The Singer
Rennie Starr is a mechanic at a Cadillac dealership, a skill he learned from his father. One night he gets a chance to sing with a band at a club in his home town in Southern California. A long-time church choir member, he has a fine baritone voice. The band plays the classic pop tunes from the 1930s and 40's and 50's, his father's favorites, which he knows well. Before long he is a popular local singer, and soon he starts attracting attention from all over Southern California. He is especially popular with the females in the audience, both for his smooth baritone and his handsome appearance. Romance seems possible, but will it be real, or just a temporary fling? When he gets invited to appear in Nashville with a popular female country singer, his career seems ready to take off. When other options appear, he has to make choices. He discovers that there is a price to pay for fame, and he wonders whether he is willing to pay it. He soon finds that stardom can be a lonely place in which to dwell even at the top.

The Sacred Art Of Stealing
The second book in the Angelique De Xavier series, from author Christopher Brookmyre. Their eyes met across a crowded room. She was just a poor servant girl and he was the son of a rich industrialist. Er, no, this is a Christopher Brookmyre novel, although the eyes meeting across a crowded room part is true. Where it differs from the fairy tales is that the room in question was crowded with hostages and armed bank-robbers, and his eyes were the only part of him she could see behind the mask. He is an art-thief par excellence and she is a connoisseur of crooks. Her job is to hunt him to extinction; his is to avoid being caught and he also has a secret agenda more valuable than anything he might steal. There are risks he can take without jeopardising his plans. He can afford to play cat-and-mouse with the female cop who's on his tail; it might even arguably be necessary. What he can't afford is to let her get too close: he could could end up in jail or, even more scary, he could end up in love ...
