    From the author of Skippy Dies comes Paul Murray’s The Bee Sting, an irresistibly funny, wise, and thought-provoking tour de force about family, fortune, and the struggle to be a good person when the world is falling apart.

    The Barnes family is in trouble. Dickie’s once-lucrative car business is going under—but he’s spending his days in the woods, building an apocalypse-proof bunker with a renegade handyman. His wife, Imelda, is selling off her jewelry on eBay and half-heartedly dodging the attention of fast-talking cattle farmer Big Mike, while their teenage daughter, Cass, formerly top of her class, seems determined to binge drink her way through her final exams. As for twelve-year-old PJ, he’s on the brink of running away.

    If you wanted to change this story, how far back would you have to go? To the infamous bee sting that ruined Imelda’s wedding day? To the car crash one year before Cass was born? All the way back to Dickie at ten years old, standing in the summer garden with his father, learning how to be a real man?

    A portrait of postcrash Ireland, a tragicomic family saga, and a dazzling story about the struggle to be good at the end of the world.

    The Drafter (The Peri Reed Chronicles Book 1)The Drafter (The Peri Reed Chronicles Book 1) by Kim Harrison

    Over 1,000 5-Star Reviews!

    The Bourne Identity meets Minority Report in this “truly wild ride” (RT Book Reviews) set in a futuristic Detroit—the first in #1 New York Times bestselling author Kim Harrison’s Peri Reed Chronicles.

    Peri Reed is a Drafter—a special ops agent able to jump back forty seconds in time when missions go wrong. But that skill also lets her partner, the one who erases her short-term memory, plant false memories and set her up as a corrupt operative.

    Working with Silas, a broody psychologist determined to expose Opti’s corruption, Peri begins piecing her twisted reality together as she flees the very agency she once trusted.

    But rebuilding the memory of the night she killed her partner risks her sanity, and trying to take down Opti only brings her closer to those who want her dead. Can she get her revenge, or will her tenuous grip on reality leave her vulnerable all over again?
