Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Step through the gates of one of the world's most famous cemeteries - and learn to read it the way its Victorian visitors once did.Highgate Cemetery has been many things across nearly two centuries: a commercial solution to a Victorian sanitation crisis, a fashionable status symbol for London's rising middle class, a nearly abandoned ruin swallowed by ivy, the epicenter of a bizarre 1970s vampire panic, and finally a rescued heritage site saved by ordinary volunteers with hand tools and nothing but determination.Structured as a guided walking tour and narrated by a scholarly, gleefully morbid historian-guide, HIGHGATE takes you through twenty chapters covering: - The Egyptian Avenue and the Victorian fashion for borrowed antiquity- The Circle of Lebanon, built in a ring around a cedar older than the cemetery itself- The full, unsentimental economics of Victorian death - what a grave actually cost, and what that meant- The coded language of mourning: broken columns, reversed torches, angels who won't meet your eye- Karl Marx, George Eliot, and Michael Faraday - three very different graves, three very different arguments about what a monument is for- The infamous "Highgate Vampire" panic of 1970, and how a derelict cemetery became a tabloid sensation- The volunteer rescue that saved the cemetery from ruin, grave by grave, ivy strand by ivy strand- The cemetery as it exists today - still receiving burials, still selling plots, still very much aliveThis is not a dry academic survey. It's a walk - through iron gates, sunken avenues, and quiet unconsecrated ground - told by a guide who finds the whole business of Victorian death genuinely, unapologetically fascinating, and wants you to feel the same way by the time you reach the gate again.For readers of Victorian social history, London history, cemetery and mortuary studies, and anyone who has ever wondered what a headstone is actually trying to tell you.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - They came to Highgate Cemetery searching for a hidden library. They left as something else entirely.In 1849, Charlotte, Emily, and Anne Brontë slip into London's most infamous graveyard chasing rumors of a forbidden occult archive buried beneath the tombs. What they find instead is an ancient vampire lord named Charles Baudelaire, awakened from a crypt older than the city itself, and a bite that changes everything.Transformed but unbroken, the sisters swear a blood oath: they will never become the monsters that made them. Armed with silver katanas, steel claws, and an armored hearse named Heathcliff, they wage a gothic war beneath London's fog-choked streets against feral vampire broods, reanimated corpses, occult cultists, and Baudelaire himself, a poet-aristocrat convinced the Brontë bloodline is destined to serve an ambition eighty years in the making.But Baudelaire's true plan reaches far beyond three sisters. Buried deep beneath the city sleeps something older than vampirism itself, and every ritual, every feast, every seduction has been leading toward its waking.Sassy, savage, and soaked in candlelight and blood, Vampires of Highgate reimagines England's most beloved literary sisters as reluctant monster hunters fighting to keep their humanity while the city they love burns around them. Fast, pulpy, cinematic gothic horror for anyone who ever wondered what the Brontës might have done with a sword.Perfect for fans of penny dreadfuls, Hammer horror, and Victorian London gone gloriously wrong.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Dark Waters Hide Deadly Secrets.When Able Seaman Gabriel Steel is found murdered aboard the HMCS Talon, a Canadian Navy ship docked in the quiet coastal town of Silver Creek, Detective Megan Turner is pulled into a case unlike anything she's faced before. What should have been a straightforward investigation quickly turns into a labyrinth of hidden tensions, fractured loyalties, and unsettling silence from a crew that seems more afraid than grieving.As Megan digs into Gabriel's life, she uncovers simmering conflicts aboard the Talon-rivalries between sailors, secret relationships, and the lingering shadow of a mission no one wants to talk about. Every question she asks tightens the wall of resistance around her, and every answer she receives only deepens the mystery. Meanwhile, journalist Sienna Blake begins her own investigation, following a whisper of information that suggests Gabriel's death may be connected to something far larger than a shipboard dispute. Her search leads her deep into the politics of naval operations, buried reports, and a conspiracy with roots stretching far beyond Silver Creek's peaceful shoreline. But the closer she gets to the truth, the more dangerous her path becomes.As the lines between truth and cover-up blur, Megan and Sienna are forced into an uneasy alliance. Together, they must unravel a web of secrets, personal betrayals, and powerful forces determined to keep the past buried-no matter the cost.With danger closing in and a killer still watching from the shadows, the investigation becomes a race against time. If Megan and Sienna fail to uncover the truth, Gabriel Steel won't be the last body found in the cold, unforgiving waters off Silver Creek.A tense, atmospheric thriller perfect for fans of police procedurals, investigative suspense, and character-driven mysteries. In the world of the Talon, trusting the wrong person could be deadly. This item is printed on demand.
