Book Description
Based on a true story: Mark begins his life in Eden, a remote North Auckland settlement. The story takes us through his boyhood, wending its way through much that life has in store for him. He samples forward offerings early in his life, all these experiences becoming embedded in his character – tempering it, changing it, a little at a time. Hardship, hunger and poverty bring disaster to those not able to adapt so he develops great resilience and an animal-like awareness which helps him quickly understand the directions he must take to win or regain advantage. He and his Eden peers are fiercely defensive; survival becomes an art form. Exposure to sex, drinking and violence in his tender years teaches him to constantly adjust his view of life as he steps cagily through it. He reaches out for his right to life – and its rewards – and pursues it with unashamed commitment as he develops survival strategies with no apology for selfish gain.

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
Rhys Bowen's brilliant wit and charm are on full display in Hush Now, Don't You Cry, another outstanding addition to her Agatha and Anthony award-winning historical series. Molly Murphy is supposed to give up sleuthing now that she's married, but the murder of an alderman puts her on the trail of a killer. Molly Murphy, now Molly Sullivan, and her husband Daniel, a captain in the New York Police department, have been invited to spend their honeymoon on the Newport, RI, estate of Alderman Brian Hannan in the spring of 1904. Molly doesn't entirely trust the offer. Hannan—an ambitious man—has his eye on a senate seat and intentions of taking Tammany Hall to get it. When Hannan is found dead at the base of the cliffs that overlook the Atlantic, Molly's suspicions are quickly justified, and as much as she wants to keep her promise to Daniel that she won't do any more sleuthing now, there isn't much she can do once the chase is on.
