Everyone in Wilbeth Green has something to hide, but she's about to uncover their secrets.1956 In a quiet English village, the smoldering ruins of Rosemont Abbey have set the residents' tongues wagging, and everyone is quick to accuse troublemaker Paul Everly of the crime of arson. Paul has vanished without a trace, leaving only his plucky twin sister, Louisa, certain of his innocence. Fueling her conviction is an inexplicable connection--she felt her twin's death an hour before the abbey went up in flames.Armed with nothing but her wit and her keen sense of intuition, Louisa embarks on her own investigation, challenging the dubious townspeople and the disdain of her aunt and uncle. Even Inspector Malcolm Sinclair, once Paul's closest friend, warns Louisa to abandon her pursuit. But Louisa is determined to solve a murder no one else believes was committed, even if it means unraveling secrets that could shake Wilbeth Green to its core."A thrilling and beautifully written tale from start to finish, filled with a strong sense of time, deft characterization, and more than enough twists to keep one guessing. Readers will be as hard-pressed as I was to put this one down once they begin."--ANNA LEE HUBER, USA Today bestselling author"What an absolute delight of a novel! Naomi Stephens has a new fan in me!"--SARAH SUNDIN, Christy Award-winning author"An English murder mystery set in the 1950s, plus a friends (and sometimes enemies)-to-more romance? Naomi Stephens is an author to watch!"--JULIE KLASSEN, bestselling author

Determined to enjoy summer before her (possibly) imminent demise, Nora plans a ten day backpacking trip with Iris and Wes. Her plans hit a snag when Wes’s girlfriend tags along. Amanda is nice, so it’s not a huge issue—until she gets taken. Or rather, mistaken… for Nora. All because of a borrowed flannel. Now Raymond has a hostage. Nora has no leverage. Iris has a spear and Wes is building boobytraps. It will take all of their skills to make it out of the forest alive. There are three problems: Someone is lying. Someone is keeping secrets. And someone has to die.

Two years before Irma Rombauer published The Joy of Cooking in the United States, and two decades before The Silver Spoon was published in Italy, Ada Boni turned more than a decade of experience as a popular food columnist for a women’s magazine into this book, an exhaustive compendium of the recipes defining Italian cooking. It was the first such comprehensive Italian cookbook, and the mother of pretty much all other Italian cookbooks to come. Since its first publication in 1929, this book has gone through many Italian editions—the most recent in 1999—and remains an essential Italian culinary bible. It describes the pleasures of the Italian meal in luscious detail—from antipasti and condimenti to soups, pasta, polenta, and risotto, along with savory tarts (and the tart’s cousin, the calzone), egg dishes sweet and savory, salads, seafood, and meat. Along with being an record of the rich and varied regional culinary traditions of Italy, The Talisman of Happiness passionately states a core Italian belief about food: that we cook and eat not only to sustain the body but to nourish our souls. The book has been a perennial gift for newlyweds, for young people discovering their love of food, and those establishing their first homes. Its recipes are an essential part of the national culinary heritage and an invaluable source for professional chefs and food writers. You can find a copy of Il Talismano in many Italian home kitchens—often one passed from generation to generation—and in the kitchens of Lidia Bastianich, the late Marcella Hazan, and numerous other cooks who cite it for inspiration and reference.
Professor Charles Grimaud is found dead in his study just moments after his housekeeper watched him greet a mysterious visitor and welcome him into the room. Yet no sign of the murderer or murder weapon can be found. The housekeeper saw no one leave through the door and the snow outside the only window remains unblemished. An equally puzzling murder has occurred outside, in the middle of the street: The illusionist Pierre Fley was walking alone in a snow-covered cul-de-sac when witnesses heard someone shout "The second bullet is for you!" followed by a gunshot. He is found dead, with the revolver that killed both Grimaud and himself by his side and no footprints in the surrounding snow but his own. It appears that both murders must have been committed by a specter?someone not only invisible but lighter than air. But if anyone can find a rational explanation, it is brilliant amateur sleuth Dr. Gideon Fell. In a 1981 survey of mystery experts, The Three Coffins (called The Hollow Man in the UK) was voted the best locked room mystery of all time. It is also celebrated for a scene in which Carr's iconic detective Gideon Fell delivers a speech expounding upon the dozens of methods and variations by which apparently impossible murders may be accomplished. Any fan of locked room mysteries and impossible crimes should consider this book required reading.

"Just what is sugar? This question tormented nineteenth-century planters, scientists, and governments. Sugar was powerful: It colonized and enslaved people, held consumers in thrall, spurred new technologies, and was colossally profitable. David Singerman shows that sugar's grip over the world had as much to do with how knowledge about sugar was created and transmitted as it did with how it was grown and traded. Taking us to the laboratories where it was taxonomized, the docks where it was appraised, and the congressional sessions where tariffs on it were levied, Singerman threads together a novel, multifaceted history of this staple good"-- Provided by publisher.
