Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Millions of people remember it the same way: Nelson Mandela died in prison in the 1980s. The Berenstain Bears were always spelled "Berenstein." The Monopoly Man wore a monocle. C-3PO had a silver leg.They're wrong - or are they?Mandela's Ghost takes the phenomenon known as the Mandela Effect and asks the question mainstream science won't: what if these aren't glitches in memory, but scars left behind by a changed timeline? Moving case by case through some of the most famous shared false memories in modern culture - from movie misquotes and cereal box logos to the Sphinx's missing nose - this book builds a playful but unsettling case that someone, somewhere, has already rewritten history, and we're the only ones who remember how it used to go.Alongside each case file, Mandela's Ghost also gives you the real explanation neuroscience offers for these collective misremembrances - confabulation, false memory formation, the Mandela Effect's roots in genuine cognitive science. You'll walk away with both the fun theory and the facts, and get to decide for yourself which one keeps you up at night.Equal parts pop-science curiosity and speculative fiction thought experiment, this is a book for anyone who's ever second-guessed a memory they were absolutely sure about.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. When six-year-old Emily Hartwell is too afraid of the dark to sleep, her mother offers a simple comfort: everyone has a guardian angel, and all you have to do is ask. Emily names hers Michael, after the archangel in her church's stained glass window, and for the first time, the shapes at the edge of her vision go still.The comfort follows her into a childhood marked by cruelty. Emily is shy, an easy target, and when a boy at school makes her life unbearable, she does the only thing that has ever made her feel safe: she asks Michael for help. The next day, he isn't at school. He never bothers her again.It happens again. And again. Every classmate who mocks her, every teacher who humiliates her, every rival who makes her small - each one meets an accident, an illness, a tragedy too precise to be coincidence. Emily tells herself it's protection. She tells herself it's justice. She keeps asking.But by the time she reaches high school, the pattern has outgrown her control. People who were never cruel to her start paying the price simply for being near her. A face appears in the mirror one night - beautiful, symmetrical, and utterly wrong - and Emily begins to understand that what she invited into her life as a frightened child was never an angel at all.With the help of a therapist who refuses to dismiss what she's seen and a priest willing to name the thing she's too afraid to name herself, Emily fights to break free from an entity that has spent a decade convincing her it was the only one who ever truly protected her. The battle costs her friendships, her sense of self, and, for one unbearable night, her innocence - before she finally confronts it directly and walks away believing she has won.Years later, married with two children of her own, Emily has built the ordinary, peaceful life she once thought impossible. Then her seven-year-old daughter mentions a new friend who visits her at night. A friend who says his name is Michael.My Guardian Angel is a haunting novel about the terrible cost of being believed, the fragile line between protection and possession, and how far a mother's love will go to keep her children from inheriting a war she thought she'd already won.

Vincent Delrose, a bookmaker who has built hiscareer reading odds and patterns, starts pulling threads on Nathan's uncanny winningstreak, and what he uncovers convinces him he isn't looking at skill or chance at all, butsomething else entirely - something worth taking by force.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. In 1696, the pirate Henry Every sailed into Nassau harbor with the richest treasure haul in history - and vanished without a trace, along with his flagship, the Fancy. For over three hundred years, the ship's fate remained one of the great unsolved mysteries of the sea.When Jack Malone clears out his late grandfather's storage unit, he finds more than old dive gear and faded photographs. Hidden in a battered trunk is thirty years of obsessive, secret research - hand-drawn charts, archival records, and a chilling final note: the old man had narrowed the search to three possible sites, and never got the chance to dive the one that mattered most.Jack recruits two friends to help him finish what his grandfather started: Tom Reyes, a historian who can separate real evidence from wishful thinking, and Danny Shaw, a boat captain with nothing left to lose. What begins as a quiet, six-day survey turns into the discovery of a lifetime - a debris field, a corroded ship's bell, and proof that the Fancy has been waiting in the sand all along.But finding her is only the beginning. Bahamian law demands permits before a single coin can be legally raised, and word of a find this size never stays buried for long. Ray Kessler, a rival salvor who has chased this same ship for twenty years, isn't willing to watch three newcomers succeed where he failed - and as the evidence mounts and the treasure grows too large to hide, his patience runs out entirely.Between the three men lies a race against bureaucracy, a determined competitor, and the sea itself - silt-outs in collapsing hull sections, a squall that nearly ends the search for good, and a night intruder who will risk everything rather than let the Fancy slip away a second time. The deeper they dig, the more the wreck reveals: not just gold, but the ordinary men who sailed her, hid her, and were lost along with her.The Fate of the Fancy is a novel about the cost of obsession and the debts one generation leaves for the next - a story of patient, dangerous work done right, of a secret kept just long enough to matter, and of three men who finally bring history up out of the dark where it had been waiting three hundred years to be found.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Raymond Anderson was born knowing things he had no way of knowing.By two, he was reading his father's construction manuals and catching errors that had gone unnoticed for decades. By four, he'd found deductions on the family's taxes that tripled their refund. By seven, he'd graduated high school. By thirteen, he held a doctorate that four senior professors couldn't fully follow.But genius comes with a price. As Raymond's gifts escalate beyond anything the world has a name for - a healer's touch that can undo illness with a single hand, a mind that can bend light and stop bullets, inventions that render soldiers invisible and warships unsinkable - the government he's tried to help starts treating him less like a son and more like a strategic asset. And America isn't the only country watching.When a foreign coalition known only as KESTREL decides that if they cannot have Raymond, no one will, they move to take him by force. What follows is a desperate three-day captivity, a secret power Raymond has kept hidden even from his protectors, and a Navy SEAL and Marine rescue operation with a razor-thin window to bring him home before he breaks.He survives. He gives up nothing. But something in him has changed - and the only place left where his mind will not be the most valuable, most hunted thing in the room is somewhere no government can follow: past the edge of the solar system, past everything humanity has ever charted, on a light-speed ship of his own design.Born a Genius is the story of a boy who was never allowed to be ordinary, the family who fought to protect him anyway, and the journey that finally lets him belong to no one but himself. Equal parts family drama and technothriller, it asks what we owe the people we call brilliant - and what they are allowed, at last, to want for themselves.M.J. Cross delivers a suspenseful, emotionally grounded novel about genius, sacrifice, and the cost of being needed by everyone except yourself. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Dr. Walter Hargrove lost his medical license eleven years ago for trying to save a boy the rules said couldn't be saved.

Dale. Connie. Toby. Grace. Earl. Five people the world already stopped looking for, lured off the street with the promise of a bed and a hot meal.His experiments work.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Every era gets the quackery it deserves - and the cure it swears will finally fix everything.Merciless Remedies is a history of the drugs, devices, and doctor-approved miracles that promised health and delivered something else entirely: a cowboy's rattlesnake liniment with no snake in it, a radium tonic that dissolved a millionaire's jaw, a president bled to death by his own trusted physicians, a Nobel Prize winner's research twisted into a marketing slogan he spent his career arguing against.Some of these remedies were cons from the first bottle. Others came from sincere, credentialed doctors following the best theory their era had - bloodletting, mercury, lobotomy - right up until the evidence caught up with them, decades and thousands of bodies too late. This book tells both kinds of story, and shows exactly how each one can be told apart: who left a paper trail defending the idea, who treated their own family differently than their customers, and what it actually took - not a change of heart, but a body count and an act of Congress - to build a system that could catch the next one before it started.From the traveling medicine show to the shoe-fitting X-ray machine, from a lobotomy performed while the patient recited the Lord's Prayer to a Silicon Valley blood-testing company that never quite finished inventing what it had already sold, Merciless Remedies traces two centuries of the same basic con wearing different paint - and asks why, packaging aside, it still works today.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. OVERBOARD: A Story of Betrayal and Survivalby M.J. JohansenMike Reyes has known Ted Gallagher since they were nine years old - through funerals, first cars, and every hard year in between. So when Ted leads him to a quiet, off-limits deck on the last night of their cruise to point out dolphins in the dark water, Mike doesn't think twice about leaning over the rail.He doesn't see the two hands that push him.The ship doesn't stop. Nobody hears him scream. And somewhere behind him, his best friend walks back into the light to tell the woman they both love that Mike wandered off on his own - the first lie in a story Ted will spend the next five weeks perfecting.What follows is a fight for survival on two fronts. Adrift and then marooned on an uncharted island, Mike has to relearn everything about staying alive - fire, water, shelter - with nothing but his hands and, eventually, a decades-old relic pulled from the wreckage of a WWII fighter plane he finds buried in the jungle. Back aboard the ship, Kathy Voss grieves the man she loves in the arms of the man who took him from her, all while quietly building a case Ted never sees coming.Overboard is a story about the people we trust completely and the ones who prove we shouldn't - about what it costs to survive an ocean, and what it costs to survive a lie. As Mike claws his way back from the edge of everything, and Kathy closes in on the truth one careful thread at a time, the two halves of this story are racing toward the same unavoidable reckoning: a confrontation neither Ted, nor the reader, will see the full shape of until it's standing right in front of them.A gripping, propulsive novel of friendship, obsession, and the long reach of the truth - for readers who loved the slow-burn tension of a survival thriller and the simmering betrayal of a psychological drama in equal measure.
