Book excerpt: A body showing signs of torture. A dark secret lurking in the city... The body of a young homeless boy washes up on the banks of the Lea River, his hands bound, fingernails torn off. It looks like a drug-debt collection gone wrong, but DS Jamie Johansson sees something more. Jamie and her partner Roper need to dig deep into London's grim underworld, navigating the brutal maze of homelessness and crime running through the streets. At every turn a new suspect crawls out of the woodwork and a witness disappears. And when the victim's girlfriend turns up strung out and strangled half to death, things only get darker. Whoever did this is doing everything they can to cover their tracks. Even if that means killing again. Jamie is no rookie, but she's never headed up a murder investigation either. Is she in over her head? Or is she the only detective that has what it takes to catch this killer before they strike again? Bare Skin is a tightly wound crime novel for the new age. Hard-boiled detectives are a thing of the past. It's time for a new generation of hero. And with it, comes a new breed of criminal...

Is Dani the one that just might be able to settle Calland down, if he can get past her walls? Or will her secrets tear them apart? *Recommended for readers 18+ due to HOT sexual encounters, adult situations, and language. **This is the final book in the Skin Deep Series.

Download or read book Under the Skin written by Linda Villarosa and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2022-06-14 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PULITZER PRIZE FINALIST • "A stunning exposé of why Black people in our society 'live sicker and die quicker'—an eye-opening game changer."—Oprah Daily From an award-winning writer at the New York Times Magazine and a contributor to the 1619 Project comes a landmark book that tells the full story of racial health disparities in America, revealing the toll racism takes on individuals and the health of our nation. In 2018, Linda Villarosa's New York Times Magazine article on maternal and infant mortality among black mothers and babies in America caused an awakening. Hundreds of studies had previously established a link between racial discrimination and the health of Black Americans, with little progress toward solutions. But Villarosa's article exposing that a Black woman with a college education is as likely to die or nearly die in childbirth as a white woman with an eighth grade education made racial disparities in health care impossible to ignore. Now, in Under the Skin, Linda Villarosa lays bare the forces in the American health-care system and in American society that cause Black people to “live sicker and die quicker” compared to their white counterparts. Today's medical texts and instruments still carry fallacious slavery-era assumptions that Black bodies are fundamentally different from white bodies. Study after study of medical settings show worse treatment and outcomes for Black patients. Black people live in dirtier, more polluted communities due to environmental racism and neglect from all levels of government. And, most powerfully, Villarosa describes the new understanding that coping with the daily scourge of racism ages Black people prematurely. Anchored by unforgettable human stories and offering incontrovertible proof, Under the Skin is dramatic, tragic, and necessary reading.

Book excerpt: "Our intimate connection with the world, skin protects us while advertising our health, our identity, and our individuality. This synthetic overview, written with a poetic touch and taking many intriguing side excursions, is a guidebook to the pliable covering that makes us who we are. This book celebrates the evolution of three unique attributes of human skin: its naked sweatiness, its distinctive sepia rainbow of colors, and its remarkable range of decorations. Author Jablonski begins with a look at skin's structure and functions and then tours its three-hundred-million-year evolution, delving into such topics as the importance of touch and how the skin reflects and affects emotions. She examines the modern human obsession with age-related changes in skin, especially wrinkles, then turns to skin as a canvas for self-expression, exploring our use of cosmetics, body paint, tattooing, and scarification"--Publisher's description.
