Book excerpt: Kath Rutledge is settling in as the owner of the Weaver’s Cat, a fiber and fabric shop in Blue Plum, Tennessee. But nothing, not even the ghost haunting her shop, prepares her for the mystery that will leave the whole town spinning.... It’s time for Blue Plum’s annual historical festival, and everyone—including Kath and her spunky fiber and needlework group, TGIF—is getting in on the action. Expert spinners are being gathered, and a businessman has approached Kath about using the second-floor windows of her store for part of a reenactment. But the reenactment ends in real-life bloodshed when local baker Reva Louise Snapp is shot—with a bullet from a modern-day gun. Kath has her theories about who wanted to end Reva Louise’s life. But there’s also talk of a sniper stalking Blue Plum, and Kath’s shop is suspected to be the murderer’s hideout. Now Kath, her TGIF pals, and the gloomy ghost, Geneva, must unravel the mystery quickly, or someone else might be left hanging by a thread....

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There's holy hell to pay for Charley Davidson in Eighth Grave After Dark, the New York Times bestseller from Darynda Jones. With twelve hellhounds after her, pregnant Charley Davidson takes refuge at the only place she thinks they can't get to her: the grounds of an abandoned convent. But after months of being cooped up there, Charley is ready to pop. Both metaphorically and literally since she is now roughly the size of a beached whale. Fortunately, a new case has captured her attention, one that involves a murder on the very grounds the team has taken shelter upon. A decades-old murder of the newly-vowed nun she keeps seeing in the shadows is almost enough to pull her out of her doldrums. Charley's been forbidden to step foot off the sacred grounds. While the angry hellhounds can't traverse the consecrated soil, they can lurk just beyond its borders. They have the entire team on edge, especially Reyes. And if Charley didn't know better, she would swear Reyes is getting sick. He grows hotter with every moment that passes, his heat scorching across her skin every time he's near, but naturally he swears he's fine. While the team searches for clues on the Twelve, Charley just wants answers and is powerless to get them. But the mass of friends they've accrued helps. They convince her even more that everyone in her recent life has somehow been drawn to her, as though they were a part of a bigger picture all along. But the good feelings don't last for long because Charley is about to get the surprise of her crazy, mixed-up, supernatural life....

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Clark Institute of Science and Research was built on government property in the state of Montana in order to study stem cell research and the cloning of animals for human consumption. Charles Franks was the CEO. Bryce Edwards and Casey Campbell were scientists. With funds coming in freely, the CEO decided to take his research further. He began cloning humans and then designed toxic and biological weapons. His intent was to create a superhuman militia force to conquer all nations and become ruler of the world. He built an elaborate underground city, where his clone soldiers could live and train. Needing more money to achieve his goal, the CEO secretly began accepting payoffs from leaders of foreign countries. One leader from Africa, by the name of Mocondo, expected to receive superhuman female clones to serve in her military. Bryce Edwards was secretly crossbreeding everything that walked or crawled on the earth, flew in the sky, or swam in the waters. All things were going to be different and new, and he intended to be lord of all. He had no idea that such crossbreeding might come back to haunt him one day. Casey Campbells area of experimentation was to mate with one of Charles Frankss female clones. From that experiment came the most beautiful and powerful being ever created by God or man. Her name was Shakedra.
Download or read book Fire in the Dragon and Other Psychoanalytic Essays on Folklore written by Gža Rh̤eim and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 1992-07-15 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The only Freudian to have been originally trained in folklore and the first psychoanalytic anthropologist to carry out fieldwork, Gza Rcheim (1891-1953) contributed substantially to the worldwide study of cultures. Combining a global perspective with encyclopedic knowledge of ethnographic sources, this Hungarian analyst demonstrates the validity of Freudian theory in both Western and non-Western settings. These seventeen essays, written between 1922 and 1953, are among Rcheim's most significant published writings and are collected here for the first time to introduce a new generation of readers to his unique interpretations of myths, folktales, and legends. From Australian aboriginal mythology to Native American trickster tales, from the Grimm folktale canon to Hungarian folk belief, Rcheim explores a wide range of issues, such as the relationship of dreams to folklore and the primacy of infantile conditioning in the formation of adult fantasy. An introduction by folklorist Alan Dundes describes Rcheim's career, and each essay is prefaced by a brief consideration of its intellectual and bibliographical context.
