Synopsis Burglars in Paradise (Classic Reprint) by : Elizabeth Stuart Phelps
Excerpt from Burglars in Paradise Some time ago, I had the pleasure of re cording the experience oi a single and singu lar lady, who built a house and lived in it. To any reader by chance acquainted with those records no introductory words will now be needed To such as are unfamiliar with the annals of The Old Maid's Paradise it may be necessary to say that they concerned the fortunes of a family of two, - mistress and maid. I mistake; it was a family of three, mistress, maid, and dog. They were known to the public respectively as Corona.

Synopsis The Burglar Who Moved Paradise (Classic Reprint) by : Herbert D. Ward
Excerpt from The Burglar Who Moved Paradise The following narrative, it is needless to say, is entirely from the man's point of view. It may be the fact that the woman sees only the heraldic colors, and the man the marshaling of arms upon the shield. However that may be, it is well to have the family coat-of-arms presented from every point of view. Again, from a feminine standpoint it is to be expected that the Sub-hero should be of the masculine de nomination. But a man is not to be eter nally snubbed, even if he is only a lay figure in a story. And so, by the privilege of being the last writer on the subject, I have seen to it that the despised -sub has arisen past all intermediate stages until he plays the principal part to the heroine in this little drama of life.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Synopsis Criminal Paradise by : Steven M. Thomas
The literature of larceny welcomes a newcomer with some serious chops, as Steven M. Thomas muscles his way to a place at the table–elbow-to-elbow with Elmore Leonard and Carl Hiaasen–courtesy of a harrowing, hilarious, two-fisted, hard-boiled thriller that’s pure heaven for anyone who loves a hell of a crime novel. Robert Rivers is a crook. No excuses, no apologies. Breaking the law is his calling, crime is his rush, capers his reason for getting up in the morning and staying up late at night. But he’s a thief with honor, plotting and pulling off carefully choreographed heists where no shots are fired, no blood is spilled, and nobody gets hurt . . . except in the wallet. After a brief stint behind bars back in the day, he’s managed to carve out a comfortable existence, cheerfully plundering the sunny Southern California community whose streets he tools in the tweaked-out Cadillac DeVille that’s his pride and joy. But now Rob (whose name has become ironic) is pushing forty, and–like his trusty partner, Switch, who’s got a pregnant girlfriend and a hefty stash of loot–he’s thinking about quitting the game. But then he and Switch, pulling their latest Butch and Sundance, score a payday that could end up costing them plenty. Inside a strongbox packed with greenbacks rests a disturbing black-and-white photo of a beautiful young girl, eyes full of fear as naked as she is. It’s an image that Rob can’t shake, and a wake-up call: There are rules even he won’t break. It’s also his one-way ticket into the underbelly of the underworld–a lethal landscape of sex slaves, sadistic psychopaths, and sawed-off shotguns, where honor is for fools, and trust is for suckers, where very bad people do even worse things and nice guys don’t finish at all. They just get finished off. With its alluring setting, quirky characters, and restrained and subtle prose, Criminal Paradise has something for every thriller fan. And with sharp natural instincts and writing skills as serious as his humor is sly, Steven M. Thomas shows as much promise as any author on the suspense scene.

Synopsis Paradise (Classic Reprint) by : Alice Brown
Excerpt from Paradise Malory Dwight had taken the five-mile drive from his farm to the village, and hitched his horse in front of the house where Ann Parsons, the old nurse, had a second-floor tenement. The door was locked, the curtains, all over the house, were down. He drew a breath of despair, for he needed Ann greatly. As he stood on the narrow side walk, debating, a man hailed him from the other side of the street. "Guess she's gone to the hall, Malory. There's doin's there." "Much obliged." Malory untied his horse and stepped into the wagon again, and as the voice continued, "How's your sister?" he replied briefly, "Worse," and drove on through the one street whose modest signboards proclaimed the life of trade. He drew up in front of the little yellow hall where the "doings" predicted were already apparent. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
