Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With internal and external mysteries to solve, Ima will never be the same when death comes to Aunt Lotties London. After escaping communist-controlled Estonia, Ima Purple needs a vacation from international intrigue. Yet the moment she enters her great-aunt's home in London, she lands in a world of butlers, secret passages, and poisons. While her father Lionel Longwind revives his acting career in England, Ima learns of several New Yorkers traveling abroad, one who has proven himself as Lionel's mortal enemy. Somehow this villain ingratiates himself into Aunt Lottie's good graces. Meanwhile, Ima wrestles with a personal mystery that started in Detroit. On a tour of London, she sees scores of hippies claiming squatters rights to a Mayfair mansion. About her age, these young people act high on drugs and totally disenchanted, even disengaged from life. Some carry protest signs that repeat the same messages as on placards in America. Ima decides to give a speech in Hyde Park to protest this waste of young life. That decision makes her confront her prejudices. Like an old-fashioned drawing room drama, a genteel dinner party masks a murderous plot. When a bitter rivalry breaks onto center stage, Ima needs her sleuthing skills more than ever. But when someone close to her dies suddenly, she is almost too stunned to investigate. With internal and external mysteries to solve, Ima will never be the same when death comes to Aunt Lottie's London.

When the equipment disappears, Paul asks Ima to bring a fresh set to Estonia to continue his research. Concerned about going to a Soviet Republic, Ima invites her Manhattan pal Riina Feingold to come along as interpreter because her parents had fled to New York from Estonia in 1940. As couriers of scientific equipment, the young ladies head for Tallinn, Estonia. Upon arrival, they get accused of a spy plot. Ima tries to convince customs the apparatuses they carry are not bombs. The officials seize their passports and equipment. Then, Riina's last name reminds them of a murderer who escaped in 1942. While Ima gets involved in investigating the whereabouts of the missing artificial hearts, KGB seeks to arrest Riina to use her as a bargaining chip to exchange for the return of her father to Estonia.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Docking about midnight, Imagine Purple is glad to be back on dry land! Our young sleuth has endured two life-threatening events recently. Although no longer seasick, Ima has not slept for two days. Unable to think clearly, she makes a seemingly harmless decision to travel awhile with the vamp, Vanna Belforte. Vanna, always on the lookout for an easy mark, has arranged for them to ride in a white, unmarked box van owned by Claude, a young, handsome French Canadian. After a near accident and a grilling border interview, Ima suspects she has fallen in with bad company. In spite of Claude's thick accent, Ima learns all about his organic farm operation in Maine. As he grows sleepy, she tries to keep him awake by chattering about her adventures. Even so, he turns the wheel over to her and joins the now-sleeping beauty Vanna. This shocking responsibility becomes a huge challenge to Ima, considering she has not used a stick shift since her high school driving course. Upon hitting a blinding fog, she struggles to keep the top-heavy vehicle upright and on the correct highway. A near accident and an inquisitive border agent start new spirals of trouble for Ima. Arriving to a quaint New England town, Ima and Vanna agree to rent an overly-rustic cottage and a 1940s classic car. These pose more danger than fun and relaxation. Vanna visits Claude's farm and has a frightful experience with a lady living there. Ima realizes that fear has seized the ever-petulant Vanna who now grapples with real and imagined vengeful spirits. Ima begs Vanna to change her thinking as they use different ways to confront Mary Jane of Canton, Maine.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ima Purple knew Vanna Belforte had a colorful, perhaps reckless past in Atlanta, Georgia. Their friendship had suffered continual ups and downs until Vanna came to New York to buy a trousseau. She invites Ima down for a gracious Deep South wedding. Upon arrival, Ima meets two families whose lives intertwine in a way unknown to her. The Belfortes have restored a lost fortune and rebuilt Chasenton, a dilapidated family estate. The Bees are the descendants of the estate's slaves who stayed on as servants to help. When the teacher-turned-detective digs deeper, she finds regional differences, racial struggles, and forbidden romances. Meanwhile, back in her own familiar surroundings, Vanna finds that Atlanta brings out her best and worst sides. Not enthused by her wedding festivities, she returns to her typical antics. Feeling ignored, Ima decides to entertain herself by asking the staff casual questions about life at the estate. What she hears drives her to investigate an old crime involving the cook's son. Ima pushes to find new clues before Vanna makes a big mistake and keeps a deadly vow. If the past crashes into the present, events could lead characters to repentance or retribution. Will Vanna choose romance or revenge in the Anti-Belle of Antebellum Atlanta?

Download or read book Arthur Machen written by Antonio Sanna and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-04-21 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arthur Machen: Critical Essays offers a study of the works by Arthur Machen (1863-1947), the Welsh writer who has attracted a cult following for decades, especially among fans and scholars of weird fiction and Gothic studies. These essays take readers into different areas and address several topics in Machen's literary production: the literary, the artistic, the scientific, the religious, the socio-cultural, and the personal. The twelve chapters constituting the volume examine the representation of human beings in the writer's works and their relationship with the surrounding environment, whether it is the omnipresent London or the mysterious, menacing nature. The contributors also interpret Machen's writings through a series of disciplines and academic theories that were contemporary to the writer (such as paleontology and medicine) and demonstrate how he was influenced by the scientific discourses of his time and reproduced them in his works. The last section of the volume considers Machen's interest in the occult and mysticism and the religious themes present in many of his works.
