Beautiful Assassin by Michael C. White Pdf

A breathtaking tale of love, loyalty, and intrigue set in the early days of World War II from the acclaimed New York Times Notable Book author of Soul Catcher, which USA Today hailed as "a marvelous historical novel" World War II threatens to engulf the globe. The beleaguered Soviets, struggling to hold back the rising German tide, face despair and defeat daily. Yet just as all seems lost, a fearless female sniper named Tat'yana Levchenko gains fame in the Battle of Sevastopol with her remarkable composure and stunning skill. Offering hope in her nation's darkest moments, she becomes a Soviet hero, and word of her beauty and prowess eventually reaches Washington, D.C. Soon, First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt invites Tat'yana to visit America and tour the country with her. For the Soviets, Tat'yana's newfound friendship with the wife of the most powerful man in the world is an opportunity to garner public support for a much-needed second front in the war—but it's also a chance to gather information about President Roosevelt's plans. Surrounded by those who would exploit her position, Tat'yana becomes a pawn in a battle for information, and she is forced to question the motivations of everyone she knows, including the American captain who has been assigned as her translator. But as quickly as she rises to fame, Tat'yana vanishes. Did she defect? Was she silenced—and if so, by whom? Decades later, a clever journalist will discover Tat'yana's story . . . and reveal the truth. In Beautiful Assassin, Michael White delivers a heartrending story of war, betrayal, and a mother's love that can never be extinguished. Lyrical, evocative, and powerfully moving, this is a tale you will not soon forget.

Beautiful Assassin by Skyla Madi Pdf

Have you ever wanted to go back in time? To undo a bad decision? To save your future? What I wouldn't give to erase the night I met Cristiano Russo, the notorious mafia prince of Sydney Harbour. He is a toxic smog over my life, a controlling a-hole who keeps me on the tightest leash known to man. Because of him, my life is turned on its head. Because of him, I become hunted by association. Stefan Valentino watches me down the scope of his rifle, and it's terrifying not knowing when he'll pull the trigger... if he'll pull the trigger. I could die tonight. I could die next week. Just when I think his game ends at a distance, he comes in close, thrusting himself into my life. We are at war, he and I... ... and I don't know whose side I'm on.

Assassin's Quest by Robin Hobb Pdf

“An enthralling conclusion to this superb trilogy, displaying an exceptional combination of originality, magic, adventure, character, and drama.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review) King Shrewd is dead at the hands of his son Regal. As is Fitz—or so his enemies and friends believe. But with the help of his allies and his beast magic, he emerges from the grave, deeply scarred in body and soul. The kingdom also teeters toward ruin: Regal has plundered and abandoned the capital, while the rightful heir, Prince Verity, is lost to his mad quest—perhaps to death. Only Verity’s return—or the heir his princess carries—can save the Six Duchies. But Fitz will not wait. Driven by loss and bitter memories, he undertakes a quest: to kill Regal. The journey casts him into deep waters, as he discovers wild currents of magic within him—currents that will either drown him or make him something more than he was. Praise for Robin Hobb and Assassin’s Quest “Fantasy as it ought to be written . . . Robin Hobb’s books are diamonds in a sea of zircons.”—George R. R. Martin “Superbly written, wholly satisfying, unforgettable: better than any fantasy trilogy in print—including mine!”—Melanie Rawn

The Blind Assassin by Margaret Atwood Pdf

“Ten days after the war ended, my sister Laura drove a car off a bridge.” These words are spoken by Iris Chase Griffen, married at eighteen to a wealthy industrialist but now poor and eighty-two. Iris recalls her far from exemplary life, and the events leading up to her sister’s death, gradually revealing the carefully guarded Chase family secrets. Among these is “The Blind Assassin,” a novel that earned the dead Laura Chase not only notoriety but also a devoted cult following. Sexually explicit for its time, it was a pulp fantasy improvised by two unnamed lovers who meet secretly in rented rooms and seedy cafés. As this novel-within-a-novel twists and turns through love and jealousy, self-sacrifice and betrayal, so does the real narrative, as both move closer to war and catastrophe. Margaret Atwood’s Booker Prize-winning sensation combines elements of gothic drama, romantic suspense, and science fiction fantasy in a spellbinding tale.

Beautiful Assassin by Emma Wildes Pdf

Jonas Maxim, Viscount Wilding, suspects that someone is out there impersonating him. This revelation comes in the form of a very lovely young lady who invades his bedroom one night, apparently determined to murder him in his sleep. Usually he prefers to do more pleasurable things with a beautiful female guest than defend his life, but when he learns that Marianne Glass believes he impregnated her sister and abandoned her, he is both surprised and suddenly intrigued by this passionate, beautiful assassin. Though she knew she could never actually kill him in cold blood, Marianne is still chagrined to be thwarted by the sinfully handsome Lord Wilding before she could force the truth from the blackguard. Overpowered and at his mercy, she is astonished when he offers to help her find the true culprit. Is he innocent, or is this just another ploy? If he is lying, she may well finish the job and do him in after all…
