Un crimen con clase

Autor: Julia Seales

Número de Páginas: 393

Uno de los debuts más esperados del año: un crimen a puerta cerrada con ecos de Agatha Christie y Jane Austen que ya está siendo adaptado al cine y cuyos derechos de traducción se han vendido a ocho idiomas UNO DE LOS 55 MEJORES LIBROS PARA REGALAR ESTAS NAVIDADES SEGÚN EL MUNDO «¿Será Un crimen con clase el gran superventas del verano? Debería. Recomendado hasta la viralidad por el boca a boca (tanto el tradicional como el millennial: en redes sociales también es un fenómeno), este thriller de tacitas combina con un ritmo irresistible lo mejor de dos universos literarios tan británicos como universales: el suspense de Agatha Christie se mezcla con la ingeniosa frivolidad de Jane Austen». Silvia López, El Periódico de España Beatrice Steele, del pequeño municipio de Swampshire, en la campiña inglesa, nunca ha encajado en la definición de una verdadera dama según el estricto código de conducta que allí rige: no sabe coser ni tiene talento para la música. Vive sin sobresaltos junto a su madre, cuya única obsesión es conseguir un buen partido para sus hijas; su padre, un bromista sin remedio, y sus dos hermanas menores. Sin embargo, Beatrice esconde un...

To Marry Her Marquess

Autor: Christi Caldwell

Número de Páginas: 181

Coming to the world of Heart of the Duke...the romance between: Lady Caroline Brookfield and Wynn Masterson, the Marquess of Exmoor (formerly the Earl of Astor) With ruin bearing down on his sisters, Wynn Masterson, Marquess of Exmoor, must find a respectable wife posthaste. Lovely and formidable brides-to-be accost him from one end of Mayfair to the other, but it’s the retiring Lady Caroline Brookfield who catches his eye. Lady Caroline has a scandalous past, and worse yet, she’s the sister of Wynn’s former fiancée—one of his former fiancées, that is. Caroline is all wrong for the marquessate and exactly right for the man, but how can Wynn choose between the woman he adores and the future his siblings are depending on him to secure?

Legacy of Secrets

Autor: Trevor Lloyd Jones

Número de Páginas: 220

I began this novel when I was 90, and some stress occurred that I might not live to finish it. The story is based on life in the beautiful Clwyd Valley of North Wales, during the economic depression of the thirties and World War II. Lady Victoria Mortimer, widow of the son of a Marcher Lord, is the chief character. These noblemen would find eligible daughters of Welsh aristocrats to marry their younger sons for the purpose of extending their land holdings. Victoria was the daughter of the Squire of The Plas in Llandyrnog , and life was idyllic until an exorbitant increase in property taxes occurred, following the Great War of 1914-18. Eventually, a model village, including a Dame's School, was built through Victoria's initiative, to enhance her assets, because of the decline in farm values. This proved to be attractive for the nouveau riche who wished to retire in the country.The exigencies of the day created a demand for those who wished to live in the country, while life for Victoria and her family lost none of its charms. Noblesse oblige Read on. T.L.J.

Fulfilling the Promise

Autor: John T. Kneebone , Eugene P. Trani

Número de Páginas: 294

Founded in Richmond in 1968, Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) began with a mission to build a university to serve a city emerging from the era of urban crisis—desegregation, white flight, political conflict, and economic decline. With the merger of the Medical College of Virginia and the Richmond Professional Institute into the single state-mandated institution of VCU, the two entities were able to embrace their mission and work together productively. In Fulfilling the Promise, John Kneebone and Eugene Trani tell the intriguing story of VCU and the context in which the university was forged and eventually thrived. Although VCU’s history is necessarily unique, Kneebone and Trani show how the issues shaping it are common to many urban institutions, from engaging with two-party politics in Virginia and African American political leadership in Richmond, to fraught neighborhood relations, the complexities of providing public health care at an academic health center, and an increasingly diverse student body. As a result, Fulfilling the Promise offers far more than a stale institutional saga. Rather, this definitive history of one urban-setting state university illuminates the...
