Download or read book The Painted Lady written by Stephen F. Wilcox and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2001 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With his eye for the ladies and his knack for Victorian house restorations, how can Elias Hackshaw resist when the beautiful Hester DelGado asks him to help with the renovation of her “painted lady” in Port Erie? Upstate New York’s most irascible and astute weekly newspaper editor, however, is also one of its biggest gadflies and snoops. Before he knows what’s happening, Hackshaw has jumped with both feet into a controversy (over Hester’s garishly painted house) and then into a murder investigation (of a wayward girl who lived with Hester), both of which are at the heart of a complicated scam. And this time, Hack had no part in the clever con job – but try convincing the local police chief and his brawling young deputy, who just happens to be the dead girl’s boyfriend. Toss in a hapless town drunk, a furious boat race down the Erie Canal, and an assortment of quirky small-town characters, and once again you have the elements for a top-drawer comic mystery.

Book excerpt: A heartrending, gripping novel about two sisters in Belle Époque Paris and the young woman forever immortalized as muse for Edgar Degas’ Little Dancer Aged Fourteen. 1878 Paris. Following their father’s sudden death, the van Goethem sisters find their lives upended. Without his wages, and with the small amount their laundress mother earns disappearing into the absinthe bottle, eviction from their lodgings seems imminent. With few options for work, Marie is dispatched to the Paris Opéra, where for a scant seventeen francs a week, she will be trained to enter the famous ballet. Her older sister, Antoinette, finds work as an extra in a stage adaptation of Émile Zola’s naturalist masterpiece L’Assommoir. Marie throws herself into dance and is soon modeling in the studio of Edgar Degas, where her image will forever be immortalized as Little Dancer Aged Fourteen. There she meets a wealthy male patron of the ballet, but might the assistance he offers come with strings attached? Meanwhile Antoinette, derailed by her love for the dangerous Émile Abadie, must choose between honest labor and the more profitable avenues open to a young woman of the Parisian demimonde. Set at a moment of profound artistic, cultural, and societal change, The Painted Girls is a tale of two remarkable sisters rendered uniquely vulnerable to the darker impulses of “civilized society.” In the end, each will come to realize that her salvation, if not survival, lies with the other.
