But she’s yet to fully accept that her fictional hero, the Viscount St. Just, has crawled out of her imagination and into her life, taking on the persona of real life hero. Couldn’t he one day poof out just as easily as he’d poofed in? Still, a hero is just what Maggie needs when she travels home to Ocean City, New Jersey, to convince her parents to reconcile (otherwise, her mother might want to come live with her), only to see her father being hauled away in handcuffs, accused of using his bowling ball to smash in the skull of one the league’s other members.

This new publication, which is extracted almost entirely from newspapers and archival sources in Scotland, follows the settlement of Scots west of the Mississippi River during the first hundred years after American Independence. Mr. Dobson's latest book identifies about 2,000 individuals who ventured to the West.

Having Everything
A Harvard Dean with a perfect life discovers a dark side he never knew he had—or wanted—in this “sharp, moving, poignant” novel (The Washington Post Book World).

But a night-time drive will lead Philip to jeopardize everything in a moment’s flirtation with the forbidden. For on that drive he will meet the Kizers: beautiful, troubled Dixie and brilliant, kinky Hal. And by stepping into the Kizers’ house and into the midst of their sad marriage, Philip sets in motion the near ruin—and perhaps the salvation—of his entire world . . .
