The Horror at Martin's Beach
H.P. Lovecraft
¥8.98
Sailors kill a 50-foot creature at sea after a lengthy battle. The creature bears strange anatomical irregularities such as a single large eye and rudimentary forelegs and six-toed feet in place of pectoral fins. After inspection by marine biologists, it is revealed to be just a juvenile. The captain who captured the creature tours the coast and profits from the corpse of the deceased creature. As the captain attempts to finish his business at Martin's Beach, a group of swimmers are attacked. The captain and others attempt to rescue the victims but it is too late. The rescuers and the captain are hypnotized and pulled into the water by the creature's apparently vengeful mother, to the horror of an onlooking crowd.

Follow Puppet's adventure as he races against time to save the life of an immortal woman, before this strange world kills him. A world where death was forbidden and rules were made up by a select few. This is a story about mortality, art, love, unusual relationships, and a place where people can choose to reincarnate into augmented bodies or bizarre creatures.

Londres, 1824, el relojero Dorff es asaltado por dos emboscados y recibe la ayuda de Renato de Giac, marqués de Brezé. Más tarde, ya en casa de Dorff, éste le entrega a Renato un manuscrito y un cofre con documentos importantísimos que los que están en el poder en Francia, Luis XVIII y su jefe de policía Lecazes, pretenden arrebatarle. La autora aborda por primera vez el género de la novela histórica mediante la recreación de la compleja historia de Luis XVII, el delfín perdido, el hijo de Luis XVI y María Antonieta. Asistiremos también a la intriga amorosa de Renato de Giac y Amelia, la hija mayor de Dorff. Este es un excepcional relato que aspira, como nos dice la autora en su novela, “a proyectar un rayo de luz en las lobregueces históricas por medio de la lámpara caprichosa de la fantasía”.

Diamanten, Doodsgevaar en Verdwijningen Een thriller met forensisch accountant Katerina Carter in de hoofdrol Fraudeonderzoeker Katerina Carter weet gewoon niet wanneer ze met een zaak moet stoppen en daardoor komt ze terecht in een aantal lastige en gevaarlijke situaties. Nu ze geen werk meer heeft en haar geld opraakt, heeft Kat dringend meer cli?nten nodig, of ze moet met hangende pootjes terug naar haar oude, saaie negen-tot-vijf-baantje bij haar vorige werkgever. En dat is wel het laatste wat Kat wil. Dus als Susan Sullivan, de hoogste baas van Liberty Diamond Mines, Kat inhuurt om de verdwenen financieel directeur van het bedrijf terug te vinden – en de gigantische som gestolen geld die hij met zich meegenomen heeft – neemt Kat de opdracht net iets te graag aan. Rood staan is natuurlijk een belangrijke stimulans om moeilijke klussen aan te nemen, maar haar enthousiasme verandert al snel in doodsangst als twee werknemers van Liberty op brute wijze worden vermoord.? Kat beseft dat dit onderzoek wel eens gevaarlijker zou kunnen zijn dan ze had verwacht. Alsof alles nog niet ingewikkeld genoeg is, ontdekt ze een sinister verband tussen bloeddiamanten en georganiseerde misdaad. Nu moet ze alleen nog bewijzen vinden... en zorgen dat ze niet wordt vermoord voordat ze de echte criminelen ontmaskert. Met behulp van haar vrienden en een excentrieke oom moet Kat voorzichtig te werk gaan; anders wordt haar eerste zaak misschien ook gelijk haar laatste... ‘Nooduitgang’ is een actierijke thriller die zich afspeelt in de wereld van de georganiseerde misdaad met allerlei financi?le en juridische verwikkelingen, die doet denken aan de boeken van? Michael Connelly en John Grisham. Wat Amerikaanse lezers van het boek vonden:‘Een internationaal verhaal over diamanten, doodsgevaar en verdwijningen, Nooduitgang boeide me vanaf de eerste bladzijde ...’?‘Nooduitgang, de eerste in de reeks actierijke juridische thrillers met Katerina Carter in de hoofdrol, is een spannende psychologische thriller die je gewoon niet kunt neerleggen!’?‘.Adembenemende spanning en verwikkelingen!’
