Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just as their season was due to get underway. New Orleans' only college football team was forced by Katrina to evacuate and then relocate several times before settling in the northeast Louisiana town of Ruston for the balance of their season. For four months, the team battled doubt, fear, and uncertainty, playing "home" games on the road while they pondered if New Orleans would ever feel like home again. While each of Tulane's players dealt with a distinct sense of loss that season, several of the players native to New Orleans were hit the hardest as family homes were left uninhabitable and families were scattered across the South. Led by their strong-willed head coach, Chris Scelfo, the team learned the definition of perseverance as they struggled to stoke their competitive fires on the field while their lives remained in disarray off it. Benjamin Hochman, an award-winning journalist for The Times-Picayune, spent the 2005 Tulane season on the road with the team. Book jacket.

And when Zia's plan actually transports Alfie and Emilia to famous food cities around the world, they learn first-hand how food cannot only take you places but can also bring you back home. In the fourth book in the series, Zia's secret ingredient takes Alfie and Emilia to New Orleans. There they meet the members of a kids’ jazz band and are soon helping save the band’s performance venue, as well as tracking down a long-lost cookbook, which just might hold some very special secrets.

Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The award-winning book that inspired an Apple Original series from Apple TV+ • A landmark investigation of patient deaths at a New Orleans hospital ravaged by Hurricane Katrina—and the suspenseful portrayal of the quest for truth and justice—from a Pulitzer Prize–winning physician and reporter “An amazing tale, as inexorable as a Greek tragedy and as gripping as a whodunit.”—Dallas Morning News After Hurricane Katrina struck and power failed, amid rising floodwaters and heat, exhausted staff at Memorial Medical Center designated certain patients last for rescue. Months later, a doctor and two nurses were arrested and accused of injecting some of those patients with life-ending drugs. Five Days at Memorial, the culmination of six years of reporting by Pulitzer Prize winner Sheri Fink, unspools the mystery, bringing us inside a hospital fighting for its life and into the most charged questions in health care: which patients should be prioritized, and can health care professionals ever be excused for hastening death? Transforming our understanding of human nature in crisis, Five Days at Memorial exposes the hidden dilemmas of end-of-life care and reveals how ill-prepared we are for large-scale disasters—and how we can do better.
