Keeping hold of your leprechaun when you have caught it. - Female leprechauns

The Sacred Art of Stealing by Christopher Brookmyre 0658.00 125*195mm 410页 |
|
|
|
|
内容简介： |
Their
eyes met across a crowded room. She was just a poor servant girl and he was
the son of a rich industrialist. Er, no, this is a
Christopher Brookmyre novel, although the eyes
meeting across a crowded room part is true. Where it differs from the fairy tales
is that the room in question was crowded with hostages and armed
bank-robbers, and his eyes were the only part of him she could see behind the
mask. He is an art-thief par excellence and she is a connoisseur of crooks.
Her job is to hunt him to extinction; his is to avoid being caught and he
also has a secret agenda more valuable than anything he might steal. There
are risks he can take without jeopardising his
plans. He can afford to play cat-and-mouse with the female cop who's on his
tail; it might even arguably be necessary. What he can't afford is to let her
get too close: he could could end up in jail or,
even more scary, he could end up in love . |

The Time Traveler’s wife by Audrey Niffenegger 0290.12 165*230mm 518页 |
|
|
|
|
内容简介： |
A
spellbinding love story about a man caught by the whims of time and the woman
who must wait for his return. This
is the story of Clare, a beautiful art student, and Henry, an adventuresome
librarian, who have known each other since Clare was six and Henry was
thirty-six, and were married when Clare was twenty-three and Henry
thirty-one. Impossible but true, because Henry finds himself periodically
displaced in time, pulled to moments of emotional gravity from his life, past
and future. His disappearances are spontaneous, his experiences amusing,
unpredictable, and devastating. The
Time Traveler’s Wife is a story about fate, hope and belief, and more than
that, it’s about the power of love to endure beyond the bounds of time. 本书在Amazon网站获五星评论 |
