Wolf to the Slaughter
Author: Ruth Rendell
Publisher: Fawcett
ISBN: 0307829529
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 217
Book Description
“[Rendell is] undoubtedly one of the best writers of English mysteries and chiller-killer plots.”—Los Angeles Times It was better than a hotel, this anonymous room on a secluded side street of a small country town. No register to sign, no questions asked, and for five bucks a man could have three hours of undisturbed, illicit lovemaking. Then one evening a man with a knife turned the love nest into a death chamber. The carpet was soaked with blood -- but where was the corpse? Meanwhile, a beautiful, promiscuous woman is missing—along with the bundle of cash she'd had in her pocket. The truth behind it all will keep even veteran mystery fans guessing through the very last page. Praise for Wolf to the Slaughter “The best mystery writer anywhere in the English-speaking world.”—The Boston Globe “You cannot afford to miss Ruth Rendell.”—The New York Times Book Review “For readers who have almost given up on mysteries . . . Rendell may be just the woman to get them started again.”—Ellery Queen’s Mystery Magazine

One Rule to Live By BE GOOD
Author: Orest Stocco
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1926442229
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 372
Book Description
"Where Do We Come From? What Are We? Where Are We Going?" This is the title of the celebrated painting by French artist Paul Gauguin, questions that we would all like answered; but one can read all the libraries in the world and have every experience imaginable and still not know the answer to these questions. U of T professor and clinical psychologist Dr. Jordan B. Peterson offers a way to find the answer with his global bestseller 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos, but this will only take one so far on their journey to personal resolution that will answer Gauguin's three questions; the rest of the way has to be negotiated by special effort, which One Rule to Live By: Be Good by Georgian Bay author Orest Stocco spells out by "opening the door to a new way of perceiving, a new way of thinking and understanding," an unbelievable true story that defies comprehension; a story that takes the mystery out of what the great psychologist C. G. Jung called "the way of what is to come."
