Excerpt from Living or Dead a Novel, Vol. 2 of 3 Running short, but we had not much further to go, so, the morning being fine, we decided to walk that day, or part of the day. If we changed our minds we trusted to getting a vehicle of some sort from a farmhouse or village on the road. We were now almost on the borders of Derbyshire. The road was good, and the country round about smiling. Harvesting was in full swing, and every one we met looked merry, con tented, and busy. Valentine was in the highest spirits. He trolled out snatches of songs as we walked, regardless of the passers-by or the reapers at work across the hedge, who paused in astonishment and admiration as his gay voice carried the liveliest numbers of the liveliest operas to their untutored ears. We strode along at some three and a half miles an hour, stop pages excluded, for Valentine was always stopping, now to gather a flower, now to.

The CWA Gold Dagger Award-winning British espionage novel about disgraced MI5 agents who inadvertently uncover a deadly Cold War-era legacy of sleeper cells and mythic super spies. The disgruntled agents of Slough House, the MI5 branch where washed-up spies are sent to finish their failed careers on desk duty, are called into action to protect a visiting Russian oligarch whom MI5 hopes to recruit to British intelligence. While two agents are dispatched on that babysitting job, though, an old Cold War-era spy named Dickie Bow is found dead, ostensibly of a heart attack, on a bus outside of Oxford, far from his usual haunts. But the head of Slough House, the irascible Jackson Lamb, is convinced Dickie Bow was murdered. As the agents dig into their fallen comrade's circumstances, they uncover a shadowy tangle of ancient Cold War secrets that seem to lead back to a man named Alexander Popov, who is either a Soviet bogeyman or the most dangerous man in the world. How many more people will have to die to keep those secrets buried?

Excerpt from Dual Lives, Vol. 2 of 3 It was brutally harsh and cruel, and I thanked God for that - there was no pretence of softness about it. It was a demand for money - a very large sum of money - as well as shelter and maintenance for a fixed period, with the alternative threat of disclosing everything to you. Darling, eelieve me most likely when you read these words I shall have ceased to heed praise or blame the sole motive, that holds me on this fearful course, is the wish to save you from suffering while I may. I was going to say, I would; but that is a needless assertion, and you will know and remember, in looking back into this past time, that I do - oh, merciful God!

Our most modern monster and perhaps our most American, the zombie that is so prevalent in popular culture today has its roots in African soul capture mythologies. The Transatlantic Zombie provides a more complete history of the zombie than has ever been told, explaining how the myth’s migration to the New World was facilitated by the transatlantic slave trade, and reveals the real-world import of storytelling, reminding us of the power of myths and mythmaking, and the high stakes of appropriation and homage. Beginning with an account of a probable ancestor of the zombie found in the Kongolese and Angolan regions of seventeenth-century Africa and ending with a description of the way, in contemporary culture, new media are used to facilitate zombie-themed events, Sarah Juliet Lauro plots the zombie’s cultural significance through Caribbean literature, Haitian folklore, and American literature, film, and the visual arts. The zombie entered US consciousness through the American occupation of Haiti, the site of an eighteenth-century slave rebellion that became a war for independence, thus making the figuration of living death inseparable from its resonances with both slavery and rebellion. Lauro bridges African mythology and US mainstream culture by articulating the ethical complications of the zombie as a cultural conquest that was rebranded for the American cinema. As The Transatlantic Zombie shows, the zombie is not merely a bogeyman representing the ills of modern society, but a battleground over which a cultural war has been fought between the imperial urge to absorb exotic, threatening elements, and the originary, Afro-diasporic culture’s preservation through a strategy of mythic combat.
