Rin, guerriera e sciamana, non può dimenticare le atrocità che ha dovuto commettere per salvare il suo popolo. Solo un desiderio la spinge a vivere: non vuole morire prima di essersi vendicata dell'Imperatrice, che ha tradito la sua patria vendendola ai nemici.

When an elderly man bursts into flame at an assisted living center on Christmas Eve—and is consumed in under a minute—no one can explain what started the fire, much less whether it was an accident...or murder. There was nothing combustible in the room with him, nor anything that might have caused a spark.

If not for the unusual nature of his death, the police would have no reason to investigate.

One word could kill them all. That's what I was warned about after the first accident when I killed my family's allies. My powers manifested too young. Powers I never asked for.

From the classroom to mainstream media, Christians regularly find their fundamental beliefs discounted by opponents who consider faith to be incompatible with reason. Faith is viewed as subjective, emotional, and a crutch for those who find the real world too hard. The late R. C. Sproul, however, claims faith reveals just how rational Christianity truly is.

The Story of a Disappearance and an Appearance is M. R. James at his most disquieting: where festive streets darken quickly, dreams twist into warnings, and something grotesque walks just beyond the edge of understanding.
