Book excerpt: Alfred Hitchcock's career spanned more than five decades, during which he directed more than 50 films, many of them indisputable classics: Notorious, Strangers on a Train, Rear Window, Vertigo, North by Northwest, and Psycho, among others. In A Year of Hitchcock: 52 Weeks with the Master of Suspense, authors Jim McDevitt and Eric San Juan provide a comprehensive examination of Hitchcock's film-to-film development, spanning from the beginning of his career in silents to his final film in 1976, including his work on two French propaganda shorts he directed during World War II and segments he directed for Alfred Hitchcock Presents. Organized into 52 chapters and arranged in chronological order, the book invites readers to spend a year with the director's most notable works, all of which are available on DVD. Each film is examined in the context of Hitchcock's career, as the authors consider the themes central to his work; discuss each film's production; comment on the cast, script, and other aspects of the film; and assess the film's value to the Hitchcock viewer. From The Lodger to Family Plot, 68 works directed by Hitchcock are analyzed. Each analysis is supplemented by key film facts, trivia, awards, a guide to his cameos, a filmography, and a listing of available DVD releases. Whether readers decide to undertake the journey through his films one week at a time or pick and choose at their discretion, A Year of Hitchcock will open the eyes of any viewer who wants to better understand this director's evolution as an artist.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The return of a timeless classic of mounting, subtle horror that has haunted generations of readers. A woman is trapped in her own body. She's a speechless, paralyzed, and truly helpless, cared for by her seemingly loving family. But she knows with chilling certainty that one of them is trying to kill her...and will soon strike again...and she is unable to tell anyone or defend herself. Or is she? "A scary one. Lawrence at her best, with a surprising plot and a baffling mystery. " Los Angeles Daily News "Tense, taut and terrific...will disturbingly charge the atmopshere and chill the marrow of your bone. Lawrence is quite successful in capturing mood, character, and a unique situation. Subtle horror that's hard to beat." Montgomery Advertiser "Expertly written, filled with suspense. It will make the reader look over his shoulder and turn on every light in the house." St. Louis Post-Dispatch "This is on a different plane of horror. The comfort and luxury of the suburban home bring out in striking contrast the evil that pervades the sickroom and closes in on its helpless victim. A Grade-A shocker...inspires hair-raising fear in a genteel, immensely effective way" New York Times "Whacking good, written with delicate subtlety and guaranteed to chill the blood." Boston Globe "Hilda Lawrence is more skill than average in the writing of suspense novels, in creating moods of terror and horror. [This] is excellent fare for the fan who is tired of conventional mystery." Capitol Times (Madison, Wis)

Book excerpt: An Amazon Charts bestseller. A double life with a single purpose: revenge. Jane's days at a Midwest insurance company are perfectly ordinary. She blends in well, unremarkably pretty in her floral-print dresses and extra efficient at her low-level job. She's just the kind of woman middle manager Steven Hepsworth likes--meek, insecure, and willing to defer to a man. No one has any idea who Jane really is. Least of all Steven. But plain Jane is hiding something. And Steven's bringing out the worst in her. Nothing can distract Jane from going straight for his heart: allowing herself to be seduced into Steven's bed, to insinuate herself into his career and his family, and to expose all his dirty secrets. It's time for Jane to dig out everything that matters to Steven. So she can take it all away. Just as he did to her.
