This week's tempting literary buffet includes:

* Change of Heart by Jodi Picoult (Atria, $26.95). Prolific issues-driven author this time takes on capital punishment, religion and organ donation.
* The Ancient by R. A. Salvatore (Tor, $25.95). Continues the fantasy world created in 2004's The Highwayman.
* Christ the Lord: The Road to Cana by Anne Rice. Ms. delighted her fans this week by saying that the Vampire Lestat isn't dead, after all, and he'll be making a future book appearance. Not here, though -- this is Ms. Rice's second book in her series on the life of Christ.
* Dead Time by Stephen R. White (Dutton, $25.95). Colorado psychologist Dr. Alan Gregory solves another mystery.
* Lush Life by Richard Price (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, $26). Clockers' author turns his eye on Manhattan's Lower East Side, in a novel centering around a seemingly random shooting.
* A Prisoner of Birth by Jeffrey Archer (St. Martin's, $27.95). A modern update of The Count of Monte Cristo.
* The Girl Who Stopped Swimming by Joshilyn Jackson (Grand Central, $23.99). Follows a Southern family after a young girl's body is discovered in its pool.
* Standing Tall: A Memoir of Tragedy and Triumph by C. Vivian Stringer and Laura Tucker (Crown, $24.95). Memoirs of the coach of the Rutgers women's basketball team.
