I didn’t realise that Sue was taking over me. What I thought was a friendly hand, was the grip of the devil trying to control me. She was dominating and suffocating. When I became aware of it, I wanted to get out of her grasp, but she wouldn’t let me go. I was eight months pregnant; my husband was away on business when Sue and her friend came tovisit. As we were drinking juice, I was suddenly struck with an unbearable pain – my contractions had started. I lost all my strength and could not see properly, it was as if I were floating in the darkness, until a needle-like pain pierced my arm. I begged them to call an ambulance, but they did not take any notice of me. I heard the baby’s cry, “my baby! give me my baby!” I pleaded. I lost consciousness and when I woke, I was told it was a stillbirth. I did not believe it; I know what I heard. Sue stole my baby.

Reading innumerable treatises on demonology written during the Renaissance, including Thesaurus exorcismorum, the most important record of early modern exorcisms, Maggi finds repeated attempts to define the language exchanged between the fallen progeny of Adam, and the most notorious fallen angel of them all, Satan. Using points of departure taken from de Certeau and Lacan, Maggi shows that Satan articulates his language first and foremost in the mind. More than speaking, the devil tries to make human beings understand his language and speak it themselves.

This year the Devil had not anticipated coming to London for Christmas, at all. He was scheduled to be elsewhere. The far east to be more precise. But for some inexplicable reason his particular set of senses told him that he was needed there. So here he was. And a good job too if his current charge was anything to go by. Perched precariously atop Tower Bridge he was doing his utmost to talk down a man who seemed intent on throwing himself head long into the icy waters of the river Thames below. But what had driven the man to such extremes? And, more to the point, how was it that he seemed to know who he was? The plot thickens as the Devil becomes embroiled in a plot to try and prevent Hell itself coming to Earth.

Charming, romantic, and painted with gorgeous Regency detail, Karla Hocker’s romances will delight readers from the very first page. “Devil” Mackenzie, the Marquis of Ellsworth, has no concerns about propriety when he assumes the lease of his late great-aunt's half of the family town house for his lady. But that half of the house had been bequeathed to Nell Hetherington, whom Dev remembers as a hoydenish brat from his soldiering days in the Peninsula. Only Nell isn't a brat any longer—she's an attractive, fiercely independent young lady who summarily evicts Dev's ladybird and opens a school for "Young Brides of His Majesty's Officers" in her half of the house. The bold young miss even has plans to take over his half as well! "Devil" Mackenzie is appalled. Such outrageous schemes! Such lack of propriety! What can he do but protect Nell from her own folly? And what better way than take her part of the house, by hook or by crook...or even in a game of cards.
