A vicious murder has taken place in the Lamoille Canyon outside of Elko, Nevada. The death triggers a series of events that scares people in the area for different reasons. Is the killer in the mist? And worst yet is it, someone, they all know? Jay Crowley lives near beautiful Lake Tahoe. Nevada with its big and small cities, ranching, mining, and gaming, offers great opportunities for stories.
Laura Shelton's father has issued an ultimatum--find herself a husband before the end of the year or he'll find one for her. She knows every single man in their small town in Michigan, and the thought of being tied to any one of them for the rest of her life fills her with dread. But what else can she do? Widower George Cowan is struggling to run his ranch and raise his six-year-old daughter, Betsy, alone. When her teacher points out that she acts more like a boy than a girl and suggests he marry again, he finally admits to himself that Betsy needs a mother. Even though he has no interest in loving another woman, he goes to Miranda Weaver to ask for her help in finding him a bride. When Laura learns of a friend planning to become a mail-order bride, she decides to do the same. After all, marrying a stranger can't be any worse than marrying any of the men she knows now. Laura is happy with her new life with George, and finds herself falling in love with him. As time goes by, she begins to suspect he feels the same way about her, but when near-tragedy strikes, she discovers her new life isn't as perfect as she thought. Can she live the rest of her life without love, or should she give up her dream of a husband who loves her and walk away?

Laura ... Sexy. Enigmatic. Randy. Insatiable. Welcome to her house of sexual experiments - and of spanking. Before internet porn, before porn videos, before porn movies, people lusting for raunchy, X-rated entertainment read pornographic books and magazines. Victorian England had its own adult entertainment industry - countless erotic novels were put out by shady publishers, some books were printed by the authors themselves, and most of the writers were anonymous. Many of these 19th century books are surprisingly kinky, and some of them may be quite offensive to modern day readers - in more ways than one. The anonymously written "Laura" is sometimes credited to the pseudonym James Jennings, the actual author behind this book may have been Patrick Henden.
Harri on kohonnut rakennustyömaiden apupojasta menestyväksi yrittäjäksi. Kilpailu suurten konsernien ja heittelehtivien suhdanteiden hallitsemalla kentällä on ankaraa, eikä Harri ole välttynyt stressiltä ja unettomilta öiltä. Tilannetta ei helpota entinen aliurakoitsija, joka vapautuu vankilasta ja tulee perimään saataviaan. Harri etsii vapautusta Laurasta, vanhasta rakkaudestaan, ja saatuaan vastakaikua häneltä, hallitsemattomat voimat pääsevät liikkeelle. Laura on tiukasti etenevä, terävien käänteiden näytelmä vastuusta, häpeästä ja syyllisyydestä. Se kysyy, mikä on unelmiemme ja elämänvalintojemme hinta. Näytelmä on enemmän kuin perinteinen kolmiodraama; se kasvaa peilikuvaksi nykyajan rikkinäisen ihmisen jatkuvasti kasvavista paineista niin työelämässä kuin ihmissuhteissa. Pasi Lampela on näytelmäkirjailija ja ohjaaja, jonka teoksista syntyy ainutlaatuinen kokoelma suomalaisessa näytelmäkirjallisuudessa.
From the author of Me and the Fat Man and Home comes a gripping historical novel set in Victorian London. This is a tale of murder and love – and the tragic extremes of loss and need. On a humid, thundery afternoon, Laura commits an appalling act – the murder of her husband. But is it so appalling to free yourself, to run after the only passion you’ve ever known? It is Billy who has to find an answer – Billy, fifteen years younger than her and already a father of five. But what he doesn’t know yet is that Laura also had a child, a child she gave up to the Foundling Hospital and whose memory will shape their future together in unimaginable ways. Julie Myerson’s new novel moves through a Victorian London which is tender, murky and unsettling. A spectacularly eerie and unforgettable love story.
