Tiring of his photographic portraitist profession as of his many other brief careers, an enterprising and ever-restless Edwardian Englishman, Wiggly Barstool, travels to Ireland accompanied by his self-effacing cousin Sebastian. The two there seek "The Miracle of Tipperary", a cow fabled to bear the perfect likeness of a shamrock on its flank. Their quest brings them in contact with Fiona, an ethereal animal-rights enthusiast, and Lucy, a spirited American zoologist. The four team up to advance the principals of " strict vegetarianism " (veganism) and animal liberation, cinematically employing the unusual cow as a poster child, and putting themselves at odds with Sir Patrick O'Dell, a brilliant rascal determined to thwart them.Adventure, romance, mystery, and psychological analysis await in this droll turn-of-the-century romp.

My name is Nora Black, and I’m celebrating my BFFs midlife matrimony! Gilly is engaged, and I have invited a couple of friends to help us celebrate her bachelorette vacation in wine country. We are leaving work behind for three days of good food, good friends, and good fun. Or so I thought. When the youngest of our group, Tippy Davenport, gets flirty with a local musician, his girlfriend is less than pleased. Some might even call her reaction homicidal. But when the woman turns up dead during a hiking tour, our vacation turns into an investigation. It doesn’t take a sommelier to sniff out the sour grapes surrounding this murder, including the astringent scents of old money, family intrigue, jealousy, and greed. I’ll have to employ my psychic nose to catch a killer and get the bride back home to Garden Cove in time for her wedding.

After the fire that consumed their aunt’s Washington, DC, mansion, Ari Montclair has fled with the only man who could possibly understand the danger she is in. Since her twin Paul has surrendered to his own dark urges, she’s better off starting a whole new life under the radar—even if that means her friends and boyfriend think she’s dead. Paul, on the other hand, has escaped with his aunt’s hidden treasure of vampire gold, which he has no intention of sharing with his father, who has become more unstable than ever. Yet even with freedom and wealth, he longs for more. If only Ari were at his side, his never-ending life would be perfect. He will do anything to change her, forcing a showdown that just might cost Ari much more than her soul . . .

Mel Brooks is often regarded as one of Hollywood's funniest men, thanks to such highly successful films as The Producers, Blazing Saddles, and Young Frankenstein. His films do have a tendency to turn out much like the jokes that comprise them--hit-or-miss, one minute shoot-the-moon brilliant and the next minute well short of laughs. This work provides a thorough synopsis and thematic analysis for each of his twelve films along with complete cast and production credits: The Producers (1968), The Twelve Chairs (1970), Blazing Saddles (1974), Young Frankenstein (1974), Silent Movie (1976), High Anxiety (1977), History of the World--Part 1 (1981), To Be or Not to Be (1983), Spaceballs (1987), Life Stinks (1991), Robin Hood: Men in Tights (1993), and Dracula: Dead and Loving It (1995).
