Book excerpt: It's one of the most dangerous and volatile countries in the world: Yemen. A Middle Eastern hotbed of corruption and insurgency and the perfect training ground for Islamic terrorists. When FBI agents John Corey and Kate Mayfield are assigned to overseas posts in Sana'a, Yemen's capital city, they are tasked with hunting down the high-ranking Al Qaeda operative responsible for the USS Cole bombing. This man, known as The Panther, is wanted for terrorist acts and multiple murders and the US government is determined to bring him down, no matter the cost. As latecomers to a deadly game, John and Kate don't know the rules, the players or the score. What they do know is that there is more to their assignment than meets the eye - and that the hunters are about to become the hunted. In an action-packed and terrifying race to take down one of the most ruthless men alive, Nelson DeMille reunites readers with his charismatic hero John Corey.

Book excerpt: For animal lovers and fans of The One and Only Ivan and Hoot, this is the uplifting story of a girl who discovers a family of panthers that were thought to be extinct, and her journey to save the species. Eleven-year-old Kiri has a secret: wild things call to her. More than anyone else, she’s always had a special connection to animals. But when Kiri has an encounter with the last known Florida panther, her life is quickly turned on end. Caught between her conservationist father, who wants to send the panther to a zoo, and the village poachers, who want to sell it to feed their families, Kiri must embark on a journey that will take her deep into the wilderness. There has to be some way to save the panther, and for her dad and the villagers to understand each other. If Kiri can’t figure out what it is, she’ll lose far more than the panthers—she’ll lose the only home she’s ever known, and the only family she has left. 2018 Green Earth Book Award Honor 2018 Colorado Book Award Winner CAL Book Award Winner Green Prize for Sustainable Literature Award Winner A Bank Street "Best Children's Book of the Year" A National Geographic Giant Traveling Map of Florida Selection "A powerful tale of a future to be avoided." —Kirkus Reviews "An eerie cautionary tale about the dangers of not protecting the environment, tackles an important theme in a compelling way...a fantastical tale with roots in real-world issues." —Booklist "Earnest, heartfelt, and passionate, this book will likely inspire new environmentalists." —Bulletin "A boldly original, profoundly wise, deeply moving book.

Book excerpt: It has marked its territory...now it's time for the kill. On the edge of the North American wilderness, eight-year-old Imogen, guided by a vision she doesn't understand, leads the rescue searchers to the drowned body of her brother while his best friend, Connla, looks on. Nearly thirty years later, in the Scottish Highlands, the tragic mystery of her brother's death haunts her. Living alone, painting the heart-stopping beauty of the landscape around her, she fills the void with precious glimpses of wild creatures. Four thousand miles away, Connla sees newspaper reports of sightings of a rare animal, setting him off on a trail that ultimately leads to Imogen. But it is not until the truth about their childhood tragedy is revealed that their wounded hearts can heal. And not before another mysterious vision has called up the distant past and averted tragedy once more.

Book excerpt: In the 1960s he exhorted students at Columbia University to burn their college to the ground. Today he’s chair of their School of the Arts film division. Jamal Joseph’s personal odyssey—from the streets of Harlem to Riker’s Island and Leavenworth to the halls of Columbia—is as gripping as it is inspiring.Eddie Joseph was a high school honor student, slated to graduate early and begin college. But this was the late 1960s in Bronx’s black ghetto, and fifteen-year-old Eddie was introduced to the tenets of the Black Panther Party, which was just gaining a national foothold. By sixteen, his devotion to the cause landed him in prison on the infamous Rikers Island—charged with conspiracy as one of the Panther 21 in one of the most emblematic criminal cases of the sixties. When exonerated, Eddie—now called Jamal—became the youngest spokesperson and leader of the Panthers’ New York chapter.He joined the “revolutionary underground,” later landing back in prison. Sentenced to more than twelve years in Leavenworth, he earned three degrees there and found a new calling. He is now chair of Columbia University’s School of the Arts film division—the very school he exhorted students to burn down during one of his most famous speeches as a Panther.In raw, powerful prose, Jamal Joseph helps us understand what it meant to be a soldier inside the militant Black Panther movement. He recounts a harrowing, sometimes deadly imprisonment as he charts his path to manhood in a book filled with equal parts rage, despair, and hope.

Book excerpt: Marge hesitated, her pulse quickening. Then she heard the low guttural laugh of a voice she recognized. A voice that chilled her the way no weather change ever would. Along with the cold grip of fear that her sudden knowledge brought was the even more terrifying knowledge of why they had come. When authorities find the body of Wildlife Officer Marge Pappas in Big Cypress Swamp, Florida, Police Detective Lena Bedrosian takes it very hard. Marge was her cousin and closest friend, so she feels frustrated and powerless when her boss, citing a conflict of interest, demands that she take an administrative leave and keep away from their investigation of Marge's death. Unable to sit by and do nothing, Lena reluctantly calls her friend and professional rival private investigator Tony Lowell to ask for help. Lowell would rather tinker with his ailing sailboat, but he agrees to lend a hand, and he quickly regrets ever getting involved. Lowell convinces his Creek Indian friend Perry Lightfoot to accompany him to Big Cypress Swamp, where none of the swamp dwellers or regional politicians seem too interested in finding the killer of a female wildlife officer. It soon becomes apparent to Lowell that many local higher-ups, along with poachers and a dangerous militia group, stand to lose if the murderer is found. And then he and Bedrosian become the quarry in a deadly earnest manhunt.

Book excerpt: "Hello to all, this message is from The Eye of the Panther. I'm glad we have your attention. By now you are wondering who we are and what we do. We will define ourselves by telling you who we aren't. We are not a peaceful organization. We are here to protect and uplift and the African American community and we will do so until our last man is standing..."The first fictional novel to depict a militant Black group in an era still obsessed with peaceful protesting, The Eye of the Panther is unlike any black civil rights organization. Determined to eradicate white supremacy, they will not ask for rights they're entitled too. Through the use of radical and ruthless methods, The Eye of the Panther will get what's theirs by any means necessary
