The
Room of White Fire: T. Jefferson Parker
Roland Ford is good at finding people. But when he's
asked to locate Air Force veteran Clay Hickman, he's
been drawn into something deep and dark. He knows the
weight of war, having served as a Marine in First
Fallujah; he also knows the nightmare of personal pain,
as only two years have passed since his young wife's
sudden death. What he doesn't know is why a shroud of
secrecy hangs over the disappearance of Hickman - and
why he's getting a different story from everyone
involved. Soon, what began as just a job becomes a
life-and-death obsession for Ford, pitting him against
immensely powerful and treacherous people and forcing
him to contend with chilling questions about truth,
justice, and the American way.

When Colombian drug lords assassinate both the U.S.
ambassador and the visiting head of the FBI, their
actions trigger a covert response from the American
government - a response that goes horribly wrong. As the
newly named Deputy Director of Intelligence for the CIA,
Jack Ryan should be privy to operations like the one in
Colombia, but he's been left completely in the dark.
With the help of field officer John Clark, Ryan intends
to find out what's really going on. But while they
expect danger from without, the greatest threat of all
may come from within.

Crime
Scene: Jonathan Kellerman
Natural causes or foul play? That's the question Clay
Edison must answer each time he examines a body.
Figuring out motives and chasing down suspects aren't
part of his beat - not until a seemingly open-and-shut
case proves to be more than meets his highly trained
eye. Eccentric, reclusive Walter Rennert lies cold at
the bottom of his stairs. At first glance the scene
looks straightforward: a once-respected psychology
professor, done in by booze and a bad heart. But his
daughter Tatiana insists that her father has been
murdered, and she persuades Clay to take a closer look
at the grim facts of Rennert's life. What emerges is a
history of scandal and violence, and an experiment gone
horribly wrong that ended in the brutal murder of a
coed. Walter Rennert, it appears, was a broken man - and
maybe a marked one. And when Clay learns that a
colleague of Rennert's died in a nearly identical
manner, he begins to question everything in the official
record.

well-honed instincts to get to the truth without
ruffling the wrong feathers - because when it comes to

we had found his secret. And suddenly, our summer of
innocence turned into the stuff of nightmares. Nothing
would ever be the same again.

number of militant fringe groups.
