Killing Time - Linda Howard - Bog - Little, Brown Book Group - Plusbog.dk

In 1985, a time capsule was buried in the front lawn of a small town courthouse, to be reopened in 2085. But just twenty years later, in the middle of the night, the capsule is dug up and its contents stolen. And that same night, one of the contributors to the capsule is brutally slain in his home - with no sign of forced entry or indication of a struggle. One by one, the other time capsule contributors are also being targeted. Other than the sudden, mysterious appearance of the intriguing Nikita Stover, the local police have absolutely no leads. And while Nikita''s no murderer, it''s true she has plenty of secrets. With more at stake than anyone else realizes, the smart-talking Nikita is determined to catch this cunning killer while at the same time battling her own deepening feelings for a man and a world in which she doesn''t belong.

Orchids On Your Budget - Marjorie Hillis - Bog - Little, Brown Book Group - Plusbog.dk

Orchids On Your Budget - Marjorie Hillis - Bog - Little, Brown Book Group - Plusbog.dk

THE BESTSELLING NOVEL FOLLOW-UP TO WITTY BESTSELLER LIVE ALONE AND LIKE IT Orchids on Your Budget gives advice on all manner of subjects, from entertaining and creating the perfect capsule wardrobe to relinquishing the family estate. Lest you worry about how to put the advice into practice, each chapter concludes with a case study providing examples of women who heeded - and those lamentable souls who ignored - Marjorie''s wise words.'' It''s not difficult to have fun out of economising (up to a point), both because of the sense of achievement it gives you and because everyone else is doing it, too . . . A slight financial pressure sharpens the wits, though it needn''t sharpen the disposition. But it takes an interesting person to have an attractive menage on a shoe-string and to run it with gaiety and charm . . . Maybe you would rather play polo than pingpong, but if you''ve got an old pingpong set and no ponies, you''ll get a lot more fun out of life from being a pingpong champion than from taking a dispirited whack with a polo mallet every now and then .''

In Diamond Square - Merce Rodoreda - Bog - Little, Brown Book Group - Plusbog.dk

''A small masterpiece'' Colm Toibin, Daily Telegraph ''I don''t know how many times I have reread the book, including several times in Catalan, with such effort that speaks volumes to my devotion to the novel'' Gabriel Garcia Marquez ''The fierce beauty of Rodoreda''s writing makes it one of the masterpieces of modern European literature'' Independent First published in 1962 as ''La Placa del Diamant'', this is considered the most important Catalan novel of all time. This is a new English translation. It has previously been published in English as The Time of the Doves. Barcelona, early 1930s: Natalia, a pretty shop-girl from the working-class quarter of Gracia, is hesitant when a stranger asks her to dance at the fiesta in Diamond Square. But Joe is charming and forceful, and she takes his hand.They marry and soon have two children; for Natalia it is an awakening, both good and bad. When Joe decides to breed pigeons, the birds delight his son and daughter - and infuriate his wife. Then the Spanish Civil War erupts, and lays waste to the city and to their simple existence. Natalia remains in Barcelona, struggling to feed her family, while Joe goes to fight the fascists, and one by one his beloved birds fly away.A highly acclaimed classic that has been translated into more twenty-eight languages, In Diamond Square is the moving, vivid and powerful story of a woman caught up in a convulsive period of history.'' An extremely moving love story translated from the Catalan, which reveals much about the Spanish civil war as ordinary, non-political people had to live it'' Diana Athill ''Go along with Natalia on her night out and you''ll soon find you''d follow her anywhere.

The monastery there, it is said, was founded by St Francis himself in the 13th century, following his return from the fifth crusade. Just five monks now remain. Popular with those seeking to escape the crowds of Venice itself, the island also offers itself as a place of retreat. Summer 2020. Honorary Counsel Nathan Sutherland receives a phone call from Vanni, his friend in the Venetian police force. There's been an incident on the island. The details are unclear but an Englishman on retreat appears to have died during the night. There are two other Englishmen in his party, everybody is having difficulty communicating due to the language barrier, and so could Nathan come out to the island with him? The dead man was found strangled in front of the altar in the main chapel. Neither of his companions has any record of violent crime, nor any motive for murder. Nothing appears to have been stolen or removed. Indeed, there are no great artworks or treasures that might be worth stealing. And so, together with Vanni, Nathan tries to answer the question: what past events could drive someone to murder in an ancient monastery in the middle of a lagoon? _______________ Praise for Philip Gwynne Jones 'Superb - always gripping, beautifully constructed and vivid' Stephen Glover 'Clever and great fun' The Times 'Sinister and shimmering, The Venetian Game is as haunting and darkly elegant as Venice itself' L.S.
