The Judas Kiss
The author of the #1 national bestseller Blood & Orchids presents a novel of dark revenge--a heart-stopping World War II thriller. After the Nazis occupy Vienna, Carly Siefermann marries a powerful member of the Third Reich in exchange for her Jewish lover's exit visa. Carly never dreams that the baron will renege on the agreement . . . just as the baron never suspects Carly is the elusive agent "Domino"--the Gestapo's most wanted enemy.
My Opa
My Opa is the diary of Rabbi Dr. Isaac Rosenberg, who lived from 1860 until 1940. This diary provides a glimpse into German Jewish life nearly twenty years before its ultimate destruction. The diary documents the pastoral life of a German Orthodox rabbi in the Jewish community of Thorn, a small city in Eastern Germany. By means of daily entries spanning the years of 1911 to 1920, the momentous events of the Great War are described. Rabbi Rosenberg provides an incisive commentary on the military and political aspects of the war. His predictions of what was to come had an uncanny prescience. My Opa is Dr. Fred Gottlieb's compilation and translation of the original volumes that comprised some 500 pages of tightly-spaced notes in German, Hebrew, Yiddish, shorthand, and Latin.

The Impossible Collection of Watches (2nd Edition)
For this update to the 2014 original edition, British historian and journalist Nicholas Foulkes has selected the 100 breakthrough timepieces developed since the advent of the twentieth century, weighing the virtues of rarity, costliness, innovative functions, historical importance, grand provenance and pleasing design. The watch—a microcosm of hundreds of minute components interacting harmoniously with each other and bound within a case of precious metal—has the power to awaken emotions, excite the imagination and inspire the same passion as great art. Beautiful timepieces invite us to join a story, and the narrative that these 100 examples unfold is that of one of the most exciting and dynamic periods in human history.
