In reality, Paul has silenced her forever, but her vengeful spirit remains, haunting the Wyndham estate. Generations later, Sasha Berry Wyndham, a modern-day descendant, is stunned to receive a letter from a lawyer, informing her of her inheritance: Rose Falls, a grand estate in southern Mississippi. Eager to explore her newfound legacy, Sasha visits the property with her boyfriend, Adam. The enchanting beauty of Rose Falls quickly captivates her, but Adam senses something amiss. As renovations begin, the haunting presence of Helene’s ghost grows stronger, revealing the dark history of the Wyndhams. The tension escalates towards a grand opening event—a lavish ball at Rose Falls. But as the night approaches, one question looms: Will the guests be the living or the dead?

The final book of the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today bestselling Rose Gardner Investigations series. When a body shows up south of Henryetta, Rose knows trouble is on the horizon.

Now everyone is looking for Wilson’s girlfriend, including Rose, and it doesn’t take her long to realize Wilson’s murder might actually be connected to something else, something bigger. Hardshaw Group, a Dallas crime syndicate, is meeting a South American drug cartel in the county, only no one knows the time and place. Denny Carmichael’s drug empire has a lot to lose if they move in, so now he’s calling in the favor he insists Rose owes him—find him the time and location. Or else. Rose is a hair’s breadth away from losing everyone she loves, including her six-week-old daughter, and she’ll do anything she can to save them.

This revised and updated guidebook profiles more than 100 waterfalls in the states of Virginia and West Virginia, all scouted first-hand by expert local photographer Randall Sanger.

The world is populated with many different objects, to which we often attribute properties: we say, for example, that grass is green, that the earth is spherical, that humans are animals, and that murder is wrong. We also take it that these properties are things in their own right: there is something in which being green, or spherical, or an animal, or wrong, consists, and that certain scientific or normative projects are engaged in uncovering the essences of such properties. In light of this, an important question arises: what kind of things should we take properties themselves to be? In Properties, Douglas Edwards gives an engaging, accessible, and up-to-date introduction to the many theories of properties available. Edwards charts the central positions in the debate over properties, including the views that properties are universals, that properties are constructed from tropes, and that properties are classes of objects, and assesses the benefits and disadvantages of each. Attempts to deny the existence of properties are also considered, along with ‘pluralist’ proposals, which aim to accommodate the different kinds of properties that are found in various philosophical debates. Properties is the ideal introduction to this topic and will be an invaluable resource for scholars and students wishing to learn more about the important roles that properties have played, and continue to play, in contemporary philosophy.
