Excitement and action will keep you at the edge of your seat. “With “Imagination" anything is possible."
Some time has passed since Mafalda Cinquetti's last adventures. Time that has changed her life considerably. And also time that has made the previously unthinkable conceivable. This story will probably be the first chapter of the new, now third volume, of Mafalda Cinquetti, which will be published in summer 2025. They are therefore both a preview of the new volume and Mafalda's new adventures in Venice, as well as a gentle introduction to the changes she is now facing.Mostra libro
Daniel McEwen's presence has the town on edge—or maybe it's his sharp fangs that have everyone running in the other direction. But when a dead body turns up and it's clearly a setup, Angelica knows she can't hang the vampire out to dry. Aunt Thelma taught her better than that, which is why she’s teaming up with Vance to tackle this case and clear their friend's name. Unfortunately, more than one person wants the truth to remain a secret, and they'll do whatever it takes to keep Angelica and Vance quiet. Can they trace the clues and bring the real killer to justice, or will there be more than one untimely departure this holiday season?Mostra libro
Former Detective Hillary Greene and her cold case team are taking a fresh look at the unsolved murder of Michael Beck, found bludgeoned over the head and dead in a river near his home in 2012. Just twenty-two at the time, he’d recently finished a history degree and had his whole life ahead of him. Everyone said he was a pleasant sort of lad with a passion for the past, quietly living with his parents until he could afford a place of his own. But it quickly turned out that there were at least two people who might have wanted him dead. The first, his recently-jilted girlfriend Mia de Salle, hadn’t taken the break-up well. The second, his former tutor Dr Timothy Durning, had been accused of sexual harassment by Michael. But the original team could find no forensic evidence linking either of their prime suspects to the crime, nor witnesses placing them in the area when Michael was killed. Hillary, however, is determined to find fresh leads. But while she and her team get to work, in the city of Oxford two men from the city’s criminal underbelly have been viciously murdered in the last six months. Are the recent murders and her own cold case linked? More than a decade later, has the same killer struck again? And if so, what’s the connection between the mild-mannered young man and the underworld criminals? It’s up to Hillary to stop a killer getting away with murder — both now and then.Mostra libro

"The Emperor's New Clothes" (Danish: Kejserens nye Klæder) is a short tale written by Danish author Hans Christian Andersen, about two weavers who promise an emperor a new suit of clothes that they say is invisible to those who are unfit for their positions, stupid, or incompetent. When the emperor parades before his subjects in his new clothes, no one dares to say that they don't see any suit of clothes on him for fear that they will be seen as "unfit for their positions, stupid, or incompetent". Finally, a child cries out, "But he isn't wearing anything at all!" The tale has been translated into over 100 languages.Mostra libro
