Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ambassador's Wife, Vol. 3 of 3 Here, all is on a different footing. At the diplomatic dinners - at court - every where, the leading Russians are naturally invited to meet their Ambassador; and as it frequently happens that they owe their introductions in Paris to sources wholly disconnected with the Imperial crown, (such as former obligations of the late King during his residence at Mitt tau, or civilities bestowed in St. Petersburg, upon former Ambassadors, or travellers of the French nation, ) - the task is often perplexing.

Book excerpt: From a real-life ambassador's wife and the acclaimed author of Exile Music comes a harrowing novel about the kidnapping of an American woman in the Middle East and the heartbreaking choices she and her husband each must make in the hope of being reunited. When bohemian artist Miranda meets British ambassador Finn in the ancient stone streets of an Islamic city, the course of her life alters in extraordinary ways. Their marriage gives her the luxury to paint whenever she wants, a staff to wait on her, and a young daughter she adores, but she loses the freedom to wander where she likes and to meet the Muslim women she is secretly teaching to paint. Her husband also makes Miranda a target: One sunny afternoon while hiking in the mountains, she is brutally kidnapped. As Finn struggles to save his family and his career, and Miranda grows close to a stranger’s child in captivity, the secrets he and Miranda have each sought to hide place them and those who trust them in peril. Not even freedom could restore the happiness that once was theirs.

Download or read book The Doctor s Wife written by Mary Elizabeth Braddon and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Doctor's Wife: A Novel John Gilbert was an elderly man, with a young son. He had married late in life, and his wife had died very soon after the birth of this son. It was for this reason, most likely, that the surgeon loved his child as children are rarely loved by their fathers - with an earnest, over-anxious devotion, which from the very first had been something womanly in its character, and which grew with the child's growth. Mr. Gilbert's mind was narrowed by the circle in which he lived. He had inherited his own patients and the parish patients from his father, who had been a surgeon before him, and who had lived in the same house, with the same red lamp over the little old-fashioned Surgery-door, for eight-and-forty years, and had died, leaving the house, the practice, and the red lamp to his son.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pastor's Wife The aunt, a serious strong lady, was engaged for political meetings in the north, and had gone away to them that very morning, leaving a letter and her house at Ingeborg's disposal for so long as the dentist needed her. The dentist, being the best that money could buy, hardly needed her at all. He pounced unerringly and at once on the right tooth and pulled it out. There were no stoppings, no delays, no pain, and no aunt. Never was a life more beautifully cleared. Ingeborg went away down Harley Street free, and with ten pounds in her pocket. For the rest of this one day, for an hour or two to-morrow morning before setting out for Paddington and home, she could do exactly as she liked. Why, there's nothing to prevent me going anywhere this evening, she thought, stopping dead as the full glory of the situation slowly dawned on her. Why, I could go out somewhere really grand to dinner, just as people do I expect in all the books I'm not let read, and then I could go to the play - nobody could prevent me. Why, I could go to a music-hall if I chose, and still nobody could prevent me! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ambassadors, Vol. 2 IT was n't the first time Strether had sat alone in the great dim church - still less was it the first of his giving himself up, so far as conditions permitted, to its beneficent action on his nerves. He had been to Notre Dame with Waymarsh, he had been there with Miss Gostrey, he had been there with Chad Newsome, and had found the place, even in company, such a refuge from the obsession of his problem that, with renewed pressure from that source, he had not um naturally recurred to a remedy meeting the case, for the moment, so indirectly, no doubt, but so relievingly. He was conscious enough that it was only for the mo ment, but good moments if he could call them good still had their value for a man who by this time struck himself as living almost disgracefully from hand to mouth. Having so well learnt the way, he had lately made the pilgrimage more than once by himself - had quite stolen off, taking an unnoticed chance and making no point of speaking of the adventure when restored to his friends.
