Imprint: Kensington Pub Corp, 2006 So much for the glamorous life this holiday season. Last year, Olivia Todd was on stage in New York with the other fabulous Rockettes; this year, her whole holiday has just been put on ice--literally. A broken ankle sends her home to Baltimore, where the only gig available is playing Mrs. Claus at Rossman's department store. Such fun! It gets better. The ex-boyfriend (affectionately known as King Rat) has managed to trash Olivia's reputation all over town by making her the subject of a `fictional' cable TV show about a bad- news girlfriend named--yep, Olivia. And it's called The Nutcracker. So now her only Christmas wish is a second chance, and with a little help from her seventh-grade sweetheart--plus some of that wonderful Christmas magic--who knows? `Tis the season, after all. Book.

Imprint: Boston, MA, Somerset Hall Press, 2013 Although the Astoria section of New York has been considered the largest Hellenic settlement outside of Greece or Cyprus, it is striking that it has received relatively little attention by writers, artists, and social scientists. The present bilingual book of poems and images, both as a physical object and as a discursive project, is about a culturally neglected enclave in the midst of ethnic and social transformations. Even in the era of globalization, every social and artistic action occurs somewhere locally, and accordingly the poems and images presented here emphasize the role of exile, of people, and of place..

Imprint: New York, Kensington, 2013 Brandy Borne and her suspiciously well-informed mother, Vivian, have the winning bid on an abandoned storage unit's "mystery" contents, which they discover includes a vintage cornet. But when they arrive to claim the rest of their loot, the space is empty -- except for the recently stowed body of Big Jim Bob, Vivian's tipster -- a.k.a. former flame. Only one thing is certain: someone has definitely put the "rage" in storage! Murder turns to mayhem when an intruder steals into the Borne home, tries to mete out some ruff justice to Brandy's ferociously fluffy shih tzu, Sushi, and makes off with the cornet. But why is the horn worth killing for? Clues soon lead the sleuthing Borne duo to the next stashed victim -- and some of Serenity's juiciest secrets. Now Brandy and Mother will have to play a perilous game of cat-and-mouse droppings to catch the corpse-hoarding killer before it's time to blow "Taps" for all concerned.... Book.

Imprint: London, Mayflower., 1972 People thought Miss Jonas a very odd lady indeed, still unmarried at fifty, with an outspoken way of talking and a habit of wearing exotic costumes she had picked up in her youthful travels. But Miss Jonas was also very rich, so her relatives tended to tolerate her eccentricities. Until, that is, she astonished everyone by deciding to take in an orphaned refugee from the French Revolution. Then her drunken spendthrift brother Thomas saw the fat inheritance he had been expecting going to some adopted 'French brat', and he began to lay some rather unpleasant plans. Particularly when the 'child' turned out to be Serge, Vicomte de Valmont, a handsome, arrogant, six-foot tall young aristocrat..... Book. Book Condition: Very Good. Binding: Pbk Stock number: 36377.

Imprint: New York, Dell, 1977 Little did Octavia dream that the lurid novel she penned in secret would become the most sensational scandal of the London season. She was even less prepared to have her identity as the author revealed, and to be branded as a shocking adventuress. And when the man she loved accused her of using him as the model for her novel's villain, Octavia thought life could hold nothing worse than his cruel accusations. But that was before she realized that the sophisticated drawing-rooms she had so accurately captured in fiction concealed a smooth-tongued traitor. For England was at war with France, and Octavia had unwittingly revealed more than the foibles of the aristocracy--she had exposed the treachery of a spy..... Book. Book Condition: Very Good.

Imprint: Ann Arbor, University of Michigan Press, 2013 Classical Spies is the first insiders account of the operations of the American intelligence service in World War II Greece. Initiated by archaeologists in Greece and the eastern Mediterranean, the network drew on scholars personal contacts and knowledge of languages and terrain. While modern readers might think Indiana Jones is just a fantasy character, Classical Spies discloses events where even Indy would feel at home: burying Athenian dig records in an Egyptian tomb, activating prep-school connections to establish spies code-named Vulture and Chickadee, and organizing parachute drops.Susan Heuck Allen reveals remarkable details about a remarkable group of individuals. Often mistaken for mild-mannered professors and scholars, such archaeologists as University of Pennsylvanias Rodney Young, Cincinnatis Jack Caskey and Carl Blegen, Yales Jerry Sperling and Dorothy Cox, and Bryn Mawrs Virginia Grace proved their mettle as effective spies in an intriguing game of cat and mouse with their Nazi counterparts. Relying on interviews with individuals sharing their stories for the first time, previously unpublished secret documents, private diaries and letters, and personal photographs, Classical Spies offers an exciting and personal perspective on the history of World War II. 420p.bibliography.index..

Imprint: Berkeley CA, University of California Press, 1998 The relentlessly self-promoting amateur archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann took full credit for discovering Homer's Troy over one hundred years ago, and since then generations have thrilled to the tale of his ambitions and achievements. But Schliemann gained this status as an archaeological hero partly by deliberately eclipsing the man who had launched his career. Now, at long last, Susan Heuck Allen puts the record straight in this fascinating archaeological adventure that restores the British expatriate Frank Calvert to his rightful place in the story of the identification and excavation of Hisarlk, the site now thought to be Troy as described in the Iliad. Frank Calvert had lived in the Troad--in the northwest corner of Asia Minor--excavating there for fifteen years before Schliemann arrived and learning the local topography well.. Book.

These objects document the vitality and significance of Czech Jewry, which has flourished for a for a millennium at the crossroads of East and West and is the oldest continuous Jewish community in Europe. One hundred fifty-three local Jewish communities in Bohemia and Moravia were devastated during the Holocaust, and thus the Prague Museum bears eloquent testimony to a world virtually snuffed out just one generation ago.

Convalescence comes in the form of a comfortable monthly allowance and an opulent apartment in a mysterious neighborhood of Istanbul; inexplicably left to him by an acquaintance in the Air Force. But there s a price to pay. His Edgar Allen Poe-obsessed benefactor sets him on a wild goose chase from the back streets of Istanbul to the broad avenues of Buenos Aires, and finally to Poe s grave in Baltimore. But what exactly is Kemal searching for? Missing persons, yes, but there s more he is looking for the embodiment of Poe s most famous poem; Annabel Lee, to love and be loved. 270p..
