Download or read book Smuggler's Lair written by Virginia Henley and published by Lyrical Press. This book was released on 2016-05-10 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is always a time for love . . . Victoria Carswell will not be bound by society’s dictates, least of all the clothes that constrict her. But while brazenly skinny-dipping in view of her beloved Bodiam Castle—abandoned for many years, or so she thinks—she’s overcome by a distinct—and thrilling—sensation of being watched. When she decides to explore the castle, the ancient hallways and dusty byways take her on an unexpected journey into the distant past . . . Swept back from her staid Victorian era to the comparatively bawdy times of Georgian England, Victoria is quickly wooed by a pirate smuggler. In Falcon’s arms, she revels in expressing herself unreservedly in a liberating spirit of adventure and recklessness. And she is rightly devastated when she suddenly finds herself back in her world, separated from her pirate seemingly forever. But she may learn that time might just be on her side . . . Previously published in Lords of Desire.
Book Synopsis Smugglers and Smuggling by : Trevor May
Download or read book Smugglers and Smuggling written by Trevor May and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2014-08-10 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Smuggling was rife in Britain between the seventeenth and mid-nineteenth centuries, and since then smugglers have come often to be romanticised as cheeky rogues – as highwaymen of the coasts and Robin Hood figures. The reality could be very different. Cut-throat businessmen determined to make a profit, many smugglers were prepared to use excessive force as often as they used cunning, and the officers whose job it was to apprehend them were regularly brutally intimidated into inaction. Trevor May explains who the smugglers were, what motivated them, where they operated, and how items ranging from barrels of brandy to boxes of tea would surreptitiously be moved inland under the noses of, and sometimes even in collusion with, the authorities.

The strange house, shunned by the people Broadstairs and Margate, caters to a century-old eating society that offers a secret catalogue of corpses for sale and a menu for wealthy members with... eccentric tastes.

Book Synopsis A Man of Many Parts by : Barbara Rawlinson
Download or read book A Man of Many Parts written by Barbara Rawlinson and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 2006 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive study of George Gissing's short stories and related non-fiction is essential reading for students of nineteenth-century realism. For the first time readers will be able to follow the development which transformed Gissing's unremarkable early stories into the very individual tales that elevated his work to the vanguard of realistic short fiction. Gissing's American period is notable for its accumulation of themes that were repeatedly refined and adapted for his later work, causality emerging as the dominant voice. On his return to England, shifting political and philosophical beliefs expressed in his non-fiction had a vital impact on his second phase of short fiction, and the part played by realism in the author's short stories and his writings on Charles Dickens added further dimensions to his work as a whole. By the final phase of Gissing's remarkable development, it is evident that his interest in the concept of causality as the major force in his short work had been replaced by a more challenging preoccupation with the human psyche. This introduced philosophical, sociological and psychological dimensions to Gissing's work that established him in the field of short fiction as a leading exponent of late nineteenth-century realism
Book Synopsis Seeds of Terror by : Gretchen Peters
Download or read book Seeds of Terror written by Gretchen Peters and published by Picador. This book was released on 2010-04-27 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seeds of Terror is a groundbreaking triumph of reporting, a book that changed U.S. policy toward the Afghan heroin trade and the fight against terror. Gretchen Peters exposes the deepening relationship between the Taliban and drug traffickers, and traces decades of America's failure to disrupt the opium production that helps fund extremism. The Taliban earns as much as half a billion dollars annually from drugs and crime, and Peters argues that disrupting this flow of dirty money will be critical to stabilizing Afghanistan. Based on hundreds of interviews with fighters, smugglers, and government officials, Seeds of Terror is the essential story of the narco-terror nexus behind America's widening war in Afghanistan.
