Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Laughing Cavalier The air itself felt heavy as if with the weight Of impending doom. The little city lay quiet and at peace; a soft breeze from the south lightly fanned the girl's cheeks. She leaned her elbows on the window-sill and rested her chin in her hands. The moon was not up and yet it was not dark; a mysterious light still lingered on the horizon far away Where earth and sea met in a haze Of purple and indigo. From the little garden down below there rose the subtle fragrance Of early spring Of wet earth and budding trees, and the dim veiled distance was full Of strange sweet sounds, the call of night-birds, the shriek Of sea-gulls astray from their usual haunts.
