Story summaries

  • The Red Fox
    • By Anthony Hyde
    • It is a shock to Robert Thorne when May Brightman, the woman he had loved and lost years before, comes back into his life. There is a troubling mystery connecting May's birth with the sudden disappearance of the father who is so important to her, and now she implores Robert to help her find him. The discovery of Harry Brightman's body in his car, apparently a suicide victim, is only the beginning of an amazing quest which takes Thorne from the forests of New England to a doctor's surgery in Nova Scotia, and from a canal barge in Paris to a remote Russian village. As Thorne pieces together the Brightmans' story he also finds himself penetrating the dark world of international espionage, and the solution to the mystery reaches even into Thorne's own past. Thorne knows that powerful and dangerous men are following the same trail as himself, men who think nothing of killing and torturing to discover the devastating truth about the Red Fox...

  • The Two Farms
    • By Mary E. Pearce
    • Once, the two farms nestled together peacefully in the lush English countryside. To the east was Peele, neat and prosperous, owned by John Sutton. To the west was Godsakes, home of Morris Riddler, a man plagued by bad luck and bad judgment. Over the years, as Godsakes slips ever closer to ruin, the peace between the farms turns into a bitter contest--a contest Godsakes seems certain to lose. Then a new player enters the drama. Jim Lundy has been raised as a gentleman, but he has a farmer's love of the soil in his blood. And when a cruel betrayal reminds him all too bluntly of his humble origins, he pits the two farms against each other as never before. It is revenge that Jim seeks. What he finds is far more precious. An enchanting story, as warm and rich as the land it celebrates.

  • Trauma
    • By John J. Fried and John G. West, M.D.
    • "We're running out of time!" shouts Dr. Allan Kirk. "I need a surgeon in here!" Before him on the emergency room table lays a critically injured accident victim. Too many minutes have already vanished from the "golden hour"--that crucial period when a trauma patient's vital signs must be stabilized. Rushing to the telephone, Kirk is stunned to hear the on-call surgeon say, "That patient is as good as dead, Doctor. Learn when to give up!" Shaking with anger, Kirk fights on alone, and the bitter death that follows will change his life. The young doctor soon launches a crusade to prevent more needless deaths. But when a probe into his city's emergency health care exposes some shocking truths, he becomes enmeshed in a scandal that could shatter his career...and his dream for the lifesaving trauma center that is so desperately needed.

  • Take Away One
    • By Thomas Froncek
    • On a quiet Friday afternoon in 1976 Sarah Stefanovic handed over her five-year-old son, Joey, to her estranged husband for one of their regular weekend visits--as dictated by a court order. By the end of that weekend it was clear that Sarah's worst nightmare had become a reality. Joey was gone. Kidnapped by his father. Several times Jovan Stefanovic had threatened to take off with his son for his native Yugoslavia. Now he had made good on that threat. And somehow Sarah had to get her child back. But how? She is a shy, sheltered woman brought up in suburban New Jersey. And Joey is a continent away, deep in an iron curtain country. Take Away One is the story of Sarah's desperate struggle to retrieve her son. And though it often reads like the most dramatic spy fiction, it is all true. A moving testament to a mother's love and determination.
