This book was released on 2016-10-01 with total page 755 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three Albert Campion mysteries in one volume reveal why “Margery Allingham stands out like a shining light” (Agatha Christie). Flowers for the Judge Scandal hits the prestigious publishing house of Barnabas when one of the directors is found dead in a locked cellar. All eyes are on the other partners at the firm—cousins of the dead man with much to gain from his demise—and rumors hint at a connection to the long-ago disappearance of another director. Desperate to salvage their reputation, the cousins turn to Albert Campion—but will his investigations clear the Barnabas family name, or besmirch it forever? “One of her best . . . vivid and witty.” —The New York Times Death of a Ghost John Sebastian Lafcadio’s ambition to be known as the greatest painter since Rembrandt was not to be thwarted by a matter as trifling as his own death. A set of twelve sealed paintings is left in the hands of his widow, together with the instruction that she unveil one canvas each year before a carefully selected audience. Albert Campion is invited to join a cast of gadabouts, muses, and socialites to witness the eighth unveiling—but instead the lights go down and a young man is stabbed to death. Campion must get to work on the baffling case, with its long—suspiciously long—line-up of possible killers, and soon finds himself having to face his dearest enemy. “Wonderfully plotted . . . Allingham was a rare and precious talent.” —The Washington Post The Case of the Late Pig Private detective Albert Campion is summoned to the village of Kepesake to investigate a particularly distasteful death. The body turns out to be that of Pig Peters—freshly killed five months after his own funeral. Soon other corpses start to turn up, just as Peters’s body goes missing. It takes all of Campion’s coolly incisive powers of detection to unravel the crime. Mixing high drama and pitch-perfect black comedy, The Case of the Late Pig is, uniquely, narrated by Campion himself. “Allingham captures her quintessential quiet detective Albert Campion to perfection.”—Daily Express
Book Synopsis The Spooky Ghost School by : AQEEL AHMED
Download or read book The Spooky Ghost School written by AQEEL AHMED and published by AQEEL AHMED. This book was released on 2023-09-20 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The charming children's book "Sammy the Friendly Ghost and the Spooky Ghost School" takes place in Whispering Pines, where a nice ghost named Sammy lives. Sammy is a nice person who likes to meet new people and spread happiness among the living. One day, he hears older ghosts talking about a strange place called the Spooky Ghost School, which attracts his attention. Sammy's eagerness to learn takes him on an incredible trip to the Spooky Ghost School. When he gets there, he is met by a big, scary mansion made of moonlight that is see-through. Inside, he finds a world where ghosts go to school and meets other ghosts of different sizes and shapes who are also getting better at being ghosts. One of these new friends is Bella, a friendly ghost who greets Sammy and shows him around the school. Sammy says he wants to learn how to scare people, so Bella tells him that the Spooky Ghost School is the best place for him to do that. Sammy starts his training under Bella's watch, and he quickly learns how to float through walls, make things move, and make scary noises. The other ghosts are gentle and supportive, which helps Sammy get better at what he does. Sammy's favorite thing about school is making spirit friends like Casper, Lily, and Timmy, who all have their own skills and traits. One night, Bella thinks it would be fun to have a contest to see who can scare the living the most. Sammy decides that instead of making the living afraid of him, he will surprise and amuse them. Sammy's touching act during the competition, in which he surprised a little girl with a bouquet of ghostly moonlight flowers, steals the show. His performance makes the judges feel good and reinforces their belief that kindness and hope are the most amazing ghostly illusions. Sammy's win is a turning point for the Spooky Ghost School. It shows how important kind acts and spooky unity are. Sammy's friendly personality keeps drawing in the live people of Whispering Pines, making him the friendliest ghost in town. He goes back to the Spooky Ghost School often to share his special skills and bring happiness to both the living and the dead. Sammy's story tells us that even though the world is full of ghosts and scary things, kindness and friendship are the best and most lasting magic of all. His memory lives on in the minds of everyone who knew him and brings love, laughter, and eternal joy to Whispering Pines. Here's how the story starts: Everyone knew that Sammy was a nice and helpful ghost who lived in Whispering Pines, a beautiful town that seemed to be stuck in twilight forever. Sammy wasn't like any other ghost. To say he was unique would be an insult. His ghostly nature gave off a nice feeling, which made him a respected figure among the people who lived in Whispering Pines. Sammy's ethereal life was focused on one positive goal: linking with the living and bringing happiness to them like stardust. Every night when there was a full moon, he would come out of the ethereal world, his translucent body shining with an extraordinary light that made the night's chill seem like nothing. Sammy's eyes sparkled with mischief, and his constant grin was both peaceful and mysterious. On one of these lovely nights, as Sammy slid easily through Whispering Pines, fate told him something interesting. He heard older, more experienced ghosts meeting in secret while he was floating near the shady eaves of an old oak tree. Their voices sounded like they were coming from a long time ago because of how old and worn they sounded. Their ghostly figures moved softly, and the spiritual light that surrounded them danced to the beat of their stories. Their talk, which was full of ghostly secrets, was mostly about a place that made Sammy's spine shiver: the famous Spooky Ghost School. Even just mentioning this mysterious place seemed to bring up an uneasy feeling that hung in the air like a spell. Sammy was mesmerized as the older ghosts told stories and whispered secrets about the cool school. It was said to be a place where ghosts and other magical things got together to work on their skills and figure out how to do their jobs. Sammy's spirit heart was both scared and excited about what was going to happen. How old are the walls of this Spooky Ghost School? What tales do they hold? What secrets and wonders did it hold for those who were brave enough to walk through its ghostly gates? As Sammy listened to every whispered word and story about the Spooky Ghost School, he felt a strong pull toward this land he had never seen. His never-ending spirit of adventure made him want to know more and more. This made his interest shine brighter than the moon, which was the only light on his path. He knew with all of his soul that he had to start on this wonderful journey. Sammy's life as a friendly ghost has always been marked by his never-ending thirst for knowledge and his never-ending need for company. It looked like fate had added a new thread to the fabric of his ghostly life, leading him into the unknown. Sammy's trip to the Spooky Ghost School started under the watchful eyes of the moon and the bright stars. He didn't know that this way would lead him to a world beyond the veil of the living, where scary secrets and ghostly wonders awaited him. Every night, Sammy's transparent body floated closer to the school's huge gates. He could feel the tendrils of fate wrapping around him and tying him to the strange place that held the key to the world's haunting secrets. Sammy asked himself, "The Spooky Ghost School?" His ghostly voice was hard to hear over the rustling of the stars. His ghostly form floated in the stillness of the night, bathed in the pale, silvery light of the moon that ran through the canopy of Whispering Pines' whispering trees. As he thought about the mysterious word, a strange light danced in his ghostly eyes, like two circles of moonlight. His airy hand could only touch the threads of interest that entangled his own existence, but he reached out as if to touch the idea that had formed in the night air. It was a name that was wrapped in mystery, a riddle that called with a strong pull. Sammy had a golden heart and was known for being very curious and always wanting to make friends with living people. He'd spent a lot of starry nights making people in Whispering Pines happy, his happy personality a bright spot in the town's creepy darkness. Still, just the thought of the Spooky Ghost School made him more interested than even his constant ghostly grin. Sammy couldn't help but wonder what secrets were behind the big gates of the Spooky Ghost School as he floated there, listening to the crickets and the wind. In its abstract form, the name made me think of a cold but exciting feeling, like the touch of cold air on a winter night. What was this place, and how come he had never heard of it? Thoughts like ghostly wraiths flew through his phantom mind, and the more he thought about it, the greater the pull toward the unknown became. It was a pull on his spirit existence that made him want to go into parts of the otherworldly he hadn't seen yet. Sammy made a secret promise to himself at that moment, a promise that would lead him on an amazing trip into the heart of the Spooky Ghost School. He had no idea that this choice would lead him on an adventure that would show him not only the secrets of the ghost business, but also how good he was at being a ghost himself. The Spooky Ghost School was waiting for him, shrouded in mystery, and steeped in magic. While the moon continued to watch over Whispering Pines from the sky, Sammy's ghostly form began its trip into the unknown, led by whispers of the mysterious school's name. The Spooky Ghost School was a place with a lot of history and mystery. It was hidden somewhere in the ethereal areas, beyond the living world. Few ghosts knew it existed, and even the most experienced ghosts shivered when they heard its name whispered. The school's history had been lost to time, and its beauty was covered by layers of phantom magic. The school was a large, impressive mansion made of moonlight and starlight. It was in a spectral dimension that linked to the mortal realm. Its design was a strange mix of Gothic towers and Victorian elegance, and the walls sparkled like mist. The huge gates were made of airy iron, and the beautiful writing on them seemed to move and change with every ghostly breeze.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An artist’s legacy lives on—through murder in this Albert Campion mystery masterpiece from “one of the finest Golden-Age crime novelists” (The Sunday Telegraph). To vex his rival from the grave, a famous artist has left twelve paintings to be sold after his death. Each year, one painting is revealed to kick off London’s art season. But this release party—bringing family, friends, critics, and collectors together—devolves into scandal. A power outage leaves everyone in the dark, and when the lights come back on, a man lies dead—stabbed through the heart with bejeweled scissors. Family friend Albert Campion is present during the deadly crime. The too obvious suspect is the artist’s granddaughter, Linda Lafcadio, who was engaged to the victim until he brought back a model from Italy and married her. Linda didn’t take his suggestion of a ménage à trois well, to say the least. But was she angry enough to kill him? Campion thinks not. He’s actually quite sure he knows who did the dastardly deed, but there’s no evidence to prove it. And though he’s one step behind a diabolical killer, Campion just might be next on the list of victims . . . “Uncommon merit in every direction . . . honestly, you can’t go wrong with Death of a Ghost.” —Boston Evening Transcript Praise for Margery Allingham “Margery Allingham stands out like a shining light.” —Agatha Christie “The best of mystery writers.” —The New Yorker “Allingham was a rare and precious talent.” —The Washington Post “Don’t start reading these books unless you are confident that you can handle addiction.” —The Independent

Download or read book Chasing the Ghost written by Peter Marren and published by Random House. This book was released on 2018-03-15 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: **ONE OF THE GUARDIAN’S BEST BOOKS OF 2018** Join renowned naturalist Peter Marren on an exciting quest to see every species of wild plant native to Britain. The mysterious Ghost Orchid blooms in near darkness among rotting leaves on the forest floor. It blends into the background to the point of invisibility, yet glows, pale and ghostly. The ultimate grail of flower hunters, it has been spotted only once in the past twenty-five years. Its few flowers have a deathly pallor and are said to smell of over-ripe bananas. Peter Marren has been a devoted flower finder all his life. While the Ghost Orchid offers the toughest challenge of any wild plant, there were fifty more British species Peter had yet to see, having ticked off the first 1,400 rummaging in hedges, slipping down gullies and peering in peat bogs. But he set himself the goal of finding the remaining fifty in a single summer. As it turned out, the wettest summer in years. This expert and emotional journey takes Peter the length and the breadth of the British Isles, from the dripping ancient woods of the New Forest to the storm-lashed cliffs of Sutherland. He paddles in lakes, clambers up cliffs in mist and rain, and walks several hundred miles, but does he manage to find them all? Partly about plants, partly autobiography, Chasing the Ghost is also a reminder that to engage with wild flowers, all we need to do is look around us and enjoy what we see. Praise for Chasing the Ghost: ‘Peter Marren is the unsung hero of Britain’s nature writers’ Stephen Moss, author of Dynasties ‘Jolly, quixotic and ends with real poignancy’ Guardian ‘A poignant reminder to us all to engage with the wild flowers that grow around us’ i Newspaper

Book Synopsis Dictionary of Southern Appalachian English by : Michael B. Montgomery
Download or read book Dictionary of Southern Appalachian English written by Michael B. Montgomery and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2021-06-22 with total page 3218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dictionary of Southern Appalachian English is a revised and expanded edition of the Weatherford Award–winning Dictionary of Smoky Mountain English, published in 2005 and known in Appalachian studies circles as the most comprehensive reference work dedicated to Appalachian vernacular and linguistic practice. Editors Michael B. Montgomery and Jennifer K. N. Heinmiller document the variety of English used in parts of eight states, ranging from West Virginia to Georgia—an expansion of the first edition's geography, which was limited primarily to North Carolina and Tennessee—and include over 10,000 entries drawn from over 2,200 sources. The entries include approximately 35,000 citations to provide the reader with historical context, meaning, and usage. Around 1,600 of those examples are from letters written by Civil War soldiers and their family members, and another 4,000 are taken from regional oral history recordings. Decades in the making, the Dictionary of Southern Appalachian English surpasses the original by thousands of entries. There is no work of this magnitude available that so completely illustrates the rich language of the Smoky Mountains and Southern Appalachia.
