Christine Hale is an extraordinarily gifted writer, as "Basil's Dream" so eloquently testifies. Her moral vision is as clear and unblinking as the fine eye she trains on Bermuda, in all its paradoxical beauty and poverty, its landscape of privilege and thwarted dreams. --Richard Russo A novel of soul-searing love, lies and betrayals, and struggles of conscience. Lucy Langston's marriage is failing when her husband Darrell is suddenly offered a new job as CFO for an American insurance firm in Bermuda. With their twelve-year-old son Peyton, they leave their affluent Connecticut life to start anew in a paradise of pink beaches and quaint British decorum. But a darker reality emerges, and each of them becomes secretly entangled with Marcus Passjohn, a charismatic opposition leader known for his defense of the island's underclass, and Marcus's alienated son Zef, a budding anarchist.

In this groundbreaking book about how women perceive, are prepared for, and cope with ambition and achievement, psychiatrist Anna Fels examines ambition at the deepest psychological level. Cutting to the core of what ambition can provide—the essential elements of a fulfilling life—Fels describes why, for women but not for men, ambition still remains fraught with often painful conflict. Fels draws on case studies, research, interviews, and autobiographies of accomplished and celebrated women past and present—writers, artists, architects, politicians, actors—to explore the ways in which women are brought up to avoid recognition and visibility in favor of traditional feminine values and why they often choose to nurture and defer to rather than compete with men. She poses invaluable questions: What is the nature of ambition and how important is it in a woman’s life? What are the forces that promote or impede its development? To what extent does ambition go against a woman’s very nature? And she challenges currently held theories about the state of mind and the needs of men. Incisive and highly readable, Necessary Dreams is a unique exploration of the options and obstacles women face in the pursuit of their goals. It is a book that every woman will want—and need—to read.

Karen has lived a life of disappointment and grief. When she finds an abandoned baby, she decides to keep her and name her Cari Moses. Cari becomes the epicenter of Karen’s life, but she is blind to the trail of devastation her actions leave in their wake. Karen’s personal grief and deception are inextricably linked to the activities of a serial killer who harbors a fascination with pregnancy. These players inhabit a dark world of contrasts where the hopes and aspirations of youth become enmeshed in despair and depravity. Along the way, they face the weight of human frailty and discover what it takes to be extraordinary. In this psychological thriller, duality is brought to the forefront as the ruthless ambition and dubious skill of the amateur is pitched against the shortcomings of professionals, and the players are faced with harsh realities and dire consequences. Set among the rambling inland waterways and the rushing pulse of cities, Cari Moses unfolds through the drama of hospital life from midwifery to the ICU. A national police alert causes chaos, while relationships remain tenuous as Karen progresses toward discovery and retribution—and evil lurks in the shadows.
