Sinossi

The ruthless businessman left to drown by the rising tide at the dock by Reykjavík's Grótta lighthouse had never been short of enemies. The police have their suspect, and he calls in Stella Blómkvist to fight his corner as he furiously protests his innocence. Yet this angry fisherman had more reason than many to bear the dead man a grudge.
It's a busy summer for razor-tongued, no-nonsense lawyer Stella. A young woman looking for a long-lost parent finds more than she bargained for. An old adversary calls from prison, looking for Stella to broker a dangerous deal with the police to put one of the city's untouchable crime lords behind bars at long last.  Is the mysterious medium right, warning that deep waters are waiting for Stella as well?  'Stella is a force of nature' – Mark Sanderson, The Times
It's trademark Stella Blómkvist, a tightly-plotted triple-decker rollercoaster of murder, revenge, betrayal – and the unexpected.

    A disgruntled bear fiancé. A wanted familiar. A hairless cat named Lonnie. For Hazel Kinsey, it's just another day in Paradise Falls. 
     
     
     
    When Hazel's familiar Tizzy the Squirrel fell in love with another familiar, they had no idea her furry pal would gain witch magic. 
     
     
     
    Apparently, that's a big no-no for the High Familiar Clowder, the council who rules all familiars. When the Clowder shows up in Paradise Falls to decommission Tizzy and send her to the in-between, Haze defies the stick-in-the-butt jerkfaces by refusing to trade in Tiz for a new familiar. 
     
     
     
    But the Clowder means business. They strip Hazel of her magic, leaving her no better than a human. Worst of all, she's lost the mating scent she shared with her bear-beau, the hunky-handsome Ford Baylor. Without it or her witch powers, she can never be a real mate for him. 
     
     
     
    With only seventy-two hours to find a solution to her familiar and fiancé problems, Hazel and pals must find a way to stop the Clowder, get Hazel witchified again, save Tizzy and her true love, and oh yeah, battle sinister forces intent on glomming as much power as possible. 
     
     
     
    Yep. Just another day in Paradise Falls.

    "The House of the Vampire" by George Sylvester Viereck is a pioneering work of vampire fiction that blends psychological intrigue with supernatural horror. The story follows Reginald Clarke, a charismatic yet sinister intellectual who preys on the creative energy and vitality of those around him. As his newest protégé becomes entangled in his dark world, themes of exploitation, obsession, and moral ambiguity come to the fore. Viereck reimagines the vampire mythos as a metaphor for emotional and artistic manipulation, offering a chilling exploration of human vulnerability. With its atmospheric prose and philosophical undertones, this novella stands as an innovative precursor to modern vampire tales, blending gothic suspense with introspective depth.
