Mrs. Morris and the vampire / by Wilton, Traci.;: It's B&B owner Charlene Morris's second Halloween in Salem, Massachusetts, and one she won't soon forget when a self-proclaimed vampire is murdered . . . Charlene's bed and breakfast is fully booked with guests wanting to experience Salem's wildest holiday--especially the annual Witch Ball, held at the historic Hawthorne Hotel. At the dance, actual witch and winery owner Brandy Flint has her back up over her daughter Serenity's new beau--it's bad enough he's a decade older, he also claims to be a vampire from Romania. As for Charlene, with handsome ghost Dr. Jack Strathmore haunting her B&B, she has developed an open mind regarding the supernatural. But her mind is blown when the clock strikes midnight, the lights flare and dim, and the vampire vanishes-leaving behind only his cape and a wooden stake with a thick red substance on the sharp tip. The next morning, a naked man washes up on the shore with a hole punched through his chest, and Detective Sam Holden has a homicide on his hands. Now Charlene and Jack must put their heads together to find out who staged the trick to stake a vampire . . .; Subjects: Detective and mystery fiction.; Ghost stories.; Haunted houses; Murder; Bed and breakfast accommodations; Vampires; Ghosts; Halloween;; Available copies: 1 / Total copies: 1; unAPI
Somewhere : stories of migration by women from around the world / by Clark, Helen,1950-writer of foreword.; Harvey, Lorna Jane,1977-editor.;: Somewhere is an inspiring collection of stories about migration. Written from twenty women's perspectives, it brings a refreshing and uniting voice to this compelling and trending topic. More people are likely to be migrating now than at any other time in history, and this is set to increase as climate change and political unrest pushes even more people to relocate. The implications of migration, especially for women, are often unknown, unheard, unspoken. From the fleeing refugee to the political and economic migrant, a broad range of migration by people of many cultures, ethnicities, and beliefs is shared in this book. Identity, belonging, assimilation and alienation are some of the key topics in this sometimes sad but also joyful book. Treasures of wisdom and heartfelt honesty are found in the stories. The book will give the reader hope, encouragement, or insight into a globally relevant subject on a personal level rather than through distant, abstract news stories. Somewhere encourages open-mindedness and is filled with stories that will likely have a strong impact on the reader.; Subjects: Women immigrants; Emigration and immigration.;; Available copies: 1 / Total copies: 1; unAPI
