One moment June Nealon was happily looking forward to years full of
laughter and adventure with her family, and the next, she was staring into
a future that was as empty as her heart. Now her life is a waiting game.
Waiting for time to heal her wounds, waiting for justice. In short,
waiting for a miracle to happen. For Shay Bourne, life holds no more
surprises. The world has given him nothing, and he has nothing to offer
the world. In a heartbeat, though, something happens that changes
everything for him. Now, he has one last chance for salvation, and it lies
with June's eleven-year-old daughter, Claire. But between Shay and Claire
stretches an ocean of bitter regrets, past crimes, and the rage of a
mother who has lost her child.--From publisher description.

Founding
faith : providence, politics, and the birth of religious freedom in
America
Waldman, Steven.
New York : Random House, c2008.
The culture wars have distorted the dramatic story of how Americans came
to worship freely. Author Waldman, cofounder of Beliefnet.com, argues that
the United States was not founded as a "Christian nation," nor
were the Founding Fathers uniformly secular or Deist. Rather, the Founders
forged a new approach to religious liberty, a revolutionary formula that
promoted faith--by leaving it alone. His narrative begins with early
settlers' stunningly unsuccessful efforts to create a Christian paradise,
and concludes with the presidencies of Washington, Adams, Jefferson, and
Madison, during which the men who had devised lofty principles regarding
the proper relationship between church and state struggled to practice
what they'd preached.--From publisher description.

Superclass
: the global power elite and the world they are making
Rothkopf, David J. (David Jochanan), 1955-
New York : Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2008.
They number six thousand on a planet of six billion. They run our
governments, our largest corporations, the powerhouses of international
finance, the media, world religions, and, from the shadows, the world's
most dangerous criminal and terrorist organizations. They are the global
superclass, and they are shaping the history of our time. Today's
superclass has achieved unprecedented levels of wealth and power. They
have globalized more rapidly than any other group. But do they have more
in common with one another than with their own countrymen, as nationalist
critics have argued? Has their influence fed the growing economic and
social inequity that divides the world? Who sets the rules for a group
that operates beyond national laws? Drawn from exclusive interviews and
extensive original reporting, this book draws back the curtain on a
privileged society that most of us know little about, even though it
profoundly affects our lives.--From publisher description.

Never
let me go
Ishiguro, Kazuo, 1954-
New York, N.Y. : Random House Audio, p2005.
From the Booker Prize-winning author of The Remains of the Day and When We
Were Orphans, comes an unforgettable edge-of-your-seat mystery that is at
once heartbreakingly tender and morally courageous about what it means to
be human. Hailsham seems like a pleasant English boarding school, far from
the influences of the city. Its students are well tended and supported,
trained in art and literature, and become just the sort of people the
world wants them to be. But, curiously, they are taught nothing of the
outside world and are allowed little contact with it. Within the grounds
of Hailsham, Kathy grows from schoolgirl to young woman, but it's only
when she and her friends Ruth and Tommy leave the safe grounds of the
school (as they always knew they would) that they realize the full truth
of what Hailsham is.
