John Montague, Anwalt der Familie, erzählt der neuen Hausherrin von der schaurigen Geschichte des Hauses: Vor Jahren war es Schauplatz eines okkulten Experiments, das mehrere Menschenleben forderte. Montague überlässt Constance die Tagebücher der jungen Eleanor, die nach dem Experiment spurlos verschwand. Eleanor hatte eine schreckliche Begabung: In düsteren Visionen sah sie, wer dem Tod geweiht war. Constance ahnt, dass ihr eigenes Schicksal mit dem Eleanors zusammenhängt. Allen Warnungen zum Trotz geht sie mit einer Gruppe von Spiritisten nach Wraxford, um das verhängnisvolle Experiment von damals zu vollenden …

Practical NMR Spectroscopy Laboratory Guide is designed to provide non-expert NMR users, typically graduate students in chemistry, an introduction to various facets of practical solution-state NMR spectroscopy. Each chapter offers a series of hands-on exercises, introducing various NMR concepts and experiments and guiding the reader in running these experiments using an NMR spectrometer. The book is written for use with a Bruker NMR spectrometer running TopSpin software versions 1 or 2. This practical resource functions both as a text for instructors of a practical NMR course and also as a reference for spectrometer administrators or NMR facility directors when doing user training. This guide serves as serve as excellent, practical resource on its own or as a companion book to Timothy Claridge's High-Resolution NMR Techniques in Organic Chemistry, 2nd Edition (Elsevier, 2009). Written by experts in solution-state NMR spectroscopy Provides step-by-step instructions for more than 50 activities using a Bruker NMR spectrometer Includes detailed appendices and sample questions for lab reports
