Twice Kissed by Jackson, Lisa.(CARDINAL)341054;
Marquise Walker has vanished without a trace. There are few clues and much speculation on her sudden disappearance. But the truth is more terrifying than anyone can imagine. Desperately worried, her twin sister Maggie will do anything she can to find her. Could you trust the man who might have killed her? Thane Walker is the only man Maggie ever loved. He is also Marquise's husband. Now he is the man she really shouldn't trust. He could be her best hope; but he could be a cold-blooded killer...How would you react if you found out your sister wasn't the person you thought she was? The deeper Maggie digs, the more she is drawn into the web of her sister's past - to a twisted family legacy of desperate deceit, betrayal and revenge - each secret bringing her closer to a final shocking truth, and to a killer who is closer than she could ever imagine.Fiction

1789 : twelve authors explore a year of rebellion, revolution, and change / by Aronson, Marc,editor.(CARDINAL)767743; Bartoletti, Susan Campbell,editor.(CARDINAL)378891;
Includes bibliographical references (page 186-195) and index.Exhilaration. "The fishwives make the rules": the October days of the French Revolution / by Tanya Lee Stone -- The contradictory king: Gustav III and the unlikely beginnings of class equality in Sweden / by Karen Englemann -- Pi, Vega, and the battle at Belgrade / by Amy Alznauer -- Abomination. The Queen's chemise: Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun, portraitist of Marie Antoinette / by Susan Campbell Bartoletti -- The choice: Paris, 1789 / by Marc Aronson -- "All men are created equal": the global journey of Olaudah Equiano / by Joyce Hansen -- Inspiration. The Wesleyans in the West Indies / by Summer Edward -- Who counted in America? / by Cynthia Levinson and Sanford Levinson -- Mary Jemison and the Seneca nation / by Christopher Turner -- Conclusions. Challenging time: Dr. James Hutton, the father of geology / by Sally M. Walker -- Mutiny on the Bounty / by Steve Sheinkin."The Rights of Man." What does that mean? In 1789 that question rippled all around the world. Do all men have rights--not just nobles and kings? What then of enslaved people, women, the original inhabitants of the Americas? In the new United States a bill of rights was passed, while in France the nation tumbled toward revolution. In the Caribbean preachers brought word of equality, while in the South Pacific sailors mutinied. New knowledge was exploding, with mathematicians and scientists rewriting the history of the planet and the digits of pi. Lauded anthology editors Marc Aronson and Susan Campbell Bartoletti, along with ten award-winning nonfiction authors, explore a tumultuous year when rights and freedoms collided with enslavement and domination, and the future of humanity seemed to be at stake. Some events and actors are familiar: Thomas Jefferson and James Madison, Marie Antoinette and the Marquis de Lafayette. Others may be less so: the eloquent former slave Olaudah Equiano, the Seneca memoirist Mary Jemison, the fishwives of Paris, the mathematician Jurij Vega, and the painter Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun. But every chapter brings fresh perspectives on the debates of the time, inviting readers to experience the passions of the past and ask new questions of today.Grade 7-12.1150LAccelerated Reader AR
