Gibbys eldre brødre har tjenestegjort i Vietnam. En døde der. Den andre kom tilbake misforstått og hard, nå nylig løslatt etter tre år i fengsel. Jason vil ikke snakke om krigen eller om tiden bak murene, men han vil gjerne ha et forhold til Gibby, den yngre broren han ikke har kjent på årevis. Fast bestemt på å få den forbindelsen lokker han Gibby til en dag ved sjøen: lange timer med solskinn og whisky og eldre kvinner. Men dagen utvikler seg katastrofalt, og Jason havner igjen i politiets søkelys. Gibby er fast bestemt på å bevise at Jason er uskyldig, og dykker dypt inn i brorens skjulte liv, en mørk verden av heroin, våpen og ulovlige motorsykkelgjenger. Det han oppdager der er en sannhet mer dyster enn han kunne ha forestilt seg.

THE INSTANT BESTSELLER "We the unwilling, led by the unqualified to kill the unfortunate, die for the ungrateful." --Unknown Soldier Set in the South at the height of the Vietnam War, The Unwilling combines crime, suspense and searing glimpses into the human mind and soul in New York Times bestselling author John Hart's singular style. Gibby's older brothers have already been to war. One died there. The other came back misunderstood and hard, a decorated killer now freshly released from a three-year stint in prison. Jason won't speak of the war or of his time behind bars, but he wants a relationship with the younger brother he hasn't known for years. Determined to make that connection, he coaxes Gibby into a day at the lake: long hours of sunshine and whisky and older women. But the day turns ugly when the four encounter a prison transfer bus on a stretch of empty road. Beautiful but drunk, one of the women taunts the prisoners, leading to a riot on the bus. The woman finds it funny in the moment, but is savagely murdered soon after. Given his violent history, suspicion turns first to Jason; but when the second woman is kidnapped, the police suspect Gibby, too. Determined to prove Jason innocent, Gibby must avoid the cops and dive deep into his brother's hidden life, a dark world of heroin, guns and outlaw motorcycle gangs. What he discovers there is a truth more disturbing than he could have imagined: not just the identity of the killer and the reasons for Tyra's murder, but the forces that shaped his brother in Vietnam, the reason he was framed, and why the most dangerous man alive wants him back in prison. This is crime fiction at its most raw, an exploration of family and the past, of prison and war and the indelible marks they leave.

From John Hart, the twice-Edgar award winning US crime writing giant, The Unwillingis an exploration of family and the past, of prison and war and the indelible marksthey leave on a community. For fans of Chris Whitaker and Jane Harper.

I told her "I'm sorry baby, daddy can't fix it." Her eyes were black and her face swollen from the trauma. I leaned over and kissed her gently on the forehead, and slowly let her fingers slip from my grasp, letting go of my world, and turned and left. Damn the doctors, Damn the world, Damn God.

NOT EVERYONE DESERVES A SECOND CHANCE . . . After a tour of Vietnam and a three-year stint in prison, Jason is back in town and wants to rebuild his relationship with Gibby, the younger brother he hasn't seen for years. Determined to make that connection, he coaxes Gibby into a day at the lake: long hours of sunshine and whisky and older women. But when the four of them encounter a prison transfer bus on a stretch of empty road, one of the women taunts the prisoners, causing a riot on the bus. Soon after, Tyra is savagely murdered. Given his violent history, suspicion turns first to Jason. Determined to prove his older brother's innocence, Gibby must avoid the police and dive deep into his brother's hidden life, a journey that takes him into the darkest corners of the community. What he discovers is a truth more disturbing than he could have imagined: not just the identity of the killer and the reasons for Tyra's murder, but the forces that shaped his brother in Vietnam, the reason he was framed - and why the most dangerous man alive wants him back in prison.

This book covers real-time shading systems, their design and how they work. Procedural shading, long valued for off-line rendering and production animation is now possible on interactive graphics hardware. These developments are important for areas such as game development, product design, and scientific visualization, among others. The authors include examples of techniques for achieving common effects efficiently in a real-time shading language ranging from full procedural shading on advanced specialized hardware to limited, yet surprisingly flexible shading on unextended OpenGL, to modern PC graphics accelerators.

The question, "Are we alone in the cosmos?" has been answered. We are not alone. Geologist-paleontologist Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, SJ, stated, as early as the mid-1920s, that intelligent life likely exists elsewhere and distinguished scientists of today, including Harvard biologist, E. O. Wilson; Cambridge cosmologist, Stephen Hawking; astrophysicist and noted UAP researcher, Jacques Vallee; astronomer, Allen Hynek; and many others concur. The oral traditions of Native American elders teach that they have interacted periodically with Star People who are respected ancestors. Credible witness-participants today describe abductions by benevolent and malevolent Others. Discoveries by the Kepler, Hubble, and Gaia space telescopes, ground-based arrays of radio telescopes, and TESS (Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite) suggest that in the Milky Way, twenty-five billion planets are in the life-friendly Goldilocks Zone. In Third Displacement: Cosmobiology, Cosmolocality, Cosmosocioecology, author John Hart links experiences with research in science-based and Spirit-focused books and articles--including narratives about close encounters with Visitors from elsewhere in space (ETI) or Others from other cosmos dimensions (IDI)--in examination of the claim that Intelligent ExoEarth life exists, that Otherkind has visited humankind.

From the award-winning, New York Times bestselling author John Hart comes a gut-wrenching thriller about two brothers, one woman, and an explosive secret that threatens to tear their whole world apart... At the Iron Mountain Home for Boys, there was nothing but time for two orphans to learn that life isn't won without a fight. Julian survives only because his older brother, Michael, is both feared and fiercely protective. When an older boy is brutally killed, Michael makes the ultimate sacrifice to protect Julian: He flees the orphanage and takes the blame with him. For two decades, Michael thrives on the streets of New York, eventually clawing his way to a world of wealth, power, and respect. But the life he's made for himself unravels when he meets Elena, who knows nothing of his past or sins. Michael wants a fresh start with her, the chance to build a family of his own. But a life in organized crime is not so easily abandoned. Now, with a price on his head and everyone he loves at risk, Michael must return to North Carolina--to Julian, and to the secrets, lies, and danger that still remain at Iron House. "Grisham-style intrigue and Turow-style brooding."--The New York Times "Unforgettable."--Booklist (starred review)

Set in the world of his most beloved novel The Last Child ("A magnificent creation" --The Washington Post), John Hart delivers a stunning vision of a secret world, rarely seen. Hart evokes that surreal landscape with a power and economy worthy of the great British horror novelist Ramsey Campbell. --Washington Post New York Times bestsellerIt's been ten years since the events that changed Johnny Merrimon's life and rocked his hometown to the core. Since then, Johnny has fought to maintain his privacy, but books have been written of his exploits; the fascination remains. Living alone on six thousand acres of once-sacred land, Johnny's only connection to normal life is his old friend, Jack. They're not boys anymore, but the bonds remain. What they shared. What they lost. But Jack sees danger in the wild places Johnny calls home; he senses darkness and hunger, an intractable intent. Johnny will discuss none of it, but there are the things he knows, the things he can do. A lesser friend might accept such abilities as a gift, but Jack has felt what moves in the swamp: the cold of it, the unspeakable fear. More than an exploration of friendship, persistence, and forgotten power, The Hush leaves all categories behind, and cements Hart's status as a writer of unique power.

Mørkets testament er en frittstående oppfølger til den prisbelønte bestselgeren Det siste barnet. Bokener en hyllest til vennskap og en utforskning av den vonde arven etter slaveriet, brutal, spennende og velskrevet. Med denne boken, som i tid og sted spenner fra Afrika til Sørstatene før borgerkrigen og fra de harde 1930-årene til i dag, har Hart skrevet sitt mektigste og mørkeste verk. Det er gått ti år siden de dramatiske begivenhetene som endret Johnny Merrimons liv og rystet hjembyen hans. Han lever nå et halvvilt liv alene i villmarken, på den store eiendommen han arvet. Han kjenner hver kulp, hver åsside og hver lysning, hvert tråkk gjennom sumpen. Hans eneste forbindelse til det normale livet er hans gamle venn Jack. De er ikke lenger gutter, men tilknytningen er der – det de delte og det de mistet. Men Jack ser og sanser farer i sumpen. Han aner mørke hensikter og en grusom vilje. Johnny vil ikke snakke om det, men det finnes ting han vet, ting han kan gjøre. En dårligere venn ville kanskje ha sett slike evner som en gave, men Jack har selv opplevd det som beveger seg i sumpen, kulden og den ubeskrivelige angsten.
