Her Dark Inheritance by Meg Hafdahl Pdf

On the day her mother died, Daphne Forrest learns the devastating truth. She'd never really known the woman who raised her, not even her real name. Fueled to unravel the tragic mystery behind her mother's secrets, Daphne abandons all she knows, traveling to the bucolic yet sinister town of Willoughby, Minnesota. Navigating through the memories of her own bloody legacy, Daphne throws herself into the insular and haunting small town of her ancestors. She investigates the murder that led to her mother's shame aided by charming, yet tortured, local, Edwin Monroe. Edwin has a unique understanding of the darkness in Willoughby, and how the town holds a lurking threat more foreboding than any unsolved murder. As Daphne gets closer to the truth, Willoughby itself rebels against her. She bears witness to terrifying scenes from the past. Is her mother a murderer? Is that Daphne's dark inheritance? And is she strong enough to battle an evil more frightening than her own past?

Dark Inheritance by Brooke N. Newman Pdf

A major reassessment of the development of race and subjecthood in the British Atlantic Focusing on Jamaica, Britain’s most valuable colony in the Americas by the mid-eighteenth century, Brooke Newman explores the relationship between racial classifications and the inherited rights and privileges associated with British subject status. Weaving together a diverse range of sources, she shows how colonial racial ideologies rooted in fictions of blood ancestry at once justified permanent, hereditary slavery for Africans and barred members of certain marginalized groups from laying claim to British liberties on the basis of hereditary status.

Dark Inheritance by W Michael Gear,Kathleen O'Neal Gear Pdf

W. Michael Gear and Kathleen O'Neal Gear, international bestselling authors of Dissolution, present a gripping, thought-provoking contemporary thriller in the tradition of Michael Chrichton's Jurassic Park. Here a project of cutting-edge genetics might lead to a better world-or a waking nightmare. For thirteen years-since he became one of several scientists chosen to raise apes bred by the pharmaceutical giant SAC-Dr. Jim Dutton, his young daughter Brett, and the bonobo ape Umber have been a family. For Umber is far more than a subject or pet. She types, reads, speaks sign language, favors psychedelic clothes, and even contemplates the nature of God. Then a colleague forces Jim to confront the reality he's tried to ignore: Umber and the other SAC apes are too intelligent to be pure bonobos. They are "augmented" apes, more like early hominids than to anthropoids. And when SAC abruptly demands Umber's immediate return, it becomes vital for Jim to discover why the corporation created this new species. The quest for answers will take Jim and his family to Africa, to a SAC facility that fronts as a preserve dedicated to helping once-captive chimps. But the grounds also hide a covert genetics lab, a missing band of blue-eyed apes, crude buildings decorated with skulls, and, deep in the shadows, human corpses savagely hacked to pieces... Now the struggle to uncover SAC's secrets becomes a fight for survival. Suddenly Umber, Brett, and Jim find themselves hunted by beings who are fiercely territorial, brutally aggressive, and far stronger than any human. And like humans they can be utterly, and murderously, psychotic...

The Rules of Inheritance by Claire Bidwell Smith Pdf

A powerful and searingly honest memoir about a young woman who loses her family but finds herself in the process. In this astonishing debut, Claire Bidwell Smith, an only child, is just fourteen years old when both of her charismatic parents are diagnosed with cancer. What follows is a coming-of-age story that is both heartbreaking and exhilarating. As Claire hurtles towards loss she throws herself at anything she thinks might help her cope with the weight of this harsh reality: boys, alcohol, traveling, and the anonymity of cities like New York and Los Angeles. By the time she is twenty-five years old they are both gone and Claire is very much alone in the world. Claire's story is less of a tragic tale and more of a remarkable lesson on how to overcome some of life's greatest hardships. Written with suspense and style, and bursting with love and adventure, The Rules of Inheritance vividly captures the deep grief and surprising light of a young woman forging ahead on a journey of loss that humbled, strengthened, and ultimately healed her.
