Solomon and Egiap settle in a replica of an Irish cottage in Egypt, Mississippi.

Returning to Natchez, Mississippi, with money, Solomon Witcher reunites with family and friends. The Dundee family and Solomon disagree over treatment of slaves after Solomon announces his engagement in the slave trade. Solomon informs Sawyer of his premonitions of the upcoming war, of the death of someone close to him, and of a visit with Miriam at Clifton when she calls him a traitor. War erupts, and Sawyer and Solomon volunteer to serve the Confederacy and go their separate ways. As the war progresses, Laura Dundee, Stelcie Dundee, Miriam, and other Natchez citizens begin to feel its intrusion on the home front. The two cousins meet by chance during the siege of Vicksburg when Solomon crosses the siege lines between the two armies. Sawyer and Solomon talk with soldiers from Avoyelles Parish (LA), hear wounded soldiers discuss a female redheaded healer at Windsor Plantation, and endure the Union bombardment and share the hardships of the siege. Back in Union territory Solomon finds Zethro in a stockade, and the two men meet with Miss Tree, who relates cryptic words about Egiap. Zethro tells Solomon about what happened at Windsor Plantation as they search for Egiap, who has left an enigmatic missive. Still inside the Confederate lines at Vicksburg, Sawyer encounters some North Louisiana yeoman farmers, meets Xenophanes, and recruits a young soldier to participate in counter-tunneling at the Louisiana Redan. Sawyer is part of the surrender of Vicksburg and becomes a prisoner-of-war.

Stelcie Dundee and Zethro face dark times. Interlopers terrorize Stelcie and Zethro. A dream and a piece of red string prompt digging on the Dundee property to seek something Beulah buried. Egiap travels to Memphis where she eventually meets Beulah at a contraband camp and reunites with TaSondryana and Amarichi. In Georgia, the Dr. Andekian Onesiphoros Traveling Show encounters renegades on the road. Sawyer Dundee and Solomon Witcher, both in the Confederate escape expedition from Richmond, part as Sawyer continues with the Jefferson Davis column and Solomon takes command of a single treasury wagon. Sawyer, when the Davis column camps near Irwinville, Georgia, locates himself on the perimeter of the camp for the night. Sawyer is incapacitated during the time of President Davis' capture. Dr. A. O.'s Traveling Show, moving through Georgia, continues to see the destruction perpetrated by the Union armies but meets Southerners who demonstrate resilience and compassion for each other. At one campsite for the traveling show, Percival finds remnants of burned wagons and an almost-dead Sawyer. The traveling show puts on a performance in a small settlement and is interrupted by a Union calvary patrol. Sawyer takes over leadership of the traveling show. The traveling show meets former members of the Nancy Harts, an all-female militia. Sawyer eventually heads for Natchez. Solomon and his crew with their single wagon take an alternate way to the Gulf Coast to meet with other Confederates. Having a premonition, Solomon expresses his concern to his men and gives each man thirteen Mexican silver coins as payment for their service to the Confederacy. Severe storms cover the area. Solomon's crew and wagon are attacked during the stormy weather by renegades. At a ford for a small river Solomon and his crew meet more marauders during the storm and lose the wagon. Solomon is saved and given new hope by Red Cloud Woman and then heads for New Orleans. In Memphis, Egiap, staying with Mrs. Eddensly, feels the need to return to Avoyelles Parish in Louisiana with stops in Vicksburg and Natchez. Back in Natchez, Stelcie has to "swallow the yellow dog" when paying taxes. Abdoulaye visits the Dundee homestead, tells of meeting beautiful Tajri during his crossing of the Sahara as a captive of slavers, and goes into Natchez with his pushcart. Xenophanes, back in New Orleans with a theatrical company, revisits THE MUSTARD SEED and the Girod Street Cemetery, the location of his epiphany. Egiap in Marksville, Louisiana, seeks assistance from a former Confederate soldier to guide her to two locations. Solomon, in New Orleans, attempts to meet Xenophanes.

An unprecedented glimpse into the formation of the legendary talent of Leonard Cohen. Before the celebrated late-career world tours, before the Grammy awards, before the chart-topping albums, before 'Hallelujah' and 'So Long, Marianne' and 'Famous Blue Raincoat', the young Leonard Cohen wrote poetry and fiction and yearned for literary stardom. In A Ballet of Lepers, readers will discover that the magic that animated Cohen’s unforgettable body of work was present from the very beginning. Written between 1956 in Montreal, just as Cohen was publishing his first poetry collection, and 1961, when he’d settled on Greece’s Hydra island, the pieces in this collection offer startling insight into Cohen’s imagination and creative process, and explore themes that would permeate his later work, from shame and unworthiness to sexual desire to longing, whether for love, family, freedom or transcendence. The titular novel, A Ballet of Lepers – one he later remarked was 'probably a better novel' than his celebrated book The Favourite Game – is a haunting examination of these elements, while the fifteen stories, as well as the playscript, probe the inner demons of his characters, many of whom could function as stand-ins for the author himself. Meditative, surprising, playful and provocative, A Ballet of Lepers is vivid in its detail, unsparing in its gaze, and reveals the great artist and visceral genius like never before.

In antebellum Natchez, Mississippi, cousins Sawyer Dundee and Solomon Witcher come into manhood. Both cousins, back from college in the North, attend a party at Clifton, a grand mansion owned by an older couple, the Surgets, and befriend many of the elite Natchez social circle. Sawyer remains in Natchez to run the family sawmill and homestead. Solomon, admonished when he was young by Grandma Dundee that he was special and now realizing his personal luck, charm, and persuasiveness, strikes out on his own to seek legendary buried treasure of Natchez Trace outlaw preachers and Natchez Indians. He journeys to Louisiana to the Troyville Indian Mounds at Jonesville and the French settlements south of the Red River in Avoyelles Parish. He finds success near Marksville, where he hears of a redheaded female healer who had visited the area. Traveling to New Orleans to invest in the slave trade and pursue his luck at playing poker, Solomon encounters the redheaded Egypt and two of her followers--Ann, a Cajun woman who met her at a cemetery, and Zethro, a slave Egypt freed at the Theophilus Freeman Slave Market from a cruel master. Solomon, after learning of the red string legend, gris-gris bags, and a street preacher named Xenophanes, joins in a plot of vengeance stemming from the 1853 Yellow Fever epidemic in New Orleans with Egypt and her devotees that ends with voodoo and Celtic justice imposed upon a New Orleans businessman in the Girod Street Cemetery.

When a corpse is found in a body of water, authorities generally presume that the manner of death was either an accident or a suicide. They do not treat the recovery site as a potential crime scene or homicide, so many cases remain unsolved. Case Studies in Drowning Forensics investigates the cases of 13 bodies recovered from water in similar circu

'Charlotte Higgins's Red Thread is a masterwork' Ali Smith A thrillingly original, labyrinthine journey through myth, art, literature, history, archaeology and memoir. The tale of how the hero Theseus killed the Minotaur, finding his way out of the labyrinth using Ariadne's ball of red thread, is one of the most intriguing, suggestive and persistent of all myths, and the labyrinth - the beautiful, confounding and terrifying building created for the half-man, half-bull monster - is one of the foundational symbols of human ingenuity and artistry. Charlotte Higgins, author of the Baillie Gifford-shortlisted Under Another Sky, tracks the origins of the story of the labyrinth in the poems of Homer, Catullus, Virgil and Ovid, and with them builds an ingenious edifice of her own. Along the way, she traces the labyrinthine ideas of writers from Dante and Borges to George Eliot and Conan Doyle, and of artists from Titian and Velázquez to Picasso and Eva Hesse. Her intricately constructed narrative asks what it is to be lost, what it is to find one's way, and what it is to travel the confusing and circuitous path of a lived life. Red Thread is, above all, a winding and unpredictable route through the byways of the author's imagination - one that leads the reader on a strange and intriguing journey, full of unexpected connections and surprising pleasures.

A frank and engaging memoir, Following the Red Thread is a mother's full answer to her daughter's childhood question: 'why did you adopt me?' Making sense of her early experiences as both the preparation and her motivation to adopt, Kerr draws on the Chinese concept of the red thread to detail her long march towards China and the adoption of her much loved daughter. Along the way, she encounters many different 'Chinas' and comes to love the infinite variety that is the People's Republic on the cusp of the third millennium. Kerr's deep desire to adopt is intertwined with her journey back to faith. From an outright rejection of Christianity in her teens, she rediscovers her faith and realises a childhood promise to serve God overseas. Ultimately, in seeking out her daughter, she finds herself.
