![]() ![]() –MOĭaniel Silva, Portrait of an Unknown WomanĮvery Daniel Silva has their own particular taste when it comes to the flavor of a new Gabriel Allon adventure, but certainly there’s some broad agreement that Allon is at his most fascinating when he’s playing to his skills as an art restorer, in addition to his career at Mossad. Paris Peralta is found at the center of a shocking crime scene, but she’s not afraid of the police: she’s afraid of the woman from her past who will recognize the crime and come calling. I’ve been obsessed with Jennifer Hillier’s sly psychological thrillers since her breakout hit Jar of Hearts, and Things We Do In the Dark promises to showcase her characters’ signature slippery grasp on morality once again.

If designed well, the website will meet that goal and align it with the goals of the organization behind the website. The ISO 9241 standard defines website usability as the “effectiveness, efficiency and satisfaction with which specified users achieve specified goals in particular environments.” When using a website, users have a particular goal. Indeed, in doing so, you would be addressing (in an unstructured way) only one third of what constitutes form usability. ![]() ![]() These guidelines have been crafted from usability testing, field testing, website tracking, eye tracking, Web analytics and actual complaints made to customer support personnel by disgruntled users.Ĭontrary to what you may read, peppering your form with nice buttons, color and typography and plenty of jQuery plugins will not make it usable.

It did not appear again in England until the Falcon Press edition of 1949. A subsequent appeal (which did not involve analysis of the text as the Director of Public Prosecutions refused to release copies) upheld the decision following a deliberation of only five minutes. A campaign lead by James Douglas, editor of the 'Sunday Express' (who wrote "I would rather give a healthy boy or a healthy girl a phial of prussic acid than this novel") resulted in an obscenity trial in November 1929 which lasted for eight days, the judge ultimately ordering the book destroyed. A magnificently preserved copy of the author's celebrated lesbian novel, for decades the best known novel of its type in English. Very good indeed in non-price-clipped dust wrapper, very lightly toned at the spine panel with several tiny slivers of loss from the upper edge and two short internally repaired tears. A strip of light toning and spotting to the front free endpaper. Publisher's black top edge stain, the fore edge untrimmed. Black cloth lettered in gold at the spine. First edition, second issue (with one minor typographical correction to page 50, changing 'Whip' to 'Whips'). ![]() ![]() ![]() Some whisper that she is a wise woman who uses dark arts and magic as her mother and grandmother before her but Alinor denies that she has any extraordinary powers especially in these times of the new Church where you can be sent to the stakes if called a witch.

Set at a very crucial time in English history where monarchy and parliament fight for supremacy, Alinor is a poor woman who is without a husband and is left with two children not because she is widowed or divorced but because her husband has been missing for over a year. In her usual style, the author has crafted another captivating and provocative tale that ends with a beginning as this is the first book in this series. ![]() This time she has come out with a new series starting with ‘Tidelands’ as the first book and I am excited to go on this new journey with her.Īs usual, this turned out to be an excellent read.
