As pillars of their close-knit community, the MacAvoys, Kapenashes, Drakes, and Wheelers are important to their friends and neighbors, and especially to each other.

As the warm weather approaches and the island mourns their loss, nothing can prepare the MacAvoy's closest friends for what will be revealed.

Shaken by a painful divorce, successful television writer Debra Barry leaves New York for the beautiful countryside of New Hampshire, where she hopes to find peace and solitude to mend her wounded heart. The old house she's bought, though, needs as much repairing as her own shattered emotions. To make it the home she's always wanted, she seeks the help of master cerpenter Graham Reid, a compellingly enigmatic man seemingly as hard as granite itself.
Hiding from his own bitter past, Graham reluctantly agrees to take the job, not suspecting that his own life is about to be altered as well. As the house begins to come together, he and Debra unexpectedly find themselves laying their own emotional groundwork. Drawn together by desire, can these two wounded lovers find the courage to tear down the walls between them and build on the promise of new love?

He's the one who alerted her late mentor to her iffy past and got her fired. But just because he doesn't trust her doesn't mean he can resist her.

Massachusetts Chief Medical Examiner Kay Scarpetta has just returned from working one of the worst mass murders in U.S. history when she’s awakened at an early hour by Detective Pete Marino.
A body, oddly draped in an unusual cloth, has just been discovered inside the sheltered gates of MIT and it’s suspected the identity is that of missing computer engineer Gail Shipton, last seen the night before at a trendy Cambridge bar. It appears she’s been murdered, mere weeks before the trial of her $100 million lawsuit against her former financial managers, and Scarpetta doubts it’s a coincidence. She also fears the case may have a connection with her computer genius niece, Lucy.
At a glance there is no sign of what killed Gail Shipton, but she’s covered with a fine dust that under ultraviolet light fluoresces brilliantly in three vivid colors, what Scarpetta calls a mineral fingerprint. Clearly the body has been posed with chilling premeditation that is symbolic and meant to shock, and Scarpetta has reason to worry that the person responsible is the Capital Murderer, whose most recent sexual homicides have terrorized Washington, D.C. Stunningly, Scarpetta will discover that her FBI profiler husband, Benton Wesley, is convinced that certain people in the government, including his boss, don’t want the killer caught.
In Dust, Scarpetta and her colleagues are up against a force far more sinister than a sexual predator who fits the criminal classification of a "spectacle killer." The murder of Gail Shipton soon leads deep into the dark world of designer drugs, drone technology, organized crime, and shocking corruption at the highest levels.
With unparalleled high-tension suspense and the latest in forensic technology, Patricia Cornwell once again proves her exceptional ability to surprise—and to thrill.

It's a profile, like all the others on the online dating site. But as NYPD Detective Kat Donovan focuses on the accompanying picture, she feels her whole world explode, as emotions she’s ignored for decades come crashing down on her. Staring back at her is her ex-fiancé Jeff, the man who shattered her heart—and who she hasn’t seen in 18 years.
Kat feels a spark, wondering if this might be the moment when past tragedies recede and a new world opens up to her. But when she reaches out to the man in the profile, her reawakened hope quickly darkens into suspicion and then terror as an unspeakable conspiracy comes to light, in which monsters prey upon the most vulnerable.
As the body count mounts and Kat's hope for a second chance with Jeff grows more and more elusive, she is consumed by an investigation that challenges her feelings about everyone she ever loved—her former fiancé, her mother, and even her father, whose cruel murder so long ago has never been fully explained. With lives on the line, including her own, Kat must venture deeper into the darkness than she ever has before, and discover if she has the strength to survive what she finds there.

Falling for a handsome stranger on the very morning they meet is hardly what recently divorced Abby Miller planned for her return to Seaview Key. Hoping to mend an old friendship and to give back to the community she loves, Abby's definitely not looking for love.
For ex-soldier Seth Landry, Seaview Key seems like the perfect place to heal a broken heart…eventually. And when he rescues a beautiful woman on the beach, his nightmares about the past are eclipsed by daydreams about the future. Neither Abby nor Seth are looking for forever, but powerful love has its own timetable. And taking a chance on the future will test their courage in ways neither of them could possibly have anticipate.

It's summer on Nantucket, and as the season begins, three
women arrive at the local airport, observed by Josh, a local
boy, home from college. Burdened with small children,
unwieldy straw hats, and some obvious emotional issues,
the women--two sisters and one friend--make their way to
the sisters' tiny cottage, inherited from an aunt. They're all
trying to escape from something: Melanie, after seven failed
in-vitro attempts, discovered her husband's infidelity and
then her own pregnancy; Brenda embarked on a passionate
affair with an older student that got her fired from her
prestigious job as a professor in New York; and her sister
Vickie, mother to two small boys, has been diagnosed with
cancer. Soon Josh is part of the chaotic household, acting
as babysitter, confidant, and, eventually, something
more, while the women confront their pasts and map out
their futures.

Bonjour,
Essayez de deviner quel auteur nous avons rencontré à
Malaga. Il est très connu pour ses
" libros para niños". Premier indice: regardez bien à sa droite il
est accompagné d'un de ses personnages très connu même si il est vilain.

La Lune Rousse, ou Pink Moon
Marie-Pier Tremblay
Rédactrice - MétéoMédia
Il existe par ailleurs une longue tradition d’agriculteurs qui croient que la Lune a un effet non négligeable sur les végétaux. Constitués majoritairement d’eau, ils seraient soumis selon eux à l’influence de la Lune, de la même manière que la marée des mers et des océans. Ainsi, les agriculteurs se sont dotés d’un calendrier indiquant comment jardiner avec la Lune. La pleine Lune de mai était donc un moment privilégié pour planter les grains de maïs.
La Lune Rousse
La Lune Rousse, ou Pink Moon en anglais, se veut la période de lunaison après Pâques, qui s’étale de la nouvelle Lune d’avril à la nouvelle Lune de mai. Pendant cette période, les risques de gel au sol demeurent présents, ce qui peut être dévastateur pour les semences.
Selon le dicton, la Lune Rousse brûle les jeunes pousses. À tout moment de l’année, la lune peut être rougeâtre pendant lorsqu’elle est basse sur l’horizon. Dans le cas qui nous occupe, on attribue sa couleur rouge à la teinte que prennent les pousses de végétaux brûlées par le froid.
La croyance populaire voulait que la Lune soit la cause de ce gel. Plus tard, on découvrit que les nuits où la Lune est visible sont des nuits où le ciel est dégagé, ce qui permet à la chaleur de la Terre de s’échapper en l’absence de nuages. Les gelées nocturnes sont alors fréquentes.
Le dernier gel survient en moyenne le 28 avril à Montréal, le 8 mai à Québec et le 19 mai à Saguenay. C’est pourquoi il est conseillé d’attendre après la Lune Rousse pour sortir vos semis.

Mercredi 14 mai 2014 à 21 h 00 - Comme la plupart des pleines Lunes, celle qui brillera le 14 mai possède plus d’un nom. Selon qu’elle soit tirée d’une légende algonquine ou de l’Almanach du fermier, on l’appelle Lune des Fleurs, Lune de la Plantation du Maïs ou encore Lune Rousse.
Son nom de Lune des Fleurs lui vient simplement de la période de l’année où elle apparaît, qui correspond à la floraison abondante dans plusieurs régions.Il existe par ailleurs une longue tradition d’agriculteurs qui croient que la Lune a un effet non négligeable sur les végétaux. Constitués majoritairement d’eau, ils seraient soumis selon eux à l’influence de la Lune, de la même manière que la marée des mers et des océans.

Robert Moreno, an American citizen living in South America, is shot in the Bahamas by a sniper. The killing was commissioned by the U.S. government, who received a tip-off that Moreno was planning a terrorist attack on a U.S. oil company headquarters. But this intelligence was fatally incorrect: anti-American Moreno ordered a protest at the oil company, not an attack.
Lincoln Rhyme and Amelia Sachs are drafted in to investigate. While Sachs traces Moreno’s steps in New York, Rhyme travels to the scene of the crime in Nassau, where he finds himself on a dangerous path trailed by the sniper himself. As details of the case start to emerge, the pair discover that not all is what it seemed. Can they achieve justice and escape with their lives intact?

Drowned, set in the idyllic countryside during a short-lived Swedish summer, gets under one’s skin from the first page, creating an atmosphere of foreboding in which even the perfume of freshly picked vegetables roasting in the kitchen becomes ominous.
On the surface, the story couldn’t be simpler. A single young woman visits her older sister, who is married to a writer as charismatic as he is violent. As the young woman falls under her brother-in-law’s spell, the plot unfolds in a series of precisely rendered turns. Meanwhile the reader, anticipating the worst, hopes against hope that disaster can be averted.
More than a mere thriller, this debut novel delves deep into the feminine soul and at the same time exposes the continuing oppression of women in Sweden’s supposedly enlightened society. Mixing hothouse sensuality with ice-cold fear on every page, Drowned heralds the emergence of a major new talent on the international scene. (378 pages)
