The Dragon's Orb by J.T. Twerell - In the 1970’s, France developed a nuclear missile program called the TN-90. In 1996, President Mitterand slashed the program and placed the remaining warheads in storage. Unfortunately, five of the missiles were recently “lost” and somehow North Korea “found” them. Dawn Laskey, a thirty-two year old fashion designer from New York, decides to take a vacation break to Paris where she becomes involved with Anthony Marconi, a romantic and fun–loving resident of Paris. On the last night of her vacation, she witnesses a murder and is forced to run for her life. Unknown to her, Anthony is an arms dealer with ties to North Korea and is in the midst of the theft of the TN-90 missiles. The murder she witnesses is part of Anthony’s dealings with the North Korean underground known as the Munmu Warriors, who report directly to Kim Jong-Un, Supreme Leader of North Korea. Anthony is killed during their attempt to flee from the North Korean assassins. While Dawn escapes, the Munmu Warriors believe she is involved with Anthony and has vital information they need to complete the arming of the stolen TN-90 missiles. Fleeing to America, Dawn is now hunted by North Korea with the plan to torture her for the information. In addition, high levels of the French police discover her connection to Anthony and now want to question her. In New York, she comes under the protection of thirty-eight years old Detective Gerald Denton who tries to grasp her innocence while the international incident escalates. The story is filled with twist and turns leaving the reader riveted as Dawn tries to stay alive while very dark forces hunt her down and ultimately capture and torture her.

Nothing Like A Dame: Conversations with the Great Women of Musical Theater by Eddie Shapiro - In Nothing Like a Dame, theater journalist Eddie Shapiro opens a
jewelry box full of glittering surprises, through in-depth
conversations with twenty leading women of Broadway. He carefully
selected Tony Award-winning stars who have spent the majority of their
careers in theater, leaving aside those who have moved on or
occasionally drop back in. The women he interviewed spent endless hours
with him, discussing their careers, offering insights into the iconic
shows, changes on Broadway over the last century, and the art (and
thrill) of taking the stage night after night. Chita Rivera describes
the experience of starring in musicals in each of the last seven
decades; Audra McDonald gives her thoughts on the work that went into
the five Tony Awards she won before turning forty-one; and Carol
Channing reflects on how she has revisited the same starring role
generation after generation, and its effects on her career. Here too is
Sutton Foster, who contemplates her breakout success in an age when
stars working predominately in theater are increasingly rare. Each of
these conversations is guided by Shapiro's expert knowledge of these
women's careers, Broadway lore, and the details of famous (and infamous)
musicals. He also includes dozens of photographs of these players in
their best-known roles.
