"The Cracked Pot" от Хизер Такер - продолжение романа "Broken pots" израильского писателя Ари Эпплтона. В этой книге вы встретите главных героев, прошедших через многие испытания и готовящихся к битве за будущее их народа.
Ари Эпплтон знакомит читателей с миром жестокой борьбы и трагедии, сочетающим в себе подлинную жизнь Израиля с необычным будущим. Зрелищное действие и, несомненно, увлекательный сюжет
Janet Falcon's husband is dead, her job ruined, and her life a catastrophe to live in the seaside town of Second Chance,Florida. Surviving on unemployment benefits, she must find a way to make it on her own. Locked out of the house Janet rents by her deceased husband, Janet decides to put the ornate summer rental she has lived in during the last 11 years up for sale. When the buyer is none other than Michael Appleton, owner of the Domes Resort Casino and Apartments in Treston, Connecticut – Janet's nightmare begins again in the landlocked resort city. For Janet doesn't have a clue that when sale of her rental home was concluded, there was a built-in provision that Appleton gets the deed to property twenty-one, or Cypress Court, including any furnishings. Now Janet finds herself a virtual prisoner at Cypress Court in a housing development literally thirty minutes from Treston. Her situation becomes worse when Appleton – who claims her home is part of a construction site to be redeveloped as a new resort facility – informs her that she can live there rent-free as long as she works for less than minimum wage babysitting the two informal "children" Appleton has started spending his weekends with in conjunction with running Treston's casino: Emma Appleton and Simon Appleton II.
