From the New York Times bestselling author of The Fourth Procedure comes a riveting thriller about a deadly virus, born of the past, that threatens to destroy the present. The Last Nazi seamlessly weaves genetics, terrorism, and the very human struggle of right and wrong into a terrifying and unforgettable story. Melissa Gale is an attractive, ambitious lawyer and investigator for the Office of Special Investigations, the Justice Department’s “Nazi Hunters.” Her quarry, known only by the name “Adalwolf,” was the brilliant young protégé of Dr. Josef Mengele, the Butcher of Auschwitz. Presumed dead for almost fifty years, Adalwolf has suddenly reappeared in the United States to take the lives of three people in a chilling, unusual way. Melissa stalks Adalwolf to bring him to justice, only to discover that he is actually stalking her. She has something he wants: a personal medical history that holds the key to his plan for the ultimate crime. Using a deadly biological virus born of the genetic projects started in the Nazi labs, Adalwolf is about to unleash the ultimate weapon of mass destruction. Melissa Gale and the baby she is carrying could be the key to his success. Trapped in his nightmare scheme, she is forced to fight for her life. The tension builds unbearably as Melissa’s race to save her baby and stop Adalwolf from carrying out his plan forces her to confront the boundaries of good and evil---not only in him, but in herself.
Office of Special Investigations lawyer Melissa Gale works to track down Adalwolf, a protégé of the Butcher of Auschwitz, who has turned up in America intending to commit murder by unleashing a virus through Melissa's unborn child.

If you enjoy reading simple human-interest stories and would like to learn things at the same time, you will enjoy reading the author’s reminiscences in this book about growing up in Shepard, Alberta, a small hamlet near the City of Calgary in the 1930s and early 1940s. This book also will appeal to history buffs, cartographers, teachers and professors, students of social history, and anyone interested in family histories, particularly those from Shepard, past or present. You will learn how morality was instilled in children unobtrusively, and how their behavior was developed by innovating ways of playing and socializing. Importantly also, you will learn how people made a living in a small hamlet at a railway junction surrounded by an area of agricultural farmland. After the start of World War II in 1939 a military airfield was built near Shepard that was used throughout the early 1940s. Along with airfields in Calgary and other airfields nearby in southern Alberta, the entire area provided land terrain suitable for emergency landings if necessary by training aircraft. Airplane pilots, navigators and radio operators were trained for the Royal Canadian Air Force and allied countries as well as airmen from Australia and New Zealand as part of the British Commonwealth Air Training Program. The author of this book has stories from this period about the aircraft seen flying frequently in this area, about certain aircraft related incidents, and how the airmen created ways to have a social life even while on duty. The objective of the book is to provide historical primary source information in an entertaining way through human-interest stories.

The man behind Spider-Man, The X-Men, The Incredible Hulk, and a legion of other superheroes tells his own amazing story in a book packed with punch, humor, anecdotes, and a gallery of never-before-seen photographs. Stan Lee is the most legendary name in the history of comicbooks. The leading creative force behind the rise of Marvel Comics, he brought to life some of the world's best-known heroes and most infamous villains. His stories, featuring super- heroes who struggled against personal hang-ups and bad guys who possessed previously unseen psychological complexity, added wit and subtlety to a field previously locked into flat portrayals of good vs. evil. Lee put the human in the super-human. In the process, he created a new mythology for the twentieth century. In this treasure trove of marvelous memories, Stan tells the story of his life with the same inimitable wit, energy, and offbeat spirit that he brought to the world of comicbooks. He moves from his impoverished childhood in Manhattan to his early days writing comicbooks, followed by military training films during World War II, through the rise of the Marvel empire in the 1960s to his recent adventures in Hollywood. The story of a man who earned respect by blazing new creative trails in a storytelling form once dismissed as just for kids, Excelsior! is an inspirational story about following one's vision, no matter the odds. Yet it's also the story of how some of the most exciting and memorable characters in the pop-culture universe came to thrill a generation.
