Healer's Touch
A Fae-touched healer who can’t access his magic—and whose death has been foretold. A child of the Fae with no magic of her own, kidnapped by mistake. Disillusioned by his life as a doctor in Victorian-era London, Ross McInerny plans a new start in the wilds of Colorado—but on the very eve of his departure, his future is predicted: death—by means of murder most foul. Elsie Brentwood longs for adventure and a life that’s truly her own, but when she is mistaken for her sister-in-law, she finds herself taken captive by an old family enemy who threatens everything she holds dear. Lost, injured, and chased by both a vengeful murderer and inexorable fate, Elsie and Ross must rely on their wits and each other to find their way home—alive.
Mason
The full story of the gifted but troubled R. A. K. Mason is told for the first time in this accessible biography. The puzzling reasons after his extraordinary beginning that Mason almost completely stopped writing poetry are investigated. The legendary story of how Mason dumped 200 copies of his first book, The Beggar, into Auckland harbor in disappointment, disgust, or despair because no one would buy it is explored as a symbol of a time--the 1920s and 1930s--when a true, vital, native literature struggled to be written or heard in a provincial and puritanical country. Also explored are how Mason's political beliefs prompted him to turn his creative energies to left-wing theater movements in the 1930s, the impact that family pressures had on his life, and his late-in-life diagnosis with manic depression.
