Book excerpt: Be Sure To Bury Your Dead. "It was now obvious to him that Peter Reuben was an assumed identity, an alias, of his client. It was the only fact that made any sense considering that all of the information given to Jarco was that which belonged to a man who died two years prior, right around the time the deceased took his new position. No wonder none of his references hadn't seen him for some time. Now he not only didn't have a body, he also had no name." A "routine" insurance investigation turns into murder, with no body, no suspect, no clues. Jason Hallor, ex-DC cop and now Private Investigator, teams up with James Jones, a Detroit cop, on a case that takes them from Detroit to Vegas to Atlantic City and DC. Along the way they almost get eaten by dogs, get attacked by strangers and almost lose their jobs. They get confused and wet and in trouble, but manage to pull it off in the end. At least, they seem to.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The protagonist, Alvarez, of Where Do They Bury the Dead, is a young man who became a national hero and the center of a growing massive movement against the systematic and brutal repression of the Haitian people. As a young man from the wealthier classes, he was to follow the trajectory of achieving professional status as a doctor like his parents and his two brothers. Fate, injustice, and a personal decision changed all that. The government had begun a renewed aggressive silent campaign against Haitians of all classes and in particular had targeted Alvarez’s class, many of them young people, who were speaking up against the repression. Some of these protesters were friends of Alvarez and he became alarmed when they were disappearing without a trace. One day hearing yet again that a friend had disappeared; he spontaneously and with the naivety of youth and class, decided to start a mission to find the bodies of his friends. He simply just wanted the families to be given the bodies in order to provide a proper funeral and burial for them. From that decision, tragedy struck, awakening his father and the rest of his family that took up Alvarez’s mission and a movement was born of consciousness and action among Haitians. The story of Alvarez is the story of that unity and the beautiful consequences of organizing power against a government that had for too long muted the voices of reason and justice.

Download or read book Birth Marriage and Death Ritual Religion and the Life Cycle in Tudor and Stuart England written by David Cressy and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 1997-05-29 with total page 662 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From childbirth and baptism through to courtship, weddings, and funerals, every stage in the life-cycle of Tudor and Stuart England was accompanied by ritual. Even under the protestantism of the reformed Church, the spiritual and social dramas of birth, marriage, and death were graced with elaborate ceremony. Powerful and controversial protocols were in operation, shaped and altered by the influences of the Reformation, the Revolution, and the Restoration. Each of the major rituals was potentially an arena for argument, ambiguity, and dissent. Ideally, as classic rites of passage, these ceremonies worked to bring people together. But they also set up traps into which people could stumble, and tests which not everybody could pass. In practice, ritual performance revealed frictions and fractures that everyday local discourse attempted to hide or to heal. Using fascinating first-hand evidence, David Cressy shows how the making and remaking of ritual formed part of a continuing debate, sometimes strained and occasionally acrimonious, which exposed the raw nerves of society in the midst of great historical events. In doing so, he vividly brings to life the common experiences of living and dying in Tudor and Stuart England.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canada's premier author of historical mystery fiction returns with a brand new and highly anticipated Murdoch Mystery, with an older and wiser Detective Murdoch. It is November 1917. The Great War is grinding on, chewing up young men by the thousands. Initially, in the loyal Dominion of Canada, people are mostly eager to support the Motherland and fight for the Empire. Men perceived as slackers or cowards are shunned. But the carnage is horrendous and with enforced conscription, the enthusiasm for war is dimming. William Murdoch is a widower, a senior detective who, thanks to the new temperance laws, spends his time tracking down bootleggers and tipplers; most unsatisfying. His wife, Amy, died giving birth to their second child, a girl who lived only a few hours more. Murdoch, racked by grief, withdrew from four-year-old, Jack. This he regrets and would dearly love to make up for his negligence. As we enter the story, Jack, now twenty-one, has returned from France after being wounded and gassed at the Battle of Passchendaele. It is soon apparent that he is deeply troubled but he's not confiding in his father. He does, however, seem to be bound by shared secrets to another wounded former soldier, Percy McKinnon. Murdoch suddenly has much more serious crimes than rum-running on his hands. The night after Jack and McKinnon arrive home, a young man is found stabbed to death in the impoverished area of Toronto known as the Ward. Soon after, Murdoch has to deal with a tragic suicide, also a young man. Two more murders follow in quick succession. The only common denominator is that all of the men were exempted from conscription. Increasingly worried that Jack knows more than he is letting on, Murdoch must solve these crimes before more innocents lose their lives. It is a solution that will give him only sorrow.
