Power Hungry

The Myths of "Green" energy and the real fuels of the future

The promise of "green jobs" and a "clean energy future" has roused the masses. But as Robert Bryce makes clear in this provocative book, that vision needs a major re-vision. We cannot--and will not--quit using carbon-based fuels at any time in the near future for a simple reason: they provide the horsepower that we crave. The hard reality is that oil, coal, and natural gas are here to stay.

Fueling our society requires more than sentiment and rhetoric; we need to make good decisions and smart investments based on facts. In "Power Hungry," Bryce provides a supertanker-load of footnoted facts while shepherding readers through basic physics and math. And with the help of a panoply of vivid graphics and tables, he crushes a phalanx of energy myths, showing why renewables are not green, carbon capture and sequestration won't work, and even--surprise!--that the U.S. is leading the world in energy efficiency. He also charts the amazing growth of the fuels of the future: natural gas and nuclear.

"Power Hungry" delivers a clear-eyed view of what America has "in the tank," and what's needed to transform the gargantuan global energy sector.

From Déjà Dead to Break No Bones, fans just can’t get enough of New York Times bestselling author Kathy Reichs and forensic anthropologist, Temperance Brennan. Now Reichs, a producer of Bones, the hit TV drama inspired by her life and work, returns with her 12th novel featuring Tempe and Lieutenant Ryan. There are 206 bones in the adult human body. Tempe knows every one of them. What she doesn’t know is how she wound up unconscious in a small, dark, cold enclosed space. Bound hands to feet, in pain from an injury to her ankle, she begins, slowly, to remember.… Tempe and Ryan had accompanied the recently discovered remains of a missing heiress from Montreal to the Chicago morgue. Suddenly, Tempe is accused of mishandling the autopsy and the case; someone has made an incriminating phone call. Within hours, the one man with information about the call is dead, and Tempe is left, literally, in the dark. Who wants Tempe dead—or at least out of the way—and why? Seamlessly weaving between the case of the heiress and a new investigation that may or may not be related, Reichs intensifies the chemistry between Tempe and Ryan while delivering one of her tightest, most twisted mysteries yet. $26.99

"The Yard Dog" takes place near the close of World War II, when a large number of Nazi POWs were incarcerated in camps scattered across the prairies of the United States. At Waynoka Divisional Point, near POW Camp Alva, the disillusioned Hook Runyon is assigned by the railroad to run off hobos and arrest pickpockets. Left behind in the war because of the loss of his arm in a car accident, Hook lives in a caboose, collects rare books, and drinks busthead liquor. When a coal picker by the name of Spark Dugan is found run over by a reefer car, Hook and his sidekick, Runt, the local moonshiner, suspect foul play and are drawn into a scheme far greater than either could have imagined. This conspiracy reaches the highest echelons of the camp and beyond and will push Hook and Runt to their physical and mental limits. Hook is a complex character, equal parts rough and vulnerable, an unlikely and unwilling hero. He is more than matched by Dr. Reina Kaplan, a Jewish big-city transplant to Camp Alva who is battling her own demons and has been put in charge of educating the Nazi inmates in the basics of democracy before their eventual return to Germany. Vivid descriptions of period detail, stark landscapes, and unique characters make this first book in the Hook Runyon series a fascinating mystery full of tension and deep insight. $24.99

Years later, Hailey is a tremendously successful criminal prosecutor in Georgia, well-known for never losing a case. No one gets away with murder on her watch. But the years of trials and the endless parade of victims silently looking out at her from crime scene photos and autopsy tables begin to take their toll on her. And then eleven prostitutes are murdered one by one in the back alleys of Atlanta.

A conviction is made-but Hailey knows it will be her last. Still grief-stricken and disillusioned with her profession, Hailey decides to leave Georgia for New York City; she hopes the change of pace and surroundings will finally let her find peace.

Transplanted to a lively, vibrant city where she has no ties and no painful reminders, Hailey embarks on a new career as a therapist. But just when she's beginning to feel settled in her new life, another tidal wave of turmoil engulfs her: Her patients are dying, brutally murdered in the same way as the eleven women in Atlanta. Clearly, Hailey hasn't left her past behind after all-and unless she returns to her true calling and solves the case, still more innocent people will die. Unless the killer gets to her first . . .

THE PRINCIPALS: Paul Wheeler: CEO of the Wheeler Enterprises empire, is shot dead during an armed robbery. Julie Rutledge: A savvy, cultured, and attractive Southern woman, was hand-inhand with Paul Wheeler at the time of his death. Derek Mitchell: A defense lawyer of renown, he goes to the mat to make a case for every client -- and headlines for himself. Creighton Wheeler: The prodigal nephew of Paul and a playboy with a passion for movies. Even those closest to Creighton can't be sure when he exits reality and enters the fantasy world of films.

STORYBOARD: The murder of Paul Wheeler has all the elements of a blockbuster: family rivalries, incalculable wealth, and a prominent man dying in the arms of his beautiful mistress. It's a case that could earn Derek Mitchell even greater star power. When the Wheeler family approaches him about defending Creighton for his uncle's murder -- even before he's charged -- he jumps at the chance.

Although Creighton has a rock-solid alibi, Julie is convinced that he is responsible for Paul's murder. Caught in several lies, and keeping secrets from Derek and the police, Julie is suspected of casting blame on Creighton to cover her own crime. Meanwhile, Derek fears he's being duped...yet he burns with jealousy when he thinks of Julie with her late lover. But the more Derek learns about Creighton, the more he doubts the young man's innocence. And hiding in a squalid motel under an assumed name is the one man, a career criminal, a killer, who knows the truth. The clock ticks down toward a shocking ending that can't be known until the final SMASH CUT.
