The House on Blackwater BayouThe house sat on the edge of Blackwater Bayou like a woman who had inherited a fortune she did not want and could not refuse. It was large -- not mansion-large, but plantation-large, the kind of size that implied generations of people living under the same roof, eating at the same table, sharing the same secrets. The cypress trees surrounded it the way guards surround a king who has stopped...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 40 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The Pattern in the MindDr. Adrian Cross stood at the front of the lecture hall and watched the audience file in, and he did what he always did at the beginning of a semester: he counted them. Not because he cared about enrollment numbers—he did, but not in the way that administrators cared, in the way that gardeners care about the number of seeds they have before they know which ones will sprout and which ones will...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 44 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The Observatory of Lost StarsLondon, October 1883 The fog had settled over Greenwich like a shroud, thick and yellow with coal smoke, and I sat alone in the observatory with nothing but the great refractor and the weight of a secret that would drown me long before the stars ever did. My name is Arthur Windsor, and I am the last astronomer who knows what lies beyond the silence. It began on the twelfth of September, when...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 49 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The Long DownpourI. The rain had been falling for three days when the dam broke. Not a storm dam—a river dam. The Michigan River Levee, the one that kept the south side of Chicago from drowning every spring. It broke at two in the morning on a Thursday, and by morning, the south side was underwater. My name is Jack Morane. I am thirty-four years old. I am a private detective in Chicago. I wear an old trench...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 53 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The Waltz of the Dying LightVienna in 1892 was a city of gilded mirrors and rotting foundations. The Austro-Hungarian Empire was a magnificent corpse, dressed in silk and lace, dancing a slow waltz toward an inevitable end. In the heart of this decaying splendor lived Julian Vane, a disgraced diplomat whose only remaining asset was a collection of forbidden letters and a profound sense of irony. Julian spent his days in...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 65 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The Velvet Shadow(Paranormal Romance Variation) Clara lived in a house that breathed. It was an old Victorian estate on the edge of a cliff in Cornwall, where the wind howled like a wounded animal and the sea crashed against the rocks with a rhythmic, violent hunger. Clara was a restoration artist, spending her days breathing life back into faded canvases, but her nights were spent in the company of a ghost....0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 33 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The Magnolia and the FloodTell it again. Tell it the way it was, or the way it might have been, which in this country is the same thing, because the past here does not recede—it lies down in the mud and waits. Magnolia Duval was born in 1903, in the big house at Duval Landing, which sat on a bluff above the river and had been in the family since before the Louisiana Purchase, which was to say since before the land had...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 45 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

THE BEAUTY OF DEATHThe rain had been falling on London for eleven days when the order arrived. Captain Shane Holt sat in the train compartment watching fog swallow the suburbs, his fingers resting on the ring in his pocket. Elena's ring. Five years since she disappeared near Whitechapel. Five years since he had held her hand in a hospital in Dover and watched her breathe stop with the quiet dignity of a woman who...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 59 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση

The Man Who WatchedI am Nick Delaney and I write about things nobody reads for a website called The Brooklyn Beat that gets four hundred visitors a month and pays me in exposure. I am thirty-four years old and I have been thirty-four for six years, which is the New York version of being stuck. The story about Marcus Rivera was supposed to be my breakthrough. A rising star from the Bronx, the article was going to...0 Σχόλια 0 Μοιράστηκε 64 Views 0 Προεπισκόπηση
