Laura and Harry Bell are unaware of its tragic history when they move into an elegant mansion on Fisherman's Creek. They are a handsome but oddly matched couple: Laura, a willowy, serene blonde with the poise of a well-born Englishwoman; her husband is of a rougher cut, with a volatile temper and menacing aura. They met on a singles tour in Italy when his good looks and impressive physique attracted her at once. Laura hopes the move will revive their marriage. All goes well until the unexpected visit of Jason Hunter, Harry's college roommate. Then the Bells' life is changed forever. "A fun and fast read with lots of twists. This subtle and unique suspense story deceives the reader until the very end."-Ann Caron, author of Strong Mothers, Strong Sons. "Tina Bishop's first novel is filled with what seems like innocent maneuvering, but nothing should be taken for granted. Her use of setting and dialogue is fast-paced as she takes you on what may be the most circuitous mystery you will ever read."-Rev. Anita E. Keire, author of The Mustard Seed Series.

Homosexuality, bisexuality, transvestitism, and trans-genders represented new ideas, customs, and mentalities which shattered nineteenth-century Italy. At this time, Italy was a state in the making, with a growing population, a fading aristocracy, and new urban classes entering the scene. While still an extremely Catholic country, atheism and secularization slowly undermined the old, traditional morality, with literature and poetry endorsing innovative fashions coming from abroad. Laxity mixed with perversion, while new forms of sexuality mirrored the immense changes taking place in a society that, since time immemorial, was dominated by the Church and by a rigid class system. This was a revolution, parallel to the political movements that brought about the Unification of Italy in 1861, and was tormented, intense, and occasionally tragic. This collection of essays offers a rather comprehensive overview of this phenomenon. Personalities and places, ideas and novels, poetry and tragedy, law and customs, are the subject of ten essays, written by leading international experts in Italian history, the history of sexuality, literature and poetry. The Italian nineteenth century is a time of a number of rapid changes, visible and invisible revolutions, often given less attention than the unification process. This book makes a substantial contribution to Italian studies and modern European history.

A delightful romp around the British Isles searching out the mad marquess, the eccentric earl, the barmy baron, and the daft duke and gathering a fair collection of crackpot inventors, weird adventurers and fascinatingly and not to mention insanely curious customs along the way. All of which make this rainy little island home to that remarkable breed of individual - the British eccentric.This expanded book still doesn't tell you where Stonehenge is, but it does tell you where ten spookier stone circles are where there will be no crowds, no admission charges and no parking problems... This is a book for the intelligent, humorous, curious tourist who doesn't go with the crowd. It is also a great armchair read that has been known to have readers weeping with mirth at the weird ways of the British.
