The whistle blower [large print] / by Merrill, Robin,author.;
"Work-at-home-mom Sandra's life is a whirlwind of activity. So, why's she so bored? When a referee drops dead during her son's soccer game, and a short man claiming to be an angel asks her to help investigate -- suddenly, life's not so boring. The angel (is he really an angel?) tells her to go undercover as a soccer referee, which, of course, is ridiculous. She hasn't run anywhere since high school. But Sandra will find out she is still capable of far more than she thought--with a little help from above."-- Back cover.

Men in space / by McCarthy, Tom,1969 May 22-author.(CARDINAL)344743; Critchley, Simon,1960-writer of afterword.(CARDINAL)351139;
"The first novel written by Booker finalist Tom McCarthy--acclaimed author of Remainder and C-- Men in Space is set in a Central Europe rapidly fragmenting after the fall of communism. It follows an oddball cast--dissolute bohemians, political refugees, a football referee, a disorientated police agent, and a stranded astronaut--as they chase a stolen painting from Sofia to Prague and onward. Planting the themes that McCarthy's later works develop, here McCarthy questions the meaning of all kinds of space--physical, political, emotional, and metaphysical--as reflected in the characters' various disconnections. What emerges is a vision of humanity adrift in history, and a world in a state of disintegration." --
