This book was released on 2024-03-15 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finalist in the Mystery/Suspense and Cozy Mystery categories of the 2022 American Fiction Awards Libby and Alexis’s business, the Dharma Inspired Day Spa, will participate at Mesa’s biggest arts and crafts fair this year, but right from the start, bad stuff starts happening. On the very first morning, several booths are vandalized and products are stolen, among them the handknitted items Libby’s mom and her friends have made for charity. Everyone pitches in to get the booths rebuilt in time for the festival opening, but the calamities keep piling up. Dogs are becoming ill, one vendor’s business is being threatened with shutdown, and there’s more theft. None of the stolen items or destructive acts qualify as major crimes, and the police have their hands full with bigger things. Everyone is begging Libby to help track down the perpetrators. But when Libby and Shadow start investigating, someone turns the tables on her and she finds herself in a cold white room at the police station, accused. Why would someone go after the vendors and their livelihood? And who would want to see Libby blamed? If she can’t find the answers, she’s likely to be the one on trial.

Book excerpt: From debut author Megan Paasch comes Dream to Me, a YA contemporary fantasy about generational magic, grief, and what it takes to forgive ourselves. Eva Sylvan didn’t ask for any of this. Not the cross-country move with her sister to a town in the middle of nowhere, not the family estate, inherited from a late great-aunt, that’s falling apart at the hinges, and definitely not the sudden death of her beloved father. So when the locals react with hostility to the very mention of her last name, Eva’s pretty sure things can’t get any worse. Until she has a dream about a gas station employee and the next day, he’s in a coma. And then it happens again. Something sinister is lurking in the corners of Eva's dreams, something that’s having devastating effects on the waking world. People are dropping left and right, and Eva finds herself squarely in the town's crosshairs. In order to defeat the shadows of her unconscious, Eva must not only unearth the magic tied to her family history, but she must confront the guilt that has been haunting her since her father’s death. Only she can save the town from the dark power in her dreams - if the threat is truly even her dreams at all.

Download or read book The Flagellant written by Reed Alexander and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2019-04-30 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did you find yourself rooting for the villain in a horror movie? Maybe it's because horror films represent the victims as cowering lambs ready to throw their own mother in the jaws of death to save themselves. The usual pack of unsuspecting teenagers, through their own stupidity, serves themselves up as fodder. These are not people you feel sorry for. These are the same self–centered slobs plodding around society, aggravating everyone around them. That victim is that smart–mouthed prick who screwed up your order at the Waffle Hut, or that bimbo who had her boyfriend beat you up, or that guy from payroll who shorted you and told you it's somehow your fault. It's that jet–set, life handed to him, Ivy League boss who defended that prick from payroll, because it's good for the company's overhead. If a victim's death in a horror movie seems cathartic, it's because the directors and writers know we'll pack theaters for that very reason. We'd love to see that boss, that accountant, that bimbo and her pinhead boyfriend, and that little prick at the Waffle Hut, get what's coming to them. But my book is not about the victims. My book is about you. Yes, you. The bloodthirsty, thinks they should run the world, him or her hoping the slave gets fed to the lions. The Flagellant is about why we love to watch the victims get theirs and what that says about us. The Flagellant focuses around our protagonist, Mahdoc, as he attempts to infiltrate unholy nests of evil. This is no normal task, and Mahdoc is no normal man. He's a special soldier of the Inquisition known as a flagellant. His very soul is owned by the Inquisition. Mahdoc's was pulled from hell, and if he wants to stay here on earth, he'll fight for the Inquisition, without question, for one thousand years. The task of a flagellant is unrelentingly brutal. Each nest of evil is unique and protects itself by concealing its root cause. To get at the roots, each flagellant must allow themselves to become the victim. Like many before him, Mahdoc must succumb to the horror and madness so he can be delivered to the root of the nest. Only then can he kill it and guarantee it will never come back.

Download or read book The Flanders Road written by Claude Simon and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2022-07-12 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the winner of the 1985 Nobel Prize in Literature, a riveting, stylistically audacious modernist epic about the French cavalry's bloody face-off against German Panzer tanks during WWII. On a sunny day in May 1940, the French army sent out the cavalry against the invading German army’s panzer tanks. Unsurprisingly, the French were routed. Twenty-six-year-old Claude Simon was among the French forces. As they retreated, he saw his captain shot off his horse by a German sniper. This is the primal scene to which Simon returns repeatedly in his fiction and nowhere so powerfully as in his most famous novel The Flanders Road. Here Simon’s own memories overlap with those of his central character, Georges, whose captain, a distant relative, dies a similar death. Georges reviews the circumstances and sense—or senselessness—of that death, first in the company of a fellow prisoner in a POW camp and then some years later in the course of an ever more erotically charged visit to the captain’s widow, Corinne. As he does, other stories emerge: Corinne’s prewar affair with the jockey Iglésia, who would become the captain’s orderly; the possible suicide of an eighteenth-century ancestor, whose grim portrait loomed large in Georges’s childhood home; Georges’s learned father, whose books are no help against barbarism. The great question throughout, the question that must be urgently asked even as it remains unanswerable, is whether fiction can confront and respond to the trauma of history.
