Amanda Quick is the pseudonym of Jayne Ann Krentz and in this tantalising novel of an enterprising woman who allies herself with a mysterious spy, where from the moment he burst into her antiquities shop in Rome, Lavinia Lake knew the stranger was nothing but trouble and he claimed he was in pursuit of a killer and swore he was only trying to save her. Yet no matter what he claimed, Lavinia was convinced he was bent instead on destroying her and when the self-described spy hustled her and her niece out of the shop and to England, Lavinia hoped that she would find a way to pay him back in full, not imagining the shocking circumstances under which they would meet again.

Description:
London: James and James, 1990. A Fine unmarked copy (apart from a small inscription written on the small erratum slip) with Fine dustjacket which is not price clipped. 172 pages on glossy paper with 14 colour plates. The founder of Charterhouse was a successful entrepreneur who had flourished in the open and competitive society of Tudor England. Such robustness has characterised the school from its birth in 1611 - the year Thomas Sutton established a foundation for 40 scholars and 80 brethren - and its emergence as one of Britain's leading public schools. This account of the growth, the achievements, and the vicissitudes, of Charterhouse draws on thorough research. D4F. First. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

Description:
Newton Abbot: David and Charles, 2002. A Fine unmarked copy with Fine dustjacket. A magnificent history of the men and women who carried out the smuggling trade, who were universally admired and everyone from poorest farmworker to wealthy landowner were involved in the trade or at least turned a blind eye. Although the days of the romantic smugglers ended during the middle 19th century, the memory of their deeds and misdeeds lives on in a thousand local legends and tales of battles and extraordinary escapades. All around the coast of Britain pubs, inns and remote houses were fitted out with elaborate hiding places, many of which survive. Most beautifully illustrated with colour and black and white plates. **** A LARGE HEAVY VOLUME OF 0.85 KILO UNPACKED WEIGHT WHICH MAY REQUIRE ADDITIONAL SHIPPING COST **** A1F. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall.
