Annie Proulx’s first novel, which received huge acclaim and launched an outstanding literary career.‘Postcards’ is the story of Loyal Blood, a man who spends a lifetime on the run from a crime so terrible that it renders him forever incapable of touching a woman. The odyssey begins on a freezing Vermont hillside in 1944 and propels Blood across the American West for forty years. Denied love and unable to settle, he lives a hundred different lives: mining gold, growing beans, hunting fossils, trapping, prospecting for uranium and ranching. His only contact with his past is through a series of postcards he sends home – not realising that in his absence disaster has befallen his family, and their deep-rooted connection with the land has been severed with devastating consequences…

They are drawn by his deception, then disappear into the darkness forever… Endover, New Hampshire, looks innocent. But below its surface an ancient powerful thirst lurks. And when two girls go missing, only one person can find them: private investigator Maxine Stuart. No other living mortal knows as much about the undead as Maxie.But the dark force controlling Endover will use that knowledge to strengthen his hold on the town – and on her. Not even Lou Malone, the man Maxie most desires, can convince her to abandon her crusade against a madman’s yearning for power…and resurrected love.
