The Gift of the Darkness
In Seattle's upscale Blueridge neighborhood, James Sinclair, his wife Anne, and their two small boys are found brutally murdered in their home. Their bodies are carefully laid out: blindfolded, hands tied, and crosses drawn in blood across their foreheads. Above the bedroom door, the words "thirteen days" are scratched into the frame. At the same time, a card with the words "thirteen days" written on it is delivered to the office of powerful lawyer Nathan Quinn, a partner at Sinclair's law firm. From the evidence found at the scene, rookie homicide detective Alice Madison and her seasoned partner Detective Sergeant Brown determine that the prime suspect is John Cameron, a fugitive long wanted for the infamous Nostromo killings. But only Cameron's attorney knows his whereabouts, and though the clock is ticking, he seems more interested in protecting his client than preventing another murder. That attorney is none other than Nathan Quinn. Madison and Brown...

Джон Фаулз Мантисса
Тогда, тщательно исследовав свое "Я", я понял, что могу вообразить, что у меня нет тела, что внешнего мира не существует, и не существует места, где я нахожусь, но, несмотря на это, я не могу вообразить, что я не существую; напротив, самый тот факт, что я могу подвергнуть сомнению реальность других предметов, заставляет сделать ясный и четкий вывод, что я существую; в то время как, если бы только я перестал мыслить, даже в том случае, если бы все, о чем я когда бы то ни было успел помыслить, соответствовало действительности, у меня не было бы основания полагать, что я существую: отсюда я заключил, что я есть существо, чья суть, или природа, заключается в мышлении и не только не нуждается в месте существования, но и не зависит в своем существовании от каких бы то ни было материальных предметов. Следовательно, это "Я", то есть душа, благодаря которой я есть то, что я есть, совершенно отлична от тела, легче познается, чем тело, и, более того, не перестанет быть тем, что она есть, даже если бы тела не существовало.

The Lady Is a Lush
Why do pretty housewives like Amy Collins so often fall into that common trap - the afternoon hour at some bar? Do they drink because of loneliness, boredom with a society that offers too little to women? Or is it the other way around? Is it the alcohol itself that generates the urge for male companionship, excitement, thrills?

Sheba
Sheba - that was her real name - looked innocent as a lamb and twice as cuddly. She happened to be a she-wolf in sheep’s clothing. A saleswoman, that is - who used her retching femininity to move merchandise.
