This book was released on 2023-11-08 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Come and meet our Norfolk-based R.E.D. (Retired Extremely Daisy) heroine, as she dives headlong into a spooky tale of witchcraft and dark, dangerous secrets! “One of the best cozy mystery series I’ve ever read!” “A real breath of fresh literary air!” Scraggy Bottom is the tiny Norfolk hamlet time forgot. It’s where Maisie’s sister Doris lives, with around fifty others. Nestled in a remote, wooded area, it found itself with a reputation because of the spooky and the unexplained things that seem to happen there. Some of it might be to do with the village’s resident white witch, Imelda, who uses her mystical powers to do good things. Sadly for her, one false move and all the good is wiped out in a single minute. In that respect at least, Scraggy Bottom is just the same as everywhere else on the planet. When Maisie returns from visiting her sister with a worried expression on her face, Daisy forces the truth out of her. Imelda is Doris’s neighbour, and she’s being persecuted because one of her spells took a drastic turn for the worst. Maisie doesn’t want to bother her friend, but Daisy begins to suspect there’s more to what’s going on than meets the eye. Or the crow’s foot. Or the jackdaw’s wing… Daisy and Aidan decide to ignore the rumours and brave an investigation, but soon after they arrive in the remote hamlet it starts to become clear there’s a bubbling cauldron of evil about to boil over. And no one is safe. Check out the entire Daisy series on the brand new rtgreen website. While you’re there, have a look at our 1920’s historical series too, ‘The Sandie Shaw Mysteries’. Take a break from the world around you, just for a while. Relax with a smile (or several!), and a truly original story. Enjoy!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essentially-English, almost-certainly quirky, and definitely a little crazy, come and meet our feisty R.E.D. (Retired Extremely Daisy) heroine, and find out why she’s such a hit with readers! “One of the best cozy mysteries I’ve ever read!” “A real breath of fresh literary air!” It’s the Great Wiltingham End of Spring Fayre. Everyone is there, including the local landowners Lord and Lady Falconbridge-Stuart. The women are encouraged to dress as flowers, the men as vegetables (no gender-related pun intended!) It is a two-hundred year old festival, after all. Daisy and Aidan are there too, and despite Daisy being virtually ordered to attend as she already has the name of a flower, she starts to enjoy the day. Until things turn darker, that is. Someone is murdered, and with many of those attending disguised by their costumes, it’s not easy to know who is even there to be a suspect. Then someone makes everything easier, by confessing to the crime. It’s the last person anyone expects. At first Daisy is quite prepared to accept the confession, given who it is, but the others persuade her things maybe aren’t as cut-and-dried as they first appear. The Henderson Detective Agency delve a little deeper, and soon discover the dark and hidden past of a village resident, taking them back over forty years as they follow a rocky road that becomes ever more dangerous with each twist and turn. Read all about Daisy, and everything else we create, on the rtgreen website Enjoy!

Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “A fascinating look at how consumers perceive logos, ads, commercials, brands, and products.”—Time How much do we know about why we buy? What truly influences our decisions in today’s message-cluttered world? In Buyology, Martin Lindstrom presents the astonishing findings from his groundbreaking three-year, seven-million-dollar neuromarketing study—a cutting-edge experiment that peered inside the brains of 2,000 volunteers from all around the world as they encountered various ads, logos, commercials, brands, and products. His startling results shatter much of what we have long believed about what captures our interest—and drives us to buy. Among the questions he explores: • Does sex actually sell? • Does subliminal advertising still surround us? • Can “cool” brands trigger our mating instincts? • Can our other senses—smell, touch, and sound—be aroused when we see a product? Buyology is a fascinating and shocking journey into the mind of today's consumer that will captivate anyone who's been seduced—or turned off—by marketers' relentless attempts to win our loyalty, our money, and our minds.
Download or read book The Lost Secret of Speaking Perfect English written by Peter F. Bulmer and published by Strategic Book Publishing & Rights Agency. This book was released on with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you want to learn The Lost Secret of Speaking Perfect English? The Moving Mouth Dictionary technique provides a very simple approach to perfecting English speaking and pronunciation. The book takes a down-to-earth approach for speaking clear English, as it breathes some fresh air into the stuffy corridors of academic learning. It is geared to help students and business people speak impressive and naturally clear English, taking much of the guessing out of pronunciation and spelling. English will become more of a physical activity, rather than a cerebral academic subject. The key is in identifying and improving specifi c types of reverse and forward mouth movements, actions based on using simple vertical mouth movement notations that have simple associations with key phonetics sounds for specifi c letters. The technique’s forward and reverse mouth movements combined with a natural English rhythm also helps trigger and access vocabulary and verbs, while aiding in word retention, fl uency and auto correcting. The book features a dictionary of over 11,000 words, including some of the most diffi cult words in the English language, which have been broken down, putting these notations into “mouthables.” The process draws heavily on early humans’ natural ability to howl and growl, using their mouths vertically. Hence, the lost connection between our near ancestors can aid our ability to speak clear English, an ability we have lost and need to rediscover.

Download or read book Appraisal for Murder written by Elaine Orr and published by Elaine Orr. This book was released on 2011-09-25 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jolie Gentil moves to Great Aunt Madge's bed and breakfast at the Jersey shore, taking her cat Jazz, and joining Madge's pair of prune-eating dogs. Jolie does not view this as a retreat from her embezzling ex-husband, just a smart change. She had no idea her life was about to get even more complicated. Jolie finds work as a real estate appraiser, but a low-life named Joe Pedone demands that Jolie repay some of her husband's gambling debts and she runs into Michael Riordan, her high school crush. She's not sure which one is more trouble. Jolie appraises his mother's house and finds his mother dead in bed. Soon the mundane work of appraising real estate and dodging suggestions that she go to the ten-year high school reunion are mixed with calls from reporters, scary suggestions from Pedone, and requests that she help the local busybody with First Presbyterian's social services work. Jolie balances her fear of Pedone, conviction that Michael is innocent, and sometimes uneasy friendship with long-ago friend Scoobie.

Book excerpt: Darlington Hills, Virginia is a little slice of southern heaven, and there's no place Hadley would rather be after a painful breakup with her locally famous boyfriend, whose face is plastered on every street corner in New Orleans. Fleeing the big city, she travels to Darlington Hills for a job interview, family time with her beloved aunt, and a break from the sad reality of her now-single, party-of-one status. But when Hadley serendipitously snags a last-minute interior design gig and her client's fiancée goes missing, she feels more than a little responsible for the woman's disappearance. Driven by a guilty conscience, Hadley searches for answers while trying to stay focused on her ultimate goal of acing the interview and landing her dream job. Turns out that isn't so easy, with distractions like the dimpled Officer Appley and the mounting danger that has befallen the idyllic small town. LEMON YELLOW LIES is the first book in the Hadley Home Design Mystery Series. If you like sassy sleuths, enchanting small-town settings, twisty plots, and lighthearted whodunnits, you'll love Emily Oberton's new cozy mystery series.
Download or read book A New Dictionary of Americanisms written by Sylva Clapin and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A New Dictionary of Americanisms: Being a Glossary of Words Supposed to Be Peculiar to the United States and the Dominion of Canada A very dull man, and a pertinacious reader - the terms are by no means incompatible - is said to have had Johnson's Dictionary lent to him by some mischievous friend as an interesting new work, and to have read it through from beginning to end, quite unconscious that he was doing anything unusual. He observed, when he returned it, that the author appeared to him a person of considerable information, but that his style was slightly unconnected. The remark had a good deal of truth in it, for a dictionary is not bad reading on the whole. It is much more endurable than a good many of what are called lighter books, and not much more unconnected. What is an Americanism? In a good many instances the name is given to some archaism belated, or some English provincialism that has worked its way into general acceptance in the United States. It is usual to object, when expressions of either kind are classed by. some one as Americanisms, that they are nothing of the kind, which, though in strictness true enough, is a little unpractical; for surely, when words that have become obsolete in the mother country, or are merely "local" here and there, find themselves in wide or universal popularity in America, it is indeed convenient to class them as what they have practically become - Americanisms. Such words, for instance, as shyster, meeching, etc., are for all practical purposes Americanisms now, and are best classed and defined therewith. If we reject them, we must reject also such characteristic words as boss, stoop, portage, etc. Carry it far enough, and we would have hardly anything left but neologisms.
