Mario Puzo's The Godfather: The Lost Year
'The bloody victory of the Corleone Family was not complete,' begins the
final chapter of Mario Puzo's The Godfather, 'until a year of delicate
manoeuvring established Michael Corleone as the most powerful Family
chief in the United States.' The Godfather: The Lost Years takes place
in the years 1955-65, but it is built upon the story of that 'year of
delicate political manoeuvring' - and how, in winning the battle of that
year, Michael Corleone set the stage to lose the war: the war to make
the Family legitimate, the war to keep the Corleones supremely in power,
the war to stay true to his father's wishes, the war to give not just
his Family but his family a safe and happy life.
The Godfather: The Lost
Years is not just a sequel. A magnificent novel in its own right, by an
acclaimed young American novelist, it traces the nexus of ambitious,
audacious decisions that Michael Corleone implements, their ultimate
failure, and, after the Family's literal and figurative years in the
wilderness (of Las Vegas), Michael's literal, physical return to New
York, and his attempts to regain control there.

The killing ground by jack higgins
For intelligence operative Sean Dillon, it begins with a routine passport check. But the events it will lead to will be as bloody as any he has ever known. The man he stops at Heathrow Airport is Caspar Rashid, born and bred in England but with family ties to a Bedouin tribe fiercely wedded to the old ways, as Rashid has just found out to his pain. His thirteen-year-old daughter, Sara, has been kidnapped by Rashid's own father and taken to Iraq to be married to a man known as the Hammer of God, one of the Middle East's most feared terrorists.
Dillon has had his own run-ins with that clan, and when the distraught man begs Dillon for help, he sees a chance to settle some old scores-but he has no idea of the terrible chain of events he is about to unleash, nor of the implacable enemies he is about to gain. Before his journey is done, many men will die-and Dillon may be one of them. Filled with dark suspense, driven by characters of complexity and passion
The word’s most effective anti-terrorist force has the tools to monitor every move the enemy makes. They’ve planted a listening device inside a terrorist’s skull, and activated a video spy drone disguised as a bird. But knowing is only half the battle…
Sam Carver's been beaten, tortured and left to die. He wakes up in a Swiss sanatorium to discover that the woman he loves has vanished.
