Hardback. Condición: Good. Aud Torvingen returns--against her better instincts--scarred, heartbroken, changed, but tougher and rougher than ever. Stay in the world, she had said, and this was the world I had made.Seven months after the tragic events that unfold in The Blue Place, Aud is rebuilding a log cabin in the middle of the Appalachians. She wants nothing to do with the world. She is waiting for nature to heal her. The last thing she wants is another case. But then Dornan, her only real friend, tracks her down. He needs her to find his runaway fianc e. Aud feels obliged to help, and finds herself up against both a sociopath so artful that the law can't touch him--and against her own demons, the specters of loss and guilt. Aud, of course, wins--she always wins--but the price is a new understanding of herself, the renunciation of her wilderness redoubt, a return to Atlanta. Nicola Griffith's Stay is a ferocious masterpiece of literary noir, and in its pages Aud fuses her steely moral authority with a new, ever-evolving, tortured complexity. She emerges as a full-fledged classic noir hero (The New York Times Book Review)--as indomitable as Jack Reacher, sexier than La Femme Nikita, but wrecked and befuddlingly human.…

Hardback. Condición: Very Good. A police lieutenant with the elite Red Dogs until she retired at twenty-nine, Aud Torvigen is a rangy six-footer with eyes the color of cement and a tendency to hurt people who get in her way. Born in Norway into the failed marriage between a Scandinavian diplomat and an American businessman, she now makes Atlanta her home, luxuriating in the lush heat and brashness of the New South.

Paperback. Condición: Fair. The award-winning author Nicola Griffith's brilliant, lush, sweeping historical novel about the rise of the most powerful woman of the Middle Ages: Hild. In seventh-century Britain, small kingdoms are merging, frequently and violently. A new religion is coming ashore; the old gods are struggling, their priests worrying. Hild is the king's youngest niece, and she has a glimmering mind and a natural, noble authority. She will become a fascinating woman and one of the pivotal figures of the Middle Ages: Saint Hilda of Whitby. But now she has only the powerful curiosity of a bright child, a will of adamant, and a way of seeing the world--of studying nature, of matching cause with effect, of observing her surroundings closely and predicting what will happen next--that can seem uncanny, even supernatural, to those around her. Her uncle, Edwin of Northumbria, plots to become overking of the Angles, ruthlessly using every tool at his disposal: blood, bribery, belief. Hild establishes a place for herself at his side as the king's seer. And she is indispensable--unless she should ever lead the king astray. The stakes are life and death: for Hild, for her family, for her loved ones, and for the increasing numbers who seek the protection of the strange girl who can read the world and see the future. Hild is a young woman at the heart of the violence, subtlety, and mysticism of the early Middle Ages--all of it brilliantly and accurately evoked by Nicola Griffith's luminous prose. Working from what little historical record is extant, Griffith has brought a beautiful, brutal world to vivid, absorbing life.…
