Her sister has been dead for fifteen years when she sees her on the TV news... Josie Bianci was killed years ago on a train during a terrorist attack. Gone forever. It's what her sister, Kit, an ER doctor in Santa Cruz, has always believed. Yet all it takes is a few heart-wrenching seconds to upend Kit's world. Live coverage of a club fire in Auckland has captured the image of a woman stumbling through the smoke and debris. Her resemblance to Josie is unbelievable. And unmistakable. With it comes a flood of emotions--grief, loss, and anger--that Kit finally has a chance to put to rest: by finding the sister who's been living a lie. After arriving in New Zealand, Kit begins her journey with the memories of the past: of days spent on the beach with Josie. Of a lost teenage boy who'd become part of their family. And of a trauma that has haunted Kit and Josie their entire lives. Now, if two sisters are to reunite, it can only be by unearthing long-buried secrets and facing a devastating truth that has kept them apart far too long. To regain their relationship, they may have to lose everything.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx27q307fkcc6kw8f1n6txfb.jpg?v=a7b3ea5c58","LjPOxM%ewJoI~BbYr?s:4WV@WVof",2019,"5.00",[467],{"id":468,"slug":469,"name":470},"01kqmpkjemdkvg0gbwh41jp96z","barbara-samuel-pue8","Barbara Samuel",[472,476],{"id":473,"name":474,"slug":475,"is_fiction":16},33,"Contemporary Romance","contemporary-romance",{"id":477,"name":478,"slug":479,"is_fiction":16},38,"Romantic Comedy","romantic-comedy",[],{"pace":278,"complexity":7,"audience":96,"mood":482,"themes":483,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[249,184],[484,102],"dual-timeline",{"id":486,"slug":487,"title":488,"description":7,"primary_cover_url":489,"cover_blurhash":490,"first_publish_year":491,"community_rating_avg":465,"community_rating_count":82,"page_count":492,"authors":493,"genres":498,"series":507,"enrichment":508},"01kx2h470shq776eqg8jsnh3d6","members-only-owpg","Members Only","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2h471abbw5ft8wq650kzbf.jpg?v=c233946b01","L69eQpu518cGl,WExus+06WUs*Wr",2020,368,[494],{"id":495,"slug":496,"name":497},"01kx2h4714rkemktv9npy4wfh3","sameer-pandya-l4oa","Sameer Pandya",[499,503],{"id":500,"name":501,"slug":502,"is_fiction":16},59,"Contemporary Literature","contemporary-literature",{"id":504,"name":505,"slug":506,"is_fiction":16},119,"Humor","humor",[],{"pace":278,"complexity":7,"audience":96,"mood":509,"themes":510,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[280,184],[511,102],"coming-of-age",{"id":513,"slug":514,"title":515,"description":516,"primary_cover_url":517,"cover_blurhash":518,"first_publish_year":519,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":12,"page_count":520,"authors":521,"genres":526,"series":541,"enrichment":547},"01krtssb9dmfa9vdzknnry1q8q","a-tapestry-of-secrets-plxs","A Tapestry of Secrets","Perla Phillips, now in her eighties, has held a secret for sixty years.

Berry and Gross prioritize many voices: enslaved women, freedwomen, religious leaders, artists, queer women, activists, and women who lived outside the law.

A single fatal brawl sends events spiraling beyond anyone's control, and a desperate plan to keep them together sets in motion one of literature's most famous tragedies.\n\nWilliam Shakespeare's tragedy of \"star-crossed lovers\" remains the definitive story of young love thwarted by hatred, chance, and haste — a play whose language, characters, and heartbreak have shaped how the Western world imagines romance for more than four centuries.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjz6s5j7x45h1rw02tte2mvz.jpg","LdJHgSf6xtoe~VWCV@ay?aayRjfj",1949,"3.88",[781],{"id":782,"slug":783,"name":784},"01kjq7eyjb5ehy0zsfypwhbrqj","william-shakespeare-ys9o","William Shakespeare",[786,790,791,792,793,797,800,801],{"id":787,"name":788,"slug":789,"is_fiction":16},14,"Plays","plays",{"id":31,"name":32,"slug":33,"is_fiction":17},{"id":142,"name":143,"slug":144,"is_fiction":17},{"id":569,"name":570,"slug":571,"is_fiction":16},{"id":794,"name":795,"slug":796,"is_fiction":16},58,"Classics","classics",{"id":76,"name":798,"slug":799,"is_fiction":16},"Literary Fiction","literary-fiction",{"id":528,"name":529,"slug":530,"is_fiction":16},{"id":534,"name":535,"slug":536,"is_fiction":16},[],{"pace":246,"complexity":7,"audience":804,"mood":805,"themes":807,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},"young_adult",[806,149],"romantic",[808,622],"forbidden-love",{"id":810,"slug":811,"title":812,"description":813,"primary_cover_url":814,"cover_blurhash":815,"first_publish_year":816,"community_rating_avg":817,"community_rating_count":90,"page_count":818,"authors":819,"genres":824,"series":836,"enrichment":837},"01kjq7sa2nzt8x6wgmy2asmet0","crime-and-punishment-km6m","Crime and Punishment","Fyodor Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment (1866) is one of the towering achievements of Russian literature — a claustrophobic psychological drama set in the sweltering slums of St. Petersburg.\n\nRodion Raskolnikov, a destitute former student, has convinced himself that certain extraordinary men stand above conventional morality and are permitted to commit crimes in service of a greater good. To test the theory, he murders a rapacious old pawnbroker.

Operating in Chicago's notorious Levee district at the dawn of the last century, the Club's proprietors, two aristocratic sisters named Minna and Ada Everleigh, welcomed moguls and actors, senators and athletes, foreign dignitaries and literary icons, into their stately double mansion, where thirty stunning Everleigh \"butterflies\" awaited their arrival. Courtesans named Doll, Suzy Poon Tang, and Brick Top devoured raw meat to the delight of Prince Henry of Prussia and recited poetry for Theodore Dreiser. Whereas lesser madams pocketed most of a harlot's earnings and kept a \"whipper\" on staff to mete out discipline, the Everleighs made sure their girls dined on gourmet food, were examined by an honest physician, and even tutored in the literature of Balzac.Not everyone appreciated the sisters' attempts to elevate the industry. Rival Levee madams hatched numerous schemes to ruin the Everleighs, including an attempt to frame them for the death of department store heir Marshall Field, Jr. But the sisters' most daunting foes were the Progressive Era reformers, who sent the entire country into a frenzy with lurid tales of \"white slavery\"--the allegedly rampant practice of kidnapping young girls and forcing them into brothels. This furor shaped America's sexual culture and had repercussions all the way to the White House, including the formation of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.With a cast of characters that includes Jack Johnson, John Barrymore, John D. Rockefeller, Jr., William Howard Taft, \"Hinky Dink\" Kenna, and Al Capone, Sin in the Second City is Karen Abbott's colorful, nuanced portrait of the iconic Everleigh sisters, their world-famous Club, and the perennial clash between our nation's hedonistic impulses and Puritanical roots. Culminating in a dramatic last stand between brothel keepers and crusading reformers, Sin in the Second City offers a vivid snapshot of America's journey from Victorian-era propriety to twentieth-century modernity.Visit www.sininthesecondcity.com to learn more!Praise for Sin in the Second City:\"Assiduously researched...

The prevalence of witchcraft, especially in African politics and entrepreneurship, demonstrates the unlikely balance it has achieved with the forces of modernity.
