A seat-swap is arranged, and the rest of the journey passes without incident. But Poirot has a bad feeling about it, and his fears are later confirmed when a body is discovered in the Devonports' home with a note that refers to 'the seat that you shouldn't have sat in'.

Having the drive, ambition and inspiration to start a new business takes a particular mindset - no wonder we regard successful entrepreneurs as modern-day magic-makers. But what if that spirit and drive were applied outside the world of business startups?

Brilliant Green The Surprising History and Science of Plant Intelligence by Stefano Mancuso
epub | 1.96 MB | English | Author :Stefano Mancuso, Alessandra Viola | 978-1610917315 | 2018 | Island Press
Book Description :
Are plants intelligent? Can they solve problems, communicate, and navigate their surroundings? Or are they passive, incapable of independent action or social behavior? Philosophers and scientists have pondered these questions since ancient Greece, most often concluding that plants are unthinking and inert: they are too silent, too sedentary -- just too different from us. Yet discoveries over the past fifty years have challenged these ideas, shedding new light on the extraordinary capabilities and complex interior lives of plants.
In Brilliant Green, Stefano Mancuso, a leading scientist and founder of the field of plant neurobiology, presents a new paradigm in our understanding of the vegetal world. Combining a historical perspective with the latest in plant science, Mancuso argues that, due to cultural prejudices and human arrogance, we continue to underestimate plants. In fact, they process information, sleep, remember, and signal to one another -- showing that, far from passive machines, plants are intelligent and aware. Through a survey of plant capabilities from sight and touch to communication, Mancuso challenges our notion of intelligence, presenting a vision of plant life that is more sophisticated than most imagine.
Plants have much to teach us, from network building to innovations in robotics and man-made materials -- but only if we understand more about how they live. Part botany lesson, part manifesto, Brilliant Green is an engaging and passionate examination of the inner workings of the plant kingdom.
Financial support for the translation of this book has been provided by SEPS: Segretariato Europeo Per Le Pubblicazioni Scientifiche.

In the Valley Stories and a Novella Based on Serena by Ron Rash
epub | 399.16 KB | English | Author :Ron Rash | 0385544294 | 2020 | Doubleday
Book Description :
*"Mesmerizing...He's one of the best living American writers."--Janet Maslin, * New York Times Book Review
From bestselling and award-winning writer Ron Rash ("One of the great American authors at work today."-- *The New York Times*) comes a collection of ten searing stories and the return of the villainess who propelled Serena *to national acclaim, in a long-awaited novella.*
Ron Rash has long been a revered presence in the landscape of American letters. A virtuosic novelist, poet, and story writer, he evokes the beauty and brutality of the land, the relentless tension between past and present, and the unquenchable human desire to be a little bit better than circumstances would seem to allow (to paraphrase Faulkner).
In these ten stories, Rash spins a haunting allegory of the times we live in--rampant capitalism, the severing of ties to the natural world in the relentless hunt for profit, the destruction of body and soul with pills meant to mute our pain--and yet within this world he illuminates acts of extraordinary decency and heroism. Two of the stories have already been singled out for accolades: "Baptism" was chosen by Roxane Gay for inclusion in The Best American Short Stories 2018 , and "Neighbors" was selected by Jonathan Lethem for The Best American Mystery Stories 2019. And in revisiting Serena Pemberton, Rash updates his bestselling parable of greed run amok as his deliciously vindictive heroine returns to the North Carolina wilderness she left scarred and desecrated to make one final effort to kill the child that threatens all she has accomplished.
"A gorgeous, brutal writer" (Richard Price) working at the height of his powers, Ron Rash has created another mesmerizing look at the imperfect world around us. **

How to Rule an Empire and Get Away with It by K J Parker

Book Description :
"Full of invention and ingenuity . . . Great fun." - SFX on *Sixteen Ways to Defend a Walled City*
This is the history of how the City was saved, by Notker the professional liar, written down because eventually the truth always seeps through.**
The City may be under siege, but everyone still has to make a living. Take Notker, the acclaimed playwright, actor, and impresario. Nobody works harder, even when he's not working. Thankfully, it turns out that people enjoy the theater just as much when there are big rocks falling out of the sky.
But Notker is a man of many talents, and all the world is, apparently, a stage. It seems that the empire needs him -- or someone who looks a lot like him -- for a role that will call for the performance of a lifetime. At least it will guarantee fame, fortune, and immortality. If it doesn't kill him first.
In the follow up to the acclaimed Sixteen Ways to Defend a Walled City , K. J. Parker has created one of fantasy's greatest heroes, and he might even get away with it.

Being a member of the Rugged Skulls MC, everything came easy to me. Money, reputation and women. Having a never ending flow of women throwing themselves at me was something I took great advantage of. Until her. Never did I imagine that I would be a man to lay claim to a woman after seeing her dance at a wedding.

Starting over in Fort Lauderdale was the best decision I could have made for my daughter and me. Just the two of us, starting a new life, a new journey, and making new memories. It was simple, and I had our whole lives planned out.Until I saw him. The biker who belonged on the cover of a magazine. A man with a devilish smile and sinful mouth that only added to his appeal.
In a world full of long days and solitary nights, he is a welcome change. I just hope he doesn't break my heart.

You've Got to be Kitten Me - Ki Brightly
epub | 288.43 KB | English | Author :Ki Brightly, Meg Bawden | Brightly Books
Book Description :
Brad Widstrom's human puppy left him. To keep his mind off his loneliness, he drills all his extra time into coaching his kickball team. After a game one night, he goes to a pet-play party. He doesn't expect to meet someone who makes his blood sizzle. The thing is, the man he wants isn't a puppy, he's a cat. Brad doesn't know the first thing about them. One thing is certain, though, and that's how much he wants Harley.
Harley Silvain is used to being ignored. Owners prefer the friendlier pet-dogs, not cats-and Harley is anything but sociable. There's something pleasing about having an owner take care of him, but he's not sure about this new man, Brad. Harley keeps waiting for Brad to decide he's too much work. He's sure he'll be replaced by a mutt.
When Brad's friend asks him to take in a pup who has been abused by his owner, Harley hates the idea. It's one step closer to Brad dropping him, and he's not willing to let a canine in the house. No matter how many times Brad reassures Harley he'd never leave him for a dog, Harley doesn't believe it. If they want to make this relationship work, Brad will need to help Harley past his insecurities, or it'll implode before it even begins.

Book Description :
Elena
It's forbidden.
He's a prisoner, and I'm his psychiatrist.
Intrigued by his darkness, I made a deal with him. All I have to do is call him 'Daddy', and he'll answer all of my questions.
I try to keep it professional, but my heart has plans of its own. His gaze leaves me panting. His touch has me seeing stars. And his dirty talk has me begging on my knees.
But there's always a ticking time bomb at the back of my mind, telling me that we're running out of time.
Alex
The feisty girl with the pretty blue eyes sees me.
She's the only one who sees me for the man I used to be. Back before everything I loved was snatched away from me.
I try to stay away, but her allure is too strong.
She makes me want to fight. For her. For a future where she would be all mine to cherish and protect.
But there's always a voice at the back of my mind that says that the only thing she needs to be protected from is...me.
