Book Description
Justin Stokes would never forget the summer she turned fourteen, nor the woman who transformed her bleak adolescent life into a wondrous place of brilliant color. In the little pondside hut also known as the “finishing school,” eccentric, free-spirited Ursula DeVane opened up a world full of magical possibilities for Justin, teaching her valuable lessons of love and loyalty, and encouraging her to change, to learn, to grow. But the lessons of the finishing school have their dark side as well, as Justin learns how deep friendship can be shattered by shocking, unforgivable betrayal. NOTE: This edition does not include images.

Book Description
Regularly understood through comparison with the alleged deviousness and untrustworthiness of the French, honesty was considered an essential---and indeed perhaps the defining---virtue of the English in the nineteenth century. And yet, as "The Best Policy: Lying and National Character in Victorian and French Novels" argues, several popular Victorian novelists (Gaskell, Dickens, Thackeray, and Trollope) actually advocate distinct forms of lying, while French novelists of the period (Balzac, Maupassant, Daudet, and Zola) depict the same kinds of lies as dangerous, even lethal. In order to explain this peculiar reversal and its ramifications for constructions of British national character, I examine three species of lies that recur in Victorian fiction and culture: the transparent lie, one that listeners agree to accept and perpetuate even though they recognize it as a lie; the speculative lie, which lures investors into ruinous commercial schemes by co-opting the language of religious faith; and the entrepreneurial lie, which exploits stale and uncritical expectations of institutions like marriage, family, and social class. The symbolic level of speech upon which lies depend renders lying a powerful means of pursuing individual agency within tightly regulated Victorian society, whereas the post-Revolutionary focus on individual freedoms within French society relieves some of the urgency of preserving personal agency and encourages novelists to emphasize the selfish and socially corrosive dimensions of telling lies. In order to develop characteristic British individualism, however, one must learn how to lie well, suggesting that for Victorians, honesty is not always the best policy.

Book Description
Vampires . . . they ache, they love, they thirst for the forbidden. They are your friends and lovers, and your worst fears. “A major new voice in horror fiction . . . an electric style and no shortage of nerve.”—Booklist At a club in Missing Mile, N.C., the children of the night gather, dressed in black, look for acceptance. Among them are Ghost, who sees what others do not; Ann, longing for love; and Jason, whose real name is Nothing, newly awakened to an ancient, deathless truth about his father, and himself. Others are coming to Missing Mile tonight. Three beautiful, hip vagabonds—Molochai, Twig, and the seductive Zillah, whose eyes are as green as limes—are on their own lost journey, slaking their ancient thirst for blood, looking for supple young flesh. They find it in Nothing and Ann, leading them on a mad, illicit road trip south to New Orleans. Over miles of dark highway, Ghost pursues, his powers guiding him on a journey to reach his destiny, to save Ann from her new companions, to save Nothing from himself. . . . “An important and original work . . . a gritty, highly literate blend of brutality and sentiment, hope and despair.”—Science Fiction Chronicle
