John Galsworthy`s magnificent, well-loved Forsyte Saga traces the changing fortunes of the wealthy Forsyte dynasty through fifty years of material triumph and emotional disaster. This first volume begins as the nineteenth century is drawing to a close, and the upper middle classes, with their property and propriety, are becoming a dying section of society. The Forsytes are blind to this fact, clinging to their conventions and "brilliant respectability". As dignified Soames Forsyte struggles to uphold the old moral code in the face of the social revolution resulting from the Great War, his wife Irene`s extraordinary beauty causes even more disruption. The bitter feud between them will come to split the Forsyte family for two generations.

In tough times, even the criminals are making cut-backs, it seems. Right now, the most significant part of defence lawyer Mickey Haller`s business is not about keeping clients out of jail but about keeping a roof over their heads, as the foreclosure industry booms. Lisa Trammel had been a client of Mickey`s for eight months, and although so far he`d managed to stop the bank from taking her house, the strain and sense of injustice are beginning to take their toll, and the bank had recently got a restraining order to prevent her protesting against their fraudulent practices. But now the bank`s CEO has been found with a bullet in his brain, and Lisa is about to be indicted for murder. For Mickey, it`s back to what he does best on the...

A remarkable piece of forgotten history and the never-before-told story of Americans lured to Soviet Russia by the promise of jobs and better lives, only to meet tragic ends. In 1934, a photograph was taken of a baseball team. These two rows of young men look like any group of American ballplayers, except perhaps for the Russian lettering on their jerseys. The players have left their homeland and the Great Depression in search of a better life in Stalinist Russia, but instead they will meet tragic and, until now, forgotten fates. Within four years, most of them will be arrested alongside untold numbers of other Americans. Some will be executed. Others will be sent to corrective labor camps where they will be worked to death. This book is...
