From the New York Times, USA Today, and internationally bestselling author of the Angelology series comes a bewitching gothic novel of suspense that plunges readers into a world of dark family secrets, the mysteries of human genetics, and the burden of family inheritance.

It feels like a fairy tale when Alberta "Bert" Monte receives a letter addressed to "Countess Alberta Montebianco" at her Hudson Valley, New York, home that claims she's inherited a noble title, money, and a castle in Italy. While Bert is more than a little skeptical, the mystery of her aristocratic family's past, and the chance to escape her stressful life for a luxury holiday in Italy, is too good to pass up.

At first, her inheritance seems like a dream come true: a champagne-drenched trip on a private jet to Turin, Italy; lawyers with lists of artwork and jewels bequeathed to Bert; a helicopter ride to an ancestral castle nestled in the Italian Alps below Mont Blanc; a portrait gallery of ancestors Bert never knew existed; and a cellar of expensive vintage wine for Bert to drink.

But her ancestry has a dark side, and Bert soon learns that her family history is particularly complicated. As Bert begins to unravel the Montebianco secrets, she begins to realize her true inheritance lies not in a legacy of ancestral treasures, but in her very genes.

--Victor LaValle, author of The Changeling

Great Price, Great Hoodie!
Size: X-Large, Color: Red Full Zip
Gave these to kids for Christmas. The price was right and there are so many colors! The fit is true to size and the colors are vibrant. They are on the thin size, but we like them that way. Not to hot, not to cold. The stitching is average but the fabric used makes up for that as these hoodies are sooo soft! Sooo comfortable to wear. We will definitely be ordering more when these wear out for sure. Recommended!

Comfy and warm for everyday wear
Size: Medium, Color: Navy Full Zip
I bought this Fruit of the Loom Eversoft Fleece Hoodie for my husband and he realy likes how soft it feels on the inside. The fabric is thick enough to keep him warm during his morning walks but it is still breathable so he doesnt get too sweaty while he is moving around. It has that moisture-wicking feature which is great because it stays dry even when it is a bit humid outside. The fit is just right and the hood stays up good without being too tight around his neck. It is hard to find hoodies that dont pill up after the first wash but this one has held up great so far and still looks brand new. For the price it is a total steal and much better quality than some of the more expensive brands we have tried before. I will definitely be ordering a few more colors for him soon.
