The nature of Eddie’s work changed after that trip, as did his relationship with Anna, who resented being left behind. One of the last trips they took together was to Dexter Styles’ fashionable home at Manhattan Beach. Eddie took Anna along with him on jobs until she was old enough that her presence became problematic for him. He often worked as a messenger/mule for the union boss, Dunellen, who has known Eddie since childhood. Eddie’s skill set involves an excellent memory, an eye/ear for detail, and an ability to fade into the background. Eddie worked for the dock workers union, which seems to have been a front for organized crime. As a child, Anna was very close to her father Eddie Kerrigan. ![]() The central character of Manhattan Beach is Anna Kerrigan, whom we meet as an 11-year-old in 1934 and then get to know better as a 20-year-old working at the Naval Shipyard in 1942-43. At the end, I was wondering why characters behaved as they did and why the significance of their actions was not better explained. The problems for me involve both character and plot development. ![]() It also involves a mystery - that of the missing father. Set in New York during the pre-war and WWII period, Manhattan Beach explores women’s factory work, the dangerous world of diving, and the merchant marine. This novel should have been an easy like for me. ![]() ![]() I have a chance to start again, and this time, I make the rules. A very dangerous adventure that will change my life forever. Thankfully forty isn't too old to start an adventure, because that's exactly what I do. That is, until I learn what the house really is, something I never could've imagined. I'll be taking care of a centuries old house that called to me when I was a kid. Age is just a number, after all, and at forty I'm ready to carve my own path.Įager for a fresh start, I make a somewhat unorthodox decision and move to a tiny town in the Sierra foothills. This time, though, I plan to do things differently. But when my husband of twenty years packs up and heads for greener pastures and my son leaves for college, that's exactly what my life becomes. "Happily Ever After" wasn't supposed to come with a do-over option. ![]() ![]() A cape wearing butler acting as the world's worst life coach. ![]() ![]() So, if you are curious about the lives and deaths (mostly deaths) of the very famous - look no further! From King Tut to Pocahontas to Mozart to Antoinette, this book has it all! I was surprised by how interesting death was - especially back in the day where it seems like a stray needle could induce sepsis (I swear, I am 5x more grateful for modern medicine than ever before). The authors were really right - you hear all about these famous folks over your lifetime but you don't really know how they ended. ![]() ![]() Overall, this was a surprisingly enjoyable book! You probably don't know how George Washington, Cleopatra or Beethoven ate it because every other book you've read skipped over that part.If you are curious about the very famous and the very dead - this book is for you! Looking back from where we sit now, people a long time ago sure did some dumb stuff - and it's definitely the kind of stuff worth writing about.There's also been a lot of famous people in this world but for some reason, the end of their lives remain a mystery. Seriously, there were A LOT of deaths thanks to disease, idiocy and lack of general hygiene. ![]() People have lived and they have died.Īnd before the modern era, they died a lot easier. ![]() Remember when you watched Bambi for the first time and you got to the part where Bambi's mother died.And in that second you realized that if Bambi's mom can die, so can everybody else. ![]() ![]() ![]() Perfect formatting in rich text compatible with Kindle’s Text-to-Speech features.Īll of Poe's tales, poems, and essays are included-over 125 works.

Her hunt for suitable premises is interrupted by the discovery of five corpses hanging from a gibbet and later by the attempted poisoning of her old friend, Lord Roger de Hutton. Down these mean forest paths rides the well-connected Hildegard, recently widowed and even more recently a nun with money to burn, she wants to establish a religious house of her own. Much of England is woodland, and lawless. Richard II is still a minor, so instability abounds pockets of resistance remain after Wat Tyler's rebellion and there's a superfluity of popes adding to the religious turmoil already fuelled by Wycliffe and his vernacular Bible.
