On holiday with friends, the Hardy boys check out the local haunted house. Deterred by screams and the dilapidated house, the group turn towards home. However, a nearly-fatal motor boat chase in the nearby bay causes the Hardy boys to wonder: is the house really haunted, or is there foul play afoot? This is the second book of the Hardy boys series, first published in 1927. It was rewritten in 1959; this Standard Ebook contains the original 1927 text. This book is part of the Standard Ebooks project, which produces free public domain ebooks.

Perched on the South Devon coast, its garden has begun slowly toppling into the sea, yet the elderly and infamously stubborn owner Stella refuses to leave her home. When Holly, a young journalist and single mum struggling to make ends meet, decides to interview Stella about her life, at first she's given short shrift. However, helped by a slice or two of cake and a couple of friendly cats, a tentative friendship begins to develop between the two lonely women. Stella and Holly may live different lives, but over the cold winter nights, as Stella shares her story, the two women discover more and more in common. Time is running out for the house on the edge, but perhaps, together, Stella and Holly can find a new way forward.

Excavations at Cliffs End Farm, Thanet, Kent, undertaken in 2004/5 uncovered a dense area of archaeological remains including Bronze Age barrows and enclosures, and a large prehistoric mortuary feature, as well as a small early 6th to late 7th century Anglo-Saxon inhumation cemetery. An extraordinary series of human and animal remains were recovered from the Late Bronze Age–Middle Iron Age mortuary feature, revealing a wealth of evidence for mortuary rites including exposure, excarnation and curation. The site seems to have been largely abandoned in the later Iron Age and very little Romano-British activity was identified. In the early 6th century a small inhumation cemetery was established. Very little human bone survived within the 21 graves, where the burial environment differed from that within the prehistoric mortuary feature, but grave goods indicate ‘females’ and ‘males’ were buried here. Richly furnished graves included that of a ‘female’ buried with a necklace, a pair of brooches and a purse, as well as a ‘male’ with a shield covering his face, a knife and spearhead. In the Middle Saxon period lines of pits, possibly delineating boundaries, were dug, some of which contained large deposits of marine shells. English Heritage funded an extensive programme of radiocarbon and isotope analyses, which have produced some surprising results that shed new light on long distance contacts, mobility and mortuary rites during later prehistory. This volume presents the results of the investigations together with the scientific analyses, human bone, artefact and environmental reports.

The Complete Works of Arnold Bennett showcases the prolific and diverse writing of the renowned author. Known for his realistic portrayals of British industrial society in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Bennett's work often delves into the themes of class dynamics, ambition, and personal growth. His writing style combines keen observations with a straightforward narrative approach, making his novels both accessible and thought-provoking. Readers can expect a rich literary experience that captures the essence of the changing social landscape of the time. Arnold Bennett's own life experiences, growing up in the Potteries region of Staffordshire, England, greatly influenced his writing. His firsthand knowledge of the working-class struggles and aspirations permeates his work, adding depth and authenticity to his characters and their dilemmas. Bennett's ability to depict the human condition with empathy and insight sets his work apart in the literary canon. I highly recommend The Complete Works of Arnold Bennett to readers interested in exploring the complexities of British society during the Industrial Revolution. Bennett's timeless themes and engaging storytelling continue to resonate with contemporary audiences, offering valuable insights into the universal struggles of the human experience.
