A tiny girl is abandoned on a ship headed for Australia in 1913. She arrives completely alone with nothing but a small suitcase containing a few clothes and a single book -- a beautiful volume of fairy tales. She is taken in by the dockmaster and his wife and raised as their own. On her twenty-first birthday, they tell her the truth, and with her sense of self shattered and very little to go on, "Nell" sets out to trace her real identity. Her quest leads her to Blackhurst Manor on the Cornish coast and the secrets of the doomed Mountrachet family. But it is not until her granddaughter, Cassandra, takes up the search after Nell's death that all the pieces of the puzzle are assembled. A spellbinding tale of mystery and self-discovery, The Forgotten Garden will take hold of your imagination and never let go.

In one week, Manhattan will be gone. In one month, the country. In two months . . . the world. At New York's JFK Airport an arriving Boeing 777 taxiing along a runway suddenly stops dead. All the shades have been drawn, all communication channels have mysteriously gone quiet. Dr. Eph Goodweather, head of a CDC rapid-response team investigating biological threats, boards the darkened plane . . . and what he finds makes his blood run cold. A terrifying contagion has come to the unsuspecting city, an unstoppable plague that will spread like an all-consuming wildfire—lethal, merciless, hungry . . . vampiric. And in a pawnshop in Spanish Harlem an aged Holocaust survivor knows that the war he has been dreading his entire life is finally here . . .

Demain... les robots, bien plus performants que l'humain moyen, nous auront supplantés. Nous serons persécutés par des mutants télépathes. Nous deviendrons les esclaves de la publicité. Demain nous perdrons notre libre arbitre. Si toutefois nous survivons au grand cataclysme... Tels sont les avenirs pessimistes imaginés par l'esprit paranoïaque de Philip K. Dick. Ces nouvelles, dont les thèmes sont depuis devenus des classiques du genre, prennent sous la plume du Maître une saveur particulière. La question "et si?", chère aux amateurs d'anticipation, se pare ici de son sens le plus noir et le plus inquiétant.
