These Shallow Graves【電子書籍】[ Jennifer Donnelly ]
From Jennifer Donnelly, the critically acclaimed <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>A Northern Light</i> and <i>Revolution</i>, comes a mystery about dark secrets, dirty truths, and the lengths to which people will go for love and revenge. For fans of Elizabeth George and Libba Bray, <i>These Shallow Graves</i> is the story of how much a young woman is willing to risk and lose in order to find the truth.<br>?? Jo Montfort is beautiful and rich, and soonーlike all the girls in her classーshe’ll graduate from finishing school and be married off to a wealthy bachelor. Which is the last thing she wants. Jo dreams of becoming a writerーa newspaper reporter like the trailblazing Nellie Bly.<br>?? Wild aspirations aside, Jo’s life seems perfect until tragedy strikes: her father is found dead. Charles Montfort shot himself while cleaning his pistol. One of New York City’s wealthiest men, he owned a newspaper and was a partner in a massive shipping firm, and Jo knows he was far too smart to clean a loaded gun. <br>?? The more Jo hears about her father’s death, the more something feels wrong. Suicide is the only logical explanation, and of course people have started talking, but Jo’s father would never have resorted to <i>that.</i> And then she meets Eddieーa young, smart, infuriatingly handsome reporter at her father’s newspaperーand it becomes all too clear how much she stands to lose if she keeps searching for the truth. But now it might be too late to stop. <br>?? The past never stays buried forever. Life is dirtier than Jo Montfort could ever have imagined, and this time the truth is the dirtiest part of all.<br><br><u><b>Praise for <i>These Shallow Graves</i>:</b></u><br><br>"<i>These Shallow Graves</i> delivered all that I adore: <b>lovely prose, historical intrigue, unique characters and setting</b>.

Raf and the Robots【電子書籍】[ Sarah J Corner ]
Set in a deliberately ambiguous unconventional family, young Raf learns about getting his timing right. The family in the book could represent a number of real family situations - a poly family, a couple with a donor or surrogate, a blended family with an involved ex, sisters living together, or many other configurations. This book was written with the belief that all children should be able to see their families depicted in the stories around them. Author bio: Sarah J Corner is a qualified early childhood educator, mother and author. She studied a dual Bachelor degree at Melbourne University and has taught in both early childhood and primary school settings. Sarah has a particular interest in writing and advocating for polyamorous families, rainbow families, split families and other unconventional family structures. Her first book "Raf and the Robots" is set in a deliberately ambiguous unconventional family, and tells the story of a creative young boy learning to get his timing right. Stories for Unique Families was started by Sarah as a way of contributing to the huge task of representing diversity in children's books, particularly in the areas of gender and sexuality. Sarah lives with her very own wonderfully unique family in the inner northern suburbs of Melbourne. When she isn’t writing Sarah enjoys travelling, dancing and taking her daughter for rides in her cargo bike. Illustrator bio: When Kia Maddock was a little girl she was more often than not found drawing pictures and creating fun-filled art works. This childhood passion has now blossomed into her career in children's book illustration. Her published works include 'The Girl with the Golden hair', 'Silly Sausage', 'The Little She-Wolf'' and now 'Raf and the Robots.' Kia's style is uniquely versatile from the fun, simple and quirky to the mystical, beautiful and detailed. You can visit her etsy shop 'DearKia' to discover her whimsical side. Kia comes from a family of artists and is often buzzing with inspiration and creativity, pouring lots of love and energy into creative endeavors such as funding her travels by painting murals as she goes; and designing and creating toys from recycled materials. Most of all Kia enjoys creating picture books with her three year old son, Toshi, who comes up with the wonderful words and instructs her on what to draw next. Their books include 'Book' and 'Meow Meow Cat Meow'. Toshi is her greatest source of joy and inspiration. Kia is also greatly inspired by the work of Rudolf Steiner and weaves her understanding of nurturing imagery for children into her illustration work wherever possible.画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Anna of Byzantium【電子書籍】[ Tracy Barrett ]
<b>For fans of Joan of Arc and Alexander the Great, comes "a gripping saga of alliances, intrigues, deceits, and treacheries" about Anna Comnena of the Byzantine Empire.</b><br><br>? Anna Comnena has every reason to feel entitled. She's a princess, her father's firstborn and his chosen successor. Someday she expects to sit on the throne and rule the vast Byzantine Empire. So the birth of a baby brother doesn't perturb her. Nor do the "barbarians" from foreign lands, who think only a son should ascend to power. Anna is as dismissive of them as are her father and his most trusted adviser--his mother, a manipulative woman with whom Anna studies the art of diplomacy. Anna relishes her lessons, proving adept at checkmating opponents in swift moves of mental chess. But as she matures into a young woman, her arrogance and intelligence threaten her grandmother. Anna will be no one's puppet. Almost overnight, Anna sees her dreams of power wrenched from her and bestowed on her little brother. Bitter at the betrayal, Anna waits to avenge herself, and to seize what is rightfully hers.<br><br><u><b>Praise for <i>Anna of Byzantium</i>:</b></u><br><b>A <i>Bulletin</i> Blue Ribbon Book</b><br> <b>An ALA Quick Pick</b><br> <b>An ALA Best Book for Young Adults</b><br> <b>A <i>Booklist</i> Editor's Choice</b><br> <b>A <i>Booklist</i> Top Ten Historical Fiction Pick</b><br><br> [<b>STAR</b>] "[<i>Anna of Byzantium</i>] involves readers in <b>a gripping saga of alliances, intrigues, deceits, and treacheries</b> worthy of a place among the tragic myths." ー <i>The Bulletin</i>, Starred review<br><br> "<b>In the tradition of E.

Edgar Brim is a sensitive orphan who, exposed to horror stories from his father as a young child, is afraid of almost everything and suffers from nightly terrors. His stern new guardian, Mr. Thorne, sends the boy to a gloomy school in Scotland where his dark demons only seem to worsen and he is bullied and ridiculed for his fears.
