A Washington Post Best Novel of the Year

An NPR Best Mystery of the Year

This suspenseful novel from the New York Times bestselling author of City of Light follows a photojournalist as she takes on an assignment that will involve blackmail, espionage, and murder--all in the early days of America's involvement in World War II.

In the anxious and uncertain days after Pearl Harbor, beautiful, talented Life magazine photojournalist Claire Shipley is assigned to cover the clinical testing of a new medication at the renowned Rockefeller Institute in New York. Still grieving the death of her young daughter from an infection, Claire is shocked by what she finds there: the doctors and researchers are attempting to cure fatal infections with a little-known, temperamental medicine made from green mold, which they're calling penicillin--and that may be just the beginning of their breakthroughs.

As the nation plunges into war, Claire begins an intense love affair with James Stanton, an Institute physician given the difficult, top-secret task of coordinating penicillin research for the military. Meanwhile Claire's long-estranged father, a self-made millionaire entrepreneur, is realizing the potential of the new mold-derived medications to transform the very nature of human existence.

When James's sister and colleague dies under suspicious circumstances, the stakes involved in the antibiotic breakthrough become starkly clear. Caught between the extremes of war and greed, Claire finds her new relationship challenged in ways she could never have predicted.

At once a thriller, a love story, a family saga, and a window into the tumultuous home front during World War II, A FIERCE RADIANCE will captivate readers.

Syrup
Flavor Name: Vanilla
The Torani Vanilla Coffee Syrup is a great value and a nice, generous size. The vanilla flavor is smooth and works well in coffee and other drinks. I really appreciate that it comes with a pump—it makes dispensing easy and mess-free once it’s set up. However, it’s important to note that when you first insert the pump into a new, full bottle, the syrup can spill over due to the displacement. I recommend placing the bottle in the sink or removing a small amount of syrup before inserting the pump. Overall, a solid product with great flavor and convenience, just be cautious during the initial setup.

Makes delicious iced coffee!
Flavor Name: Vanilla, Flavor Name: Vanilla
Im someone who likes their coffee to actually taste like coffee and I love this syrup. I’ve been making iced coffee at home almost daily lately, and this vanilla syrup is the only one I keep reaching for. The flavor is smooth and sweet without tasting artificial, and it actually tastes good in iced drinks instead of getting lost in the coffee. The pump also makes it really easy to use without the sticky mess. My current go-to drink: • 2 pumps vanilla syrup • Double espresso pod • Pour over lots of ice • Splash of almond milk • Finish with brown sugar creamer Your bank account will thank me!!!

Syrup is excellent, the pump is dramatic
Flavor Name: Vanilla
I am marking 5 for the syrup itself, my favorite syrup. In regards of the pump, a little too dramatic for me and it will go everywhere. I would rather pour the syrup, including I found the pump will leak and there was a ring of syrup around the base of the bottle. Perfect for a coffee shop, but not for a basic kitchen....but I am picky about syrup splattering because the sugar ants are a nightmare.

GREAT GRAPE FLAVORED AND INCREASED ENERGY
Set name: Welch's Grape
I have tried the competitor’s grape flavored versions. This is by far the best grape flavored energy drink. It gives you the increased energy level you’re looking for without making you feel “fidgety.” Highly recommend this energy drink for its effectiveness and flavor!

Green Apple is the best!
Set name: Warheads Sour Green Apple
Love these, I am subscribed for every two weeks, they last me one a day at work until the next shipment. Yay! Green sour apple is just the best. It’s slightly sour and refreshing. I work graveyard and stay awake all night with one of these. Super effective, great value for the money since I’m getting them cheaper this way than buying one a day at the convenience store next to my house. They’re sugar free but use sucralose, which is wannabe sugar but still, I’d say better for me (pre-diabetic) than real sugar.
