When an exotic stranger, Vianne Rocher, arrives in the French village of Lansquenet and opens a chocolaterie directly opposite the church, Father Reynaud identifies her as a danger to his flock - especially as it is the beginning of Lent. War is declared as the priest denounces the newcomer's wares as the ultimate sin. Suddenly Vianne's shop-cum-cafe means that there is somewhere for secrets and grievances. But Vianne's plans for an Easter Chocolate Festival divide the whole community into an escalating 'Church not Chocolate' battle.

| Summary/Abstract |
Based on local history and family stories passed down by the author's great-great-grandfather, Cold Mountain is the tale of a wounded soldier Inman, who walks away from the ravages of the war and back home to his prewar sweetheart, Ada. Inman's odyssey through the devastated landscape of the soon-to-be-defeated South interweaves with Ada's struggle to revive her father's farm, with the help of an intrepid young drifter named Ruby. As their long-separated lives begin to converge at the close of the war, Inman and Ada confront the vastly transformed world they've been delivered. Charles Frazier reveals marked insight into man's relationship to the land and the dangers of solitude. He also shares with the great nineteenth-century novelists a keen observation of a society undergoing change. Cold Mountain re-creates a world gone by that speaks eloquently to our time. A wounded soldier makes his way home to the highlands of North Carolina and to his pre civil war sweetheart. The impact of the Civil War on lovers. Inman is not the man he used to be, as wounded in battle he slowly makes his way home to North Carolina. His sweetheart, Ada, too has changed, no longer a flighty belle but a hard-working farm woman. Will love be the same?

The plot in ‘The Da Vinci Code’ revolves around Robert Langdon, who interprets symbols at Harvard. He gets a shocking phone call at mid-night while in Paris. The administrator of the Louvre was killed in the premises of the museum and the dead body is accompanied by a sequence of codes.

They are astonished to find that the hints they are searching for are hidden in the works of Leonardo Da Vinci. Although the clues can be seen clearly, yet they are to be decoded. As the story unfolds, it is found out that the late administrator was affiliated with some secret society and his sole purpose was to safeguard the secret. Robert and Sophie then battle to decode the secrets running from cathedrals to castles around the whole Europe.

| Summary/Abstract |
This quirky novel - a besteller in India - chronicles an Indian student's year abroad at an American university. Gopal's hilarious misadventures with the American language, his flamboyant landlady, the ubiquitous hamburger, and, most of all, American women, form the basis for this wonderfully truthful story. Faced with the relentless sexuality of his fellow college students, the quintessentially decent Gopal reacts with a mixture of disbelief, sly amusement, and hormonal overload. Throughout his battles with racism, his own insecurity, and his family's warning that he will be severely judged should he dabble in America's temptations, Gopal retains a dignity and surprising shrewdness, rejecting the worst of what American offers even as he recognizes the best. Following reluctantly behind the outrageous leadership of his American friend Randy, the naive but observant Gopal reacts with a wit that far transcends his linguistic limitations.

| Summary/Abstract |
Joe O'Brien is a Boston cop; his physical stamina and methodical mind have seen him through decades of policing the city streets, while raising a family with his wife Rosie. When he starts making uncharacteristic errors - mislaying his weapon, having trouble writing up reports, slurring speech - he attributes them to stress, though he finally agrees to see a doctor. The unexpected, terrifying diagnosis is Huntington's disease. Not only is Joe's life set to change forever, but each of his four grown-up children has a fifty per cent chance of inheriting the disease. Observing her potential future play out in her father's escalating symptoms, his yoga-teacher daughter Katie wrestles with how to make the most of the here and now, and how to care for her dad who is, inside, always an O'Brien.
