Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Phantom Death: And Other Stories All went well with us for several days. Our ship's company consisted of twelve men, including a boatswain and carpenter. The forecastle hands appeared very hearty, likely fellows, despite their pier-head raiment of Scotch cap and broken small clothes, and open flannel shirt, and greasy sheath-knife belted to the hip. They worked with a will, they sang out cheerily at the ropes, they went in and out of the galley at meal-time without faces of loathing, and but one complaint came aft before our wonderful, mysterious troubles began the ship's bread crawled, they said, and, being found truly very had, good white flour was served out in lieu. We had been eight days at sea, and in that time had made fairly good way; it drew down a quiet, soft, black night with the young moon gone soon after sunset, a trembling flash of stars over the mastheads, a murky dimness of heat and of stagnation all round about the sea-line, and a frequent glance of sea-fire over the side when a dip of the barque's round bends drove the water from her in a swelling cloud of ebony. I walked the quarter-deck with the captain, and our talk was of England and of the Brazils, and of his experiences as a mariner of thirty years' standing. What of the weather? Said I, as we came to a pause at the binnacle, whose bright disc of illuminated card touched into phantom outlines the hairy features of the Jack who grasped the wheel.

Book excerpt: Inspector Leroux had witnessed the execution of the Phantom of the Opera. Justice had been served. So he thinks, until letters in a feminine hand arrive, hinting at the curious coincidence of a masked composer, Erik Costanzi, thriving in an Italian opera house and married to the former Parisian Diva, Meg Giry. Driven by outrage and a desire for revenge, the inspector tracks the Phantom to his new home. But there is another ghost from Erik's past, one who dogs the Phantom's steps, who sabotages the production of his newest opera, and who threatens the peace he has found with Meg and his family. Book IV, Phantom Death, is the last in the Phoenix of the Opera series. It continues and closes the story begun in The Phoenix of the Opera, and continued in Out of the Darkness: The Phantom's Journey and The Phantom's Opera.

Book excerpt: "When the lead in a local production of 'Phantom of the opera' is found bludgeoned to death beside a huge saguaro in a remote, undeveloped area of Scottsdale, it's a shock to ranch owner Maggie Browne, who knew the actor as a boy. She's further drawn into the mystery when the victim's mother asks for her help in solving her only son's tragic ending. Enlisting the aid of her friends, the women of St. Rose Quilting Bee, Maggie begins to sort through the pieces of the dead man's life, wondering if one can ever truly 'know' an actor. What was he doing in the desert late at night? While police suspect a carjacking turned deadly, Maggie explores some strange doings in the life of Jonathan Hunter's nearest and dearest, exposing dangerous secrets meant to stay buried in the desert ... and in the past"--Book description.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born in 1906, Huguette Clark grew up in her family's 121-room Beaux Arts mansion in New York and was one of the leading celebrities of her day. Her father William Andrews Clark, was a copper magnate, the second richest man in America, and not above bribing his way into the Senate. Huguette attended the coronation of King George V. And at twenty-two with a personal fortune of $50 million to her name, she married a Princeton man and childhood friend William MacDonald Gower. Two-years later the couple divorced. After a series of failed romances, Huguette began to withdraw from society--first living with her mother in a kind of Grey Gardens isolation then as a modern-day Miss Havisham, spending her days in a vast apartment overlooking Central Park, eating crackers and watching The Flintstones with only servants for company. All her money and all her real estate could not protect her in her later life from being manipulated by shady hangers-on and hospitals that were only too happy to admit (and bill) a healthy woman. But what happened to Huguette that turned a vivacious, young socialite into a recluse? And what was her life like inside that gilded, copper cage?

Download or read book Phantom Lights written by Teru Miyamoto and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presenting a new collection of stories exploring the perennial themes of Miyamoto Teru's fiction, narrative sketches of the world-class world of the Osaka-Kobe region of his childhood employing memory to reveal a story in layered frames of time with consummate skill. His work examines the mutual proximity--or even the identity--of life and death, often touching on such grim topics with a touch of humor. Stories of personal triumph and hope are often set in situations involving death, illness, or loss, but what might be the stuff of tragedy in the hands of some writers turns into stepping stones for his characters to climb upward and onward. Miyamoto's considerable and devoted following in Japan has come increasingly to be mirrored in other Asian countries and parts of Europe as his fiction has been translated into various languages. With renditions of only three of his works currently available in English, however, Anglophone readers have for the most part been unaware of the "Teru" literary phenomenon. The present collection aims to fill part of this lack by offering a selection of some his finest short stories along with one of his most admired novellas--Phantom Lights--which was made into the internationally acclaimed 1995 movie Maborosi by Koreeda Hirokazu. The will to live, karma, and death are themes developed through the lives of Miyamoto's fictional characters, who struggle to achieve closure with their respective pasts and in their often difficult relations with others. The comments of Washington Times writer Anna Chambers in her review of Kinshu: Autumn Brocade aptly apply to the works presented here as well: ..".existential crisis after existential crisis force the characters to question whether one can shape one's own karma--rather than construct one's own soul, as a Western reader might have put it. And herein lies the Westerner's entree into the book as more than an observer of Japanese culture." And like Kinshu, the stories in the present collection provide "a satisfying taste of what it means to grapple with fate at the intersection of modernity and tradition." Miyamoto deftly weaves his tales using scenes and settings from his native Kansai region, and all are flavored with the language of western Japan. Like the depressed areas described in much of his fiction, his characters too are "left behind" by post-war Japan's rapid economic growth, by unexpected changes in their lives, or by the deaths of loved ones. His heroes are ordinary people who, as he puts it, "are trying to lift themselves up, who are struggling to live," and who achieve quiet triumphs.
