“Solo includes faint echoes of Joseph Conrad, whose stories of adventure, intrigue and espionage are deeply infused with a sense of moral inquiry and consequence. . . . A Bond novel but also a Boyd one, with richer and deeper concerns coursing alongside the Flemingesque flourishes that should keep fans satisfied, as well.”

Abstract: The fundamental principles of cooking are presented for beginners and expert cooks alike. Each chapter is built around a method of preparation rather than a category of foods, and begins with a detailed description of several techniques, spiced with anecdotes, cooking tips, preparation methods, and equipment descriptions. Thus, the chapter on "Boiling" discusses simmering and reducing, making and using court bouillion, and then launches into the recipes that put these techniques to practical application. Other chapters feature braising, grilling, baking, thickeners, chilling, etc. Kitchen tools are discussed and illustrated; a check list includes everything from aluminum foil to electrical appliances. A chapter on "Noncooking" describes dishes made from raw meats, fruits, and vegetables (e.g., seviche or gazpacho). The "Concordance" is an invaluable shopping guide to food varieties, cuts of meat, seasonings, and where and when to find the best quality.

A Novel

“Bearskin is visceral, raw, and compelling—filled with sights, smells, and sounds truly observed. It’s a powerful debut and an absolute showcase of exceptional prose. There are very few first novels when I feel compelled to circle brilliant passages, but James McLaughlin’s writing had me doing just that.” —C.J. Box, #1 NYT bestselling author of The Disappeared Rice Moore is just beginning to think his troubles are behind him. He’s found a job protecting a remote forest preserve in Virginian Appalachia where his main responsibilities include tracking wildlife and refurbishing cabins. It’s hard work, and totally solitary—perfect to hide away from the Mexican drug cartels he betrayed back in Arizona. But when Rice finds the carcass of a bear killed on the grounds, the quiet solitude he’s so desperately sought is suddenly at risk. More bears are killed on the preserve and Rice’s obsession with catching the poachers escalates, leading to hostile altercations with the locals and attention from both the law and Rice’s employers. Partnering with his predecessor, a scientist who hopes to continue her research on the preserve, Rice puts into motion a plan that could expose the poachers but risks revealing his own whereabouts to the dangerous people he was running from in the first place. James McLaughlin expertly brings the beauty and danger of Appalachia to life. The result is an elemental, slow burn of a novel—one that will haunt you long after you turn the final page.
