On the night she arrives, a young girl is murdered, a horrific crime that eerily mirrors another from Kate's childhood. Three decades earlier, her misfit friend Del, shunned and derided by her classmates as "the potato girl", was brutally slain. Del's killer was never found, and Del achieved immortality in local legends and ghost stories. Now, as the new murder investigation draws Kate irresistibly in, her past and present collide in terrifying and unexpected ways. But nothing is quite what it seems - and the grim spectres of her childhood are far from forgotten.

Download PDF or read online The Mysteries of Udolpho Book by Ann Radcliffe and published by Passerino Editore. This book was released on 2021-03-17 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt/synopsis : The Mysteries of Udolpho, by Ann Radcliffe, appeared in four volumes on 8 May 1794 from G. G. and J. Robinson of London. Her fourth and most popular novel, The Mysteries of Udolpho tells of Emily St. Aubert, who suffers misadventures that include the death of her mother and father, supernatural terrors in a gloomy castle, and machinations of an Italian brigand. Often cited as the archetypal Gothic novel, The Mysteries of Udolpho appears prominently in Jane Austen's 1817 novel Northanger Abbey, where an impressionable young woman reader comes to see friends and acquaintances as Gothic villains and victims, with amusing results. Ann Radcliffe (née Ward; 9 July 1764 – 7 February 1823) was an English author and a pioneer of Gothic fiction. Her technique of explaining apparently supernatural elements in her novels has been credited with gaining Gothic fiction respectability in the 1790s. Radcliffe was the most popular writer of her day and almost universally admired; contemporary critics called her the mighty enchantress and the Shakespeare of romance-writers, and her popularity continued through the 19th century. Interest has revived in the early 21st century, with the publication of three biographies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt/synopsis : How do wives of prominent men respond when their husbands' careers are threatened? Will they shed ethical and moral values to protect their men and luxurious life-styles? For twenty-five years Diane, a physician's wife, monitored the behavior of doctors and their wives. In this small provincial southern town, any hint of an inappropriate liaison or a possible ominous event that might tarnish the reputation of a doctor, Diane and her two close friends, always quietly devised plans to set matters right. Diane set standards of conduct for the common good of all. At the first hint of a dark rumor, she responded wisely and she was brave. A physician, Antoine Oliveir and his wife Shelly, hoping to improve their lives, arrived from the Dominican Republic to take up residence in Diane's town. Soon, two diverse cultures clashed, eliciting a chaotic response within the medical community. Traditionally, Latinos only served as maids and waiters in this town. Shelly, the daughter of a wealthy and powerful Dominican general, responded with outrage to perceived ethnic prejudices. Dr. Oliveir, his credentials questioned, uncovers the vulnerable underbelly of this tight-knit society, giving him the means to expose scandals that would downgrade the status of the husbands of Diane and her friends. During Diane's college days, while majoring in political science, she discovered a kindred spirit in a 16th Century book written by the famous philosopher, Machiavelli. He wrote, " - be on guard lest some foreigner equal in power should enter your city --." Even though Machiavelli loved his culture more than his soul, Diane's obsessive admiration for him, guides her in developing a master plan to rid her community of the troublesome Oliveirs. Diane is successful, however, the consequences are deadly.
