he wants everyone else to know it too. "I was there. I saw what you did." These words reveal a connection to Kimber's distant past, and dark secrets she'd long ago left buried. This trespasser isn't after anything as simple as her money or her charming Craftsman bungalow.
