Download or read book Innocent Revenge written by Nishakar Sethy and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2024-06-25 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Innocent Revenge" typically refers to a situation where someone seeks retribution or justice in a subtle, indirect, or seemingly harmless manner. It often involves actions or strategies that appear innocent or benign on the surface but are intended to subtly retaliate against someone who has wronged them. For example, instead of confronting someone directly, a person might engage in innocent revenge by subtly undermining their reputation or subtly thwarting their plans. This could include actions like spreading mild gossip, giving backhanded compliments, or strategically withholding information. The term "innocent" in this context implies that the actions taken are not overtly malicious or harmful, but rather reflect a desire to even the score in a more subtle and indirect way. It's a way for someone to express their dissatisfaction or seek retribution without resorting to more aggressive or confrontational methods. However, it's important to note that while the actions in innocent revenge may seem harmless, they can still have negative consequences and perpetuate negative dynamics between individuals. Therefore, it's often more productive to address conflicts directly and openly rather than resorting to passive-aggressive tactics.

Download or read book Anguish of the Innocent written by Ellen Williamson and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2005-11-17 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ANGUISH OF THE INNOCENT is a story about how innocent people suffer because of the guilty and the extent some would go to defend them. How can the vengeful actions of one person cause so much pain and anguish to so many innocent people? How could Joshua and Louisa Posey’s lives of peace and tranquility be so greatly effected by one man? Wade Posey and John Mayo see the pain caused by this single act of revenge and take it upon themselves to prove the innocence of their friend, Joshua Posey. Mattie Posey Mayo is caught up in helping protect her dearest friends. She takes extreme measures and is put in danger in her efforts to keep them from the clutches of the Ku Klux Klan. How could the course of Billy Richard’s entire future be so drastically changed by this same action? His grief over the death of his father and the possibility of the death of an innocent man causes him to react in ways that would change his life forever. John Mayo compromises his integrity and goes to great lengths to help him. Some said it all started at the wedding of Mattie Posey and John Mayo - but I really think it started long before then. I suppose Red Sawyer had it in his heart to lash out at some black man, some black family - any black family - it was just that Louisa Posey exerted a bit of independence which Red interpreted as defiance. Red hated defiance, which was difficult to understand since he defied much of the social decorum of his time. He had no idea how his one act of revenge would affect so many innocent people in Philadelphia, Mississippi or how the people he cared about most would suffer from one cowardly act. He should have known, but revenge dominated his thoughts, determined his actions and set the course of a lot of lives. VENGEANCE IS MINE; I WILL REPAY, SAITH THE LORD. (The Bible - Romans 12:19b)

Vanessa “Michael” Munroe deals in information—expensive information—working for corporations, heads of state, private clients, and anyone else who can pay for her unique brand of expertise. Born to missionary parents in lawless central Africa, Munroe took up with an infamous gunrunner and his mercenary crew when she was just fourteen. As his protégé, she earned the respect of the jungle's most dangerous men, cultivating her own reputation for years until something sent her running. After almost a decade building a new life and lucrative career from her home base in Dallas, she's never looked back. Until now. A Texas oil billionaire has hired her to find his daughter who vanished in Africa four years ago. It’s not her usual line of work, but she can’t resist the challenge. Pulled deep into the mystery of the missing girl, Munroe finds herself back in the lands of her childhood, betrayed, cut off from civilization, and left for dead. If she has any hope of escaping the jungle and the demons that drive her, she must come face-to-face with the past that she’s tried for so long to forget. The first book in the Vanessa Michael Munroe series, gripping, ingenious, and impeccably paced, The Informationist marks the arrival or a thrilling new talent. “Stevens’s blazingly brilliant debut introduces a great new action heroine, Vanessa Michael Munroe, who doesn’t have to kick over a hornet’s nest to get attention, though her feral, take-no-prisoners attitude reflects the fire of Stieg Larsson’s Lisbeth Salander….Thriller fans will eagerly await the sequel to this high-octane page-turner.” —Publishers Weekly, starred, boxed review

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marmaduke Pickthall was a prolific British novelist, essayist, journalist, and short story writer who was positively received by his contemporaries for his fictional oeuvre, but is hardly known in the current literary world. Despite his obvious talents, Pickthall was unfortunately ignored when the English literary canon was formed in the mid-twentieth century. Today, he is only remembered for his conversion to Islam, his Turkish sympathies, and his translation of the Holy Quran to English in 1930. Ebtisam A. Sadiq, Naela H. Danish, and Afra S. Al-Shiban rely on extensive research of nineteenth-century British literature with the hope of reintroducing Pickthall to the literary world. In comprehensive analysis that includes the forgotten authors Eastern novels, Western tales, and collections of short stories, the researchers utilize contemporary theories of criticismparticularly postcolonialism, modern realist traditions, and feminismto scrutinize and highlight the nature of his contribution to English literature. Included are examinations of Pickthalls affiliation or withdrawal from literary traditions like Victorianism and Modernism and what exactly determines his canonical status. Marmaduke Pickthall Reinstated shares research and examinations of a forgotten authors literary works with the intent that they finally find a long overdue place in mainstream English literature.
