Summary: Two orphan brothers and sisters are growing up in an extremely harsh environment in Liverpool. In the struggle for life the sister faces death and the brother yet to face harsher environment but with memories from his dead sister he stands strong.

Comments: There is a 1920 silent movie based on the story. This is one of the best books I read. I read the translated version in Bangla by the local publisher Seba Prokashoni. If you ever wanted to make book gift to someone, please keep this book in the first place.

Summary: A psychiatrist is constantly being attempted to murder but instead his subordinates are being murdered instead of him making him a primary suspect by the police. Can he prove himself through?

Comments: There is a 1983 film based on the novel and may be with the same title. I read the translated version in Bangla by the local publisher Projapoti Prokashon. Extremely thrilling.
