Susan Ryeland, insatisfecha con su nueva vida en Creta, echa de menos Londres. Un día, recibe la visita de Lawrence y Pauline Treherne, propietarios de Branlow Hall, un lujoso hotel en Inglaterra. El matrimonio pide ayuda a Susan para encontrar a su hija.

SI ENTRAS EN ESTE ROMPECABEZAS LITERARIO, NO PODRÁS SALIR HASTA LA ÚLTIMA PÁGINA « Un asesinato brillante es tan buena como una novela de Agatha Christie. Quizá incluso mejor, más inteligente» . STEPHEN KING Susan Ryeland ha sido durante años la editora del excéntrico escritor superventas Alan Conway. Los lectores adoran al protagonista de su serie más famosa, el detective Atticus Pünd, que se dedica a resolver crímenes en la década de los cincuenta por pueblecitos ingleses aparentemente tranquilos. Sin embargo, la última novela que ha entregado Conway, y a la que le faltan los últimos capítulos, no es como las demás y está a punto de cambiar la vida de Susan. Aunque en la narración hay cadáveres y una interesante lista de sospechosos, entre las páginas del manuscrito se esconde otra historia: una trama que se entrelaza con la vida real en la que los celos, las envidias, las ambiciones despiadadas y los asesinatos superan con creces a la ficción. Anthony Horowitz, autor superventas del New York Times, nos transporta a un laberíntico misterio que encierra otro misterio de la mano de personajes dignos de los mejores clásicos en un escenario contemporáneo...

Han pasado ya treinta años desde aquellas elecciones de 1982 en las que el PSOE consiguió una aplastante mayoría absoluta y un hombre en los cuarenta, Felipe González, se dispuso a dirigir (por primera vez en tiempos de paz) un gobierno monocolor y socialista. Muchos eran los retos que tenía ante sí, muchos los logros conseguidos ―entre los que destaca convertir a España en un país avanzado social, cultural y económicamente― y no pocos los errores ―como la corrupción, el ordenamiento autonómico y las luchas intestinas del partido que quizá aún hoy se siguen pagando. Joaquín Leguina, con la distancia de los treinta años sucedidos, lleva a cabo en estas páginas un análisis subjetivo ―como protagonista que fue―, reflexivo y crítico de aquellos años. Haciendo especial hincapié en las cosas que a su juicio salieron mal pero sin obviar los aciertos. «Intentaré en las páginas que siguen dar al lector mi versión impresionista de aquellas gentes que llegaron al poder en 1982 y de aquellos avatares. Por lo tanto, este no es un libro de historia y tampoco se trata de unas memorias. Procuraré tomar la distancia que el tiempo transcurrido me permite para no...

Stephen King 'The finest crime novel of the year' Daily Mail ***** Seven for a mystery that needs to be solved . . . Editor Susan Ryland has worked with bestselling crime writer Alan Conway for years. Readers love his detective, Atticus Pünd, a celebrated solver of crimes in the sleepy English villages of the 1950s. But Conway's latest tale of murder at Pye Hall is not quite what it seems. Yes, there are dead bodies and a host of intriguing suspects, but hidden in the pages of the manuscript lies another story: a tale written between the very words on the page, telling of real-life jealousy, greed, ruthless ambition and murder.

Alan Conway écrit des romans policiers. C’est un auteur à succès, ce qui n’est pas pour déplaire à son éditrice, Susan Reynolds. Depuis des années qu’elle travaille avec lui, elle n’a pas de raison de se plaindre : chacun de ses livres se retrouve sur les listes de best-sellers. Les lecteurs adorent le détective Atticus Pünd, personnage central des romans de Conway, et ils raffolent de ses enquêtes dans la campagne anglaise des années 1950. Ils achètent, et Susan Reynolds sourit. Et son sourire s’étire à la lecture du nouveau manuscrit de son auteur fétiche. Rien de très original ou de très inhabituel : des meurtres, des suspects. La recette classique, efficace. Racoleur et bien ficelé, ce texte a tout pour plaire lui aussi au plus grand nombre. Mais les trois derniers chapitres et le dénouement de l’enquête manquent, ce qui a le don d’agacer l’éditrice qui s’empresse de les réclamer. Les obtenir cependant, se révèle être une tâche bien compliquée, surtout lorsqu’elle apprend la mort de l’auteur qui, en mettant fin à sa vie, menace celle de sa maison d’édition...

“One of the most important chroniclers of the modern psyche.” —The Guardian The novelist, cultural critic, and indie icon serves up sometimes bitchy, always generous, erudite, and joyful assessments from the last thirty-five years of cutting edge film, art, and literature. Whether he’s describing Tracy Emin or Warhol, the films of Barbet Schroeder (“Schroeder is well aware that life is not a narrative; that we impose form on the movements of chance, contingency, and impulse....”) or the installations of Barbara Kruger (“Kruger compresses the telling exchanges of lived experience that betray how skewed our lives are…”), Indiana is never just describing. His writing is refreshing, erudite, joyful. Indiana champions shining examples of literary and artistic merit regardless of whether the individual artist or writer is famous; asserts a standard of care and tradition that has nothing to do with the ivory tower establishment; is unafraid to deliver the coup de grâce when someone needs to say the emperor has no clothes; speaks in the same breath—in the same discerning, insolent, eloquent way—about high art and pop culture. Few writers could get away with saying...

A thriller about an Egyptologist’s greatest find—and his quest to steal it—from the #1 New York Times–bestselling author of Jurassic Park and The Andromeda Strain. Brilliant Egyptologist Harold Barnaby has discovered a message hidden inside a particularly difficult set of hieroglyphics. It just may lead him to a secret tomb holding the greatest riches of the ancient world. Barnaby could put his name to the most fantastic archaeological find of the century. But he doesn’t just want to dig it up. He wants to steal it. With the help of a smuggler, a thief, and an English lord, he plans his heist. They find that tomb raiding is trickier than they thought, and those who steal from dead Egyptians face dangers worse than a mummy’s ancient curse. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Michael Crichton including rare images from the author’s estate.

The Dunning School

The Dunning School

Autor: John David Smith , J. Vincent Lowery

Número de Páginas: 434

From the late nineteenth century until World War I, a group of Columbia University students gathered under the mentorship of the renowned historian William Archibald Dunning (1857–1922). Known as the Dunning School, these students wrote the first generation of state studies on the Reconstruction—volumes that generally sympathized with white southerners, interpreted radical Reconstruction as a mean-spirited usurpation of federal power, and cast the Republican Party as a coalition of carpetbaggers, freedmen, scalawags, and former Unionists. Edited by the award-winning historian John David Smith and J. Vincent Lowery, The Dunning School focuses on this controversial group of historians and its scholarly output. Despite their methodological limitations and racial bias, the Dunning historians' writings prefigured the sources and questions that later historians of the Reconstruction would utilize and address. Many of their pioneering dissertations remain important to ongoing debates on the broad meaning of the Civil War and Reconstruction and the evolution of American historical scholarship. This groundbreaking collection of original essays offers a fair and critical assessment of...

'A masterclass in mystery writing’ Ragnar Jónasson 'Expect plenty of puzzles, red herrings and juicy murders' Express 'Worthy of Agatha Christie' Publishers Weekly *Starred Review* ‘Glorious fun’ The Daily Telegraph ------------- Susan Ryeland has had enough of murder. She’s edited two novels about the famous detective, Atticus Pünd, and both times she’s come close to being killed. Now she’s back in England and she’s been persuaded to work on a third. The new ‘continuation’ novel is by Eliot Crace, grandson of Miriam Crace who was the biggest selling children’s author in the world until her death exactly twenty years ago. Eliot believes that Miriam was deliberately poisoned. And when he tells Susan that he has hidden the identity of Miriam’s killer inside his book, Susan knows she’s in trouble once again. As Susan works on Pünd’s Last Case, a story set in an exotic villa in the South of France, she uncovers more and more parallels between the past and the present, the fictional and the real world – until suddenly she finds that she has become a target herself. It seems that someone in Eliot’s family doesn’t want the book to be written. And they...

From the creator of Jurassic Park and ER Egyptologist Harold Barnaby has just made the discovery of the century. While retranslating some old hieroglyphs, he has found clues to the location of a pharaoh’s lost tomb. But this discovery leads him to make the ultimate choice: rather than share his find with the rest of the world, Professor Barnaby is determined to locate the tomb and keep whatever treasure he finds inside for himself. But to pull off the greatest heist in the archaeological history, Barnaby will need help. Enter Robert Pierce, a transient freelance writer looking for excitement. They put together a five-man team, including a smuggler, an international thief, and the fifth Earl of Wheatston to bankroll the project, and set out to plunder the pharaoh’s lost tomb. But can this ragtag team survive the perils of the Egyptian desert and uncover what the centuries have kept hidden? And even if they find the treasure, can they escape with it alive?

Reconstruction in a Globalizing World

Reconstruction in a Globalizing World

Autor: David Prior

Número de Páginas: 333

As one of the most complexly divisive periods in American history, Reconstruction has been the subject of a rich scholarship. Historians have studied the period’s racial views, political maneuverings, divisions between labor and capital, debates about woman suffrage, and of course its struggle between freed slaves and their former masters. Yet, on each of these fronts scholarship has attended overwhelmingly to the eastern United States, especially the South, thereby neglecting important transnational linkages. This volume, the first of its kind, will examine Reconstruction’s global connections and contexts in ways that, while honoring the field’s accomplishments, move it beyond its southern focus. The volume will bring together prominent and emerging scholars to showcase the deepening interplay between scholarships on Reconstruction and on America’s place in world history. Through these essays, Reconstruction in a Globalizing World will engage two dynamic fields of study to the benefit of them both. By demonstrating that the South and the eastern United States were connected to other parts of the globe in complex and important ways, the volume will challenge scholars of...

The Welsh in Iowa

The Welsh in Iowa

Autor: Cherilyn A Walley

Número de Páginas: 254

The Welsh in Iowa is the history of the little known Welsh immigrant communities in the American Midwestern state of Iowa. Dr. Walley’s book identifies what made the Welsh unique as immigrants to North America, and as migrants and settlers in a land built on such groups. With research rooted in documentary evidence and supplemented with community and oral histories, The Welsh in Iowa preserves and examines Welsh culture as it was expressed in middle America by the farmers and coal miners who settled or passed through the prairie state as it grew to maturity in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. This work seeks to not only document the Welsh immigrants who lived in Iowa, but to study the Welsh as a distinct ethnic group in a state known for its ethnic heritage.

Autor: Jerry Vermilye

Número de Páginas: 302

Built to resemble an old New England barn, the Boothbay Playhouse operated from 1937 to 1974, under two separate managements, as a professional summer theatre. In the old-resident-company tradition, a different play was presented each week from June to September- and at prices that seem unbelievable today. But even then the challenge of filling seats was a perennial uphill battle that led to ongoing financial crunches for both managements until surmounting losses forced its closure. This is the story of that landmark theatre's trials, triumphs and tribulations, told by someone who was there for five of those 37 years. Illustrated with 60 photos, the volume also features casts and credits for all Playhouse productions

Soldiers of Light and Love

Autor: Jacqueline Jones

Número de Páginas: 289

Soldiers of Light and Love is an acclaimed study of the reform-minded northerners who taught freed slaves in the war-torn Reconstruction South. Jacqueline Jones's book, first published in 1980, focuses on the nearly three hundred women who served in Georgia in the chaotic decade following the Civil War. Commissioned by the American Missionary Association and other freedmen's aid societies, these middle-class New Englanders saw themselves as the postbellum, evangelical heirs of the abolitionist cause. Specific in compass, but wide-ranging in significance, Soldiers of Light and Love illuminates the complexity of class, race, and gender issues in early Victorian America.

Autor: Alicia K. Jackson

Número de Páginas: 143

Owned by his father, Isaac Harold Anderson (1835–1906) was born a slave but went on to become a wealthy businessman, grocer, politician, publisher, and religious leader in the African American community in the state of Georgia. Elected to the state senate, Anderson replaced his white father there, and later shepherded his people as a founding member and leader of the Colored Methodist Episcopal church. He helped support the establishment of Lane College in Jackson, Tennessee, where he subsequently served as vice president. Anderson was instrumental in helping freed people leave Georgia for the security of progressive safe havens with significantly large Black communities in northern Mississippi and Arkansas. Eventually under threat to his life, Anderson made his own exodus to Arkansas, and then later still, to Holly Springs, Mississippi, where a vibrant Black community thrived. Much of Anderson’s unique story has been lost to history—until now. In The Recovered Life of Isaac Anderson, author Alicia K. Jackson presents a biography of Anderson and in it a microhistory of Black religious life and politics after emancipation. A work of recovery, the volume captures the life of a ...

The enigmatic and elusive filmmaker Stanley Kubrick has not been treated to a full-length biography in over twenty years. Stanley Kubrick: An Odyssey fills that gap. It is based on access to the latest research, especially into his archive at the University of the Arts, London, and other papers as well as new interviews with family members and those who worked with him. It offers comprehensive and in-depth coverage of Kubrick's personal, private, public, and working life. We discuss not only the making of his films, but also about those he wanted but failed to make like Burning Secret, Napoleon, Aryan Papers, and A.I. We discover what he was doing when he was not making films. This biography will puncture a few myths about this allegedly reclusive filmmaker, who created some of the most important works of art of the twentieth century
