Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE young man drew up his horse at the side of the dusty road and looked across the barbed-wire fence into the orchard beyond. Far distant against the horizon could be seen the blue mountain range of the Big Horns, sharp-toothed, with fields of snow lying in the gulches. But in the valley basin where he rode an untempered sun, too hot for May, beat upon his brown neck and through the gray flannel shirt stretched taut across his flat back. The trees were clouds of soft blossoms and the green alfalfa beneath looked delightfully cool. Warm and dry from travel as he was, that shadowy paradise of pink and white bloom and lush deep grass called mightily to him. A reader of character might have guessed that handsome Larry Silcott followed the line of least resistance. If his face betrayed no weakness, certainly it showed self-satisfaction, an assured smug acceptance of the fact that he was popular and knew it. Yet his friends, and he had many of them, would have protested that word smug. He was a good fellow, amiable, friendly, anxious to please. At dance and round-up he always had a smile or a laugh ready.

Book excerpt: Diving for sea urchins is a competitive business, and Mickey Sutter knows some of the divers are hoping she'll quit after losing her husband in an automobile accident. Don't hold your breath. She's tougher and far more stubborn than most people realize. With her nephew on board as crew, Mickey pilots Perseverance toward Neah Bay, located on the northwest tip of Washington's Olympic Peninsula. She's ready for opening day of the season, but nothing prepares her for finding the body of a good friend--dead in the bottom of his fishhold. The Coast Guard and local police treat his death as an accident, but Mickey is bothered by some unexplained details and starts her own investigation. When her snooping turns up evidence of poaching, she reports it to the proper authorities. The next morning, she finds a threatening note on her boat, warning her to mind her own business. Mickey is furious, and it fuels her growing suspicion that one of the poachers murdered her friend. Convinced she knows who did it, the search for proof almost gets her killed.

  • Release : 2022-04-05
  • ISBN : 1909961779
  • Pages : 292 pages

Download or read book Troubled Water written by Jens Mühling and published by Haus Publishing. This book was released on 2022-04-05 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A history of the countries bordering the Black Sea told through the stories of the people who live there. Fringing the Black Sea is a diverse array of countries, some centuries old and others emerging only after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Jens Mühling travels through this region, telling the stories of the people he meets along the way in order to paint a picture of the mix of cultures found here and to understand the present against a history stretching back to the arrival of Ancient Greek settlers and beyond. A fluent Russian speaker with a knack for gaining the trust of those he meets, Mühling brings together a cast of characters as diverse as the stories he hears, all of whom are willing to tell him their complex, contradictory, and often fantastical tales full of grief and legend. He meets descendants of the so-called Pontic Greeks, whom Stalin deported to Central Asia and who have now returned; Circassians who fled to Syria a century ago and whose great-great-grandchildren have returned to Abkhazia; and members of ethnic minorities like the Georgian Mingrelians or Bulgarian Muslims, expelled to Turkey in the summer of 1989. Mühling captures the region’s uneasy alliance of tradition and modernity and the diverse humanity of those who live there.

Book The Angel that Troubled the Waters

Download or read book The Angel that Troubled the Waters written by Thornton Wilder and published by New York Coward-McCann 1928.. This book was released on 1928 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his Foreword to The Angel That Troubled the Waters and Other Plays, published in 1928, Wilder explained that almost all the playlets in the book are religious, "but religious in that dilute fashion that is a believer's concession to a contemporary standard of good manners." He wanted to explore religious themes and questions without being preachy, or didactic ... In fact, it was often his intention in such playlets as this one to stand the biblical story on its head -to shake up the language, as it were. He also said--about his plays dealing with religious themes and stories--that in "these matters beyond logic, beauty is the only persuasion."--Www.throntonwilder.com.
