Sinopse

The novel revolves around the relationship between Nekhldoff, a Russian landlord, and Máslova, a prostitute whose life took a sharp turn for the worse after Nekhldoff wronged her ten years before the course of the story. After sitting on the jury for a sentencing hearing in which Máslova is charged with poisoning a merchant, Nekhldoff begins to realize the harm he has inflicted on Máslova—as well as the harm inflicted by the Russian state and society on the poor and marginalized—as he embarks on a desire to alleviate Máslova's suffering.

    The Lane Fleming collection of early pistols and revolvers was one of the best in the country. When Fleming was found dead on the floor of his locked gunroom, a Confederate-made Colt-type percussion .36 revolver in his hand, the coroner's verdict was "death by accident." But Gladys Fleming had her doubts. Enough at any rate to engage Colonel Jefferson Davis Rand-better known just as Jeff-private detective and a pistol-collector himself, to catalogue, appraise, and negotiate the sale of her late husband's collection.There were a number of people who had wanted the collection. The question was: had anyone wanted it badly enough to kill Fleming? And if so, how had he done it? Here is a mystery, told against the fascinating background of old guns and gun-collecting, which is rapid-fire without being hysterical, exciting without losing its contact with reason, and which introduces a personable and intelligent new private detective. It is a story that will keep your nerves on a hair trigger even if you don't know the difference between a cased pair of Paterson .34's and a Texas .40 with a ramming-lever.(Summary from the text)

    Immerse yourself in The House of Eve, a stirring tale of family, resilience, and renewal that will inspire your own journey toward purpose. When interior architect Eden “Edee” Collins returns to her childhood home on Atlanta’s Westside, she confronts the ghosts of her past—her mother’s mysterious disappearance and the silent absence of her twin sister. Armed with her design expertise and a fierce determination, Edee unearths hidden journals, deciphers haunting sketches, and enlists old friends to map out long-buried truths.

    On the eve of his greatest triumph, an innocent man is dragged into the shadows of a conspiracy that will forge him into an instrument of absolute vengeance. 
    The year is 1815. Nineteen-year-old Edmond Dantès has it all: the command of a prosperous merchant ship and the heart of the beautiful Mercédès. But his radiant success breeds poisonous envy. Betrayed by three jealous acquaintances—a scheming colleague, a bitter rival in love, and a cowardly bystander—Dantès is falsely accused of treason on his wedding day. Condemned without trial, he is thrown into the inescapable island fortress of the Château d'If. Stripped of his freedom, his love, and his future, Dantès is left to rot in darkness. Yet, an extraordinary encounter in the depths of the dungeon sparks a meticulous plot to escape and claim an unimaginably vast treasure, returning to the world as a wealthy, mysterious count to mete out devastating justice to the men who ruined him. 
    If you crave sweeping epics filled with intricate plotting, high-stakes deception, and romantic tragedy, you will fall in love with this unparalleled Historical Adventure. This gripping audiobook brilliantly weaves tropes of false imprisonment, buried treasure, and the ultimate mastermind's revenge into an atmospheric triumph. Dumas's genius guarantees breathless suspense and unmatched catharsis as Dantès evolves from a naive sailor to the calculating architect of his enemies' doom. 
    About the Author: Alexandre Dumas remains one of the most widely read French authors in history, celebrated for his pioneering contributions to historical romance and serialization.
