From New York Times bestselling author Sam Kean comes the gripping, untold story of a renegade group of scientists and spies determined to keep Adolf Hitler from obtaining the ultimate prize: a nuclear bomb. Scientists have always kept secrets. But rarely have the secrets been as vital as they were during World War II. In the middle of building an atomic bomb, the leaders of the Manhattan Project were alarmed to learn that Nazi Germany was far outpacing the Allies in nuclear weapons research. Hitler, with just a few pounds of uranium, would have the capability to reverse the entire D-Day operation and conquer Europe. So they assembled a rough and motley crew of geniuses -- dubbed the Alsos Mission -- and sent them careening into Axis territory to spy on, sabotage, and even assassinate members of Nazi Germany's feared Uranium Club. The details of the mission rival the finest spy thriller, but what makes this story sing is the incredible cast of characters -- both heroes and rogues alike -- including: Moe Bergm, the major league catcher who abandoned the game for a career as a multilingual international spy; the strangest fellow to ever play professional baseball. Werner Heisenberg, the Nobel Prize-winning physicist credited as the discoverer of quantum mechanics; a key contributor to the Nazi's atomic bomb project and the primary target of the Alsos mission. Colonel Boris Pash, a high school science teacher and veteran of the Russian Revolution who fled the Soviet Union with a deep disdain for Communists and who later led the Alsos mission. Joe Kennedy Jr., the charismatic, thrill-seeking older brother of JFK whose need for adventure led him to volunteer for the most dangerous missions the Navy had to offer. Samuel Goudsmit, a washed-up physics prodigy who spent his life hunting Nazi scientists -- and his parents, who had been swept into a concentration camp -- across the globe. Irène and Frederic Joliot-Curie, a physics Nobel-Prize winning power couple who used their unassuming status as scientists to become active members of the resistance. Thrust into the dark world of international espionage, these scientists and soldiers played a vital and largely untold role in turning back one of the darkest tides in human history.

Life as a fugitive is never predictable but owning his destiny is the only way for Taj to be free. He’s survived fate’s every whim with his wits and ingenuity. When the law finally catches up, he finds redemption in the same structured control he’s been avoiding for a lifetime. Out of luck, out of time, Taj must determine where fate takes him next, and how many lives he ruins along the way. As deputy to the Arcinian rebel leader, Taj enjoys the freedom he craves, afforded the ability to help as many commoners as he can with his limited resources. His generosity and selflessness has earned him the loyalty of his many friends. But no amount of charity can absolve his guilt over his numerous failures or the pain he’s inflicted. No atonement can heal his broken family. One day fate will come to collect and Taj already knows he’ll pay with his independence. Vaan’s life is ordered, scheduled, pristine. He takes great pride in his position of authority and discipline as a knight in the Royal Guard, following every order and representing his leaders with impeccable decorum. His prince’s word is irrefutable law. It’s when that word puts Vaan in direct defiance of the law that his carefully structured life is turned on its head. Without a clear set of rules to guide him, he’ll need to follow instinct instead and hope he can continue to hide the one mistake that can ruin him. Rebel and knight. Outlaw and executioner. Diametrically destined to oppose. If they can see past their fundamental differences and learn to work together, then perhaps they can stop the destructive greed and ambition threatening to plunge the Sehaannian capital into chaos. As a team, they could change life for the lower class forever. But lies and secrets tend to rip alliances apart, and the ones building between Taj and Vaan might be too difficult for them to overcome.

In this inspiring biography, discover the true story of Harriet the Spy author Louise Fitzhugh -- and learn about the woman behind one of literature's most beloved heroines. Harriet the Spy, first published in 1964, has mesmerized generations of readers and launched a million diarists. Its beloved antiheroine, Harriet, is erratic, unsentimental, and endearing -- very much like the woman who created her, Louise Fitzhugh. Born in 1928, Fitzhugh was raised in segregated Memphis, but she soon escaped her cloistered world and headed for New York, where her expanded milieu stretched from the lesbian bars of Greenwich Village to the art world of postwar Europe, and her circle of friends included members of the avant-garde like Maurice Sendak and Lorraine Hansberry. Fitzhugh's novels, written in an era of political defiance, are full of resistance: to authority, to conformity, and even -- radically, for a children's author -- to make-believe. As a children's author and a lesbian, Fitzhugh was often pressured to disguise her true nature. Sometimes You Have to Lie tells the story of her hidden life and of the creation of her masterpiece, which remains long after her death as a testament to the complicated relationship between truth, secrecy, and individualism.
Soon to be an Apple TV+ animated series starring Golden Globe nominee Beanie Feldstein and Emmy Award winner Jane Lynch, it's no secret that Harriet the Spy is a timeless classic that kids will love!

Then Harriet loses track of her notebook, and it ends up in the wrong hands. Before she can stop them, her friends have read the always truthful, sometimes awful things she’s written about each of them. Will Harriet find a way to put her life and her friendships back together? "What the novel showed me as a child is that words have the power to hurt, but they can also heal, and that it’s much better in the long run to use this power for good than for evil."—New York Times bestselling author Meg Cabot
On November 12, 1995 the CIA issued a report admitting that military and intelligence services had used psychics for spying or "remote viewing".

With his marriage ruined in the aftermath of his psychic spying, he wanders the Southwest, occasionally guiding river rafting tours. And then suddenly his painful past returns and threatens to damage him again. He finds out that he had been drugged during his remote viewing sessions and that the drug, now years later, is causing ever increasing side-effects in himself and the other government psychic spies he worked with - and that their psychic abilities are still expanding at frightening rates. He realizes that the unknown drug he and the other psychic spies unwillingly took has bound them all together in a deadly psychic nexus, a "PSI net", that has trapped Callaway, who must now fight for his life and his sanity as he struggles for the security of the United States and its people.

Finding answers to these questions becomes the top secret mission for CIA agent Steve Wickham. Without those answers, only one solution will remain: invasion. And then World War III will certainly follow. Can Wickham find the bomber before the president is forced to invade? Or will the world as we know it ignite into a nuclear conflagration?
