Synopsis

A man’s death in the Smoky Mountains raises the suspicions of his estranged wife in this suspenseful novel by a New York Times–bestselling author.   Vietnam veteran David Hallam is in Tennessee working as an arson investigator for an insurance company when he sends his wife, Karen, an unnerving note: “If anything happens to me down here, don’t let it pass as an accident . . .” Ten days later, he dies in a fire and the only thing Karen can feel is guilt—for all the years she wasted in an unsalvageable marriage and for the relief she feels at finally having the sadistic and abusive man out of her life. But despite all that transpired between them, Karen leaves New York City for Belle Isle, in the heart of the Smoky Mountains, to bury her husband.   Once there, Karen can finally put the past to rest—or so she thinks. Instead, she is drawn into a tangled and deadly web of disputed fortune, family jealousy, conspiracy, adultery, and murder.   A New York Times–bestselling author and recipient of the Edgar and Agatha Awards, “Phyllis Whitney is, and always will be, the Grand Master of her craft” (Barbara Michaels).  This ebook features an illustrated biography of Phyllis A. Whitney including rare images from the author’s estate.

    Philippe Meunier se disait que son subconscient lui jouait des tours ; que la fatigue conjuguée à la vague ressemblance de quelqu’un se rendant au troisième le mettait dans l’erreur. C’était à cet étage-là que vivait encore le pauvre Émile, emmuré dans la tristesse de son veuvage… 
    Qu’est-ce que signifiait ce micmac ? Pourquoi Henriette hantait-elle soudainement l’immeuble de ses va-et-vient incessants ? 
    Le petit immeuble situé 16 rue des Clarisses renfermait décidément bien des secrets. 
     
    Avec Anamorphose, Charlène Mauwls adopte le style de la littérature policière du 19ème siècle qui lui permet de mettre en mots la vie quotidienne de ses personnages, et nous plonge dans l’univers Hitchcockien des habitants de cet immeuble avec lesquels l’agent d’assurances Philippe Meunier a tissé des liens étroits.  
    Le suspense monte à chaque étage, et la psychose gagne…. mais oui… pourquoi n’avait-il pas fait le rapprochement quand la réponse était là sous ses yeux ?

    A voyage of the Damned. 
    The annual blessing of the fishing fleet is more than a ceremony, it provides God's protection from the demons of the sea. But Captain John Boston has no time for God and holy sanctions. The church has betrayed him, with the local priest refusing to protect his sister from a violent husband, and Boston's wife is seriously ill. 
    The trawler hasn't had much luck this season and people are whispering that God has indeed turned his gaze from John Boston too, because he didn't accept the priest's traditional blessing. Now the boat is sailing one last time to try and fill its holds with fish. There's more than a mysterious fog, bad weather, and empty nets waiting for them. 
    The devil has a boat of his own and he's out on the cold ocean, trawling for dead men and their souls.
