I'm doing a project for school. There are three guidlines:
1. It can NOT be a movie.
2. It must be 250 pages or more.
3. It can NOT be a young adult book.
Okay, so there were four guidlines (the fourth being it has to be somthing I have never read before), but I'm not listing all the books I've ever read.
Don't recomend a vampire novel. Don't recomend somthing so obscure I have to order it online. Feel free to recomend somthing from the 1800s or 1900s. I love classics. (No Orwell, though) Please help me~!

Sahara-Clive Cussler Book Details: Dark Pitt returns in a gripping adventure story featuring a lost Confederate warship, a mysteriously vanished British aviatrix and a world environmental nightmare.
The Spice Box- Lou Jane Temple Book Details: A delicious new mystery series that takes readers on a cook's tour of kitchens through history.
A fresh new series begins-- one which will follow a spice box--and the cooks who use it--through different historical periods, each with a mystery to solve and a handful of precious recipes.
Bridget Heaney escaped from Ireland's Great Famine to New York City, where she spent her childhood as a pickpocket, supporting herself and her younger sister. But ever since she made her first pot of soup at the orphanage, she knew she wanted to be a cook. Now, in the home of wealthy and powerful department store owner Isaac Gold, her dream is about to come true.
But on Bridget's first day of work, amidst gleaming copper pots and mighty woodstoves, she finds a body hidden inside the dough box. It is Gold's youngest son, whose whereabouts have been a mystery for several days. Bridget's courage and street sense take her from cook to crime-solver as she helps the heartbroken Gold family unravel the story of their son's fate. Justice will be served-along with a home-cooked meal.

Unforgettable for character and incident, it is a novel of love and hope, courage and endurance, born of the dignity of man.
The Complaint of the Dove- Hannah March Book Details: Lucy Dove is the toast of London's Covent Garden stage. Matthew Hemsley is not the first to be smitten by her.

Windtop has become a trap, but Hollis Sands will not leave, until she discovers the truth, no matter how close to death that takes her....
The Last Promise- Richard Paul Evans Book Details: They meet by chance in Tuscany. Eliana is an American painter trapped in a loveless marriage. Ross is a man seeking renewal after a terrible tragedy. Their hearts bring them together. Will their lives keep them apart?
