#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Meet Jason Bourne. He has no past. And he may have no future. The basis for the critically acclaimed major motion picture starring Matt Damon! His memory is a blank. He only knows that he was fished out of the Mediterranean Sea, his body riddled with bullets. There are a few clues. A frame of microfilm surgically implanted beneath the flesh of his hip. Evidence that plastic surgery has altered his face. Strange things that he says in his delirium—maybe code words. Initials: “J. B.” And a number on the film negative that leads to a Swiss bank account, a fortune of four million dollars, and, at last, a name: Jason Bourne. But now he is marked for death, caught in a maddening puzzle, racing for survival through the deep layers of his buried past into a bizarre world of murderous conspirators—led by Carlos, the world’s most dangerous assassin. And no one can help Jason Bourne but the woman who once wanted to escape him. “[Robert] Ludlum stuffs more surprises into his novels than any other six-pack of thriller writers combined.”—The New York Times Jason Bourne’s adventures continue: THE BOURNE IDENTITY • THE BOURNE SUPREMACY • THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM

'A fascinating journey that illuminates, in often thought-provoking ways, the politics of violence in radical movements' Angela Davis The son of the FBI's most wanted woman tells the electrifying story of a childhood on the run - and a half-century of revolutionary struggle in America We all grapple with a past that defines us: culture, religion, a family story. But what happens when you inherit a revolution? Zayd Ayers Dohrn was born underground. His parents were fugitives after a decade fighting the US government; his mother co-founded a leftist radical group called the Weathermen, and replaced Angela Davis on the FBI's Ten Most Wanted List. All his life, Dohrn's parents said his birth marked a clean break with violent revolutionary struggle but, in this explosive memoir, he discovers that story wasn't entirely true. Dangerous, Dirty, Violent and Young offers a page-turning account of an infamous family and their life in hiding, as well as the political battles of the '60s and '70s. At its heart it asks big questions: how can a child survive when the place they feel safest - with their family - also puts them in danger? What does it mean to be a good revolutionary, and how should young people today try to change the world?

A zany and sexy romance about a woman who finds herself stranded on a far-off planet and mated to the warlord alien king, from USA Today bestselling author Kimberly Lemming. It’s not in Blair’s nature to just give up. Not when she’s beamed up to a spaceship and then dropped on an alien planet. Not even when she’s in the middle of a forest fire surrounded by dinosaurs.

But absolutely nothing could have prepared her for finding out that she’s that arrogant King Osid’s mate. Despite recent hiccups, the alien researchers are determined to get their breeding program back on track. With that in mind, Blair and Osid are bundled off to the research center for what they’re told is couples counseling. As they face a series of increasingly dangerous challenges, it soon becomes clear the research aliens may have confused an episode of The Bachelor with Survivor.

When they discover that there are—somehow—even more secret plans in the works, another hilarious, steamy, over-the-top adventure is in store.
