Download or read book In Another Time written by Jillian Cantor and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2019-03-05 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Jillian Cantor’s In Another Time is a love song to the most powerful of all human emotions: hope. It is the story of Max and Hanna, two star-crossed lovers fighting to stay together during an impossible moment in history. It is gripping, mysterious, romantic, and altogether unique. I was enchanted by this beautiful, heartbreaking novel.” — Ariel Lawhon, author of I Was Anastasia A sweeping historical novel that spans Germany, England, and the United States and follows a young couple torn apart by circumstance leading up to World War II—and the family secret that may prove to be the means for survival. 1931, Germany. Bookshop owner Max Beissinger meets Hanna Ginsberg, a budding concert violinist, and immediately they feel a powerful chemistry. It isn’t long before they fall in love and begin making plans for the future. As their love affair unfolds over the next five years, Hitler comes to power. Their love is tested with the new landscape and the realities of war, not the least of which is that Hanna is Jewish and Max is not. But unbeknownst to Hanna is the fact that Max has a secret, which causes him to leave for months at a time—a secret that Max is convinced will help him save Hanna if Germany becomes too dangerous for her because of her religion. In 1946, Hanna Ginsberg awakens in a field outside of Berlin. Disoriented and afraid, she has no memory of the past ten years and no idea what has happened to Max. With no information as to Max’s whereabouts—or if he is even still alive—she decides to move to London to live with her sister while she gets her bearings. Even without an orchestra to play in, she throws herself completely into her music to keep alive her lifelong dream of becoming a concert violinist. But the music also serves as a balm to heal her deeply wounded heart and she eventually gets the opening she long hoped for. Even so, as the days, months, and years pass, taking her from London to Paris to Vienna to America, she continues to be haunted by her forgotten past, and the fate of the only man she has ever loved and cannot forget. Told in alternating viewpoints—Max in the years leading up to WWII, and Hanna in the ten years after—In Another Time is a beautiful novel about love and survival, passion and music, across time and continents.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After her father’s death, young Anne Beddingfeld moves to London with her meagre inheritance, hopeful and ready to meet adventure. She witnesses a fatal accident at a Tube station and picks up a cryptic note dropped by the anonymous doctor who appeared on the scene. When Anne learns of a murder at the estate that the dead man was on his way to visit, it confirms her suspicion that the man in the brown suit who lost the note was not a real doctor. With her clue in hand she gains a commission from the newspaper leading the search for the “man in the brown suit,” and her investigation leads her to take passage on a South Africa–bound ocean liner. On board, she meets a famous socialite, a fake missionary, a possible secret service agent, and the M.P. at whose estate the second murder occurred. She learns about a secretive criminal mastermind known only as the Colonel and of stolen diamonds connected to it all. During the voyage, she evades an attempt on her life, and in South Africa she escapes from a kidnapping and barely survives another attack on her at Victoria Falls. She falls in love, finds the diamonds, and discovers the truth about the two deaths in London that started it all. Finally, she confronts the mysterious criminal mastermind, the Colonel. Published in 1924 by the Bodley Head, The Man in the Brown Suit is Agatha Christie’s fourth novel. Unlike the classic murder mysteries that made her famous, The Man in the Brown Suit, like her second novel The Secret Adversary, is an international crime thriller. This book is part of the Standard Ebooks project, which produces free public domain ebooks.

Book excerpt: Emmy award winner Todd Easterling, who has worked with HBO and was discovered by the Garon-Brooke Literary Agency of John Grisham fame, aims at the suspense-thriller genre with The First Witness, a CIA conspiracy story reminiscent of books by Tom Clancy, Brad Thor, David Baldacci, and James Patterson. When a top Washington Post reporter discovers what he believes is an unauthorized CIA and military mission, he finds himself caught in the middle of a global crisis, international intrigue, and enamored with a beautiful and exotic woman he desperately wants to trust. Shawn Coyne, as Senior Editor at Doubleday/Random House, said of Todd's writing, "This is certainly a thriller that builds to global dimensions and I liked the way Mr. Easterling tackled the plot by having his journalist piece together the clues. The final revelation is also believable and consistent with the pervading paranoia in DC."The story follows Tom Lassiter in a fast-paced race to separate facts from propaganda, and ends in a heart-stopping glimpse of the new world we live in.

Download or read book Marcos Legacy Revisited written by Erick San Juan Dr and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-07-05 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Issues surrounding the much talked about Marcos Gold for several decades now. Author's Notes: -A compromise among the concerned parties will successfully fast track the much-awaited distribution of the Marcos earthly possessions. It is high time for the government to consider setting up a Gold Commission and appropriately declassifying the members of the late President's (FM) "Umbrella Foundation." Then and only then can we ascertain if there indeed is an iota of truth to this fabulous fortune, or if it is simply just another grand sting operation of such great magnitude. So many stones have circulated about the so-called fabled Marcos gold hoard; A good number of con-artists, carpetbaggers, and operators nave all provided conflicting data and information about those treasures, either to make a fast buck or to aggravate the mounting confusion, so that, in the end, no one would eventually believe that this hoard did exist after all. Our leaders should carefully consider how to deal with the other country claimants and the banking Mafia (big bankers who keep these fabled war loots). We do not have to fight them, we just need to get what's due us and what's rightfully ours. This will be the great big challenge to the administration. President Ramos has started it, and has led us to our exit from the International Monetary Fund in March 1998. If President Estrada does it right, coupled with his undoubtedly close relationship with the Marcoses, his administration is bound to achieve more. Let us start getting our act together. And may the good God usher our new leaders toward this end.
