Absent of ambition a great cup of coffee, a warm fire, a good book and a life without conflict was all that he desired, but he had a talent for attracting trouble and unraveling problems and fate had different plans as it had so often in the past. A simple commission to authenticate an antique to supplement his cash starved business would shatter his tranquility and lead to death on his doorstep. At the center of the mystery is a wealthy, dysfunctional family in the entitled hunt country of western New Jersey. Everywhere he turns there are labyrinths of suspects, motives and ultimately death.

Book Synopsis Martyrdom, Murder, and Magic by : Patricia Healy Wasyliw
Download or read book Martyrdom, Murder, and Magic written by Patricia Healy Wasyliw and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2008 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Martyrdom, Murder, and Magic: Child Saints and Their Cults in Medieval Europe is a comprehensive history of child saints and their cults from late Antiquity to the end of the fifteenth century. The child martyrs of the persecutions, including the Holy Innocents, were the first child saints recognized by the Church and their cults spread throughout Europe in the early Middle Ages. Alongside these cults, medieval society also venerated child «martyrs», victims of political or domestic violence. The increasing role of the papacy in the canonization process after the tenth century resulted in the veneration of saintly child confessors in the high Middle Ages, but from the end of the twelfth century, most children worshipped as saints were the alleged victims of ritual murder by Jews. This book considers the formation and transformation of child saints and their cults in the context of popular belief and the history of childhood.

Book Synopsis Fadó Fadó by : Rónán Gearóid Ó Domhnaill
Download or read book Fadó Fadó written by Rónán Gearóid Ó Domhnaill and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2015-04-28 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A long, long time ago… Fadó Fadó: More Tales of Lesser Known Irish History is the sequel to Fadó: Tales of Lesser Known Irish History (Matador, 2013). It reveals more episodes from Irish history throughout the ages. The Irish abroad are not neglected in this collection of tales, many of which are not widely known or have been long forgotten about. The author makes no attempt to heroise or demonise the figures, though some of the characters do not deserve the obscurity to which the passage of time has condemned them, while others are probably best forgotten. Their stories illustrate the rich tapestry that forms Irish history… Who was the walking gallows of Wicklow? What was it about a cave in Donegal that attracted visitors from all over Europe? What happened to the priest who evoked the ire of the Irish government? How did an Irish civil servant defy the Nazis at a time when appeasement was popular? Whose corpse in Galway created wonder and fear? Why did a Monaghan man eat his fellow convicts? And how did a Dublin woman try to assassinate Mussolini? Laid out in chapters long enough to cover what is important and still retain the reader’s interest, this book can be started from anywhere. Just like its prequel, Fadó Fadó is a must-have book for anyone interested in Irish history.
