Readers Digest Pride and the Peacock Victoria Holt/Storm Warning Jack Higgins 1977/R53a1/HC
THE PRIDE AND THE PEACOCK: A novel of mystery, romance and suspense. When Jessica Clavering's father gambled away Oakland Hall, the family seemed doomed to a dreary, pinchpenny existence. But Jessica refuses to accept her lot. Her rough-hewn friend, Ben Henniker, suggests marriage to his handsome illegitimate son and Jessica decides to take the gamble of wedding a virtual stranger. Transported to the wilds of Australia, Jessica begins to fear Joss Madden, her proud and willful husband. What is his obsession with the Green Flash at sunset, a magnificent opal men would kill to possess? Soon Jessica finds that the adventure she craved is turning into a terrifying nightmare. With this superb tale of romantic suspense, Victoria Holt surpasses even her popular Lord of the Far Island.
STORM WARNING BY JACK HIGGINS - From the journal of Rear Admiral Carey Reeve, U.S.N "... and this I find the greatest mystery of all - the instinct in man to sacrifice himself that others might live. But then, courage never goes out of fashion, and at no other time in my life have I seen it better displayed than in the affair of the Deutschland. In the midst of the greatest war history has known, people on opposite sides in that conflict were able to come together for a time, take every risk, lay themselves on the line, in an attempt to save a handful of human beings from man's oldest and most implacable foe - the sea. I have never seen the tragic futility of war better demonstrated nor felt prouder of my fellowmen than at that time ..."
