Ghosts of the Ozarks by Bruce Carlson, 161 pages

 So, Lilly Woods was not to meet her neighbors, .........at least not in this world. And, what of Carl Williams? Does he, yet today, journey through time to lose his life yet again and again 'neath the thundering hooves of that herd of cattle south of Eureka Springs? Somewhere an old Indian who never quite accepted the tools of modem living watches over the church garden near the little town of Mansfield. Does that garden, in the still of the night, get tended now and then by an old man with a turtle shell hoe? And throughout our beautiful Ozarks, things happen yet today ...... things born of the passions, loves, and lives of folks from generations ago. Oh, but if these mountains and hills could speak!!

The Adventuress by Marion Chesney, 161 pages

 Beauty is a powerful magnet, and every man in the ton is drawn to the exquisite loveliness of Miss Emily Goodenough, who has rented the Clarges Street house with her rather peculiar old uncle. Only Rainbird, the butler, suspects that Miss Goodenough's origins might be less than genteel--in fact, that the beauteous Emily may be a runaway chambermaid and her "uncle" a fellow butler! But Emily has fallen desperately in love with the handsome, haughty Earl of Fleetwood, and since the bogus upstairs couple quickly wins the downstairs' servants' hearts... Rainbird and his friends are determined to make a lowly maid the catch of the Season for high society's most desirable Lord!
