Dozens of cows and bulls go on the rampage, injured and crazed. In the chaos, the burned body of a young woman is found at the side of the road. Her death has no apparent link to the carnage. Commissario Soneri is assigned the case. It is a welcome distraction: his mercurial lover Angela has decided to pursue other options, leaving him even more morose than usual. The dead woman is identified as Nina Iliescu, a Romanian immigrant whose beauty had enchanted a string of wealthy lovers. Temptress, muse, angel - she was all things to all men. Her murder conceals a crime and a sacrilege, and even in death she has a surprise waiting for Soneri.

Download or read book Gold Frankincense and Myrrh written by Marcia Johnson Cole and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2013-11 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whatever happened to the gifts of the Magi? This book traces them from their point of origin through the thirty-three years of Jesus' life, each ultimately becoming an integral part of the crucifixion. Many Biblical characters are utilized including the Magi, Lazarus, Mary of Bethany, Nicodemus, the Rich Young Ruler, Herod, Archelaus, Martha, Pilate and others. The Bible provides the overall outline and the use of Biblical truth gives validity to the fictional account. Because the plot is supported by Biblical passages and so intricately woven, a reader will almost be convinced the resolution is what really happened to the gifts although it is fiction. Some readers might read this book for its mystery; others out of mere curiosity; some for its poetic symbolic foreshadowing; and others for its Biblical background, but it is my fond hope that all readers will be intrigued enough to study the Bible, for within it they shall discover marvelous stories beyond imagination! And while this story is fiction, those are not!

This isolated village relies on the salame factory founded in the post-war years by Palmiro Rodolfi, and now run by his son, Paride. On arrival, Soneri is greeted by anxious rumours about the factory's solvency and the younger Rodolfi's whereabouts. Not long afterwards, a decomposing body is found in the woods. In the shadow of Montelupo, carabinieri prepare to apprehend their chief suspect - an ageing woodsman who defended the same mountains from S.S. commandos during the war.

Download or read book How to Sit on the Throne of the Godless God of the Seventh Day written by Venerable Zen Master Vajra Karuna and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2020-06-17 with total page 634 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps you’ve thought that the traditional ways of understanding God are lacking in resonance and relevance—that there must be more to the concept of divinity than the anthropomorphic, gender-exclusionary, ethically and logically problematic God of Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. If so, this beautiful book may be the path to enlightenment that you’ve been seeking. Uthimaniyya, or Trans-Sufism, embraces the idea that there is an ultimate spiritual experience, called The Consciousness of the Eternal Now, or Sitting on the Throne of God. This experience is not dependent on any past religion—instead, it is realized through observing a mathematically mystical version of the Seventh Day (the Throne Sabbath) that is more compatible with a belief in God as everything, and everything as God. Since a God that is everything cannot have a personhood, it is referred to as the impersonal God, or the Godless God. The Throne Sabbath is based on a radical reinterpretation of the biblical and qur’anic myth of the creation of the world in six days, and a seventh day when the Creator rested (Bible) or retreated to His throne (Qur’an). Inspiring and transcendent, How to Sit on the Throne of the Godless God is the guide you need to access a new viewpoint.
