Sinopse

At the centre of this unusual novel of chapter-long sentences lies an unusual protagonist. The survivor of a near-catastrophic fall, he finds himself possessed by peculiar, residual behaviours, the most peculiar of which is a compulsion to expel every drop of pleasure from his life by filling it with repetitive tasks and activities.
 
When an abnormally large, abnormally cruel red butterfly enters his apartment and torments him to the point of delusion and insomnia, he realizes the only way to free himself from its grip is to leave home for an extended period of time and do what is most abhorrent to him: be among people.
 
Wandering the streets, mistaken for the perpetrator of a violent assault by a compassionate university student who takes him in and seeks to rehabilitate him, he remains entirely and infuriatingly resistant to change.
 
Throughout, like a hurricane of events around a static eye, what an intoxicating ride - what a grand experiment – his story is.

    'A guess that answers every question is not far from being the truth.'
    
    First published in 1923, The Confessions of Arsène Lupin is a collection of ten short stories following the misadventures of the charismatic and clever hero-thief, Arsène Lupin, and his criminal acquaintances.
    
    Featuring daring heists, mischievous disguises and cunning escape plans, The Confessions of Arsène Lupin sees our charming protagonist recount some of his most memorable tales. Told always with wit, candidness and a shade of pride, these remarkable stories see Lupin as a master criminal, lead detective, hopeless romantic and even champion of justice. Including 'Two Hundred Thousand Francs Reward!' in which Lupin offers a reward for the capture of himself, and 'The Invisible Prisoner' where he investigates the case of a man who mysteriously disappeared from a locked room, this brilliantly entertaining collection cements itself as a classic of the crime genre. This audiobook is expertly narrated by Rupert Degas.
    Maurice Leblanc (1864 – 1941) was a French journalist, novelist and short story writer. He was primarily known for inventing the fictional thief Arsène Lupin, often considered the French counterpart to Sherlock Holmes.

    The Handsome Man is a collection of linked stories that follow several years of the life of a young man as he is drawn around the world: from Toronto to Montreal, New York, Ohio, New Mexico, British Columbia, Berlin, Rome, and Northern Ontario, along the way meeting hippies, healers, drinkers, movie stars, old friends, and welcoming strangers. He isn't travelling, however; he's running away. But as far and fast as he runs, the world won't let him disappear, and each new encounter and every lost soul he meets along this journey brings him closer and closer to certain truths he'd locked away: how to trust, how to live in this world, and most of all, how to love again.

    A single bad decision trapped me behind guarded gates until the FBI raids the cult's compound setting me free. I thought the worst was over, little did I know the men who kidnapped me won't stop until I'm dragged back into their cruel world. 
    Witness protection is my only option for a chance at freedom, a chance to start fresh. 
    Then the too attractive to be a US Marshal walks into the courtroom shattering my plans to leave this life behind. 
    After everything I've been through I shouldn't want his touch, the comfort of his protective arms. 
    But I do. 
    And after a steamy kiss neither of us expected, we can't stop wanting more despite the evil hot on our heels. 
    He's years older, arrogant and just as broken as me. 
    Our attraction is undeniable despite knowing it can't last. 
    When I'm called back to the town where it all started we know it's a trap. 
    Though nothing could prepare us for the the lengths the cult will go to drag me back to hell. 
    Guarded by the Marshal is dual POV, standalone romantic suspense. Please note this book has detailed intimate scenes, discussion of past abuse, kidnapping, attempted SA (not by the hero), PTSD, and foul language. Each book can be read as a standalone but is best read in order. 
    If these tropes are your jam then this book is for you: 
    * Found family 
    * Single father 
    * Small town 
    * Witness protection 
    * Woman on the run 
    * 'Teaching' the naive heroine
