Sinopsis

When fifteen year old Joel Penberthy sees a white hare being pursued by a black dog, he knows exactly what it means. Every Cornishman knows that the white hare, pursued by a black dog, portends disaster. For Joel it means a catastrophe threatens the eighteenth century mine where he works. But he can never imagine how this will turn his own life upside down, threatening his very existence in his own time. Nor does he guess how it will find him new, amazing friends in today's world, and a future that he could never have dreamt of.John Kitchen was born and grew up in Cornwall. He returns to these roots in Mine-Shift, which is his fourth book to explore less familiar aspects of the supernatural. His first novel, Nicola’s Ghost, won the Writer’ Digest Award for best Young Adult Novel in 2011. Mine-Shift is his second ‘time-shift’ novel to be set in Cornwall. John writes his stories in a bright yellow studio in his four-hundred-year-old cottage in Oxfordshire. His wife died in 1995, but he has a daughter and a son, and four amazing grandchildren.

    I was never supposed to inherit the De Luca empire. That was my brother's role. Until he died, and my father made it clear he wished it had been me instead. Now, I'm nothing more than a pawn in his power plays. His latest demand? Marry a woman of his choosing and secure an alliance I want no part of. I don't take orders. Not from my father. Not from anyone. 
     
    So when I find Cece Sutton dancing in a club, trying to pay off a debt she'll never escape, I make a decision I have no right to make. I buy her freedom. And then, I make her mine. 
     
    It's not about saving her. It's about control. About shutting my father out of my life for good. A forced marriage. A debt repaid. A deal neither of us wanted. 
     
    She hates me for it. I don't blame her. Cece is all sharp edges and defiance, a woman who refuses to bow, even when she's trapped. I tell myself she's nothing more than a means to an end. That the way I watch her—the way I crave her—means nothing. It's a lie. A dirty, dirty lie. 
     
    I thought the most dangerous thing in my life was my father. I was wrong. 
     
    It's her. It's us. It's the way she makes me want something I was never meant to have. Something real. 
     
    Contains mature themes.

    Under the Redwoods by Bret Harte evokes the grandeur and mystery of California’s redwood forests and the diverse communities that lived among them. The story weaves together tales of early settlers, Native Americans, Spanish missionaries, and gold seekers, blending history, myth, and local legend. Rich in atmosphere and regional color, the stories explore themes of love, loss, identity, and the clash of cultures in the American West. With Harte’s signature blend of sentiment, irony, and vivid storytelling, this lesser-known work offers a nostalgic and often poignant glimpse into a vanishing world beneath the towering trees—where romance, fate, and memory intertwine in the shadows of the ancient forest.
