Beschreibung

“Even angels have to make a living these days.”
 
With this dry observance Peter Darbyshire introduces us to Cross, a man who has lived thousands of years, though he’d prefer not to have, and who is now hunting angels in a Barcelona filled with tourists, phone cameras and deep mystery. The Mona Lisa Sacrifice is a layered supernatural thriller, filled with history, magic and beloved characters. When an angel promises to deliver Judas, a forgotten god of a forgotten people, to Cross for revenge if he can find the real Mona Lisa, a cascading set of mysteries involving a sisterhood of gorgons, Alice from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Morgana le Fay and renegade angels is set in motion. Everything hangs in the balance. Even the fate of the world.

    Lettice Galbraith is yet another of those mysterious women of British literature of whom little was recorded. 
     
    Lizzie Susan Gibson was born on the 27th January 1859 in Kingston-Upon-Hull in Yorkshire into a comfortable middle-class family. 
     
    Her education was primarily private but at fifteen her father died, and life became rather different. 
     
    After several years in London, she moved with her mother to Reigate in Surrey.   
     
    In 1885 she published her first story anonymously and her pseudonym ‘Lettice Galbraith’ only appeared from late 1892. 
     
    Although her canon of works is small, she mainly achieved her reputation on a single volume of ghost and supernatural stories entitled ‘New Ghost Stories’. 
     
    After her mother’s death in 1901 she moved to London and continued to write, this time moving on from the short story to the novel, as well as reverting to her given name. 
     
    For the last two decades of her life, she did not continue her literary career. 
     
    Lettice Galbraith died on 8th July 1932 at Downe, then in Kent.  She was 73

    The bloodthirsty creatures invading the rest of the world are now spreading across America. Pocket communities wait to receive the latest intelligence or an order to fight. 
    Former infantryman Eugene and his wife Angie leave home to live with their daughter in The Fortress, a community with a constant rotation of armed guards and a curfew for the vulnerable or those not on patrol. 
    Messengers from the military have disappeared, so mail carriers deliver the latest news and rumors, which can only be described as dire. 
    To keep the figurative bricks of The Fortress fortified, Eugene and Angie must venture beyond its protection one final time to ensure that their daughter and her unborn child remain safe. 
    Their old neighborhood houses a legacy worth fighting for, but given the state of the human race, mysterious creatures spawning out of nowhere isn’t what worries Eugene most.
