For fans of Lee Child and Brad Thor, an unstoppable thriller set in 1988 when—a mere 100 hours before world leaders gather for the G7 summit—police get a hot tip that an assassin is on the way. It’s a long-shot mission. No one thinks much of the information the Toronto chief of police receives from a mysterious source: a would-be assassin is about to cross the border into Canada to kill the heads of the seven most powerful countries in the world. Undeterred, he sends young police officer Ari Greene to a sleepy Quebec–Vermont border town to investigate. During a festive and colourful July 4th parade, Greene spots his unlikely target and gives chase across borders and boundaries. But as the hours and the minutes until the summit tick down, bodies start to pile up… And no one, not even international heads of state, are safe. This prequel to Robert Rotenberg’s bestselling series, including What We Buried and Downfall, is an excellent introduction to one of Toronto’s favourite detectives, Ari Greene, on his first-ever case. An enthralling action thriller in the tradition of Frederick Forsyth’s The Day of the Jackal and Robert Ludlum’s Jason Bourne series, One Minute More is sure to delight readers of Rotenberg’s previous books and attract a whole new audience.
Surviving the Evacuation 23: One Minute More
Was anyone else alive? With each kilometre travelled, Maggs Espoir is increasingly certain the answer is no. In the aftermath of the outbreak, most people barricaded their homes or fled to somewhere remote. Maggs and her husband, Etienne, went to work, ensuring the electricity supply for Quebec and beyond. When the mushroom clouds rose above Montreal, the lights finally went out, and Maggs and Etienne were separated. In the year since, Maggs hasn’t stopped searching for her husband or given up hope that he’s still alive. Between bandits, plagues, and the ever-present undead, Maggs and her small community are forced to flee one refuge after another. As civilisation fades into memory, the roads become increasingly treacherous. Strangers are more likely to offer a gunshot than a welcome. Medicines run out. Food runs scarce. Only the undead endure. As the long winter finally comes to an end, her community is forced to accept that they might be among the very last survivors in North America, if not the world. For some, this realisation brings despair. Others see the increasing division as an opportunity for power. With factionalism rising, Maggs is tempted to strike out on her own, until the chance sighting of a plane suggests they aren’t alone after all. A plane means more than just survivors. It means a runway, a fuel supply, and enough food security that some people can be spared from farming. It means civilisation. And if those people survived the evacuation, then perhaps her husband survived, too. A story of love, loss, and determination, set in the Pacific Northwest, three months before the events of Book 22.
One Minute to Zen
From the political climate to natural disasters, to managing the stress and overwhelm of everyday life, women have more to deal with than ever. Life feels overwhelming and exhausting much of the time. The third in her Hot Mess to Mindful Mom series, One Minute to Zen will provide numerous tools to help deal with stress in one minute, the same amount of time it can take for all hell to break loose! When teaching moms across the country, while giving talks to corporations, and across Ali’s thriving social media channels, people are asking for more tools to use quickly and effectively to help recover from the stress they face in daily life. In One Minute to Zen, Ali has compiled a list of tools that make it possible to recalibrate, achieve balance, and recover from stress quickly and with ease, in order to live a more mindful and joyful life. Known for her authenticity and relatability, Ali shares personal stories and anecdotes to help connect her audience and show how to really put her suggestions to use. The goal is to put these tools into the hands of every mother who needs them (we all do!) and also teach them how to pass them on to their children, thus creating in each family a chain reaction of calm and confidence when faced with challenges big and small.
