![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Luckily, hot cop Nick has just been tasked with starting up a citizen's police academy, and combined pressure from Finlay's looming book deadline and Feliks is enough to convince Finlay and Vero to get involved. The problem is, the killer might be an officer themself. ![]() Mob boss Feliks is still running the show from behind bars, and he has a task for Finlay: find and identify a contract killer before the cops do. When Finlay and her nanny/partner-in-crime Vero accidentally destroyed a luxury car that they had "borrowed" in the process of saving the life of Finlay's ex-husband, the Russian mob did her a favor and bought the car for her. Author and single mom Finlay Donovan has been in messes before―after all, she's a pro at removing bloodstains for various unexpected reasons―but none quite like this. ![]()

![]() ![]() He’s everything that Magnus has spent a lifetime avoiding. He’s messy and creative and nosy and mysterious. Laurie Gentry is nearly the same age as Magnus, but that’s where the similarity ends. However, when one of these sunny young men shows an inclination for dramatic scenes, Magnus meets his new neighbour. ![]() Why date someone his own age to discuss back pain, retirement-planning, and corns, when he can date men who don’t care to discuss anything at all? He fills his nights with a parade of handsome young men who want to make him happy. A successful trial lawyer, he spends his days lecturing jurors, exasperating judges, and striding arrogantly around courtrooms. He’s divided his life into happy compartments. Men, sofas, books-everything gets jettisoned, eventually. At fifty-two, he doesn’t believe in keeping anything. Magnus Carlsen is determined to grow old disgracefully. ![]() Sometimes love comes when you least expect or want it. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Moreover, the usage of the word “Souls” is equally effective, since it suggests the unviewed spirit that represents the humane aspects of the black culture and heritage. Du Bois does not generalise, but instead specifically raises some points concerning the “Negro Problem” (719). In particular, the definite article “The” is not accidental and may insinuate the author’s insistence on specificity. Right from the start, the technique of colloquial English language divulges his intention to open up his argumentation in both the white and black audience. Through the title, The Souls of Black Folk, Du Bois devises an effective umbrella under which his arguments can easily be unfolded. A mixture of techniques is consequently employed, aiming to conceptualise the unconscious and familiarise the readers with what they find unfamiliar. This is the exact point African-Americans were subjected to, along with historical, cultural and political revelations. In these terms, Du Bois cautiously steps within the “Veil” of his racial segregation, a capitalized term he coins to help readers visualize the obscure barrier that separates the two worlds, and attempts to decipher the subliminal fluctuations of a blackness vastly treated as a flaw. Du Bois’s work The Souls of Black Folk (1903) attempts to capture the quintessential twentieth century problem “of the color-line” (713), that is the problem of racial belonging and identification. ![]() ![]() ![]() Contact seller Seller Rating: Book Used - SoftcoverCondition: Good US 6.16 Convert currency Free shipping Within U.S.A.

At the center of this story is the house at Kill Creek, an old abandoned three-story that was built in the mid-1800s on a lonely road in the middle of the Kansas prairie. This novel is a good example of such horror, the kind that sends chills down your spine, making you wonder if anything is even safe anymore as you steal nervous glances over your shoulder to make sure you really are alone. ![]() ![]() In Kill Creek, a character even ventures to explain why such stories fill us with dread, positing it’s because we never expect such awfulness to lurk so close beneath the surface of what is considered normal. ![]() The idea of what was once a safe haven being invaded by malevolent spirits creates such a sense of wrongness that the terror is elevated to a whole other level. Some of my favorite horror stories involve haunted houses, because after all, a home is supposed to be a place of warmth and shelter. This does not affect the contents of my review and all opinions are my own.
