      Past Perfect is a spellbinding story of two families living a hundred years apart who open the door to an unimaginable friendship . . . Sybil and Blake Gregory live a well-ordered, predictable Manhattan life -- she as a cutting-edge design authority and museum consultant, he in high-tech investments -- raising their teenagers Andrew and Caroline and six-year-old Charlie. But when Blake is offered a dream job as CEO of a start-up in San Francisco, he accepts it, without consulting his wife, and buys a magnificent, historic mansion as their new home in Pacific Heights. Past and present collide at their elegant mansion, when they meet the large and lively family who lived there a century ago. All long dead but very much alive in spirit--visible to the Gregorys and no one else. Within these enchanted rooms, it is at once 1917 and a century later. Have the Gregorys been given a perfect gift; beloved friends, a chance to relive the past and the wisdom and grace to shape the future?

      Comment débarrasser la Terre de ses sept milliards d’habitants ? Retirez aux hommes leur humanité… Sortir vivant des quatre premières vagues relevait déjà du miracle. Cassie Sullivan se retrouve maintenant dans un nouveau monde, un monde dans lequel la confiance fondamentale qui reliait les hommes a totalement disparu. Tandis que la 5e Vague engloutit progressivement le paysage, Cassie, Ben et Ringer doivent faire face à la visée ultime des Autres : l’extermination pure et simple de l’espèce humaine. Cassie et ses amis ne savent pas encore jusqu’où les Autres sont prêts à s’abaisser. Les Autres, eux, ne savent pas non plus jusqu’à quelle hauteur l’humanité peut se hisser à l’aube de la bataille finale entre vie et mort, espoir et désespoir, amour et haine.

      After the 1st wave, only darkness remains. After the 2nd, only the lucky escape. And after the 3rd, only the unlucky survive. After the 4th wave, only one rule applies: trust no one. Now, it's the dawn of the 5th wave, and on a lonely stretch of highway, Cassie runs from Them. The beings who only look human, who roam the countryside killing anyone they see. Who have scattered Earth's last survivors. To stay alone is to stay alive, Cassie believes, until she meets Evan Walker. Beguiling and mysterious, Evan Walker may be Cassie's only hope for rescuing her brother--or even saving herself. But Cassie must choose: between trust and despair, between defiance and surrender, between life and death. To give up or to get up.
