It is May of 1863 and the Civil War in North America has entered its third year. Facing a range of enemy threats, southern commander General Robert E.

It is the spring of 1864 and the Confederate raider Palmetto is off the Philippines, pursuing her campaign against US shipping. For her captain, Thomas Grover there is much to consider, for with the ship’s previously sustained engine damage not fully repaired, he learns that these seas are now patrolled by a new Union warship that vastly overmatches his own ship. As the war turns increasingly against the south, Grover must redouble his efforts against the enemy, but the hidden threats facing him are as dangerous as the known ones.

House of Meetings is a gothic love story, triangular in form and steeped in darkness. In 1946 Moscow, amid the palpable threat of pogroms, two brothers and a Jewish girl are drawn together in a fateful, tangled dance of desire and rivalry.

What begins as a brief, forbidden tryst lingers long after the brothers’ release, haunting their every step.

Prendere la propria vita e andare - per capire se stessa, trovare un futuro, non scendere più ma restare. Sono questi i motivi per cui, una mattina di maggio, Beatrice lascia Torino per trasferirsi tra le montagne. Quelle montagne che, ne è certa, sono donne anche se spesso recano nomi maschili. Donne come lei, che appena arrivata al rifugio del Barba, un uomo burbero dal passato misterioso, si sente respinta, in quanto "fumna e strangera".

It was a black night in the year 1620 when Christenze Krukow made the wax child, when she melted down beeswax and set it in the image of a small human. For days, she carried it tucked beneath her arm, shaping it with the warmth of her flesh, giving it life. She fashioned for it eyes and ears that cannot open, and yet – it watches and listens. It looks on as Christenze is haunted by rumour, it hears what the people whisper. It sees how, in the candlelight, she gazes with love at her friends, and hears the things they say in the shadows.
