"On a black August night a silver Mercedes hurtles through the rain. The man inside is dressed expensively, and carries years of bloody secrets toward his new home and hunting ground.. He knows they wanted him to do it..that they enjoyed it. He keeps a scrapbook - pictures to remember them by: from pale, vulnerable Aura, his Blue Angel, to Marie, to little Celia, clutching her toy bear and not crying at all.. Why are they coming back to him in his new home in Florida? Why does the girl with the broken neck stand in his shadowed hallway, and how did the toy bear - once burned to ashes - come to lie on his floor? The past collides with the present. The blood-red tide is loosed. Once again Dr. Feinman is looking into the eyes of his Blue Angel. She is real, and she remembers all the horror of his crimes.." New, unread copy: I bought it new from a British dealer in 1991, never read it, stored it carefully over the years. Other than a TINY bit of dj rubbing it's perfect. It has NO markings throughout, NOT an ex-library, NOT a book club, NOT a remainder, dj NOT price-clipped ("L12.95"). Fine in Fine dj. New/New.

The Borgia Bride

HarperCollins Publishers Ltd 2006 Paperback, 384pp. "This sweeping historical novel tells the dramatic tale of that most intriguing of Renaissance women, Lucrezia Borgia.Incest. Poison. Betrayal. Three wedding presents for the Borgia bride.Italy 1492 Pope Alexander VI is elected. And so begins the Borgia reign of terror.Alexander murders, bribes and betrays to establish his dynasty. No one is immune. Rome is a hotbed of accusation and conspiracy. Every day, the River Tiber is full of new bodies.Sancha de Aragon, daughter of King Alfonso II of Naples, arrives in Rome newly wed to Alexander's youngest son, Jofre. Their marriage protects Naples against the ambitions of the French King Louis and gains Spanish support for the Borgias. But Rome is very different to her beloved Naples.The debauchery of the Borgia inner-circle is notorious: every lust is indulged and every indiscretion overlooked. Sancha is no innocent: she possesses an indomitable spirit which allows her to survive in the snake-pit, but her ancestors once rivalled the Borgias in cruelty and Sancha's greatest fear is that blood will out.Lucrezia Borgia's vicious jealously stings Sancha at first, but gradually the two young women develop a cautious friendship. Lucrezia, adored by her father but used ruthlessly as a political tool, seems deceptively innocent and sympathetic, and their bond strengthens when Lucrezia is married to Sancha's treasured brother, Alfonso. But when Sancha falls in love with Cesare Borgia, her husband's enigmatic older brother, she has no idea of how bizarre and internecine are the family's true ties. Alexander is rather more than an indulgent father; Lucrezia not the innocent she appears; and Cesare's ambition burns wildly. The only safe relationship with the Borgias is none at all: as Sancha, her brother and Naples are soon to discover. ", (ISBN: 9780007148837). Good.

The Burning Times: A Novel

Scribner/Simon and Schuster, 2001. Trade Paperback. Very Good. Nice bright copy with very minimal shelf wear, mild spine crease, text unmarked, binding tight. 2001 Trade Paperback. 394 pp. plus short reading group guide. "The year is 1357. The Inquisition rages throughout medieval France, searching ruthlessly for heretics. In an epic tale of passion, mystery, and unspeakable danger, one woman faces the flames..and triumphs. Mother Marie Françoise, born Sybille, is a midwife with a precocious gift for magic -- a gift that makes her a prime target for persecution at the hands of the Church. She flees her village and takes refuge in a Franciscan sisterhood. Before long, Sybille's unusual powers bring her under the scrutiny of the Inquisition. Michel, a pious and compassionate monk sent to hear her confession, finds himself drawn more intimately into Sybille's life and destiny than either of them could have imagined. Like a magician herself, Jeanne Kalogridis weaves a tale of star-crossed love, of faith and heresy, of mysticism and witchcraft, against a fascinating historical backdrop -- the Black Death, the Hundred Years' War, and the catastrophic defeat of France at the hands of the English. The result is a page-turning novel about one of the most intriguing periods in history.".

The Burning Times

HarperCollins Publishers Ltd 2002 Paperback, 400pp. "Of the Black Death, they said it was the end of the world; I knew better. The world can withstand the sickness of the body, but it remains to be seen whether it will survive the sickness that eats at the souls of our persecutors. So professes Mother Marie Fran‡oise, born Sybille, a poor midwife who is taught pagan ways and magic by her grandmother and is forced to take refuge among the Franciscan sisterhood as the Inquisition threatens. Her extraordinary life story unfolds when a monk is charged with determining whether the mysterious abbess is a saint or a witch. Sybille is possessed of exceptional powers, and she is in full command of them -- practicing white and black magic, winning the hearts of people with her wisdom, and terrorizing church authorities with her cunning. But even witches are not immune to earthly love, and Sybille embarks on a passionate, dangerous quest to be reunited with her beloved. As she confronts an exceptional destiny -- one that will require her to face the flames in order to save others like her -- she relates a tale of impossible triumph that forever changes the inquisitor who hears it. The Burning Times brilliantly weaves the mythology of the Knights Templar, witchcraft, and gnosticism against a backdrop of actual historical events: the Black Death, the Hundred Years' War, and the catastrophic defeat of France by England. Demonstrating the same meticulous research and page-turning plotting that made her Diaries of the Family Dracul series a success, Jeanne Kalogridis crafts a vivid portrait of this turbulent and fascinating period in world history and, at the same time, delivers a searing love story with a redeeming moral of its own: The greatest magic is that of compassion. ", (ISBN: 9780006514060). Very Good.
