Wat skuil agter die Sheldon-fortuin?
Zabeth Meyer beland op Kronkelrivier om navorsing vir die krimiskrywer
Wilbur Sheldon te doen. In sy skatryk familie se Victoriaanse herehuis,
Sheldon Manor, kom sy al hul vreemde tragedies en intriges teë: Eers
verdrink die oudste Sheldonkleinkind, en ’n paar jaar later sterf sewe
Sheldons op een dag.
Net een erfgenaam van die Sheldon-fortuin bly oor: Die onbekwame Keith.
En Ethel, die familiematriarg, is al in haar tagtigs.
Kort ná Zabeth se aankoms gebeur daar nog ’n ongeluk by Sheldon Manor
en skielik lyk gebeure van vyf en twintig jaar gelede heel anders ...
Tussen Zabeth, Wilbur en die aantreklike Liam Sheldon moet hulle die
dinastie se donker geheime en hul elkeen se eie verlede ontrafel
voordat nog iemand seerkry.
In a world ruled by necromancers, a woman with missing memories
threatens the dark order that keeps her captive - and the man sent to
break her. Gothic in tone, epic in scope - this debut is destined to
become a modern classic.
Once a promising alchemist, Helena Marino is now a prisoner – of war
and of her own fractured mind. The Resistance is crushed, her allies
dead, her abilities suppressed.
The world she knew is gone.
Paladia’s corrupt guild families and their necromancer overlords, aided
by vile undead creatures now rule - and hold Helena captive.
Resistance records claim she was a healer of little importance. Yet,
Helena’s inexplicable memory loss makes her enemies wonder: Is she
truly insignificant, or do her missing memories conceal the
Resistance’s final secret?
To uncover the truth, Helena is delivered into the hands of the High
Reeve – Paladia’s most feared and merciless necromancer.
Trapped on his crumbling estate, she must fight to protect what remains
of herself and unearth the secrets buried in her mind, her prison, and
her captor . . . whatever the cost.
A special edition hardback of the
final book in the million-copy bestselling Shepherd King duology, which
began with One Dark Window. In this lushly gothic, mist-cloaked
romantasy, Elspeth must face the consequences of what she's wrought.
Elspeth and Ravyn have gathered most of the twelve Providence
Cards, but the last, and most important one remains to be found: The
Twin Alders.
If they are going to find it before the Solstice and cure the kingdom
of the dark magic infecting it, they will need to journey beyond the
dangerous mist-cloaked forest that surrounds their kingdom.
And the only one who can lead them there is the monster that shares
Elspeth's head. The Nightmare. And he's not eager to share any longer.
Discover the dark gothic fantasy taking the world by storm, from one of
the most exciting voices in romantasy: the million-copy bestselling
Rachel Gillig.

She needs a lawyer. He needs a payday.
Simon Latch is a small-town lawyer struggling with debt, gambling
issues and an impending divorce. But when Eleanor Barnett, an
85-year-old widow, visits his office to secure a new will, it seems his
luck has finally changed: she claims she's sitting on a $20 million
fortune and no one else knows about it.
She could be the ticket to his fortune.
Once he's hooked the richest client of his career, Simon works quietly
to keep her wealth under the radar, even from his own assistant. But
there are complications: other lawyers are circling his client like
vultures.
But when she is hospitalised after a car accident, Eleanor's story
begins to crack. Simon realises that nothing is as it seems. And as
events spiral out of control, he finds himself on trial for a crime he
swears he didn't commit: murder.
