Is Missy being set up? He has the county DA and sheriff on one side, his wife on the other, his estranged friend, Nate, on a lethal mission of his own, and some powerful interests breathing down his neck. There's no telling which way this case will go -- but there's no doubt that Joe Pickett will be between a rock and a hard place.

Twice in her life, college counselor Gayla Oliver fell in love at first sight. The first time was with Brian -- a lean, longhaired, British bass player. Marriage followed quickly, then twins, and gradually their bohemian lifestyle gave way to busy careers in New York. Gayla's second love affair is with New Bern, Connecticut. Like Brian, the laid back town is charming without trying too hard. It's the ideal place to buy a second home and reignite the spark in their twenty-six year marriage. Not that Gayla is worried. At least, not until she finds a discarded memo in which Brian admits to a past affair and suggests an amicable divorce.

A cautionary tale about the fragility of democracy‚ It Can't Happen Here is an alarming‚ eerily timeless look at how fascism takes hold. Written during the Great Depression‚ when America was largely oblivious to Hitler's aggression‚ it juxtaposes sharp political satire with the chillingly realistic rise of a democratically elected president who becomes a dictator. During the presidential election of 1936‚ Doremus Jessup‚ a newspaper editor‚ observes with dismay that many of the people he knows support the candidacy of Berzelius Windrip. When Windrip wins‚ he gains control of Congress and the Supreme Court‚ and‚ with the aid of his personal paramilitary storm troopers‚ turns the United States into a totalitarian state.

It is the spring of 1939 and three generations of the Kurc family are doing their best to live normal lives, even as the shadow of war grows closer.

But soon the horrors overtaking Europe will become inescapable and the Kurcs will be flung to the far corners of the world, each desperately trying to navigate his or her own path to safety.
