One of Jeffery Farnol's vigorous novels of adventures in Georgian England - gravitating from the rurality of Kent and Sussex to the stews and fine houses of London - involving Mr. Jasper Shrig. Plot: mysterious young lady is rescued from the Thames. She then disappears, and a new young lady meets and makes (platonic?) relations with the hero. Great adventures with real peril ensue, the hero falls out with everyone important to him, and dastardly baddies with (of course) foreign overtones do their damnedest.

Arapaho attorney Vicki Holden and Father John O'Malley must find the link between the murder of a woman—and the murder of her ancestor from a century earlier.

A poignant novel about infatuation, class, and obligation.

As Mother India approaches her centenary, nine people are going about their business — a gangster, a cop, his wife, a politician, a stand-up comic, a set designer, a journalist, a scientist, and a dropout. And so is Aj — the waif, the mind-reader, the prophet — when she one day finds a man who wants to stay hidden. In the next few weeks, they will all be swept together to decide the fate of the nation. River of Gods teems with the life of a country choked with peoples and cultures — one and a half billion people, twelve semi-independent nations, nine million gods. Ian McDonald has written the great Indian novel of the new millennium, in which a war is fought, a love betrayed, a message from a different world decoded, as the great river Ganges flows on.
