David Cesarani
Eichmann: His Life, Crimes and Legacy
Published September 2003 by Heinemann at £17.99
ISBN: 0434010561
Many historians have told the story of the Holocaust, but somehow the character of the man who was its architect has slipped through the gaps - there has been no book devoted to him since he died, after the trial - in Israel - that more than any other event brought the Holocaust to the attention of a world that had been trying to forget it had ever happened Professor Cesarani's book will tell Eichmann's story and through it the story of the Final Solution, incorporating the latest scholarship on the origins and implementation of the Nazi genocide.

Puzo,Mario Puzo
The Family
Published July 2003 by Heinemann at £18.99
ISBN: 0434011983
The Family brings the lawless world of 15th-century Rome to vivid life, revealing the secrets of the Vatican just as Mario Puzo once laid bare the mysteries of the Mafia. This extraordinary epic revolves around Rodrigo Borgia, Pope Alexander VI, a larger than life figure propelled by a myriad of passions - power, faith, luxury, women, and an all-powerful love of family. As Alexander strives to restore glory to the Catholic Church and unify the city-states of Italy, he also seeks to direct the lives of his beloved but corrupted children. But for all Alexander's love and might, he cannot reverse the legacy of sin that is revisited upon his family.
Readers are transported back to 15th-century Rome to witness the extravagance and intrigue of the Vatican in the hands of the Borgias. Their intermingled stories constitute a symphony of human emotion and behaviour, from pride to romance, to jealousy, betrayal and murderous rage.

Published July 2003 by Heinemann at £16.99
ISBN: 0434010367
From the number one bestselling author, world-class crime
writing at its finest...
Its a summer of record-breaking heat in Charlotte. Tempe
Brennan is looking forward to her first vacation in years, and she's
almost out the door when the bones start appearing.
First there's the little skeleton of a newborn found in a wood
stove. Did the baby's young mother put her there? The mother,
hardly more than a child herself, has disappeared.
Next, a Cessna flies into a rock face on a sunny afternoon. Both
pilot and passenger are burned beyond recognition, their bodies
covered with a strange black substance. What could it be? There's
evidence that they may have had criminal purposes for the flight.
Most puzzling, though, is a cache of bones found in a remote corner
ofthe county. Some animal, some human, the bones are enough
to keep Tempe busy for a long time to come. Everything leads
back to an isolated farm. Tempe must discover what happened
there - and who will be the next victim...
Kathy Reichs serves as forensic anthropologist for the Offices of

Praise for Kathy Reichs:
'The forensic detail is harrowing, the pace relentless and the
prose assured. Kathy Reichs just gets better and better and is
now the Alpha female of this genre' Irish Independent
