The Queen's Lies
The latest in the thrilling and “lively” (The New York Times) Agents of the Crown series follows John Dee and his wife working together in an act of espionage that may turn out to be treason. While working on a powerful new weapon for England, the country’s first secret agent John Dee finds himself threatened from all sides. First, his secret plans are stolen, then his son is kidnapped by a vengeful enemy from his past. At the same time, Dee’s wife, Jane, is sent by Queen Elizabeth I to console her cousin, Mary, Queen of Scots, as court advisors attempt to try her for treason. But Jane suspects her assignment is much more than a visit from a sympathetic cousin. Is it possible that Elizabeth sent her to speed Mary to her death without the public trial that she knows will forever define the limits of royal power? Together, John and Jane begin to feel genuine sympathy for the Scottish queen and work to finish his invention, protect their son, and save Mary from the scaffold. But can they do that while remaining loyal to the English crown?

Spitting Gold
A deliciously haunting debut for fans of Sarah Waters and Sarah Penner set in 19th-century Paris, blending gothic mystery with a captivating sapphic romance as two estranged sisters—celebrated (and fraudulent) spirit mediums—come back together for one last con. Paris, 1866. When Baroness Sylvie Devereux receives a house call from Charlotte Mothe, the sister she disowned, she fears her shady past as a spirit medium has caught up with her. But with their father ill and Charlotte unable to pay his bills, Sylvie is persuaded into one last con. Their marks are the de Jacquinots: dysfunctional aristocrats who believe they are haunted by their great aunt, brutally murdered during the French Revolution. The scheme underway, the sisters deploy every trick to terrify the family out of their gold. But when inexplicable horrors start to happen to them too, the duo question whether they really are at the mercy of a vengeful spirit. And what other deep, dark secrets may come to light?
The Paradigm of Conversion in Luke
Conversion is a main theological theme in the Lukan corpus. Since much attention has been paid to the issue in Acts, the present work shows how the evangelist also conveys his theological emphasis on conversion in his gospel through material either unique to it or that Luke has edited to this purpose. Attention is paid to the different issues involved in Luke's emphasis on conversion and an attempt is made to place them within the larger spectrum of his theology. The grouping of all these elements provides the basis for constructing Luke's paradigm of conversion.
Pharmacology in Clinical Neurosciences
The pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of several drugs is expected to be known to clinicians and researchers at all times. With advances in sciences and development of newer drugs very frequently, it is very important to keep your knowledge updated at all times.

Cometerra
Literatura é uma história bem contada, certamente, mas pode ser muito mais: retrato de uma realidade, um grito de basta, uma denúncia, um pedido de socorro. Dolores Reyes, ao escrever este livro, fez tudo isso e muito mais. Com a habilidade dos narradores tecelões, a escritora conta a história da menina que, ao comer terra, tem visões extraordinárias, revelando segredos demasiadamente humanos. Em suas visões, ela retrata os subúrbios da América Latina (e do mundo inteiro), e as dores e violências sofridas por suas mulheres. Mas como a literatura é uma arte muito milagrosa, faz isso com invenção e graça renovadas, contando a novidade do que está consagrado, e a necessidade de nos reinventar, de fazermos justiça e de estarmos atentos.
