Miya, a proud and arrogant member of an asexual race, is overcome by her submissive and sexual reaction to a stranger. He takes her to his planet where she finds herself at his whim and mercy both mentally and physically. He eventually comes to control not only her body but her heart.<

Late-night radio-show psychologist Rain Sommers is used to the crazies who call in to rage from the back alleys of the French Quarter and the shadows of the bayou. But one caller's chilling obsession with her and her long-ago murdered mother—an iconic singer beloved among the city's Goth community—has even the jaded Rain running scared as a sadistic serial killer known as the Vampire prowls New Orleans.

FBI agent Trevor Rivette is convinced her midnight caller and the killer are one and the same. As it becomes disturbingly clear that the Vampire has a sick bloodlust only Rain can satisfy, she allows Trevor to get closer and closer. But he soon discovers that his secretive past and troubled present are intertwined—and that he may die trying to keep Rain's fate out of a madman's control.<

Product Description

JT is a top model for book covers. Burned once already in love, however, he wants nothing to do with another cover model. None can be trusted, until he meets a brown skinned beauty who's shy about posing in the nude--a novelty in his world, and as genuine as she seems. How could he not fall in love with her?

Tina is a top fashion model, accustomed to strutting her stuff on the runways of the world, but usually all the interesting parts of her body are appropriately covered. When her twin sister, a famous model, has a severe allergic reaction, she fills in on a book cover shoot. Little did she realize she'd been shot in the nude with the sexiest man alive, and he'd want her in ways she never dared to imagine.

The bestselling author of SALMON FISHING IN THE YEMEN returns with a Buchan-esque thriller. “Tell you what, Leader, do you want to double your money?” “Double or quits?” “Of course double or quits. I’m having lunch at the Randolph Hotel in Oxford tomorrow with my uncle. If you can join us by one o’clock sharp tomorrow, I’ll tear up this cheque and write you another for six thousand pounds” It is a bet Richard Gaunt cannot resist - all he has to do is walk from London to Oxford in under twelve hours.

But what starts as a harmless bet turns into something altogether different when Richard is taken hostage by a mysterious stranger, Mr Khan, who makes him a highly unusual proposal. What he offers in return could transform Richard’s life. Traumatised by a tour of duty in Iraq, Richard feels he has nothing to lose. The love of his life won’t speak to him, he has lost every job he ever had and his friends have vanished. He therefore decides to accept Khan’s strange request - never imagining the places it will take him.<

Tryon ( The Other ) sends Leo Joaquim, his orphaned 13-year-old hero, to Camp Friend-Indeed in Connecticut in the summer of 1938, and does his best to show that the behavior of the kids at this American-as-apple-pie camp parallels that of the Nazi movement in Germany. Gifted, troubled and therefore "different," Leo arouses the animosity of his gung-ho and intolerant counselor Reece Hartsig. Leo also makes some friends in his bunk group and gets the sympathetic attention of Fritz Auerbach, an Austrian refugee who is head of Arts & Crafts, as well as of warmhearted women like the camp director's wife and a rich neighbor of the camp. But in the main Leo meets with incomprehension and adolescent meanness. The story is an intimate, detailed one of camp life and its vicissitudes until the political parallels become overt, the human storm breaks and tragedy takes over. If this sounds interesting, it is not. It is good-hearted, prosy, plodding and terribly familiar. 75,000 first printing; Literary Guild dual main selection.

Although the publishers apparently intend to aim this novel at the horror market, the only horror it contains is people's inhumanity to one another--or in this case, boys' inhumanity to the oddball. Leo Joaquim, living at an orphanage, is given the miracle of a summer at Camp Friend Indeed. From the first, though, he doesn't fit in. Clumsy at sports, preferring to play the violin and collect nature specimens, he soon becomes the object of the other campers scorn; and gradually the healthy competitiveness encouraged by Friend Indeed degenerates into an endurance test between Leo and Reece Hartzig, the camp's spoiled golden-boy counselor. Leo's mind holds a tragic secret, and as the campers' pranks become more vicious and sadistic, his memories threaten to erupt in uncontrollable violence. This Literary Guild dual main selection, by the author of The Other and Harvest Home , will be in demand at public libraries.

From Publishers Weekly

While somewhat derivative of Hitchcock, Tremblay's second novel featuring South Boston PI Mark Genevich improves enough on the first, The Little Sleep (2009), to suggest that the unusual hero—a narcoleptic sleuth subject to unpredictable blackouts—can sustain a series. Genevich is scraping the bottom of the barrel after one of his frequent screwups leads to his following the wrong woman on what should have been a straightforward investigation of marital infidelity, a goof that leads his client, an investment company CEO, to consider suing him. Genevich gets another opportunity from a fellow member of the group therapy sessions his mother forces him to attend, who asks him to protect a female bartender from a stalker. That assignment winds up placing Genevich on the police radar as an arson suspect. The plot twists satisfy more than surprise, but the clever writing will keep readers turning the pages. (Feb.)

Review

"No Sleep till Wonderland delivers on the tremendous promise of The Little Sleep, simultaneously paying homage to classic noir fiction while creating a damaged and irrevocably lost anti-hero in PI Mark Genevich, who is always on the verge of emotional and physical collapse. This is a novel filled with black humor but an even blacker subtext that makes the reader question the nature of reality and self; heady stuff for a crime novel, for sure, but Paul Tremblay is a fearless writer and No Sleep till Wonderland is positively magnetic fiction."--Tod Goldberg, author of Other Resort Cities and Simplify

"Snappy prose, a brilliantly original detective and a cast of sharply drawn low lifes—Paul Tremblay mixes it up with style. In the end, No Sleep till Wonderland is much more than just a crime book—it’s all about the narrator's unique take on the world. Thoroughly recommended."--Simon Lewis, author of Bad Traffic

"Paul Tremblay somehow manages to channel Franz Kafka, write like Raymond Chandler, and whip up a completely original, utterly whack-a-doodle reinvention of the detective novel. This book rocks."--Mark Haskell Smith, author of Salty

"Like The Little Sleep, this one plays it straight. There's no gimmickry with Genevich's narcolepsy, and there's no condescension with his character, and like TLS, the writing sings with all these wonderful weird free associations. As much as I liked TLS, I liked this one even more. Tremblay's voice is one of the most original in hardboiled PI fiction, and he has definitely breathed new life into the genre. This is great stuff, and I can't recommend it strongly enough. Nobody right now is writing more original or better PI novels than Tremblay."--Dave Zeltserman, author of Pariah
