This book details more than forty people's memories, cleverly incorporated by the author into his vivid account of what Hastings endured when it was a 'front-line' town - and of its great defiance and fortitude in the face of the enemy.
Ein Fall für die forensische Genealogie
Peter Coldrick hatte keine Vergangenheit; zu dem Schluss kam man nach Jahren persönlicher und professioneller Nachforschungen. Dann beauftragte er den forensischen Genealogen Morton Farrier mit der Suche - einen hartnäckigen, entschlossenen Mann, der vor keinem Mittel zurückschreckt, der Vergangenheit auf die Spur zu kommen. Mit dem Fall Coldrick steht Morton vor seiner bislang schwierigsten und gefährlichsten Aufgabe, die seine gesamten investigativen und genealogischen Fähigkeiten auf die Probe stellt. Indessen gibt es auch andere, die Interesse an der Coldrick Familie zeigen, Leute, die vor nichts Halt machen, die Vergangenheit zu verbergen - nicht einmal vor Mord. Als Morton beginnt, die mysteriöse Vergangenheit seines Klienten zu enthüllen, wird er auch gezwungen, die dunkle Geschichte seiner eigenen Familie zu konfrontieren, eine Geschichte, über die er wenig weiß.
An all-new follow-up to the side-splitting and bestselling Donald Trump! Activity Book, packed with Trump-related games, puzzles, and fun. "No way," they said, "he won't last 100 days!" But steaming into his final year of office, the POTUS with the moistest has reigned supreme, and now he wants more (pending rubber-stamping of his nomination). The run-in to the 2020 election will be a rollercoaster, and the answer to the question of who will be sitting next to the Donald in the front car as the Democratic candidate will soon be answered. Bigger! Boldlier! Betterlier! The follow-up to last year's sold-out edition, The Unofficial Donald Trump Yearbook 2020 will feature a side-splitting potpourri of Donald-related fun and Trump-ernalia: Mr Potus Head (of State) game! Dazzling Donald pin-ups and pics! Wall craft game--using your pretend bricks to build a wall to keep out pretend baddies! Trump temporary tattoos! Trump top tunes! Trump tall tales! All this and more will delight and amuse you as you try to stay sane in the face of the daily news.
This book contains five scripts, three of which I owe a great debt of gratitude to Tony Reynolds as they are adaptations of stories taken from his wonderful book of Sherlock Holmes stories 'The Lost Stories of Sherlock Holmes' - The Adventure Of The Medium, The Giant Rat of Sumatra and The Adventure of The Amazonian Explorer. As for the others, "Holmes Alone" is a light-hearted romp, that borrows elements and characters from several other Conan Doyle tales. "The Mazarin Malediction" is my attempt to embellish that oft-maligned story, "The Mazarin Stone". Almost always it's this story in particular that is singled out for harsh criticism. Yet I have always enjoyed the tale, and the others in the collection entitled "The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes". "Malediction" is my homage to ACD's original, written and performed with great affection and enjoyment. To paraphrase Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. I have wrought my simple plan if I brought one hour of glee to the Sherlock fan, and the Doyle devotee.
