Bøger af Sebastian Bendix

A collection of previously published individual Grave Markers that includes Hal Bodner's "Tolerance," Sebastian Bendix's "Shriek of the Harpy," and Russell Coy's "The One Who Lies Next to You." Tolerance: Children are disappearing from the streets of West Hollywood. The police are clueless, but Christopher Driscoll suspects he might know who is responsible. The trail leads to a local new hot spot that has become THE place to eat. Has the owner been serving up finger-licking good baby barbecue, or has there been a HUGE misunderstanding? Shriek of the Harpy: Movie theaters are a magical place, and the Downtown Nickelodeon is no exception, as junior film archivist Muriel Sharpe is about to find out. Tasked with the job of going through the old theater's archives before the building is demolished, Muriel doesn't hold out much hope of unearthing anything rare, but what she finds is a treasure trove out long-thought-lost films. Acting on instinct, and against her better judgement, she threads up the old movie projector and inadvertently awakens the magic of the old Nick. She's swept away in a passionate romance, dodges bullets with an infamous gangster, but nothing could prepare her for the horror the theater unleashes with Shriek of the Harpy, and soon she's in a fight for her very life as she tries to escape the one place she considered to be a safe haven. The One Who Lies Next to You: When Angie Berg suspects her husband is having an affair, it has an impact on every aspect of her life. Confiding in her boss, Angie learns Carol's husband had also been unfaithful, and it was the reason for their divorce. Carol wants to help Angie get to the truth, and she has the means to do so --- a handmade Amish quilt. Thinking her boss has gone off the deep end, Angie accepts the gift in the spirit in which it had been intended. Later that night, still plagued with doubts, Angie figures there's no harm in throwing the quilt on the bed. What does she have to lose? What she discovers is worse than she imagined, and now Angie finds herself in mortal peril as she tries to figure out what to do next.

18-year-old Bowie is the envy of his peers; the sharpest eye with a rifle, deadly as a viper in hand-to-hand combat, and set to marry the prettiest girl around. Papa Byrne, leader of the Fort Thunder militia, has high hopes for this rising star, sees him as the heir apparent to their Pacific Northwest island stronghold. That all changes when a plane crashes into the island. Its sole survivor is Alexis, an exotic young woman who looks nothing like the fair-skinned people back at the Fort. Bowie brings her back to the stronghold, throwing the fearful community into chaos. Even his parents worry about what this will mean... All fears are confirmed when an impromptu mission leaves a young cadet dead and Bowie wounded. Worse still, Bowie is being blamed for the death, framed by his former mentor and banished by a hung jury. The once favored son of Fort Thunder is about to have his eyes opened to the larger world - if he can live long enough to see it.
