Download or read book Hugger Mugger written by Robert B. Parker and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2001-06-01 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It's easy to see why Parker's snappy banter and cynical eye have kept fans turning pages for 25 years . . . his wisecracks, combined with Parker's shorthand flair for scathing characterization, make for a satisfying read," said Entertainment Weekly of last year's Hush Money. Now Parker presents Spenser with a deceptively dangerous and multi-layered case: Someone has been killing racehorses at stables across the south, and the Boston P.I. travels to Georgia to protect the two-year-old destined to become the next Secretariat. When Spenser is approached by Walter Clive, president of Three Fillies Stables, to find out who is threatening his horse Hugger Mugger, he can hardly say no: He's been doing pro bono work for so long his cupboards are just about bare. Disregarding the resentment of the local Georgia law enforcement, Spenser takes the case. Though Clive has hired a separate security firm, he wants someone with Spenser's experience to supervise the operation. Despite a veneer of civility, Spenser encounters tensions beneath the surface southern gentility. The case takes an even more deadly turn when the attacker claims a human victim, and Spenser must revise his impressions of the whole Three Fillies organization--and watch his own back as well. With razor-sharp dialogue, eloquently spare prose, and some of the best supporting characters to grace the printed page, Hugger Mugger is grand entertainment.

Download or read book Hugger Mugger in the Louvre written by Elliot Paul and published by Courier Dover Publications. This book was released on 2015-03-02 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The gendarmes are baffled and all Paris is agog at the disappearance of a rare Watteau print. Enter master sleuth Homer Evans, whose hilarious approach to crime-solving follows a twisted trail from the darkest recesses of the Louvre to underworld lairs, the studios of shady art dealers, and an insane asylum. Evans and his zany associates—including his sharpshooting girlfriend, Mademoiselle Montana, and his drinking buddy, Gonzo—trace a bizarre series of clues to uncover an ever-thickening plot involving fraud, kidnapping, and murder. Author Elliot Paul satirized the conventions of detective fiction with the first Homer Evans adventure, The Mysterious Mickey Finn. This sequel, hailed as "an excellent cocktail" by The New Republic, offers another furious frolic that upends every convention of the traditional murder mystery.

Download or read book Hugger Mugger Cloak and Dagger written by Yashera Vinthe and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2021-04-07 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yashera Vinthe, the author, attempts to answer some of the haunting questions that plague us human beings – especially at a time when we arrive at a crossroads in our lives – questions that bother us sometimes to the point of despair, depression or even suicide. Questions like “Is this all there is to life?”, “Why do I feel so empty inside?”, “What am I missing in life?”, Why does life seem so unfair?”, “Why am I not happy?”, “How do I get to live a fulfilled and abundant life?”, and variations of these. A very few of us escape these questions, while the vast majority of us continue to suffer in silence or ignorance. Yashera paints a picture of the dilemmas she faced and the path she finally chose to pursue when faced with her own crossroads. Her answers to some of these questions are forthrightly hard hitting and even brutal at times, but her bold and different perspective on life are surprisingly comforting and believable and even do-able. She hopes her book will aid suffering people find relief in her straightforward discourse and guide them in their pursuit of joy.

Download or read book Socially Restorative Urbanism written by Kevin Thwaites and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-08-22 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The need for a human-orientated approach to urbanism is well understood, and yet all too often this dimension remains lacking in urban design. In this book the authors argue for and develop socially restorative urbanism – a new conceptual framework laying the foundations for innovative ways of thinking about the relationship between the urban spatial structure and social processes to re-introduce a more explicit people-centred element into urban place-making and its adaptation. Focusing on this interplay between humans and the built environment, two new concepts are developed: the transitional edge – a socio-spatial concept of the urban realm; and Experiemics – a participative process that acts to redress imbalances in territorial relationships, defined in terms of the awareness of mine, theirs, ours and yours (MTOY). In this way, Socially Restorative Urbanism shows how professional practice and community understanding can be brought together in a mutually interdependent and practical way. Its theoretical and practical principles are applicable across a wide range of contexts concerning human benefit through urban environmental change and experience, and it will be of interest to readers in the social sciences and environmental psychology, as well as the spatial planning and design disciplines.
