Sadie Shapiro, Matchmaker-Robert Kimmel Smith: The indomitable Sadie Shapiro sets about finding perfect mates for her three special cases: a classy widow, a Brooklyn fruit and vegetable salesman, and an unkempt young sculptress

The Cradle Will Fall-Mary Higgins Clark: A minor road accident landed county prosecutor Katie DeMaio in Westlake Hospital. That night, from her window, she thought she saw a man load a woman’s body into the trunk of a car...or was it just a sleeping pill induced nightmare? At work the next day, Katie began investigating a suicide that looked more like murder. Initial evidence pointed elsewhere, but medical examiner Richard Carroll saw a trail leading to Dr. Edgar Highley. He suspected that the famous doctor’s work “curing” infertile women was more than controversial—that it was deceitful, depraved, and often deadly.

Man, Woman and Child-Erich Segal: Bob and Sheila Beckwith had everything: rewarding careers, two wonderful daughters, and a perfect marriage . . . almost perfect. For what Sheila didn’t know was that Bob has once been unfaithful—only once, ten years ago during a business trip to France. What Bob didn’t know was that his brief affair produced a son. Now a tragic accident—and one fateful phone call—will change Bob and Sheila’s life forever.

Bess and Harry: An American Love Story-Jhan Robbins: A chronicle of the marriage of Bess and Harry Truman focuses on their enduring personal relationship and on Bess's considerable influence on and support of her husband's political career.

The Wolf and the Buffalo-Elmer Kelton: The Civil War has ended and Gideon Ledbetter is feed from slavery. Like many, he has no land, no money, and no means to make a living. Gideon is drawn into the army by a recruiter who paints an alluring picture of cavalry life out in the west. The Indians called the black men "Buffalo" soldiers, as their tightly twisted hair reminded them of the large animals that they hunted for survival. Gideon is drawn into a conflict with a Comanche warrior, Gray Horse Running, which leads to a shattering confrontation on the plains of west Texas.
