Sinopsis

With Prohibition finally over, Anna Bergstrom finds herself in charge of the most precious element of her family’s Christmas: the Kentucky bourbon from her late grandmother’s home town. Without it, she and her cousins will never succeed at recreating her recipe before the details never written down are lost for good.
 
But when the challenge of driving home on icy roads becomes a rescue of a stranded fellow motorist, Anna gets far more than she bargained for.  
 
The motorist in question may just be the handsomest man she’s ever set eyes on. But the trouble he brings with him threatens to overwhelm her.
 
Luckily, she always has family to call on.
 
“First the Fruitcake,” an historical, romantic story of kidnaping gone wrong and fruitcake made right.
Disponible desde: 17/11/2024.

    The Mistake of the Machine is a short story by Gilbert Keith Chesterton: Flambeau and his friend the priest were sitting in the Temple Gardens about sunset; and their neighbourhood or some such accidental influence had turned their talk to matters of legal process. From the problem of the licence in cross-examination, their talk strayed to Roman and mediaeval torture, to the examining magistrate in France and the Third Degree in America.

    He was just the caretaker, the quiet young man who kept the grounds of the exclusive, gated community pristine. Owen Collins liked the solitude, the predictable rhythm of his work, and the distance it kept between him and the wealthy residents of The Pines. That fragile peace shatters one foggy morning when he discovers the body of a prominent resident floating in the community’s ornamental lake, a discovery that makes him the first person of interest in a sudden, violent death. 
    As the police, led by the relentlessly skeptical Detective James Carter, circle closer, Owen’s own past begins to surface in whispered rumors and pointed questions. The idyllic neighborhood reveals itself as a web of hidden affairs, bitter rivalries, and dangerous secrets, with several residents having clear motives for murder. Someone is watching Owen’s every move, leaving subtle threats among his tools and manipulating evidence to frame him for the crime he stumbled upon. 
    Trapped in a tightening noose of suspicion, Owen must untangle the truth behind the killing to save himself. To clear his name, he is forced to investigate the very people who employ him, digging into lives of polished perfection to expose the rot beneath. In a place where everyone has something to hide, finding the real killer means confronting the terrifying possibility that he was chosen to find the body for a reason.
