But behind it all stood Lady Evelyn Herbert, daughter of Lord Carnarvon--whose daring spirit and relentless curiosity made the momentous find possible. Nearly 3,000 years earlier, another woman defied the expectations of her time: Hatshepsut, Egypt's lost pharaoh. Her reign was bold, visionary, and nearly erased from history. When Evelyn becomes obsessed with finding Hatshepsut's secret tomb, she risks everything to uncover the truth about her reign and keep valued artifacts in Egypt, their rightful home. But as danger closes in and political tensions rise, she must make an impossible choice: protect her father's legacy, or forge her own.]]></description><link>https://livermorelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S175C1894777</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://livermorelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S175C1894777</guid><category><![CDATA[BOOK_CD]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Benedict, Marie]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://livermorelibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1894777175</comments><format>BOOK_CD</format><subtitle>A Novel</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9798228629745/MC.GIF&amp;client=livermoreplb&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Operation Bounce House]]></title><description><![CDATA[Oliver Lewis runs the family ranch on New Sonora with his sister.

The Zorg (a Dutch word meaning "care") was one of thousands of such ships, but the harrowing events that ensued on its doomed journey were unique. After reaching Africa, the Zorg was captured by a privateer and came under British command. With a new captain and crew, the ship was crammed with 442 slaves and departed in 1781 for Jamaica. But a series of unpredictable weather events and mistakes in navigation left the ship drastically off course and running out of water. So a proposition was put forth: Save the crew and the most valuable of the slaves--by throwing dozens of people, starting with women and children, overboard. What followed was a fascinating legal drama in England's highest court that turned the brutal calculus of slavery into front-page news. The case of the Zorg catapulted the nascent anti-slavery movement from a minor evangelical cause to one of the most consequential moral campaigns in history--sparking the abolitionist movement in both England and the young United States.]]></description><link>https://livermorelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S175C1894784</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://livermorelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S175C1894784</guid><category><![CDATA[BOOK_CD]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Kara, Siddharth]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://livermorelibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1894784175</comments><format>BOOK_CD</format><subtitle>A Tale of Greed and Murder That Inspired the Abolition of Slavery</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781250443779/MC.GIF&amp;client=livermoreplb&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let's Go for A Drive!]]></title><description><![CDATA[Gerald is careful.

Suddenly, things that had seemed routine before were falling through the cracks. An evaluation finally led to a diagnosis: ADHD. Erik Gude, who was diagnosed in his teens, had a slightly different path. While an ADHD diagnosis might explain the cause of some of his academic challenges, it would take years before he understood the other ways it affected other aspects of his life. When they connected as adults, it didn₂t take long before they realized other people might feel just as lost as they had. With roughly eight million adults living with ADHD and more people seeking and receiving diagnoses each year, The ADHD Field Guide for Adults is a witty, thoughtful, and practical guide to living with ADHD in adulthood, from two people who know what it's like. Featuring the most important foundational information about ADHD, it also explores issues that are rarely discussed, such as navigating sex and intimacy, the healthcare system, and home care. And unlike existing titles on the topic, it is intentionally structured to incorporate ADHD accessibility features by offering bite-sized pieces of knowledge in a format that caters to the unique needs of ADHD listeners.]]></description><link>https://livermorelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S175C1894782</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://livermorelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S175C1894782</guid><category><![CDATA[BOOK_CD]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Osborn, Cate]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://livermorelibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1894782175</comments><format>BOOK_CD</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781797194394/MC.GIF&amp;client=livermoreplb&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Kin]]></title><description><![CDATA[Vernice and Annie, two motherless daughters raised in Honeysuckle, Louisiana, have been best friends and neighbors since earliest childhood but are fated to live starkly different lives.

He showed up at Arden Bowie's debut author appearance with a copy of her novel and an eager smile. He showered her with compliments and got her autograph. Then he came to her next event. And the one after that. Dustin was just an aspiring writer who wanted advice, Arden reassured herself. But after giving in to one of his incessant invitations and chatting with him over coffee, she discovered that ignoring her inner alarm bell had been a terrible mistake… An introvert at heart, Arden had long craved solitude-but now, after a harrowing assault, she finds herself hiding behind locked doors and startling at every sound. And her relief at his imprisonment is tempered by anxiety when Dustin's wealthy mother helps to get him a paltry five-year sentence at a psychiatric facility. Arden decides to write a new story for herself, moving to a tiny Oregon town and befriending Gideon, an ex-LAPD detective. But while she learns to thrive, Dustin remains his delusional, twisted self, as fixated as ever and now seething with anger. He still believes Arden's purpose on earth is to serve and please him. And his job is to protect her. But who will protect her from him?]]></description><link>https://livermorelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S175C1894783</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://livermorelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S175C1894783</guid><category><![CDATA[BOOK_CD]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Roberts, Nora]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://livermorelibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1894783175</comments><format>BOOK_CD</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781250444783/MC.GIF&amp;client=livermoreplb&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nobody's Girl]]></title><description><![CDATA[The unforgettable memoir by the late Virginia Roberts Giuffre, the woman who dared to take on Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell The world knows Virginia Roberts Giuffre as Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell's most outspoken victim: the woman whose decision to speak out helped send both serial abusers to prison, whose photograph with Prince Andrew catalyzed his fall from grace. But her story has never been told in full, in her own words-until now. In April 2025, Giuffre took her own life. She left behind a memoir written in the years preceding her death and stated unequivocally that she wanted it published. Nobody's Girl is the riveting and powerful story of an ordinary girl who would grow up to confront extraordinary adversity. Here, Giuffre offers an unsparing and definitive account of her time with Epstein and Maxwell, who trafficked her and others to numerous prominent men. She also details the molestation she suffered as a child, as well as her daring escape from Epstein and Maxwell's grasp at nineteen. Giuffre remade her life from scratch and summoned the courage to not only hold her abusers to account but also advocate for other victims. The pages of Nobody's Girl preserve her voice-and her legacy-forever. Nobody's Girl is an astonishing affirmation of Giuffre's unshakable will-first, to claw her way out of victimhood, and then to shine light on wrongdoing and fight for a safer, fairer world. Equal parts intimate and fierce, it is a remarkable narrative of fortitude in the face of depravity and despair.]]></description><link>https://livermorelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S175C1894780</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://livermorelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S175C1894780</guid><category><![CDATA[BOOK_CD]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Giuffre, Virginia Roberts]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://livermorelibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1894780175</comments><format>BOOK_CD</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9798217412914/MC.GIF&amp;client=livermoreplb&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dracula]]></title><description><![CDATA[One of the most famous pieces of English literature, and a classic for a reason, Dracula is the epitome of vampire fiction and a must-read for any horror fan.

Neveah and their father, who run the Carruthers Crematorium in the run-down central Virginia town of Jefferson Run, see death up close every day. But mortality draws even closer when it becomes clear that the crash that landed their father in a coma was no accident and Dante's recklessness has placed them all in real danger. Roman, a financial whiz with a head for numbers and a talent for making his clients rich, has some money to help buy his brother out of trouble. But in his work with wannabe tough guys, he's forgotten that there are real gangsters out there. As his bargaining chips go up in smoke, Roman realizes that he has only one thing left to offer to save his brother: himself, and his own particular set of skills. Roman begins his work for the criminals while Neveah tries to uncover the long-ago mystery of what happened to their mother, who disappeared when they were teenagers. But Roman is far less of a pushover than the gangsters realize. He is willing to do anything to save his family.]]></description><link>https://livermorelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S175C1894779</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://livermorelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S175C1894779</guid><category><![CDATA[BOOK_CD]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Cosby, S.
