Book Description
“A woman partners with a cop to track a serial killer in this thriller that “marks the arrival of a bold new female voice for American crime-fiction fans” (Publishers Weekly). Makedde Vanderwall is a part-time model, a student of forensic psychology, and a bad-ass. She has to be. It’s the only way the six-foot blonde stunner is taken seriously in this world. When her best friend and fellow model is brutally murdered, Makedde is deadly serious about finding the killer. Detective Andy Flynn suspects the gruesome crime to be the work of a serial killer with a kink for killing young women. But that doesn’t keep Mak from doing her own sleuthing. Not only is Mak well-versed in the criminal mind, she grew up with a cop father in a household where homicide was dinnertime conversation. But when the psychopath targets Mak, suddenly getting her man—and keeping Detective Flynn at arm’s length—gets a lot more dangerous. “Makedde Vanderwall ranks up there as [a] contemporary Aussie literary icon.” —The Daily Telegraph “Mak is the female equivalent of Jack Reacher.” —Joanne Harris, New York Times–bestselling author of Chocolat

John Olsen

Publisher:
ISBN: 9781459689398
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 676
Book Description
This landmark biography by Darleen Bungey, the author of the celebrated biography of Arthur Boyd, graphically depicts the forces that drove John Olsen to become one of the country's greatest artists. An exhilarating book, both trenchant and tender, it strips away the veneer of showmanship and fame to show the substance of a painter driven by a need to depict his country's landscape as Australians had never seen it before. Given access to his uncensored diaries and drawing on years of extensive interviews with both Olsen and those who have known him best, she explores his passionate life and follows his navigation though the friendships, rivalries and politics of the Australian art world. How did a shy, stuttering boy from Newcastle, neglected by his alcoholic father, come to paint the great mural Salute to Five Bells at the Sydney Opera House? This biography follows that journey - through Olsen's early experiences in the bush, particularly a formative period at Yass (a time previously unrecorded), to years of cleaning jobs to pay his way through art school, to a milestone time spent in France and Spain - and traces his constant travels and relocations within Australia, including his epic journeys into the outback and to Kati Thanda - Lake Eyre. From a child who was never taken to an art gallery, who learnt how to draw from comics, we come to see the famous artist in the black beret, the writer and poet, the engaging public speaker, the bon vivant - whose life has been defined by an absolute need to paint.

Why shouldn’t girls have pockets? And why did they have to wear corsets all the time? An exploration of Coco’s early life and a celebration of her creativity, Along Came Coco †‹shows the ways in which Coco Chanel’s imaginative spirit led her to grow into one of the world’s most beloved fashion icons.
