Download or read book The Friendship Doll written by Kirby Larson and published by Yearling. This book was released on 2012-05-08 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I am Miss Kanagawa. In 1927, my 57 doll-sisters and I were sent from Japan to America as Ambassadors of Friendship. Our work wasn't all peach blossoms and tea cakes. My story will take you from New York to Oregon, during the Great Depression. Though few in this tale are as fascinating as I, their stories won't be an unpleasant diversion. You will make the acquaintance of Bunny, bent on revenge; Lois, with her head in the clouds; Willie Mae, who not only awakened my heart, but broke it; and Lucy, a friend so dear, not even war could part us. I have put this tale to paper because from those 58 Friendship Dolls only 45 remain. I know that someone who chooses this book is capable of solving the mystery of the missing sisters. Perhaps that someone is you.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Sire, a dispatch arrived from Paris. From Duc d'Otrante. Marked 'Extremely Urgent.'" "What is it, Meneval?" Claude-Francois Baron de Meneval took his time to respond. "What is it?" Napoleon repeated impatiently. "Murder, Sire. Lady Margaret, the Empress's lady-in-waiting, was found dead in the antechamber at the Empress's bedroom. Madame Josephine is extremely upset. She believed that Lady Margaret prevented the assassination attempt by the price of her own life..." She could be his wife, but she was not. He could be her husband, but he was not. Something came across the lives of those two people: Kevin Harrison and Lionna Dorset, making it impossible to think about marriage. It was the murder of her uncle, George Dorset the Fifth, a wealthy shipowner. Brian pulled out one of his favorite Cuban cigars, chopped off the end of the cigar with a silver cutter, and used a silver lighter to bring a small blue flame to lit it. "Let us say I came here posthaste to save a certain fair lady from a destiny worse than death." "Meaning?" Looking to the skies, Alice drew from her Turkish cigarette in an ivory holder. "Jail," said Brian laconically, and sent a string of perfect smoke rings to the air, one after another. "Jail?" Her laugh was like a silver bell. "Who would dare to arrest Princess Alice Menshikoff, the grandniece of the czar?" "No one." Brian nodded. "But they would gladly arrest Nancy Walker from Chicago." "Poor girl," murmured Alice. "I already feel sorry for her. What has she done, Brian?" "There were a couple of bank robberies in Chicago three months ago on the tune of two million dollars in gold..."

Download or read book The Extortionist and his Dolls written by Mary Ann Scott and published by Dundurn. This book was released on 1997-10-01 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jessica March is back, sleuthing in Parkdale. She’s on the trail of an extortionist whose known victims are young refugee women students at her school. If the extortionist’s victims refuse his demands for money he hurts them, or he shows them the doll. No one who has seen it is unaffected, and no one will explain its power. Jess and a group of female students are chosen to find out if there are other victims, too traumatized to complain. But the group is almost paralyzed by problems of its own: hot disagreements, personality clashes, jealousies, and worst of all, the possibility of an infiltrator. Someone (wittingly or unwittingly) is warning the extortionist. He evades every potential trap. Jess’s "sort-of" boyfriend is also giving her trouble. Excluded from the hunt for the extortionist, Jon feels discriminated against. Jess tries to placate him, but in doing so wonders if she’s telling him too much. She wonders if he’s passing the information on to his friends, including the very attractive and likeable Anthony, who almost fits the description of the extortionist. Or does he?
