Описание:
If Jane Austen had written Miss Marple, she would have been Dido Kent, the inquisitive spinster.--Kirkus (starred review)
A Woman of Consequence, the third installment in Anna Dean's charming mystery series, opens with a visit to the ruins of an Abbey where Penelope Lambe, suffers a bad fall from the ancient stone steps. Before she slips into unconsciousness, Penelope manages to say, 'I saw her--It was her.' Soon people are certain that she saw the Grey Nun, a ghost reputed to walk the abbey's ruins. Miss Dido Kent, however, does not approve of ghosts. Disregarding everyone else's assumptions, and endeavoring to take her mind off the troubles of her family, Dido turns her energy toward solving the mystery. But events start to seem more sinister when a human skeleton is found at the abbey. Is Miss Lambe's accident connected to this discovery? Everyone is relying on Dido to find out. A captivating continuation of the Dido Kent series: rich in suspense, historical detail, and most of all, characters.

Описание: Genevi ve finished her swim and headed back to her blanket. Completely relaxed now, she began her routine of applying a protective layer of tanning oil to her already honey colored skin. She knew he was watching her again. He, being her older brother Pierre's very handsome childhood friend and her neighbor, Bryce Marten, had been watching her since the moment she stepped out onto their little private beach. She had had her suspicions as to why he seemed to always be at home when she was but she had no proof that anything was out of the ordinary. Pierre could have contrived a full protective detail and she would have big burly men all over her home and her privacy and peace would cease to exist altogether. That, she thought, would have been intolerable. Lost in the revelry of her thoughts, she did not hear the footsteps approaching in the warm sand. A shadow fell over her and she stiffened. She thought she knew who it was because there was only one other person near her, right? Then, a second shadow fell over her and Genevi ve knew something was terribly wrong.

Описание: In Choice and Consequence, Thomas Schelling ventures where rationality is ambiguous, exploring topics as awesome as nuclear terrorism, as sordid as blackmail, as ineffable as daydreaming, as intimidating as euthanasia. He examines ethical issues wrapped up in economics, and discloses ethical issues that are misplaced or misidentified.

Описание:
"Go back to Gringolandia, muchacho, or next time we steal the family jewels." Ordered by the powers who control him to undertake this perilous mission, what is Virgil to do?
Virgil Quinn finds himself at loose ends. His battles with the Cardinal of New York are behind him. Mary Ellen, his beloved mate of many years, has passed on to her just reward. A visit to Omaha, his home town, tells him that a man can't go home again.
Where then? What to do with his life? Reform of course. It's all he knows, and he converts an old Dodge van into a mini-RV and takes to the road to rectify the evils he is sure to find along the way.
First to Griswald, a desolate oil town held in permanent bondage by absentee billionaires. On to Luchaloca where he is caught up in a murderous dynastic struggle dating back to the days of Billy the Kid, a struggle that proves to be not what it appears. A visit by the deceased nun Sister Philomena, his lifelong mentor, sends him south on a mission far more dangerous than any he has faced in the past. Telling himself that his battles with the powerful Cardinal of New York have prepared him for the worst to come, he crosses the border into Mexico on a mission that history tells him could put him before a firing squad.
Crooks and hypocrites, killers and parasites, oligarchs and churchmen, Virgil must do battle with them all-and survive to write about it.
