At least Fugate has attempted to write one. Even his letters are riddled with exclamation points and he babbles on like somebody sixteen. Ally works herself sick to put her boyfriend though school.

This is the second book in the Merlin Chronicles series and I have to wait till spring of 2015 to read the 3rd. This book was riveting.. Mercy takes new pack member Zach along as she tries to figure out who is doing the haunting and how to make it stop. i thought maybe the book was written in the 60's, but much to the insult to the progress of mens fashion, someone had the nerve to publish this in 2008.

She reads both du Maurier's life in her writings, and the sensibility of a vanished class and time that haunts the fringes of our own age.While the critic's emphasis on the gloomy side of du Maurier may turn off some potential readers, she does succeed in her aim of rescuing her chosen author from the label of "romantic writer."

Auerbach also examines film versions of du Maurier's work, revealing how Hitchcock and others romanticized the dark vision of Rebecca and other fictions.
