Upon discovering he is a trauma surgeon at a Massachusetts teaching hospital, she impulsively changes her pathology residency program of choice to his center. She wants to be near him. She wants to know what he’s up to. She wants to protect her family. See you in the ring soon, Dr. Sam Donovan. The bell has rung.

Adoption and Multiculturalism
Adoption and Multiculturalism features the voices of international scholars reflecting transnational and transracial adoption and its relationship to notions of multiculturalism. The essays trouble common understandings about who is being adopted, who is adopting, and where these acts are taking place, challenging in fascinating ways the tidy master narrative of saviorhood and the concept of a monolithic Western receiving nation. Too often the presumption is that the adoptive and receiving country is one that celebrates racial and ethnic diversity, thus making it superior to the conservative and insular places from which adoptees arrive. The volume’s contributors subvert the often simplist...

Wednesday Is Indigo Blue
How the extraordinary multisensory phenomenon of synesthesia has changed our traditional view of the brain. A person with synesthesia might feel the flavor of food on her fingertips, sense the letter “J” as shimmering magenta or the number “5” as emerald green, hear and taste her husband's voice as buttery golden brown. Synesthetes rarely talk about their peculiar sensory gift—believing either that everyone else senses the world exactly as they do, or that no one else does. Yet synesthesia occurs in one in twenty people, and is even more common among artists. One famous synesthete was novelist Vladimir Nabokov, who insisted as a toddler that the colors on his wooden alphabet blocks...
Malignant Assumptions
“an exciting and…satisfying read”—Kirkus Reviews “fantastic novel”—Readers’ Favorite “You can always be a helper.” Liza Larkin, a socially aberrant pathology resident, relies on these words of her late father to guide her through a world she doesn’t feel a part of. If not for his training over the years and her psychiatrist’s ongoing care, she might be in jail—or worse. So when her colleague, Megan, worries something awful has happened to her aunt, Liza does what she has learned to do. She helps. She drives Megan to Boston to look for the woman. It doesn’t take long. Megan’s aunt lies dead in her condo, in what is soon ruled a freakish accident. But Liza doesn’t buy it. She suspects foul play, and with a formal police investigation now off the table, she’ll hunt for the murderer herself, even if it means coloring outside moral lines yet again. Because justice should always be served.
