It is the 1970's and Manjula Padmanabhan is in her mid-twenties, trying to find her way in the world. Life in Bombay is proving tricky: there are the visits to Dr. Prasad's diet clinic and his photographs of gloomy nudes, lunch at her brother's house where the dog is eating all the snacks, and there are the intriguing Dutch visitors. Padmanabhan's brilliantly funny memoir will touch anyone who has ever wondered where and when they might begin to fit in.

Max's latest quarry, Dr. Irene Cogan, is about to learn two things firsthand: what makes Max tick, and what happened to
THE GIRLS HE ADORED
Jonathan Nasaw brilliantly portrays three equally intense characters--deviant killer, the expert psychiatrist he abducts, and the charmingly disheveled veteran FBI agent on their trail--in this sexually charged thriller of extraordinary originality and page-turning suspense.

-The Toronto Sun
"Compelling and intellectually stimulating, Nasaw's novel draws a complex portrait of the multiple-personality serial killer...not easy to put down or forget."
