Finn's Journal
As a child, genius Yury Shinault witnessed the brutal murders of her mother and stepfather before being kidnapped along with—and eventually separated from—her identical triplet sisters. Raised in seclusion by a military couple, she has only fragmented memories of the murders and her sisters, but she is highly trained in a number of grueling military survival and combat skills. While she searches for her sisters and attempts to piece together her past, she joins an elite FBI investigative team. Her colleagues are quickly drawn into her troubled world as, unbeknownst to Yury or her new friends, her quest to bring her mother’s killer to justice overlaps with an ongoing FBI investigation into the disappearances of several young women whose bodies were never found. As the threads are woven together, a net is created to capture a sociopath...placing Yury, her sisters and their friends and colleagues in great danger.

The Writer and the Overseas Childhood
What does Ian McEwan have in common with Barbara Kingsolver? Or The Shack's William Paul Young with The Way the Crow Flies' Ann-Marie MacDonald? All four spent significant portions of their formative years overseas as expatriates; all four are third culture kids. These authors share experiences of cultural and geographical displacement that fracture constructions of home and identity, as their fiction attests. This study surveys 17 authors with "expat" backgrounds to define "third culture literature," a burgeoning yet unrecognized branch of international writing characterized by expressions of dislocation, loss, and disenfranchisement. By explicating how the shared cultural details of these writers emerge in literary themes and images, this work introduces third culture literature as a separate field, reinterpreting the work of major writers from across the globe.

The Ballad of Lord Edward and Citizen Small
From Academy Award-winning film director Neil Jordan comes an artful reimagining of an extraordinary friendship spanning the revolutionary tumult of the eighteenth century. South Carolina, 1781: the American Revolution. An enslaved man escaping to his freedom saves the life of Lord Edward Fitzgerald, a British army officer and the younger son of one of Ireland's grandest families. The tale that unfolds is narrated by Tony Small, the formerly enslaved man who becomes Fitzgerald's companion—and best friend. While details of Lord Edward's life are well documented, little is known of Tony Small, who is at the heart of this moving novel. In this gripping narrative, his character considers the ironies of empire, captivity, and freedom, mapping Lord Edward's journey from being a loyal subject of the British Empire to becoming a leader of the disastrous Irish rebellion of 1798. This powerful new work of fiction brings Neil Jordan's inimitable storytelling ability to the revolutions that shaped the eighteenth century—in America, France, and, finally, in Ireland.
