      Winter has come to Route 117, a remote road through the high desert of Utah trafficked only by eccentrics, fugitives, and those looking to escape the world. Local truck driver Ben Jones, still in mourning over a heartbreaking loss, finds a mute Hispanic child who has been abandoned at a seedy truck stop along his route, far from civilization and bearing a note that simply reads "Please Ben. Watch my son. His name is Juan." At the bottom: "Bad Trouble. Tell no one." Ben takes the child with him in his truck and sets out into an environment that is as dangerous as it is beautiful and silent.

      Ben Jones ist ein 30-jähriger LKW-Fahrer und beliefert seine Kunden auf einer abgelegenen, hundert Meilen langen Strecke in der Wüste Utahs. Er ist ein Waisenkind, ledig, mürrisch, schnell pleite. Seinem besten Freund, dem alten Walt Butterfield, gehört das Well-Known Desert Diner, das er 1953 kaufte und 1972 nach einer Tragödie schloss. Er lädt Ben manchmal zu sich zum Essen ein. Außerdem besitzt er ein Vincent Black Shadow Motorrad von 1948 und eine Wurlitzer Jukebox von 1948. In dieser abgeschiedenen Welt taucht die mysteriöse Claire auf, die sich in einem verlassenen Haus versteckt. Eines Tages schaut Ben in ihr Fenster. Sie ist nackt und scheint Cello zu spielen. Als sie ihn sieht, fragt sie ihn: „Bist du ein Musikliebhaber oder nur ein Perverser?“ und zieht eine Waffe. Mysteriöse Fremde beschatten Ben von da an. Wir treffen John, den Gründer der Ersten Kirche des Wüstenkreuzes, der seine Tage damit verbringt, ein zehn Fuß langes Holzkreuz auf einem verlassenen Highway zu tragen. Ginny, eine Obdachlose, im acht Monat schwanger, die am College studieren will. Wertvolles verschwindet, Menschen sterben gewaltsam und plötzlich sieht sich Ben eines Mordes angeklagt. Mit „Desert Moon“ ist James Andersons ein wundervoll leiser Roman gelungen, in den sich das Verbrechen einschleicht.

      This is a new edition of the the first Masonic book printed in America, which was originally produced in Philadelphia by Benjamin Franklin in 1734, and was a reprint of a work by James Anderson (who is identified as the author in an appendix) printed in London in 1723. This is the seminal work of American Masonry, edited and published by one of the founding fathers, and of great importance to the development of colonial society and the formation of the Republic. The work contains a 40-page history of Masonry: from Adam to the reign of King George I, including, among others, Noah, Abraham, Moses, Solomon, Hiram Abif, Nebuchadnezzar, Augustus Caesar, Vitruvius, King Athelstan the Saxon, Inigo Jones, and James I of England. It is a celebration of the science of Geometry and the Royal Art of Architecture. The work also includes five songs, one of which-"A New Song"-appears in print for the first time and may have been composed by Franklin.

      A chance meeting on the Fijian island of Taveuni is the trigger for a fascinating and mysterious novel that intertwines the stories of John Spooke, an English author who is grieving for his dead wife; Frank Andersen, a Norwegian evolutionary biologist estranged from his wife Vera; and an enigmatic Spanish couple, Ana and Jose, who are absorbed in their love for each other. Why does Ana bear such a close resemblance to the model for Goya's famous Maja paintings? What is the significance of the Joker as he steps out of his pack of cards? As the action moves from Fiji to Spain, from the present to the past, unfolding further stories within the stories, the novel reveals an astonishing richness and complexity. As bold and imaginative in its sweep as Sophie's World, it shows again that Jostein Gaarder's unique and special gift is to make us wonder at the awe-inspiring mystery of the universe.
