Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emma felt herself perspiring, dizzy, her heart pounding as she was dragged along. She stumbled, blind with the covering over her head, not sure what her footing was nor where she was being taken. Desperately trying to take note of her surroundings, she counted twenty footsteps, then felt something hard underfoot as the hands grasping her arms shoved her in an abrupt turn to the left. That meant they had left the gallery where the Piero della Francescas were displayed for the corridor. Her entire body trembled with fright. Alice Heard Williams has done it again! The heroine of Pensione Anastasia, American Emma Darling, now an art history teacher at a girls school in London, leads her students to Tuscany to follow the Piero Trail looking at paintings by Piero della Francesca. They quickly become witnesses to an art heist, kidnapping and threats of bodily harm. Emma almost loses her heart to the charming brown-eyed Italian Inspector Luigi Rovere, but her friend Dr. Sam MacGregor arrives from Scotland to restore calm and balance along with help in recovery of the missing masterpiece. A must read for those who love mystery and art and have been captured by the response to great paintings in Alice Heard Williams previous works.

Download or read book Tracking The Carpaccio written by Alice Heard Williams and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-02-02 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A painting by the Renaissance artist Carpaccio has disappeared from the collection of the late Lord William Elmley, an Englishman who lived in Venice for many years, and the engaging American art historian Emma Darling is determined to find it. Art thieves come sniffing and a battle of wills ensues. Emma’s new friends Riccardo and Vittoria struggle with her to discover and protect the missing masterpiece. Led by Venice Police Inspector Luigi Dario and aided by Dr. Sam McGregor, she struggles, her bravery sorely tested. Follow her and her companions as they visit the Lido, Venice’s island of beaches, the artisan haven of Dorsoduro, raucous open-air markets of the Rialto, and the sleepy island of Torcello—all in search of the painting. As surely as the gondolas skim the Grand Canal, this gripping book will keep you at the edge of your seat as suspense proliferates with each flip of the page. Comments "Emma has replaced Miss Marple in my life! Good for you, Alice!" — Charlotte Jacobs, California "I absolutely loved the book. Most of the places were familiar to me and the few others, I found with Mapquest. It was like a trip to Venice, and I said as much on my Facebook page. I also appreciate the readable print. Three of my granddaughters visited Venice last summer and I know they'll love the book too!" — Terry Stacy, Kentucky "I'm so excited to read Tracking the Carpaccio and to order the other two books of the trilogy." — Amanda H. Fields, Minnesota "Most of all we need to find Signorina Darling!" With those words from Police Inspector Luigi Dario I gave my heart to the search for Emma Darling. Building on the literary appeal of Venice as a city of conspiracy and danger, the author took me on a thrilling track following, and losing, the Darling art historian through canals and islands known for hiding secrets. Secrecy feeds the underlying drama of law, art history and family in this thriller. —Mary Faraci, Florida

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anastasia was just a little girl when she first came to Los Angeles with her mother in 1926, to pursue her mother's dream of conquering Hollywood. But it wasn't her mother under the spotlights—it was her. She became the star her mother wanted, but at a terrible price. The fame that endears her to millions also puts her in shackles, at the mercy of those who control her. How long will it take before she cracks? And what will she do then? This is a story that calls into question the so-called golden era of Hollywood, when the "dream factory" resembled a Byzantine empire, above the law and fed by vanity and greed.

Book excerpt: In 1917, Bolshevik revolutionaries stormed the Russian palace of the Romanovs and killed the entire familyor maybe. There is much conjecture over the remains of the spirited youngest daughter, Anastasia. Many believe she survived and lived a full life in secret. Could it be true? Could the little girl have survived the massacre? Challenging Destiny is a fictional account of lone royal survivor, Anastasia. The story spans three continents and a century of death, destruction, and despairbut also reveals the strength it takes to overcome obstacles in life. Anastasia finds love and romance, even as she seeks to escape the memory of her familys horrific assassination and humankinds yearning for power. The far-reaching influence of Queen Victoria comes into question as part of the Anastasia mystery. Across the world, no one is what he or she seems. The story of the Romanov grand duchess is filled with intrigue and danger, yet love and the human spirit can be victorious over the most horrendous memories.

This book was released on 2014-07-07 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1963 a woman by the name of "Evgenia Smetisko," an immigrant who purportedly entered the United States from Roumania according to her 1928 naturalization papers, published "Anastasia: The Autobiography of HIH The Grand Duchess Anastasia Nicholaevna of Russia." When asked if she were indeed the youngest daughter of Tsar Nicholas II and Empress Alexandra, she denied it and failed a lie detector test. Upon acknowledging the fact, she passed. Although her immigration and naturalization papers state that "Evgenia" was born on January 25, 1899, her grave cross in the cemetery of Holy Trinity Russian Orthodox Monastery in Jordanville, New York lists the birthdate as June 18, 1901. On that date Grand Duchess Anastasia was born in St. Petersburg, Russia. Both Anastasia and "Evgenia" were artistically inclined. Paintings and embroidery from "Evgenia's" collection, which were NOT deemed suitable for inclusion in the monastery's Russian history museum and now reside in a private collection, are offered here for the enjoyment of the reader.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Award-winning author Carolyn Meyer's ANASTASIA is back in print with a gorgeous new package! Anastasia is the youngest daughter of Czar Nicholas II, ruler of Russia. Anastasia is used to a life of luxury; her major concerns are how to get out of her detested schoolwork to play in the snow, go ice-skating, or have picnics. She wears diamonds and rubies, and every morning her mother, the princess, tells her which matching outfit she and her three sisters shall wear that day. It's a fairy tale life -- until everything changes with the outbreak of war between Russia and Germany. As Russia enters WWI, hunger and poverty grows among the peasants, and soon they are not pleased with their ruler. While the czar is trying win a war and save their country, the country is turning on the royal family. When her father and the rest of the family are imprisoned by the Bolsheviks, suddenly Anastasia understands what this war is costing the people. In the pages of her diary, Anastasia chronicles the wealth and luxury of her royal days, as well as the fall from power, and her uncertain fate.

Book excerpt: From the bestselling author of The Frozen River comes an enthralling historical mystery that unravels the extraordinary twists and turns in Anna Anderson’s fifty-year battle to be recognised as Anastasia Romanov. Is she the Russian grand duchess or the thief of another woman’s legacy? Countless others have rendered their verdict. Now it is your turn. Russia, 1918: Under direct orders from Vladimir Lenin, Bolshevik secret police herd Anastasia Romanov, along with the entire imperial family, into a damp basement in Siberia, where they face a merciless firing squad. None survive. At least that is what the executioners have always claimed. Germany, 1920: A young woman bearing an uncanny resemblance to Anastasia Romanov is pulled shivering and senseless from a canal. Refusing to explain her presence in the freezing water or even acknowledge her rescuers, Anna Anderson is taken to the hospital where an examination reveals that her body is riddled with countless horrific scars. When she finally does speak, this frightened, mysterious young woman claims to be the Russian grand duchess. As rumours begin to circulate that the youngest Romanov daughter survived the massacre, old enemies and new threats awaken. I Was Anastasia unravels the thrilling mystery around Anna Anderson in a tale that is every bit as moving and momentous as it is harrowing and twisted.
