Arthur Gask's 'The Lonely House' is a captivating, suspenseful novel set in the early 20th century. The story follows the protagonist as he investigates a mysterious disappearance in an old, isolated manor, uncovering dark family secrets and twists along the way. Gask's writing style is characterized by its atmospheric descriptions and clever plot twists that keep readers on the edge of their seats. The novel is reminiscent of classic detective fiction, with a strong focus on suspense and intrigue that will appeal to fans of the genre. Gask's attention to detail and ability to craft a compelling mystery make 'The Lonely House' a standout in the world of classic crime fiction. Arthur Gask, a British author, drew inspiration from his background in medicine to create intricate and believable characters in his works. His experience in the medical field adds a unique layer of depth to his storytelling, making 'The Lonely House' a thrilling and immersive reading experience. I highly recommend 'The Lonely House' to anyone who enjoys a well-crafted mystery with a touch of gothic atmosphere and a compelling narrative that will keep you guessing until the very end.

The Dead Will Arise tells the story of Nongqawuse, the young Xhosa girl whose prophecy of the resurrection of the dead lured an entire people to death by starvation. The Great Cattle-Killing of 1856-57, which she initiated, is one of the most extraordinary and misunderstood events in South Africa's history. Jeff Peires was the first historian to draw on all available sources, from oral tradition and obscure Xhosa texts to the private letters and secret reports of police informers and colonial officials, and the original edition of The Dead Will Arise won the 1989 Alan Paton Sunday Times award for non-fiction.

A nun is found murdered on the steps of the Quality Couch, Sydney's most expensive house of ill repute. She is Sister Mary Magdalene, an idealistic young woman who previously had worked at a mission in Nicaragua. Detective Inspector Scobie Malone, that most human of cops, picks up the trail when he discovers that her real name was Teresa Hourigan-the illegitimate granddaughter of Fingal Hourigan, one of Australia's most powerful businessmen, who is currently entertaining some rich contras at his palatial home. The case leads Malone deep into Hourigan's murky past and threatens to expose the secret the old man has kept since 1929: the reason he hurriedly left Chicago in fear for his life. It also threatens to destroy his ambitions for his son, Archbishop Kerry Hourigan: to become the first-ever Australian pope. But Kerry's fanatical anticommunism has already led him to acts that will fatally endanger his standing in the Vatican.
