His widow, Louise, and their delicate young son, Charles-Léon, are told that the boy needs country air, but the travel permits required to leave Paris are impossible to obtain. Louise's devoted friend Josette Gravier is convinced that her hero, the Scarlet Pimpernel, will come to their aid—refusing to believe he exists only in her imagination—and sets out into the streets of Paris to make contact with him.—Wikipedia

Project: Faded Page | 2026-06-24 | Formats: EPUB, MOBI, PDF, TEXT, HTML

The story of the eternal struggle between a woman's secret desire for glamour and tinsel and sheer romance and her belated appreciation of the stability of the domestic scene. Sue is precipitated into marriage with a man she does not love by her brother's marriage to a gold-digger. Between them, the two women launch a game of puss-in-the-corner, but a business crash brings Sue's better nature to the fore, and she stays by the matrimonial bark, only to be rewarded by discovering that it is thoroughly seaworthy. Fair-to-middling light love fiction for summer hammock reading and rental libraries.—Kirkus Reviews.

The Haunting of Hill House (1960) by Jackson, Shirley

Project: Faded Page | 2018-08 (update) | Formats: TEXT, HTML, EPUB, MOBI, PDF

Dr. Montague, a scientific investigator of ghostly phenomena, has chosen to live for several weeks at Hill House, by repute a place of horror that will brook no human habitation. To check and contribute to his observations, he selects three companions previously unknown to him; two girls, Theo and Eleanor, and Luke, a young man, who is heir to Hill House. What happens cannot, in fairness, be told. But Dr Montague’s words were prophetic: ‘A ghost cannot hurt anyone; only the fear of ghosts can be dangerous.’ Whether the ghosts at Hill House caused the fear, or the fear created the ghosts, there were such manifestations as to produce, finally, an ultimate terror that was all too palpable and down-to-earth.—Preface. Considered one of the greatest horror novels of the 20th century, The Haunting of Hill House has been made into two feature films, The Haunting, in 1963 and 1999, and a TV series.

The protagonist is Conn the Thrall, who fights alongside Turlogh Dubh O'Brien, an outcast from Brian Boru's clan.—Wikipedia
