Speedwell

An Impossible Impostor (eBook, ePUB)

While investigating a man claiming to be the long-lost heir to a noble family, Veronica Speedwell gets the surprise of her life in this new adventure from the New York Times bestselling and Edgar Award-nominated author Deanna Raybourn. London, 1889. Veronica Speedwell and her natural historian beau Stoker are summoned by Sir Hugo Montgomerie, head of Special Branch. He has a personal request on behalf of his goddaughter, Euphemia Hathaway. After years of traveling the world, her eldest brother, Jonathan, heir to Hathaway Hall, was believed to have been killed in the catastrophic eruption of Krakatoa a few years before. But now a man matching Jonathan's description and carrying his possessions has arrived at Hathaway Hall with no memory of his identity or where he has been. Could this man truly be Jonathan, back from the dead? Or is he a devious impostor, determined to gain ownership over the family's most valuable possessions-a legendary parure of priceless Rajasthani jewels? It's a delicate situation, and Veronica is Sir Hugo's only hope. Veronica and Stoker agree to go to Hathaway Hall to covertly investigate the mysterious amnesiac. Veronica is soon shocked to find herself face-to-face with a ghost from her past. To help Sir Hugo discover the truth, she must open doors to her own history that she long believed to be shut for good.

Daffodils: The Katherine Wheel Saga, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 582min

Katy, a maidservant at Cheadle Manor, longs to escape her narrow life but events unfold slowly in her rural village. Finally, frustrated by personal tragedy and the shackles that continue to bind her, she becomes a mechanic in the WAAC as part of the British Expeditionary Force. Through the horrors of WW1 she discovers only love brings freedom. Note from the author For fans of historical fiction, Daffodils is part one of a true love trilogy, The Katherine Wheel Saga, set in Wiltshire, England at the time of the First World War. It starts slowly. Life changes little in Cheadle. Petty scandals, gossip, and the huge gap between the haves and those who serve them continue to dominate their small world. Daffodils follows the gallant women who provided the backbone for the army, not just the nurses, but the gender-defying mechanics and drivers who managed the vehicles and ambulances. But in essence, Daffodils is a love story whose tender heart is almost torn apart through this tumultuous time. Book Two of the Katherine Wheel Saga is called Peace Lily. Find out how these characters fared after the Armistice when they entered a new, modern age. A third book, Speedwell, completes the trilogy...for now...and takes the characters into the daring arena of motor racing in the 1920s. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Alex Martin.
