  • The Lost Symbol

    Dan Brown

    Hardcover (Doubleday Books, Sept. 15, 2009)
    In this stunning follow-up to the global phenomenon The Da Vinci Code, Dan Brown demonstrates once again why he is the world’s most popular thriller writer. The Lost Symbol is a masterstroke of storytelling--a deadly race through a real-world labyrinth of codes, secrets, and unseen truths . . . all under the watchful eye of Brown’s most terrifying villain to date. Set within the hidden chambers, tunnels, and temples of Washington, D.C., The Lost Symbol accelerates through a startling landscape toward an unthinkable finale. As the story opens, Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is summoned unexpectedly to deliver an evening lecture in the U.S. Capitol Building. Within minutes of his arrival, however, the night takes a bizarre turn. A disturbing object--artfully encoded with five symbols--is discovered in the Capitol Building. Langdon recognizes the object as an ancient invitation . . . one meant to usher its recipient into a long-lost world of esoteric wisdom. When Langdon’s beloved mentor, Peter Solomon--a prominent Mason and philanthropist--is brutally kidnapped, Langdon realizes his only hope of saving Peter is to accept this mystical invitation and follow wherever it leads him. Langdon is instantly plunged into a clandestine world of Masonic secrets, hidden history, and never-before-seen locations--all of which seem to be dragging him toward a single, inconceivable truth. As the world discovered in The Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons, Dan Brown’s novels are brilliant tapestries of veiled histories, arcane symbols, and enigmatic codes. In this new novel, he again challenges readers with an intelligent, lightning-paced story that offers surprises at every turn. The Lost Symbol is exactly what Brown’s fans have been waiting for . . . his most thrilling novel yet.

  • Jeannette Rankin: America's First Congresswoman

    Peter Aronson

    Paperback (Double M Books, March 4, 2019)
    JEANNETTE RANKIN: AMERICA'S FIRST CONGRESSWOMAN, a book for middle-grade readers, tells the inspiring true story of one of America's most prominent women of the 20th Century. Jeannette Rankin was born on a Montana ranch in 1880, in the valley of the Bitterroot Mountains, in a pioneer’s land. She would leave this land to make a lasting mark on her country. Rankin was the first woman elected to Congress, in 1916, a full century before Hillary Clinton ran for president. A devout pacifist, Rankin was the only member of Congress to vote against the U.S. fighting in World Wars I and II. Over the span of 60 years, she would become one of America’s foremost feminists, pacifists and suffragists. In her 80s, Rankin led a march in Washington against the Vietnam War. She fought for what she believed in. She never backed down. This book is the second in the author's Groundbreaker Series: Middle-grade biographies about extraordinary people who did extraordinary things.
