Download The Mystery of Ghostly Vera Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
The mysterious ghost of a young woman haunts the corridors of Virginia Intermont College. The only thing known for sure about the identity of the ghost is who she is not! One of the first things incoming VI freshmen hear is the tragic story of a young girl who died while a student there in the 1920s. Vera's scandalous love affair and suicide are described within these pages. While the author was researching known facts, there was a surprising development -- and he tells the rest of the story. No one knows for sure how many ghosts haunt the well-known Martha Washington Inn, but one regular visitor is a genteel, fiddle-playing shade from the past... The world-famous Barter Theater is haunted by the spirit of the man who founded it.... And a ghost (or two) could be lurking in a museum building that was once a tavern on The Wilderness Road. As noted in the Introduction by author Sharyn McCrumb, southwest Virginia abounds in legends and "the ghosts outnumber the people". You will meet some interesting members of this phantom citizenry in the two dozen tales that Price has included in this book of hauntings.

Download The Ghost of Frederic Chopin Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
An intricately plotted mystery and an engrossing story imbued with the foggy atmosphere of post-Communist Prague, the third book in the Walter Presents Library is a bewitching mystery about a woman who claims to transcribe music from the ghost of Chopin. Prague, 1995: Vera Foltynova, a widow in her late 50s, claims to receive visits from the ghost of great composer Frederic Chopin. What's more, she declares that Chopin has dictated dozens of compositions to her, to allow the world to hear the sublime music he was unable to create in his own short life. Many dismiss her story as a ridiculous hoax, while others swear that the music has the same beauty and refinement as the work of the dead master. Ludvik Slany, a secret police agent-turned-television journalist, is assigned to make a documentary debunking Vera's claims. He arrives in Prague ready to uncover a scam, but the more he subtly tries to trick her into giving herself away, the more he begins to think he may be witnessing a genuine miracle... The Ghost of Frederic Chopin is an engrossing story of music, faith and the ghosts of the past.

By 1903, the Morley Mansion was deemed haunted! The new owner hired Vera Van Slyke, an odd but brilliant ghost hunter. With her assistant, Lucille Parsell, Vera quickly realized that, to banish the ghost, the two would have to solve the murder.But a fugitive murderer wasn't the only shadow cast over the Morley Mansion.

Vera Van Slyke was a paradox. One the one hand, she was a muckraking journalist who crusaded against Spiritualist mediums, convinced they were all frauds. On the other, she was a ghost hunter who fully believed that spirits of the dead haunt the living. "Ghosts are like cats," Vera explained. "They're real, but they hardly come when called."Lucille Parsell was a Spiritualist medium who had been defrauded by Vera. Eager to abandon that life, she agreed to share her professional secrets with the journalist. This led to an interview, which led to a ghost hunt-which led to a deep friendship between the two women. When Lucille began to chronicle her ghostly investigations with Vera, she became a Watson to a very distinctive Holmes.With as many laughs as chills, those chronicles cover 1899 to 1909 and comprise Help for the Haunted: A Decade of Vera Van Slyke Ghostly Mysteries. Join Vera and Lida as they prowl through lonely mansions, bustling theaters, and underground train tunnels to unravel the mysteries of the Great Beyond . . . and beyond!

Winner of the 2021 Edgar Award – G.P. Putnam’s Sons Sue Grafton Memorial Award Finalist for the Lambda Literary Awards The “splendid genre-pushing” (People) Vera Kelly series returns in full force as our recently out-of-the-spy-game heroine finds herself traveling from Brooklyn to a sprawling countryside estate in the Caribbean in her first case as a private investigator. When ex-CIA agent Vera Kelly loses her job and her girlfriend in a single day, she reluctantly goes into business as a private detective. Heartbroken and cash-strapped, she takes a case that dredges up dark memories and attracts dangerous characters from across the Cold War landscape. Before it’s over, she’ll chase a lost child through foster care and follow a trail of Dominican exiles to the Caribbean. Forever looking over her shoulder, she nearly misses what’s right in front of her: her own desire for home, connection, and a new romance at the local bar. In this exciting second installment of the Vera Kelly series, Rosalie Knecht challenges and deepens the Vera we love: a woman of sparkling wit, deep moral fiber, and martini-dry humor who knows how to follow a case even as she struggles to follow her heart.
