Impossible Causes Джули Мэйхью
ISBN: 9781408897010 Год издания: 2020 Издательство: Raven Books For seven months of the year, the remote island of Lark is fogbound, cut off completely from the mainland. The arrival of three strangers is the cause of much speculation: the first is a charismatic young teacher – the only male teacher on the island – the other two, a mother and her teenage daughter, seeking a place to hide from unspeakable tragedy.

And whose body will soon be found lying in the island's stone circle? -

The Electrical Venus Джули Мэйхью

Red Ink Джули Мэйхью
ISBN: 978-1471400346 Год издания: 2013 Издательство: Hot Key Books Язык: Английский When her mother is knocked down and killed by a London bus, fifteen-year-old Melon Fouraki is left with no family worth mentioning. Her mother, Maria, never did introduce Melon to a 'living, breathing' father. The indomitable Auntie Aphrodite, meanwhile, is hundreds of miles away on a farm in Crete, and is unlikely to be jumping on a plane and coming to East Finchley anytime soon. But at least Melon has 'The Story'. 'The Story' is the Fourakis family fairytale. A story is something. "Red Ink" is a powerful coming-of-age tale about superstition, denial and family myth.
