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.

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

Octavia

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.

Finding the Walls of Troy : Frank Calvert and Heinrich Schliemann at Hisarlik

Imprint: Berkeley CA, University of California Press, 1998
Edition: First Thus
Binding: Softback

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.
