The First Rule by Robert Crais

The organized criminal gangs of the former Soviet Union are bound by what they call the thieves’ code. The first rule is this: A thief must forsake his mother, father, brothers, and sisters. He must have no family-no wife, no children-because only other criminals are his family. If any of the rules are broken, it is punishable by death.

The Valley of The Horses by Jean M. Auel

Sharing a hidden valley with a herd of steppe horses, Ayla finds a unique friendship with animals as vulnerable as herself and ingeniously discovers the complex skills needed to survive-skills no Clan member was ever able to master. But none of her experiences prepares her for the emotional turmoil she feels when she rescues a young man-the first of the Others she has seen-from almost certain death.

Worst Case by James Patterson

Best Case: Survival The son of one of New York’s wealthiest families is snatched off the street and held hostage. His parents can’t save him because this kidnapper isn’t demanding money.

Worst Case: Death Detective Michael Bennett leads the investigation. As another student disappears, another powerful family uses their leverage and connections to turn up the heat to stop this killer. Their reach extends all the way to the FBI, which sends its top Abduction specialist, Agent Emily Parker.

This Case: Detective Michael Bennett is On It Before Bennett has a chance to protest the FBI’s intrusion on his case, the mastermind changes his routine. His plan leads up to the most devastating demonstration yet-one that could bring cataclysmic ruin to every inch of New York City.
