The Ransom Note
Impossible demands will only breed trouble. Nick Severance and his pregnant wife Mariko leave Japan for the United Kingdom, intending to settle there and bring up their child. Nick is offered his first case as a private investigator in London. There are two things his client, the CEO of a hotel group, wants to know. Can the ransomware gang that paralysed the group's IT systems be tracked down and brought to justice? And was the hit and run that killed his son Gordon, who was the group's IT security director, really an accident? Nick agrees to find answers to those questions. The most promising lead comes in the shape of Gordon's mysterious girlfriend, who it seems nobody met until the day of his funeral. In trying to establish just where she fits in, Nick uncovers a plot to compromise the security of the country. His discovery puts him and Mariko at serious risk, and results in the kind of ransom demand that under the circumstances, nobody could ever pay. But it's a demand that won't remain unanswered. There's too much to lose.
Complete Poems
Containing more than three hundred poems, including nearly a hundred previously unpublished works, this unique collection showcases the intellectual range of Claude McKay (1889-1948), the Jamaican-born poet and novelist whose life and work were marked by restless travel and steadfast social protest. McKay's first poems were composed in rural Jamaican creole and launched his lifelong commitment to representing everyday black culture from the bottom up. Migrating to New York, he reinvigorated the English sonnet and helped spark the Harlem Renaissance with poems such as "If We Must Die." After coming under scrutiny for his communism, he traveled throughout Europe and North Africa for twelve years and returned to Harlem in 1934, having denounced Stalin's Soviet Union. By then, McKay's pristine "violent sonnets" were giving way to confessional lyrics informed by his newfound Catholicism. McKay's verse eludes easy definition, yet this complete anthology, vividly introduced and carefully annotated by William J. Maxwell, acquaints readers with the full transnational evolution of a major voice in twentieth-century poetry.
The Godzone Connection
Can you really disappear without a trace? Phoebe Fraser is an English woman working at a private bank in Tokyo. When she steals $10 million from a client’s account and then disappears, Nick and Mariko Severance are brought in as private investigators, to track her down. It looks like a simple case of greed, until the body of someone close to Phoebe washes up on a beach in Tokyo Bay. Murder becomes linked with theft and Phoebe is the main suspect. One way or another, she has to be found. The search takes Nick halfway around the world to New Zealand, where he unravels a story involving insider dealing, love and betrayal, and ultimate revenge. But he isn’t the only one searching. Certain interested parties also want to find Phoebe and for reasons of their own, silence her forever. It’s really just a question of who gets to her first.
