Download or read book The Ghost of White Hart Lane written by Julie Welch and published by Random House. This book was released on 2011-03-10 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Had John lived, he could have been one of the greatest footballers of all time' Jimmy Greaves When John White was killed by a bolt of lightning in 1964, the football world was rocked by the tragedy. White was just 27 years of age. Nicknamed the 'Ghost' for the way that he could drift into space undetected, White played inside-forward for the great double-winning Tottenham Hotspur side of the early sixties. British football was entering a golden period and Bill Nicholson's free-flowing Spurs side was right at the forefront. White himself was on the cusp of greatness. Even alongside giants of the game like Dave Mackay and Danny Blanchflower, he stood out as a playmaker with incredible vision and touch. White lifted the European Cup Winners' Cup for Spurs (the first European trophy won by any British side) and gained 22 caps for Scotland, but he was also a family man. Six months before he died, his beloved wife Sandra, gave birth to their second child, a son called Rob. Rob White never knew his father. The man who was known by hundreds of thousands of football fans across the country, was a complete stranger to him. The Ghost of White Hart Lane is the result of interviews with his father's teammates, followers, and family members. Within these pages Rob White and Julie Welch have built up a portrait, not only of a brilliant and gifted young man, but also of a lost era.

Book excerpt: In The White Mirror, the follow-up to Elsa Hart’s critically acclaimed debut, Jade Dragon Mountain, Li Du, an imperial librarian and former exile in 18th century China, is now an independent traveler. He is journeying with a trade caravan bound for Lhasa when a detour brings them to a valley hidden between mountain passes. On the icy planks of a wooden bridge, a monk sits in contemplation. Closer inspection reveals that the monk is dead, apparently of a self-inflicted wound. His robes are rent, revealing a strange symbol painted on his chest. When the rain turns to snow, the caravan is forced to seek hospitality from the local lord while they wait for the storm to pass. The dead monk, Li Du soon learns, was a reclusive painter. According to the family, his bizarre suicide is not surprising, given his obsession with the demon world. But Li Du is convinced that all is not as it seems. Why did the caravan leader detour to this particular valley? Why does the lord’s heir sleep in the barn like a servant? And who is the mysterious woman traveling through the mountain wilds? Trapped in the snow, surrounded by secrets and an unexplained grief that haunts the manor, Li Du cannot distract himself from memories he’s tried to leave behind. As he discovers irrefutable evidence of the painter’s murder and pieces together the dark circumstances of his death, Li Du must face the reason he will not go home and, ultimately, the reason why he must.

Download or read book The Chamber and the Cross written by Deborah K Reed and published by Kay Publishing. This book was released on 2014-11-09 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The CHAMBER AND THE CROSS is a contemporary thriller wrapped around a medieval romance. News of her mother's mysterious death brings Laura back to England, and to Bannock Manor, a crumbling, stately home in the Cotswolds. The house and all its problems now belong to her. While attempting to replace antiquated plumbing, Laura uncovers a skeleton beneath the courtyard. The local villagers wonder if that explains the ghost who haunts the manor, but a more menacing intruder, one very much alive, is also lurking about the halls. Todd Woodbridge, a university professor, is writing a book on the source of materials for medieval construction, and Bannock Manor is the perfect specimen. Unfortunately, time is running out, not only for the preservation of the house, but for the lives of its inhabitants. Centuries before, Brian Bannock fought his way into a position of minor nobility. It was a time when nobles were moving out of fortified castles and into more comfortable and prestigious manor houses. He built Bannock Manor as part of his legacy, but his deepest desires eluded him. In 1453, the Hundred Years' War between England and France was over, but in England the Wars of the Roses had just begun. Lorraine Bonville, a young French girl, was caught up in political alliances that threatened her life. Forced to flee her chateau and cross the English Channel, the only thing she had left was a dowry of regrets. Her fate was tied to Lord Bannock, a man twenty-five years her senior, and to the beautiful manor house he built for her. Jacques Dannes never belonged anywhere, or had anything, except the forbidden love of Lorraine. Theirs was a passion that lingered in the walls of the estate long after they were gone. From castles in their full glory to the ruins of war, this novel weaves a beautiful tapestry of history, architecture, the struggle to rebuild life and love, and the desire to protect a very special home.
