Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Good. Book Club Edition. Jenny began looking for the cabin at dawn. All night she had lain motionless in the massive four-poster bed, unable to sleep, the stillness of the house oppressive and clutching. Even after weeks of knowing it would not come, her ears were still tuned for the baby's hungry cry. Her breast still filled, ready to welcome the tiny, eager lips. With these words begins a novel that takes, the reader into the heart and mind of Jenny MacPartland, who marries the man she loves- only to find herself trapped in a world of horror. .Jenny is a divorced mother of two girls-attractive, poor, charming and resourceful, skilled at making ends meet and hardly even daring to hope the right man will come along for her. A city girl, Jenny supports herself and her children by working in a fashionable Manhattan art gallery. It is there that she first becomes aware of the paintings of Erich Krueger- brilliantly detailed, lyrical evocations of peaceful country life that touch her deeply- and, above all, of the haunting portrait of a beautiful woman who seems to her strangely familiar. When she meets Krueger, a handsome, powerful and elegant man, Jenny is swept off her feet. After a lightning courtship, Erich marries Jenny and carries her off to his home in Minnesota, a home of such wealth, comfort and luxury that Jenny feels like a princess in a fairy story, despite the forbidding, cold and brooding landscape-and the rumors that something terrible once happened in the exquisite Krueger mansion. Soon, however, Jenny's happiness is shattered by a series of bizarre and terrifying incidents that threaten first her marriage, then her children, then her life-until Jenny's only hope lies in unraveling the truth about the past, a truth that is hidden in the great house which has become her prison.

Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. No Dust Jacket. First Edition. Tight unmarked book in glossy illustrated boards.; 9 X 0.3 X 10 inches; 60 pages; In March 1914, 132 men from the SS Newfoundland scrambled onto the treacherous North Atlantic ice floes to hunt seals. Lost in a sudden blizzard, the sealers wandered for two days and nights before rescue. Only 55 made it back alive. This disaster had a deep and lasting effect; one hundred years later, the story still resonates. Perished traces the events leading up to, during, and after the tragedy, revisiting the horrors of those days and nights on the ice and examining its long-term ramifications. It is also a one-of-a-kind backgrounder on the seal hunt, exploring the roots of the industry, the conditions on board the sealing vessels, the cut-throat competitiveness of sealing captains, and the determination of sealers who put their lives on the line every spring as they headed to the ice. Illustrated with more than 200 rarely seen archival photos and documents, including pull-out facsimiles of maps, log book entries, telegrams, a sealer's ticket for the SS Newfoundland, and more.…
