Minette Walters’s expert plotting and her ability to quickly bring a large cast of characters to life put her in the same arena as Ruth Rendell. A homeless man who called himself Billy Blake is found dead of starvation in the garage of an expensive home near London’s Thames, and it looks as though he might be a merchant banker who disappeared in 1988 with 10 million pounds. A magazine journalist named Michael Deacon is intrigued by the case and by the missing banker’s wife and soon finds that there are much darker overtones to both. Other Walters books in paperback include Th

Here is Just’s masterpiece - an epic chronicle of three generations of Washington power brokers and the womenfolk who loved them (except when they didn’t). The Washington Post described this book as "a fascinating if ultimately painful fairy tale, complete with a family curse. The decline of the Behls represents the decline of Washington from the bright dawn of the American century into the gathering shadows of an alien new millennium."

Maybe I would become a mermaid....I would live in the swirling blue-green currents, doing exotic underwater dances for the fish, kissed by sea anemones, caressed by seaweed shawls. I would have a dolphin as a friend. He would have merry eyes and the thick sleeked flesh of a god. My fingernails would be tiny shells and my skin would be like jade with light shining through it. I would never have to come back up...Echo is caught at the crossroads of a physical world full of hope and despair and the realm of the supernatural, where young men have wings and skeletons speak. On the way, she is grace

AN ECHO is a compilation of poems both for fun, thought provoking and meaningfulness. Poetry is an expression of thought. What one poem may provoke in one person may be perceptively differently in another. Poetry is an essence of life, a bundle of words that can trigger a distant memory or comfort the present. Words written in rhyme can reassure us, bring a smile and even make us cry. I hope you find within these pages a poem that will be an echo, a memory of the past or present and mean something special to you that you can hold within your heart for all time.
