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.

    What if you had the chance to rewrite your past—and your future? 
    In The Novelist, Sylvia Blair is a woman on the brink: overworked, undervalued, and haunted by losses she can’t outrun. But when a twist of fate hurls her from 2014 into the electric, unpredictable streets of 1978 Manhattan, she’s given a rare gift: the opportunity to face her past, untangle her present, and reclaim her future. 
    Transported to a world without smartphones but brimming with raw humanity, Sylvia discovers a side of herself she thought was lost—while grappling with the pain and love that have shaped her journey. Can she let go of the regrets that anchor her, or will she remain stuck in a loop of what-ifs? 
    The Novelist is an entertaining, gripping, time-bending audio book about second chances, self-discovery, and the courage to step off the treadmill of life to truly start living.

    “Mixing Romance and Mystery in a Fizzy 1930s Cocktail!” 
    In this seventh book of the series, Clive and Henrietta return to England to find Castle Linley in financial ruin. When Clive’s cousin, Wallace, invites an estate agent in to assess the home’s value, the agent is later found poisoned, throwing all of the Castle’s guests into suspicion. Clive and Henrietta are soon drawn into an investigation, which is slowed by an incompetent local inspector and several unexplained phenomena―the cause of which many, especially the frail Lady Linley, believe to be the workings of the ghost of a hanged maid. 
    Meanwhile, Gunther and Elsie have begun life on a farm in Omaha. Circumstances are difficult, but they are content―until Oldrich Exely appears, proposing an option Elsie finds difficult to ignore. Melody Merriweather, still masquerading as a nun to aid Elsie’s escape, likewise finds it difficult to ignore a letter with tragic news from home, while Julia, on the other hand, receives a very different sort of letter from Glenn Forbes. 
    Back in England, Clive is called away to London on suspicious business, leaving Henrietta to carry on with the investigation alone. When she is mysteriously locked in the study one night, however, things take on a more deadly, supernatural feel, leaving her to fear that Lady Linley's “ghost” might just be real after all…
