Four Blondes charts the romantic intrigues, liaisons, betrayals and victories of four modern women: a beautiful B-list model scams rent-free summerhouses in the Hamptons from her lovers until she discovers she can get a man but can't get what she wants; a high-powered magazine columnist's floundering marriage to a literary journalist is thrown into crisis when her husband's career fails to live up to her expectations: a 'Cinderella' records her descent into paranoia into her journal as she realises she wants anybody's life except her own; an artist and ageing 'It girl' - who fears that her time for finding a man has run out - travels to London in search of the kind of love and devotion she can't find in Manhattan...
Studded with Candace Bushnell's trademark wit and stiletto-heel-sharp insight, Four Blondes is dark, true, and complusively readable.

6) Commencing Our Descent (good condition)
By Suzanna Dunn
SBD$5

"The heroine of Commencing Our Descent is Sadie, comfortably married to amiable, dependable Philip, and with the crippling feeling that life is just not happening. Then she meets Edwin, a reserved, unsmiling historian and falls painfully in love... Dunn powerfully evokes the abyss opening up in the midst of the most mundane and surface contented surroundings. She is a remarkable writer, a lyricist of ordinary life and ordinary people transfigured by extreme emotions."
- Christopher Hart, Daily Telegraph

7) Last Orders (almost perfect condition)
By Graham Swift
SGD$8

Blurb (as written at the back of book)

Four men - friends, most of them, for half a lifetime - gather in a London pub. They have taken it upon themselves to carry out the last orders of Jack Dodds, master butcher, and deliver his ashes to the sea. As they drive towards the fulfilment of their mission, their errand becomes an extraordinary journey into their collective and individual pasts.
Braiding these men's voices - and that of Jack's mysteriously absent widow - into a choir of secret sorrow and resentment, passion and regret, Graham Swift creates a testament to a changing England and to enduring mortality. Honest, moving, yet richly comic, faithful both to the passing rhythms of daily speech and to the abiding truths of life and death, Last Orders is a triumph.

By Harry Turtledove
SGD$4

RESERVED!

Blurb (as written at the back of book)

It is 1917, and the United States are fighting a war on two fronts. In the north, from the Pacific to Quebec, US forces in the air and on land are locked in battle against Canada and Great Britain. To the south, at the heart of a line that stretches from the Gulf of California to the Atlantic, General Custer intends to do what none of his predecessors have done - to smash through the Confederate lines in Tennessee.

Into this vast, seething cauldron plunges a new generation of weapons - submarines, barrels, attack planes, poison gas and flame throwers - changing the shape of war and the balance of power. Victory is at hand - but at a price that may be worse than war itself.

4) Who Really Won The Space Race? (very good condition)

By Thom Burnett

SGD$8

Blurb (as written at the back of book)

On October 4 1957, America's self belief that it was the most technologically advanced nation on earth was shattered by the successful launch of a Soviet satellite.

When asked why the Russians had beaten the United States into space, President Eisenhower attributed it all to the fact that in 1945, the Soviets had captured all the German rocket scientists.

As this book will show, that presidential statement was far from true. In fact America could have put a satellite into space a year before Sputnik, but the team of former Nazi scientists working for the Americans had been deliberately denied the opportunity.

This book reveals the reason behind this decision and exposes a conspiracy at the heart of the US satellite program. It also puts into question what might have happened to the political career of John F Kennedy if he hadn't won the 1960 Presidential election - his victory having been won by his promise to close the space race and missile gap on the Soviets.

7) Victory: Call to Arms (less than perfect cover)

By Stephen Coonts, David Hagberg and Barrett Tillman

SGD$5

RESERVED!

Blurb (as written at the back of book)

Stephen Coonts asks what happens when you load a Catalina flying boat with five tons of bombs, a half dozen machine guns, and a crew that walks a line between valor and suicide. In the Pacific Theater of war, the Japanese Navy is about to discover the answer to that very question.

David Hagberg sends the OSS and M16 behind enemy lines in Germany to stop the one weapon that can win the war of Hitler and Nazi Germany: an electromechanical guidance system that can launch missiles not only across countries, but across the ocean and hit the United States.

Barrett Tillman brings us into a gruesome fight as a Marine Corps flamethrower unit fights Japanese defenders of Tarawa Atoll in November 1943.

Only one doctor may be able to cure it surgically but at a terrible cost, one that Snow reveals to no one: he will have no memory whatsoever of his past and will be abandoning everyone he has ever known. But the night before he is scheduled to undergo the operation, Snow is found near the Massachusetts General Hospital, dead of a gunshot wound. Did he commit suicide as the police suspect, or was he murdered.
