Summary
Critically acclaimed hard SF author Greg Bear shifts genre somewhat with this terrifying supernatural thriller. Peter Russell's career as a director of soft-core films has been wrecked by the easy availability of hard-core porn. Personally, he's in terrible shape, too: he's never recovered from his young daughter's murder two years ago and his best friend has just suffered a sudden, fatal heart attack The seeming salvation of Peter's professional life, an offer to work with a company manufacturing the "trans," a cell phone-type device with absolutely perfect reception, has a horrifying effect on his-and everyone else's-personal life when Peter realizes that the trans has the ability to contact the dead as well as the living.

The Education of Mrs. Bemis
by John Sedgwick
A dead body floating by a pier. An elderly woman curled up on a bed in a department store. A psychiatrist searching for her own identity. These are the pieces of the puzzle that, in John Sedgwick's masterful novel of psychological suspense, begin to come into focus when Madeline Bemis is referred to the treatment of Dr. Alice Matthews at Montrose Psychiatric Hospital. Mrs. Bemis's treatment gradually peels back the layers of adisturbing past whose shameful secrets and hidden sorrows stem from the war years of the 1940s -- and reveals an unexpected link tothe floating corpse. Mrs. Bemis's awakening sparks an intimacy between the two women that goes beyond an ordinary doctor/patientrelationship -- but also makes it clear that Mrs. Bemis's recovery, and perhaps even her safety, depends on quickly coming to terms with her secret history.
