Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. She built the wall that keeps his kind out. Her own magic just opened a door in it.Devi Grail has given her whole life to the treaty that keeps the peace. She is the coven's Wardmaker, the living seam between Boston's witches and the ancient vampire clan on Beacon Hill, and she has buried every want she ever had beneath her duty to the wall. She tells herself that is enough.Then someone starts unmaking her wards from the inside, the clan sends its lethal enforcer to find out who, and a blade meant to kill her forces August Crane to make a choice no vampire is allowed to make. He gives her his blood. He saves her life. And he binds her power to his in a way that damns them both.The bond is a crime punishable by death on both sides of the treaty. It is also the only weapon strong enough to stop what is coming. Because the Pact was never only a peace. It was a cage, and the thing inside it is waking, and the two people sworn to keep the wall standing are the only ones who can hold the line, if the choosing does not get them killed first.He waited two centuries to want anything. She swore she never would again. Neither of them counted on the other.Perfect for readers who love: fated mates, forbidden love across enemy lines, a slow burn that pays off in full, a heroine with real power who does her own choosing, a centuries-old hero holding himself on a leash, found family, and an ancient mystery that burns hotter with every book.Undone by Midnight is the first book in The Pact, a fated-mates vampire-and-witch paranormal romance trilogy. Steamy, forbidden, and fated to the bone, with a guaranteed happily ever after for its couple and a war three centuries in the making underneath.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. She builds faces for the dead. This one built one back.Dr. Celia Beckman has spent twenty years pressing clay over bone in a Chicago basement, and twenty years not telling anyone what else she can do - that the dead leave a residue, and she can read it.Case No. 4022 comes out of a collapsed embankment with no name, no file, and nobody looking. When Celia finishes his face at two in the morning, she recognizes him. So would half of Europe. The royal house of Aldervik has spent twenty-two years insisting he is alive and living quietly abroad.Then the north end of her lab drops nine degrees, and a man in a good wool coat asks her to say out loud that she can see him.He calls himself Klaus. He cannot touch anything. He cannot go more than nineteen feet from his own bones. He cannot be heard by another living person on earth. He is also funny, and unbearably kind, and the first person in ten years to make Celia want to come home to something.Naming him means going up against people who erase men for a living.Freeing him means a fourteenth-century rite with a price taken the moment she speaks it - ten years off the far end of her life, whether it works or not.Celia already lost a decade to grief. This time she gets to choose who takes it.What's insideA ghost you can't touch and forced proximity measured in feet - nineteen of themA slow burn that stays lit for three hundred pagesA heroine in her forties who is extremely good at her jobA genuinely warm, genuinely funny hero who has been alone for twenty-two yearsA real cold-case investigation - dental records, chain of custody, a shoebox in a hall cupboardA royal cover-up, a fourteenth-century manuscript, and a bargain with a costA best friend who tells the truth, a detective who is nobody's fool, and a badly behaved dogFor readers of The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, The Time Traveler's Wife, and A Discovery of Witches - and anyone who has ever wanted a ghost story that takes both the ghost and the story seriously.Content notes: murder (described), grief and widowhood, institutional coercion. No on-page intimacy - for most of this book they cannot touch at all, and that is entirely the point. When a forensic artist reconstructs the face of a long-lost royal, she discovers the man is not truly gone, but haunting her lab as a spirit. To grant him peace, she must risk a life-altering bargain against those who thrive on secrets. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Every era gets the fakes it deserves. In the 1860s, grieving Victorians paid photographers to summon translucent "spirits" onto glass plates. By the 1930s, a Scottish doctor armed with a toy submarine convinced the planet that a prehistoric monster lurked in Loch Ness. Fast-forward to the age of social media and anyone with a laptop can fabricate a world leader saying something they never said - and millions will believe it before breakfast. LOOKS LEGIT is the definitive fact book for anyone who has ever squinted at a viral image and muttered, "There is no way that is real." Spanning more than 150 years of photographic and digital deception, this book unpacks the techniques, motives, and cultural forces behind the most infamous visual hoaxes ever created - from double-exposed spirit photographs and retouched wartime propaganda to UFO snapshots, cryptid footage, doctored celebrity images, AI-generated deepfakes, and everything in between. Each chapter delivers 20 to 25 meticulously researched, fully verifiable facts designed to surprise, educate, and entertain. You will learn how a pair of teenage girls fooled Arthur Conan Doyle with cardboard fairies, why NASAeli had to keep debunking a faked Moon-landing photo that was itself a hoax about a hoax, and how a single deepfake video nearly destabilized a central African government. This is a book about seeing - and about all the spectacular ways we have been tricked into seeing things that were never there. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The question of what is matter has fascinated the humanrace for thousands of years, and continues to fascinate ustoday: what is it made of, and how does it behave Early inour history, the character of natural materials was of criticalimportance to us, and it is no accident that we date theprehistory of humanity by the materials with which ourpredecessors made their tools. Tools are one of the moreenduring creations of our prehistoric ancestors, and are ofparticular historical significance as they document theincreasing technological sophistication of the human race.From the Stone Age to the Bronze Age to the Iron Age,there was an increasing awareness of the diversity ofnatural materials, how they could be used, and eventually,how they could be processed in order to provide even moretechnologically effective materials for our use. Thisincreasing reliance on rocks and minerals required thatmore and more people be conversant with these materialsand their properties. The atomistic theory of the Greeks was a solely philosophicalconstruct, and further development had to await a more sophisticatedapproach to Science. The first steps in this directionwere taken by who else but Isaac Newton (1643-1727 AD).Although his ideas on action at a distance initially referred toplanets, he also considered them as applying to atoms, and concludedfrom physical evidence involving surface tension andviscosity that there must be strong attractions between atoms.In what must be considered as insight of legendary proportions,Roger Joseph Boscovich (1711-1787), a Jesuit mathematicianfrom Croatia, proposed that at very short distances, atomsrepulse each other, the repulsion increasing indefinitely as theparticles become closer together, whereas at longer distancesapart, atoms oscillate between attraction and repulsion.Frank Hawthorne uses the republication of this set of landmarkpapers as a vehicle to focus on the development of key issuesconcerning structural connectivity in inorganic solids, of whichminerals are a key component, and to look at where we aretoday in our understanding of crystal structure.…
