Download or read book Home Before Dark written by Riley Sager and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2020-06-30 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the latest thriller from New York Times bestseller Riley Sager, a woman returns to the house made famous by her father’s bestselling horror memoir. Is the place really haunted by evil forces, as her father claimed? Or are there more earthbound—and dangerous—secrets hidden within its walls? What was it like? Living in that house. Maggie Holt is used to such questions. Twenty-five years ago, she and her parents, Ewan and Jess, moved into Baneberry Hall, a rambling Victorian estate in the Vermont woods. They spent three weeks there before fleeing in the dead of night, an ordeal Ewan later recounted in a nonfiction book called House of Horrors. His tale of ghostly happenings and encounters with malevolent spirits became a worldwide phenomenon, rivaling The Amityville Horror in popularity—and skepticism. Today, Maggie is a restorer of old homes and too young to remember any of the events mentioned in her father's book. But she also doesn’t believe a word of it. Ghosts, after all, don’t exist. When Maggie inherits Baneberry Hall after her father's death, she returns to renovate the place to prepare it for sale. But her homecoming is anything but warm. People from the past, chronicled in House of Horrors, lurk in the shadows. And locals aren’t thrilled that their small town has been made infamous thanks to Maggie’s father. Even more unnerving is Baneberry Hall itself—a place filled with relics from another era that hint at a history of dark deeds. As Maggie experiences strange occurrences straight out of her father’s book, she starts to believe that what he wrote was more fact than fiction.

Download or read book Birth of a Jewel written by Terese Neely Pottinger and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2024-02-07 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered if you really mattered in this world, what your purpose was, or what you lived for? As you lie down to sleep at night, do you ever wish you could erase the day and have a do-over or said something you deeply regretted, wishing you could delete the whole conversation like it never happened and begin again? Have you found a comfortable balance between giving and receiving, between guilt and genuine compassion? Have you been in a room full of surface-only conversations and just wanted to excuse yourself because that way of communicating doesn't work for you anymore? And have there been times when you felt a deep void and didn't know how to fill it or where it even was? If you have, welcome. You are not alone. The answers to these questions and more are found in the book you now hold in your hand. I have always believed there are no coincidences, and our choices (as in picking up this book) could be calling us to open ourselves to new and positive ways of approaching challenges and lessons as we move forward in our lives. The Birth of a Jewel is a series of stories that have brought wisdom and inspiration front and center for me, from the life lessons I have gained through my experiences walking on this earth. Some of the stories may have you laughing; some may stop you in your tracks, and the tears will flow; and then others may leave you pondering about your own journey and the lessons you can share with others. We are a people of watchers, so therefore, we are teachers by the way we live our lives. Thought to ponder: What do you live for, and what purpose do you carry that moves you to make a difference?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Malicious Mischief by Marianne Harden Is it strange to have the unemployment office on speed dial? Not for twenty-four-year-old college dropout Rylie Keyes. Her current job at a small retirement home is worlds more important than all her past gigs, though: if she loses this one, she won't be able to stop the forced sale of her and her grandfather's home, a house that has been in the family for ages. But keeping her job means figuring out the truth about a senior citizen who was found murdered while in her care. Explain that one, Miss Keyes. The late Otto Weiner was thought to be a penniless Nazi concentration camp survivor with a silly grudge against Rylie. However, Otto was not a liked man by any means, and his enemies will stop at nothing to keep their part in his murder secret. Forced to dust off the PI training she has to keep hidden from her ex-detective grandfather, Rylie must align with a circus-bike-wheeling Samoan while juggling the attention of two very hot cops who each get her all hot and bothered for very different reasons. And as she trudges through this new realm of perseverance, she has no idea that along the way she just might win, or lose, a little piece of her heart.
