Chayse’s good intentions lead to bad, bad things… Chayse just wants everyone to be happy. Her first attempt to make that happen ends with a botched spell to bind true lovers and calls forth an unexpected visitor from Augusta’s past instead of Gemini’s former lover, as the girls had intended. It also weakens the membrane and brings forth a ghost Hunter and Meredith must hunt and exorcise. Someone in Crowder is harboring it, but whom? Now that her daughter knows about the necromancy magic in their line, Chayse invites Tilly to the inn, sure she can convince her grandmother Meredith isn’t crazy. Meredith knows there’s no changing her mother’s opinion, and when Tilly arrives with Dirk, she just might lose her mind for real this time. What possible reason could he have for coming to the inn and bringing his pregnant girlfriend? It can’t be good, for certain. At least the entity is still trapped far away, though he’s coming closer each day. Amidst all the unpleasant surprises, can something wonderful happen?

It brings them closer together and changes their relationship, but with the danger mounting, how can Meredith safely open the inn just yet? Add in a surprise visit from her daughter and other complications, and things are getting more mercurial than a menopausal mood swing.

From socialite to innkeeper to necromancer, Meredith undergoes a heck of a transformation. Divorcée Meredith Sullivan is starting over in rural Maine, leaving behind her glamorous NYC lifestyle and cheating husband. She's denied her necromancy magic all her life, but things are about to change. And she thought perimenopause was rough! The inn she inherits, dubbed Three Crones Inn by the locals, comes with three unexpected ghostly residents. Lottie was the first mistress of Three Crowns, but her cheating husband murdered her. Augusta came to the inn to write, and her spirit never left. Gemini was a '20s flapper on the wrong side of Prohibition. Together, they're enough to drive Meredith insane even as they help her find her way in this new adventure. Hunter, the sexy handyman, is a bonus and a complication she's not sure she's ready to face after ending her 20-year marriage, but if she wants to restore the inn to its former glory, she has to put on her big girl panties and deal with all the challenges coming her way. The mystery of what's happening in the lighthouse must be solved, and she has to keep living. Life's no longer about cocktail parties, but there are still plenty of spirits. This is the compilation of the completed series. It includes: Ghostly Inn-Heritance Vastly Inn-Proved Ghastly Inn-Tentions Grave Inn-Tervention

"In Ghostly Landscapes, Patricia M. Keller analyses the aesthetics of haunting and the relationship between ideology and image production by revisiting twentieth-century Spanish history through the camera's lens. Through its vision she demonstrates how the traumatic losses of the Spanish Civil War and their systematic denial and burial during the fascist dictatorship have constituted fertile territory for the expressions of loss, uncanny return, and untimeliness that characterize the aesthetic presence of the ghost. Examining fascist documentary newsreels, countercultural art films from the Spanish New Wave, and conceptual landscape photographs created since the transition to democracy, Keller reveals how haunting serves to mourn loss, redefine space and history, and confirm the significance of lives and stories previously hidden or erased. Her richly illustrated book constitutes a significant reevaluation of fascist and post-fascist Spanish visual culture and a unique theorization of haunting as an aesthetic register inextricably connected to the visual and the landscape."--Publisher's website.

In this exceptional book, Kucich reveals through his readings of literary and historical accounts that spiritualism helped shape the terms by which Native American, European, and African cultures interacted in America from the earliest days of contact through the present. Beginning his study with a provocative juxtaposition of the Pueblo Indian Revolt and the Salem Witchcraft trials of the seventeenth century, Kucich examin[e]s how both events forged "contact zones" - spaces of intense cultural conflict and negotiation - mediated by spiritualism. Kucich goes on to chronicle how a diverse group of writers used spiritualism to reshape a range of such contact zones. These include Rochester, New York, where Harriet Jacobs adapted the spirit rappings of the Fox Sisters and the abolitionist writings of Frederick Douglass as she crafted her own story of escape from slavery; mid-century periodicals from the Atlantic Monthly to the Cherokee Advocate to the Anglo-African Magazine; post-bellum representations of the afterlife by Elizabeth Stuart Phelps, Mark Twain and the Native Americans who developed the Ghost Dance; turn-of-the-century local color fiction by writers like Sarah Orne Jewett, Charles Chesnutt and Maria Cristina Mena; and the New England reformist circles traced in Henry James's The Bostonians and Pauline Hopkins's Of One Blood. Kucich's conclusion looks briefly at New Age spiritualism, then considers the implications of a cross-cultural scholarship that draws on a variety of critical methodologies, from border and ethnic studies to feminism to post-colonialism and the public sphere. The implications of this study, which brings well-known, canonical writers and lesser-known writers into conversation with one another, are broadly relevant to the resurgent interest in religious studies and American cultural studies in general.

In 1976, a small group of soldiers at Fort Dix were infected with a swine flu virus that was deemed similar to the virus responsible for the great 1918-19 world-wide flu pandemic. The U.S. government initiated an unprecedented effort to immunize every American against the disease. While a qualified success in terms of numbers reached-more than 40 million Americans received the vaccine-the disease never reappeared. The program was marked by controversy, delay, administrative troubles, legal complications, unforeseen side effects and a progressive loss of credibility for public health authorities. In the waning days of the flu season, the incoming Secretary of what was then the Department of Health, Education and Welfare, Joseph Califano, asked Richard Neustadt and Harvey Fineberg to examine what happened and to extract lessons to help cope with similar situations in the future.

Lady Hyegyong's memoirs, which recount the chilling murder of her husband by his father, form one of the best known and most popular classics of Korean literature. From 1795 until 1805 Lady Hyegyong composed this masterpiece, depicting a court life Shakespearean in its pathos, drama, and grandeur. Presented in its social, cultural, and historical contexts, this first complete English translation opens a door into a world teeming with conflicting passions, political intrigue, and the daily preoccupations of a deeply intelligent and articulate woman. JaHyun Kim Haboush's accurate, fluid translation captures the intimate and expressive voice of this consummate storyteller. Reissued nearly twenty years after its initial publication with a new foreword by Dorothy Ko, The Memoirs of Lady Hyegyong is a unique exploration of Korean selfhood and an extraordinary example of autobiography in the premodern era.
