      By David, Michel, 1944-
       2007., Hurtubise HMH Call No: FR Fic Dav    Availability:1 of 1     At Your Library Series Title: Amours interdites   Volume: tome IIISummary Note: Le printemps 1967 s'annonce et avec lui souffle un vent nouveau qui fera virevolter le destin de plusieurs des habitants de Saint-Jacques-de-la-Rive. L'heure est au bouleversement des mœurs et des valeurs. Ce que l'on nommera plus tard la Révolution tranquille s'est bel et bien installée, malgré les répliques acerbes du curé Savard, à qui Étienne Fournier et les autres membres de la fabrique répondront sur le même ton. Le maire, Côme Crevier, ne sera pas en reste, incarnant dorénavant l'autorité dans son village. Alors que tous les regards sont fixés sur Montréal et son exposition universelle, les jeunes adultes des familles Veilleux, Fournier, Hamel et Tremblay sont appelés à faire des choix. Bataille de coq, déception amoureuse, emplois prometteurs, grossesse honteuse, promesse de mariage, émancipation, perte d'enfant, tous sont emportés par le tourbillon de la vie. Nostalgiques devant tous ces changements, la génération de leurs parents se réfugie dans les souvenirs. Étrangement, la relation chaotique qu'entretiennent Bertrand Tremblay et d'André Veilleux leur rappelle celle, aussi houleuse, de leurs grands-pères Eugène et Ernest.

       2018., Adult, G.P. Putnam's Sons Call No: SC MYS Fic Ker    Availability:1 of 1     At Your Library Series Title: Bernie Gunther novel   Volume: 13Summary Note: "Munich, 1956. Bernie Gunther has a new name, a chip on his shoulder, and a dead-end career when an old friend arrives to repay a debt and encourages 'Christoph Ganz' to take a job as a claims adjuster in a major German insurance company with a client in Athens, Greece. Under the cover of his new identity, Bernie begins to investigate a claim by Siegfried Witzel, a brutish former Wehrmacht soldier who served in Greece during the war. Witzel's claimed losses are large , and, even worse, they may be the stolen spoils of Greek Jews deported to Auschwitz. But when Bernie tries to confront Witzel, he finds that someone else has gotten to him first, leaving a corpse in his place. Enter Lieutenant Leventis, who recognizes in this case the highly grotesque style of a killer he investigated during the height of the war. Back then, a young Leventis suspected an S.S. officer whose connection to the German government made him untouchable. He's kept that man's name in his memory all these years, waiting for his second chance at justice... Working together, Leventis and Bernie hope to put their cases--new and old--to bed. But there's a much more sinister truth to acknowledge: A killer has returned to Athens...one who may have never left."--From publisher.

       2017., Adult, G.P. Putnam's Sons Call No: SC MYS Fic Ker   Edition: U.S. ed.    Availability:1 of 1     At Your Library Series Title: Bernie Gunther novel   Volume: 12Summary Note: "The French Riviera, 1956: The invitation to dinner was not unexpected, though neither was it welcome. Erich Mielke, deputy head of the East German Stasi, has turned up in Nice, and he's not on holiday. An old and dangerous adversary, Mielke is calling in a debt. He intends that Bernie go to London and, with the vial of Thallium he now pushes across the table, poison a female agent they both have had dealings with. But chance intervenes in the form of Friedrich Korsch, an old Kripo comrade now working for Stasi and probably there to make sure Bernie gets the job done. Bernie bolts for the German border. Traveling by night, holed up during the day, Bernie has plenty of down time to recall the last time Korsch and he worked together. It was the summer of 1939: At Hitler's mountaintop retreat in Obersalzberg, the body of a low-level bureaucrat has been found murdered. Bernie and Korsch are selected to run the case. They have one week to solve the murder--Hitler is due back then to celebrate his fiftieth birthday. Lucky Bernie: it's his reward for being Kripo's best homicide detective. He knows what a box he's in: millions have been spent to secure Obersalzberg. It would be a disaster if Hitler were to discover a shocking murder had been committed on the terrace of his own home. But the mountaintop is home to an elite Nazi community. It would be an even bigger disaster for Bernie if one of them was the murderer. 1939 and 1956: two different eras, seventeen years apart. And yet, not really apart, as the stunning climax will show when the two converge explosively."--From publisher.
