Now in her thirties, she reluctantly returns to care for her cranky, injured uncle. Needing income, she freelances for one island newspaper (the one Uncle Hank likes).

Hardback. Condición: Very Good. From critically acclaimed author Nicole Galland comes a vibrant and thought-provoking historical fiction tale of love, political intrigue, and gender-swapping set in the theatre world of Elizabethan London.Alexander ?Sander? Cooke is the most celebrated ?boy player? in the Chamberlain?s Men, William Shakespeare?s theatre company. Indeed, Sander?s androgynous beauty and deft portrayal of female roles have made him the toast of London, and his companionship is sought by noblewomen and -men alike. And yet, now at the height of his fame, he teeters on the cusp of adulthood, his future uncertain. Often, he wishes he could stop time and remain a boy forever.Joan Buckler, Sander?s best friend, also has a dream. Though unschooled, she is whip-smart and fascinated by the snippets of natural philosophy to which she?s been exposed. And while she senses that Sander?s admiration for her is more than mere friendship, Joan?s true passion is knowledge, something that is nearly impossible for her to attain. As a woman, she has no place in the intellectual salons and cultural community of the day; only in disguise can she learn to her heart?s content.Joan?s covert intellectual endeavors, coupled with Sander?s theatrical triumphs, attract the attention of none other than Francis Bacon: natural philosopher and trusted adviser to Queen Elizabeth. It is through their connection with Bacon?one of the greatest minds of their time?that their lives will be changed forever as they become embroiled in this Shakespearean drama of political intrigue that threatens their very survival.Brimming with heart, curiosity, and rich historical detail, this compelling work of Elizabethan historical fiction, Boy, offers an intimate glimpse of the moral complexities of a singular artistic era, and the roles we all choose to play on the world?s stage. …

Hardback. Condición: Good. No more counting carbs, calories, or fat grams This revolutionary diet plan works with your hormones to curb your appetite, boost your metabolism, and take the pounds off for good Cutting-edge research shows that losing weight is not about carbs, calories, or even willpower--it's about a hormone called leptin, and how it functions in your body. Leptin is your body's natural weight-loss mechanism: it curbs your appetite, jump-starts your metabolism, and when working properly makes you literally fat resistant--you will lose weight effortlessly and efficiently and never gain those pounds back. If you're struggling to lose weight, chances are you are leptin resistant--your body no longer responds to leptin, making it impossible for you to slim down. The Fat Resistance Diet is the first and only eating plan designed specifically to combat leptin resistance and reprogram your body to start melting away the pounds. Using a breakthrough combination of anti-inflammatory and hormone-balancing foods, the three-phase regimen delivers: A loss of six to ten pounds in the first two weeks.A loss of at least two pounds a week thereafter. Fun, flavorful meals that make sticking with the plan a breeze.An easy maintenance program that keeps you fat resistant for life. With over 100 delicious recipes designed for maximum satisfaction and eating pleasure, the Fat Resistance Diet is the only diet you'll ever need--a brand new way to eat that will transform your body into a lean, fat-fighting machine.…

Paperback. Condición: Good. In Venice, 1202, tens of thousands of crusaders set sail for Jerusalem to liberate the great city from Muslim rule. Among them is a British vagabond grudgingly taken under the wing of a pious knight who believes that the mission is truly blessed by God. Before leaving, the vagabond rescues a woman pretending to be an Arab princess, hoping that under the protection of his benefactor knight, he can smuggle the young woman back to the Holy Land. However, this 'holy' campaign sinks into tragic moral turpitude - first in an attack on the Adriatic port city of Zara, and ultimately in the fall of the seat of the Byzantine Empire, Constantinople. …
