Geraldine, Emilia Mae, and Alice Wingo couldn't be more different from each other. Geraldine is a fiery beauty, turning heads while running the local bakery with her devoted husband, Earle-but she never quite takes to motherhood. Her daughter, Emilia Mae, spends her life chasing her mother's affection and goes looking for love in all the wrong places. So when she gives birth to her own daughter, Alice-the girl with the quick laugh and music running through her veins-she vows to do things differently. Then, Dillard Fox, a handsome stranger with a Southern drawl sails into town, bringing with him a gentle warmth that draws in all three of the Wingo women.

A vivid history of how Cold War politics helped solve one of the twentieth century’s biggest refugee crisesWhen World War II ended, about one million people whom the Soviet Union claimed as its citizens were outside the borders of the USSR, mostly in the Western-occupied zones of Germany and Austria. These “displaced persons,” or DPs—Russians, prewar Soviet citizens, and people from West Ukraine and the Baltic states forcibly incorporated into the Soviet Union in 1939—refused to repatriate to the Soviet Union despite its demands. Thus began one of the first big conflicts of the Cold War. In Lost Souls, Sheila Fitzpatrick draws on new archival research, including Soviet interviews with hundreds of DPs, to offer a vivid account of this crisis, from the competitive maneuverings of politicians and diplomats to the everyday lives of DPs. American enthusiasm for funding the refugee organizations taking care of DPs quickly waned after the war. It was only after DPs were redefined—from “victims of war and Nazism” to “victims of Communism”—in 1947 that a solution was found: the United States would pay for the mass resettlement of DPs in America, Australia, and other countries outside Europe. The Soviet Union protested this “theft” of its ... Unknown localization key: "more"

The mystery of 31 new inn book is written by R. Austin Freeman. The novel has a plot story that contains one of the last surviving inns of Chancery that has recently passed away after upwards of four centuries of newness. The tracking chart described in Chapters II and III has been actually used in practice. It is a modification of one devised by me when I was crossing Ashanti to the city of Bontuku.

The man's pupils were contracted to such an extreme degree that only the very minutest point of black was visible at the center of the grey iris. His features were relaxed and he seemed in a dreamy, somnolent state. Later on, the inquest into the death of Jeffrey Blackmore was opened and adjourned by Mr. Thorndyke, who asked Mr. Marchmont to describe in writing the circumstances surrounding his death. He saw a man lying on his bed in Mr. Blackmore's lodgings, and he seemed to be holding some small metal object in his hand. I thought it rather a queer affair, so he went across to the lodge and ...
