She is determined to make a new life in a new place with a new name. Who is the real Katie? What is she hiding? Plagued by paranoia, fear, and memory issues, Katie is satisfied with her self-imposed isolation until her calm is broken when two very different men notice her. One is infatuated. One is obsessed.

The Dust Bowl
This “riveting” companion to the PBS documentary “clarifies our understanding of the ‘worst manmade ecological disaster in American history’” (Booklist). In this riveting chronicle, Dayton Duncan and Ken Burns capture the profound drama of the American Dust Bowl of the 1930s. Terrifying photographs of mile-high dust storms, along with firsthand accounts by more than two dozen eyewitnesses, bring to life this heart-wrenching catastrophe, when a combination of drought, wind, and poor farming practices turned millions of acres of the Great Plains into a wasteland, killing crops and livestock, threatening the lives of small children, burying homesteaders’ hopes under huge dunes of dirt—and setting in motion a mass migration the likes of which the nation had never seen. Burns and Duncan collected more than three hundred mesmerizing photographs, some never before published, scoured private letters, government reports, and newspaper articles, and conducted in-depth interviews to produce a document that may likely be the last recorded testimony of the generation who lived through this defining decade.
The Home Fires: Wartime Letters Written from Mother to Son
The Home Fires is a true story of the unconditional love of a mother for her first-born son away in the U.S. Navy during World War Two. This emotion is rivetingly documented through the letters written by Helen Price to her son, Edwin, from his arrival in basic training in October of 1944 through to the dropping of the atomic bombs over Japan in August of 1945. Not merely a unique supplement to the historical perspective of the World War Two era, these letters illustrate the detail of Helen's everyday life, her hopes, her fears, her dreams, her foibles, and her courage. Written from the family farm in the Bustleton section of Philadelphia, this account will powerfully touch every parent who has ever had any concerns about their child leaving home for the first time. More than 60 years after they had been written, these letters are being published for the first time. They have been lovingly edited for clarity by Helen's grandson, Gregory Edwin Price.
