Sad-Eyed Lady of the Lowlands by Richard Woolley Pdf

A thinking and feeling persons whodunit set in Amsterdam and environs On her return from Africa, Monique Bongarts expects to be met at Schiphol by her English partner Peter, a historian at the University of Amsterdam. But he is not there and, on returning to their house in an Amsterdam suburb, she finds him in the shower naked and unconscious. He is rushed to hospital, but dies without regaining consciousness. Police issue a verdict of accidental death, but Monique is not satisfied and begins a search for the truth that leads her into the strange world of zinlos geweld (senseless violence) amongst urban youth, the amoral arena of late night TV sex shows made by her gay brother, and the double life of her partners boss Professor Piersma. The truth is eventually revealed, but only after Monique has uncovered bizarre facts about her brother, her partner, her partners boss, the local youth leader and the strange bonds that link them. It is information she might have preferred not to know, as in the end it brings out her own hedonistic side just like everyone else in Hollands increasingly selfish society, she too succumbs to the desire to do something crazy just for fun. A kaleidoscopic and intelligent low-key thriller, with an insiders eye for Amsterdam, that poses as many questions as it answers about Western society. Sharp and entertaining. LUC VAN de HOOP Great characters in a great setting with some very strange twists and turns. An original story and a good read from start to finish. CHARLOTTE BRANSON

Of Lands High and Low by Martha Keyes Pdf

2020 Whitney Award Winner Scotland 1794 For more than twenty years, the Lowland village of Craigmuir has been untouched by smallpox, leaving the people vulnerable to a painful lesson on the price of belonging, belief, and survival. Isla Findlay belongs nowhere. The daughter of a disgraced woman and the Highlander who abandoned them both, she tries to be a dutiful niece to the uncle who has taken her in, blending into the village as best she can. But when a young Highlander's arrival in the area coincides with an outbreak of dreaded smallpox, it stirs up questions about Isla's past and forces a confrontation between the beliefs she holds and the community she wants to belong to. Dr. Graeme MacNeill killed the only patient he ever had: his own father. The only way he can think to atone is to cut all ties from the Lowland world his father hated—including his education as a physician—and embrace the Highland heritage he used to be ashamed of. He travels to Craigmuir to sell the unwanted estate he has inherited from an uncle and return home, but fate—and the red-headed young woman he encounters in the village—have no intention of letting him leave things so easily behind.
