Sometimes you can't escape your past...Secrets and glamour from the bestselling author of A PRIVATE AFFAIR and SOUL SISTERS 'A glam-packed, thrilling read' GRAZIA 'An epic, handbag-stretching tome packed with love, secrets, lies and glamour' HEAT Known as 'The Ice Queen', Anneliese Zander de St Phalle is one of the world's most celebrated fashion designers. With an empire that stretches across continents, she's a truly global brand, in every sense. Yet despite her success, she's a mystery; a reclusive disciplined perfectionist who rarely grants interviews. She's successful and she's talented, and that's all anyone needs to know. Anneliese never talks about her past - not even to her only daughter, Callan. She's worked hard to leave it all behind her and it's a time and place to which Anneliese will never return. Or so she thinks. At an exclusive New Year's Eve party at her glamorous island hideaway, a woman appears whom Anneliese has done her best to forget. On the cusp of her retirement, at the height of Anneliese' fame, the stranger brings a story that demands to be told. To Anneliese's horror, the past cannot be left behind; it is here, part and parcel of the present, despite everything she's done to forget it...

Søren Kierkegaard, the nineteenth-century Danish philosopher rediscovered in the twentieth century, is a major influence in contemporary philosophy, religion, and literature. He regarded Either/Or as the beginning of his authorship, although he had published two earlier works on Hans Christian Andersen and irony. The pseudonymous volumes of Either/Or are the writings of a young man (I) and of Judge William (II). The ironical young man's papers include a collection of sardonic aphorisms; essays on Mozart, modern drama, and boredom; and "The Seducer's Diary." The seeming miscellany is a reflective presentation of aspects of the "either," the esthetic view of life. Part II is an older friend's "or," the ethical life of integrated, authentic personhood, elaborated in discussions of personal becoming and of marriage. The resolution of the "either/or" is left to the reader, for there is no Part III until the appearance of Stages on Life's Way. The poetic-reflective creations of a master stylist and imaginative impersonator, the two men write in distinctive ways appropriate to their respective positions.

'Even the biographical individual is a social category', wrote Adorno. ‘It can only be defined in a living context together with others.’ In this major new biography, Stefan Müller-Doohm turns this maxim back on Adorno himself and provides a rich and comprehensive account of the life and work of one of the most brilliant minds of the twentieth century. This authoritative biography ranges across the whole of Adorno's life and career, from his childhood and student years to his years in emigration in the United States and his return to postwar Germany. At the same time, Muller-Doohm examines the full range of Adorno's writings on philosophy, sociology, literary theory, music theory and cultural criticism. Drawing on an array of sources from Adorno's personal correspondence with Horkheimer, Benjamin, Berg, Marcuse, Kracauer and Mann to interviews, notes and both published and unpublished writings, Muller-Doohm situates Adorno's contributions in the context of his times and provides a rich and balanced appraisal of his significance in the 20th Century as a whole. Müller-Doohm's clear prose succeeds in making accessible some of the most complex areas of Adorno's thought. This outstanding biography will be the standard work on Adorno for years to come.

"Root of Deception is the latest in an exciting series packed with gritty realism and unrelenting suspense, featuring a seasoned homicide detective and a brilliant forensic dentist who combine forces to catch the most brutal and brazen kind of killers: those who leave their deadly mark behind. A Mafia don is gunned down in a Philadelphia suburb. An arrest is made. But what seems like a clear-cut case of mob violence will draw ex-Lieutenant Seymour Pinchus, the brilliant "Fox" of homicide legend, out of retirement to team up with his son, Detective Daniel Pinchus--and plunge them both into a labyrinth of rape, murder, and sabotage. Once again Seymour calls on Dr. Peter Roberts, an expert in dental forensics, for help in solving a series of sadistic crimes with one gruesome common denominator. Together they hunt a maniac who leaves a telltale bite mark on human skin, whose motive twists far into the past, and whose reign of terror has barely begun. For this killer with the signature smile is out to exact payback from everyone who made him what he is...especially the Fox.
