Her mother is a beautiful, artistically talented woman who resides in New York. As their child, Liliane’s life is divided between those two very different worlds—worlds that inspire her to find herself in both the present and in her ancestors’ pasts.

McManus’s Two Can Keep a Secret in this “twisty, sumptuous dark fairy tale of a mystery” (Kara Thomas, author of The Cheerleaders) about estranged friends who reunite when someone commits the murder they’d planned—but didn’t go through with—and leaves one of their own to take the fall. Poppy, Lily, and Belladonna would do anything to protect their best friend, Raven. So when they discovered he was suffering abuse at the hands of his stepmother, they came up with a lethal plan: petals of poppy, belladonna, and lily in her evening tea so she’d never be able to hurt Raven again. But someone got cold feet, the plot faded to a secret of the past, and the group fell apart. Three years later, on the eve of Raven’s seventeenth birthday, his stepmother turns up dead. But it’s only belladonna found in her tea, and it’s only Belladonna who’s carted off to jail. Desperate for help, Belle reaches out to her estranged friends to prove her innocence. They answer the call, but no one is prepared for what comes next. Now, everyone has something to lose and something equally dangerous to hide. And when the tangled web of secrets and betrayal is finally unwound, what lies at its heart will change the group forever.

Download or read book Questings written by Jonathan Bryan and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2009-09 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This realistic parable invites your questings for your own answers to persistent questions about living, relationships, spiritual development, and God. Why did that beautiful young mother have to . . . ? How could this decent kid become such an irresponsible teen, then a powerful, hard businessman, then . . . ? Why would a wise and colorful earth-mother, Nonchalance McFinn, living with her daughter Lilly-Belle in a shack on Nomanisan Island, offer such . . . ? Can you get the scientific account of our universe to dance happily with the biblical account? (Yes.) Why can't a bright young woman and her headstrong father reconcile? Why do good things happen to bad people? Why did the difference between spruce and cedar cause such a lifetime of consequences? Watch seven people bring seven naive and opposing opinions to the table, and much later express seven well developed but still opposing opinions -- plus deep friendships with one another. Frank Grant's life shows how people become so alienated and how they can reconcile; how they can grow up into mature spirituality; how they can better understand God's character and policies.
