亲密的姐妹
凯瑟琳死了。她被谋杀在一家饭店里,不见了孩子。这简直令人难以置信,但是,当我看见丈夫高顿悲伤的眼神时,全身立刻瘫软下来。妈妈的到达,使我一直坚持这只是场噩梦的祈祷最终也被击得粉碎。我扑到妈妈怀中,同妈妈一起悲痛地号哭起来。我想喊叫,想砸东西。这么可怕的事情怎么会发生在妹妹身上?凯瑟琳善良、诚实,总是十分乐意地帮助那些不大幸运的人。她曾做过一家公司的律师,后来又由于爱心去做了一名普普通通的社工。Fly By Night
Everybody knew that books were dangerous. Read the wrong book, it was said, and the words crawled around your brain on black legs and drove you mad, wicked mad. Mosca Mye was born at a time sacred to Goodman Palpitattle, He Who Keeps Flies out of Jams and Butterchurns, which is why her father insisted on naming her after the housefly. He also insisted on teaching her to read—even in a world where books are dangerous, regulated things. Eight years later, Quillam Mye died, leaving behind an orphaned daughter with an inauspicious name and an all-consuming hunger for words. Trapped for years in the care of her cruel Uncle Westerly and Aunt Briony, Mosca leaps at the opportunity for escape, though it comes in the form of sneaky swindler Eponymous Clent. As she travels the land with Clent and her pet goose, Saracen, Mosca begins to discover complicated truths about the world she inhabits and the power of words.
