Turning Point-Danielle Steel
KSh 400.00From San Francisco to Paris, the lives of four talented trauma doctors are changed forever in Turning Point, a heart-pounding and gripping medical drama by the world’s favourite storyteller Danielle Steel.
Four very different doctors battle disaster on the frontline every day.
Bill Browning heads the trauma unit at San Francisco’s busiest emergency room. With his ex-wife and daughters in London, he immerses himself in his work and lives for the little time he can spend with his children.
A rising star at her teaching hospital, Stephanie Lawrence is left with no time for her young family.
Harvard-educated Wendy Jones is a dedicated trauma doctor, trapped in an affair with a married cardiac surgeon.
And Tom Wylie’s popularity with women rivals his superb medical skills, but he refuses to let anyone get too close.
This talented group of doctors is chosen for an unusual project: to work with their counterparts in Paris in a mass-casualty training programme. But after an unspeakable act of mass violence brings them closer together, it marks a stark turning point and they are forced to question the way they live their lives.
Will they be able to recover from their shared trauma and make real changes for the better?

Hell Island
KSh 650.00The vicious-looking airCRaft shot aCRoss the sky at near supersonic speed.
It was a modified Hercules cargo plane, known as an MC-130 “Combat Talon,” the delivery vehicle of choice for U.S. Special Forces units.
This Combat Talon stayed high, very high, it was as if it was trying to avoid being seen by radar systems down at sea level. This was unusual, because there was nothing down there—according to the maps, the nearest land in this part of the Pacific was an atoll 500 klicks to the east.
Then the rear loading ramp of the Combat Talon rumbled open and several dozen tiny figures issued out from it in rapid sequence, spreading out into the sky behind the soaring plane.
The forty-strong flock of paratroopers plummeted to earth, men in high-altitude jumpsuits—full-face breathing masks; streamlined black bodysuits. They angled their bodies downward as they fell, so that they flew head-first, their masks pointed into the onrushing wind, becoming human spears, freefalling with serious intent.
It was a classic HALO drop—high-altitude, low-opening. You jumped from 37,000 feet, fell fast and hard, and then stopped dangerously close to the ground, right at your drop zone.
Curiously, however, the forty elite troops falling to earth today fell in identifiable subgroups, ten men to a group, as if they were trying to remain somehow separate.
