Sinossi

Margery Allingham's book "Black'erchief Dick" was nearly lost through the ages. Written by the author when she was just eighteen years old, she quickly dropped the manuscript with publishers so she could continue working on other endeavors. Through the hard work of literary scholars and lovers, however, it was salvaged and is once again available to readers who wish to read this early 20th century novel. Though there are some themes that would, today, be considered politically incorrect, the book offers an interesting glance into the society that once was.

    Two's company, three's a crowd--and sometimes it's more than that.
    In The Third Person, a collection of uncanny short stories by Emily Anglin, a sequence of tense professional and personal negotiations between two people is complicated when a third person arrives. Within these triangulated microworlds, disorienting gaps open up between words and reality: employees dissolve from job titles, neighbours overstep comfortable boundaries, voices distanced by space or time make their presence felt. Uneasiness builds among these separate but entangled lives.
    
    Anglin's darkly humorous stories contemplate situations in which characters refashion themselves to fit a new competitive milieu. The Third Person reveals how people can become complicit in these milieus, even desire them, often while being led into the loneliness they can instil.

    Vodou Child - A Jerry Snyder Novel

    An evil spirit murdered a two-bit hustler preacher on French St. Martin. At least, that’s what a conspiracy obsessed Vodou priest would have Jerry Snyder and DJ Martin believe, when they’re called in to investigate the preacher’s stabbing and the kidnapping of his underage girlfriend. 
    To a seasoned investigator like Jerry, a murderous spirit seems… far fetched. For starters, a laundry list of locals were swindled by the preacher, and no matter how vengeful a ghost may become, Jerry knows that without a physical body, it’s impossible to hold a knife. 
    But, as Jerry and DJ methodically work the case, neither man can shake the feeling that something wicked is chasing them through the dark alleys and secret churches of St. Martin. Whatever it is, Jerry has to find a way to shake it off and get the job done, because there’s still a kidnapped girl to be saved.
