A lady desperately seeking freedom. A prosperous younger man. An unexpected connection. Anna Atwood returns to Breckenridge, where she spent one blissful summer as a young woman. This time, though, she comes to the quaint town as a penniless spinster with a single hope: to build a life free from the constraints her father’s death put on her and free from the persistent suitor Mr. Green, whose plans for marriage are Anna’s worst nightmare. When she runs into David Tate, the boy she knew from that memorable summer, she finds he has grown into a confident and striking man. As they rekindle their friendship, David offers her warmth and protection in the moment she needs it most—when Mr. Green appears in town and threatens to destroy Anna’s carefully laid plans. David Tate remembers Anna as the spirited woman who once brought light into his dark childhood. Now a man of means, he has a promising future, if he can withstand the powerful Lord Murphy—a man whose menacing hold on the town he owns is surpassed only by his relentless hold on David’s life. When David meets Anna again, he realizes he has a chance to save her from Mr. Green’s schemes, even if it means putting David in danger of Lord Murphy’s wrath and revealing David’s deepest secrets. In a moment of desperation, David and Anna agree to a proposal of convenience to provide the safety they both need. But as their attraction ignites, the looming dangers from Lord Murphy and Mr. Green threaten to destroy their budding happiness.Mostra libro

Join David and his friends and family for the next installment in the After Cilmeri series! Last we heard from David, he'd allowed George to abduct him at the behest of the CIA, for the stated purpose of forcing him to time travel between Earth Two and Avalon. Meanwhile, Lili and the refugees from Paris were floating down the River Seine, making for the English Channel. And King Philippe was blithely reconstituting his government, unaware that the battle of wills between him and David hadn't really ended the way he thought. And that, in fact, it hadn't even ended. David and his companions have pulled off the heist of the millennium. But as David encounters the unexpected in Avalon, and Lili and the refugees face danger at every bend in the river, they must accept the hard truth that the best laid plans go awry at the moment of contact with the enemy.

On the remote marshes of rural England, newlyweds Jack and Laura believe they’ve found their dream cottage — a place of roses, quiet sunsets, and creative work. But beneath the ivy and charm lies a history far older and far darker than either of them suspects. When their housekeeper abruptly quits just days before Halloween, she leaves behind a chilling warning: On All Saints’ Eve, the man-size marble effigies in the local church are said to rise… and walk. Jack laughs it off. Laura tries to. But as the night of October 31st unfolds, a strange hush settles over the countryside, shadows shift in ancient aisles, and the past steps forward — cold, deliberate, and unstoppable. E. Nesbit’s Man-Size in Marble is a haunting classic of Victorian ghost fiction — a tale of love, folklore, superstition, and the terrible price of disbelief. Narrated with atmospheric depth by Miguel Khoury, this chilling story still hits with the same cold grip it had over a century ago. A perfect listen for fans of M. R. James, Algernon Blackwood, and classic supernatural horror.Mostra libro
