An Academy for Liars

A student will find that the hardest lessons sometimes come from outside the classroom in this stunning dark academia novel from the acclaimed author of The Year of the Witching and House of Hunger. Lennon Carter’s life is falling apart. Then she gets a mysterious phone call inviting her to take the entrance exam for Drayton College, a school of magic hidden in a secret pocket of Savannah. Lennon has been chosen because—like everyone else at the school—she has the innate gift of persuasion, the ability to wield her will like a weapon, using it to control others and, in rare cases, matter itself. After passing the test, Lennon begins to learn how to master her devastating and unsettling power. But despite persuasion’s heavy toll on her body and mind, she is wholly captivated by her studies, by Drayton’s lush, moss-draped campus, and by her brilliant classmates. But even more captivating is her charismatic adviser, Dante, who both intimidates and enthralls her. As Lennon continues in her studies, her control grows, and she starts to uncover more about the secret world she has entered into, including the disquieting history of Drayton College. She is increasingly disturbed by what she learns, for it seems that the ultimate test is to embrace absolute power without succumbing to corruption...and it’s a test she’s terrified she’s going to fail.

Mandíbula

Una adolescente fanática del horror y de las creepypastas (historias de terror que circulan por internet) despierta maniatada en una cabaña en medio del bosque.

The Man Who Was Thursday

Gilbert Keith Chesterton; Jake Kerr; Matt Mikalatos; Harry Plantinga; David Widger; Vincent Verret; Victor

This antiquarian book contains G.K. Chesterton's 1908 masterpiece, 'The Man Who Was Thursday'. Gabriel Syme is a detective and poet. Lucian Gregory is a poet and a hard-core anarchist. After infiltrating a clandestine anarchists meeting, Syme assumes the role of one of the select group of members that makes up the 'Central Anarchist Council', and soon discovers that he is not the only person-in-disguise. A metaphysical thriller and engrossing detective story, this is a text that will appeal to those with an interest in poetry and politics, and is one not to be missed by fans of Chesterton's riveting fiction. Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874 – 1936) was an English writer, theologian, philosopher, dramatist, journalist, poet, and critic. This vintage classic is being republished now in an affordable, modern edition complete with a new prefatory biography of the author.

When the woman is killed, Poirot uses his detective skills to solve the mystery. Agatha Christie is the best-selling author of all time.

Преступление и наказание

Фёдор Михайлович Достоевский

«Преступление и наказание» - произведение классика русской литературы и одного из лучших романистов мирового уровня Ф. М. Достоевского (1821 – 1881). *** Герой книги Родион Раскольников решил проверить свою теорию о существовании людей, которым разрешено совершать убийства, и тех, кто этого делать не может. Роман называют энциклопедией жизни России 60-х годов XIX века. Произведение является обязательной частью школьной программы. Достоевский написал много замечательных произведений: «Идиот», «Братья Карамазовы», «Бесы», «Бедные люди», «Униженные и оскорбленные», «Игрок», «Белые ночи», «Кроткая», «Мальчик у Христа на елке», «Неточка Незванова». Значение творчества Достоевского для мировой литературы и философии сложно переоценить. Его без преувеличения можно назвать самым известным и читаемым российским писателем, который получил известность не только благодаря художественным достоинствам своей прозы, но и благодаря их философскому, нравственному наполнению.

Murder on the Links

In Agatha Christie's riveting novel, "The Murder on the Links," readers are thrust into a world of intrigue and suspense as amateur sleuth Hercule Poirot investigates a baffling murder that unfolds against the backdrop of a French golf course. Christie's masterful narrative style combines vivid descriptions and meticulous detail, crafting a complex puzzle of motives and suspects that captivates from the first page. The novel deftly weaves themes of class conflict and betrayal into the genre-defining conventions of a classic whodunit, reflecting the literary context of the early 20th century where crime fiction emerged as a societal mirror. Agatha Christie, the queen of mystery, was influenced by her own experiences traveling in Europe, particularly in France, which informed the atmospheric setting of this novel. Her astute observations of human behavior and penchant for psychological depth allow her characters to leap off the page, leaving readers enraptured. Drawing upon her background in pharmacy and a lifelong love of literature, Christie imbued her writing with both precision and artistry, establishing her as one of the foremost authors of her time. "The Murder on the Links" is a must-read for both long-time fans and newcomers to Christie's oeuvre, offering an intricate plot and unforgettable characters that showcase her extraordinary talent. Engaging and thought-provoking, this novel is an exemplary piece of crime fiction that will leave readers guessing until the very last chapter.

The Amateur Cracksman

First published in 1899, The Amateur Cracksman was the first collection of stories detailing the exploits and intrigues of gentleman thief A. J. Raffles in late Victorian England. Raffles was E. W. Hornung's most famous character. Popular in its day, the book led to three later works: The Black Mask and A Thief in the Night, both collections of short stories, and Mr. Justice Raffles, a complete novel. In public a popular sportsman, in private a cunning burglar with a weakness for valuable jewelery, Arthur Raffles, with the help of his side-kick Bunny Manders, always manages to thwart the investigations of Scotland Yard's Inspector Mackenzie.

Murder on the Orient Express

Agatha Christie; Andrew Sachs; Ken Ludwig; Not Known; Graham Johnson; Bethany Bolton; Jesse Felton; Chalut; Hal Boffin

El Orient Express parte una vez más hacia los exóticos paisajes que jalonan su ruta de Estambul a Calais. Sin embargo, en esta ocasión el viaje no transcurrirá con la placidez de costumbre: el tren quedará bloqueado por la nieve y aparecerá el cadáver de un pasajero asesinado. ¿Quién puede ser el asesino de entre todos los viajeros? ¿La princesa rusa?, ¿uno de los nobles húngaros?, ¿el vendedor de la Ford?, ¿el ama de casa norteamericana? ¿O quizás alguien del servicio? Por suerte, Poirot también se halla allí y, gracias a sus células grises, logrará armar un laborioso rompecabezas que arroje luz a este complicado caso.

The After House

In "The After House," Mary Roberts Rinehart crafts a masterful blend of mystery and psychological intrigue set in a dilapidated mansion filled with haunting secrets. The narrative unfolds with Rinehart'Äôs characteristic flair for suspense, employing stream-of-consciousness techniques that immerse the reader in the protagonist'Äôs unravelling mind as she navigates eerie occurrences and unexplainable phenomena. Richly atmospheric, the novel reflects the early 20th-century literary trend of exploring the boundaries between reality and the supernatural, drawing parallels with contemporaries like Henry James and Edith Wharton. Rinehart, often referred to as the 'American Agatha Christie,' was a prolific author whose experiences as a journalist and her keen observational skills heavily influenced her writing. Her familiarity with the social dynamics of her era, coupled with personal encounters with mysterious events, inspired her to probe the darker aspects of human nature and domestic life in "The After House," adding depth to her exploration of fear and uncertainty. This compelling narrative is highly recommended for readers who appreciate gothic mysteries and psychological thrillers. Rinehart's intricate plotting and vivid characterization ensure that "The After House" not only entertains but also lingers in the mind long after the final page is turned, making it a must-read for those who seek both suspense and psychological depth.

The Angel of Terror

‘Angel of Terror’ is a tale of the femme fatale, a vast family fortune and the lengths people will go for money. Behind the mask of this sweet faced, beautiful woman is a cold, unflinching ‘Angel of Terror’ who will manipulate and bend those around her to her will with her forked tongue. It is an incredibly fast-paced book, with a riveting plot and phenomenal dialogue, intersected with bouts of humour and satire. It is a perfect read for anyone who loved ABC’s award winning show ‘Revenge’. Edgar Wallace (1875-1932) was an English writer, poet and journalist. He was such a prolific writer that his publisher claimed his work could account for a quarter of all books sold in England. He wrote countless books, screenplays, poems and historical non-fiction, spawning over one hundred and sixty films based on his work. He unfortunately passed away suddenly before he could see his most famous creation ‘King Kong’ come to life. It has been adapted several times over the years, notably by Peter Jackson of Lord of the Rings fame, and more recently in ‘Godzilla vs Kong’ starring Millie Bobby Brown.

The Lodger

Out of the London fog, a mysterious stranger arrives on the Buntings’ doorstep seeking lodgings and a kindly ear – but a horrifying secret lurks behind his gentlemanly façade. Can Mrs Bunting uncover the true nature of his strange obsessions and avert looming disaster for her family? Marie Belloc Lowndes’s psychological thriller The Lodger (1913) was the first novelization of the infamous and still-unsolved “Jack the Ripper” murders of 1888. The novel transformed a sordid story of the London streets into a taut domestic tale of conflicted motivations, uncertain loyalty, and slow-burning terror. Lowndes, a contemporary – and rival – of Agatha Christie, adopted and subverted the detective fiction genre in order to explore women’s roles within the family and within larger society in ways that still resonate strongly today. This scholarly edition revives a pivotal text by an undervalued late-Victorian and early twentieth-century author, and adds to our understanding of that transformational literary period. This edition brings together, for the first time, Lowndes’ 1913 novel and the 1911 short story upon which it was based, providing new transcriptions of the texts alongside facsimiles of Henry Raleigh’s original illustrations. A critical introduction offers historical, thematic, and biographical context drawn from new archival research, as well as an exhaustive bibliography of Lowndes’s published work.

The house by the church-yard

The foremost teller of scary stories in his day and a profound influence on both the novelists and filmmakers of the 20th century, Anglo-Irish author JOSEPH THOMAS SHERIDAN LE FANU (18141873) has, sadly, fallen out of scholarly and popular favor, and unfairly so. To this day, contemporary readers who happen across his works praise his talent for weaving a tense literary atmosphere tinged by the supernatural and bolstered by hints of ambiguous magic. Though his best-known works were horror tales, Le Fanus first novels were historical in nature. The House by the Churchyard, originally published in 1863, bridges the authors early work and his later experiments in Gothic horror, and is said to have inspired James Joyces Finnegans Wake. A rambling tale of the charming Irish town of Chapelizod in 1767, it sees men of the Royal Irish Artillery stationed in the village and disrupting the quiet life there... though the brooding Mr. Mervyn and his coffin and the mysterious newcomer Mr. Dangerfield lend elements of the unknown as well. With a series of new editions of Le Fanus works, Cosimo is proud to reintroduce modern book lovers to the writings of the early master of suspense fiction who pioneered the concept of psychological horror.

The Big Four

Framed in the doorway of Poirot’s bedroom stood an uninvited guest, coated from head to foot in dust. The man’s gaunt face stared for a moment, then he swayed and fell. Who was he? Was he suffering from shock or just exhaustion? Above all, what was the significance of the figure 4, scribbled over and over again on a sheet of paper? We follow Hercule Poirot as he finds himself plunged into a world of international intrigue, risking his life to uncover the truth about ‘Number Four’.

They try to dismiss them as a cruel hoax, but then one of the recipients is found dead. The letter next to her body reads simply, 'I can't go on'. As fear spreads among the villagers, Jane Marple must uncover who is writing these letters - before anyone else is hurt.

Crooked House

Shakespeare Survey is a yearbook of Shakespeare studies and production. Since 1948 Survey has published the best international scholarship in English and many of its essays have become classics of Shakespeare criticism. Each volume is devoted to a theme, or play, or group of plays; each also contains a section of reviews of the previous year's textual and critical studies and of major British performances. The books are illustrated with a variety of Shakespearean images and production photographs. The current editor of Survey is Peter Holland. The first eighteen volumes were edited by Allardyce Nicoll, numbers 19-33 by Kenneth Muir and numbers 34-52 by Stanley Wells. The virtues of accessible scholarship and a keen interest in performance, from Shakespeare's time to our own, have characterized the journal from the start. For the first time, numbers 1-50 are being reissued in paperback, available separately and as a set.

The Paradise Mystery

Excerpt from The Paradise Mystery While the boy learnt the last lines of his Latin, and the doctor turned over the newspaper, the girl read a letter - evidently, from the large sprawling hand writing, the missive of some girlish correspondent. She was deep in it when, from one of the turrets of the Cathedral, a bell began to ring. At that, she glanced at her brother.

Now with a beautiful new series look. On holiday on the Cornish Riviera, Hercule Poirot is alarmed to hear pretty Nick Buckley describe her recent "accidental brushes with death." First, on a treacherous Cornish hillside, the brakes on her car failed. Then, on a coastal path, a falling boulder missed her by inches. Later, an oil painting fell and almost crushed her in bed. So when Poirot finds a bullet hole in Nick's sun hat, he decides that this girl needs his help. Can he find the would-be killer before he hits his target?
