Known for her intense, emotional thrillers like The Face on the Milk Carton, Caroline B. Cooney once again delivers an addictive, spine-tingling tale of love gone wrong.

A Road Warrior's work life demands travel-lots of travel. This Road Warrior's life landed him in all 50 states and 6 foreign countries, covered 4.7 million air miles, and required more than 4,000 nights in hotels. And that's where the glamour ends. Road Warrior is for anyone who has ever traveled and experienced airport lines, TSA checkpoints, weather delays, equipment delays, security delays, middle seats, traffic jams, or fellow travelers who are by turns, enjoyable, crazy, knowledgeable, clueless, helpful, selfish, agreeable...and disagreeable...and still managed to come out smiling. You'll discover there's no commute like a Road Warrior's commute, and you'll delight in the unusual diversity of destinations in this Road Warrior's life-one week "working" at Churchill Downs, another week flying to a school in a remote Alaskan village on the Iditarod Trail, and at other times, walking through the heavily guarded precincts of twelve California State prisons. Arranged alphabetically from A is for Advice to Zzzz is for Sleep-Road Warrior is NOT a "how to travel" book. It is an anecdotal memoir of the author's determination to thrive-not just survive-during more than two-and-a-half decades on the road. Whether he's finding the fun in B is for Baseball, explaining a comically embarrassing situation in the Big Apple in X is for X-Rated, confessing to rude behavior in C is for Credit Card, or admitting to fearing for his life in P is for Prayer, the chapters provide a potpourri of fun, fear, fascination, laughter, and insights.

UFOs. Unsolved mysteries. Artifacts from ancient astronauts. The future begins now. And everything changes.

A camping trip comes to a brutal conclusion when Rupert Kline, a madman with almost limitless resources, murders Alex’s father to seize the stone. Alex swears revenge and plans to bring the killer to justice. But Kline kidnaps Alex’s former fiancée to help him recover the remaining stones. In response, Alex assembles a team of friends and experts for an all-out crusade. He soon realizes there is much more at stake than he realized. The quest for the stones is a quest for the power of ancient gods—the power to shape the future of humanity.
