Selling her corn fritters at a carnival, Deputy Donut Café owner Emily Westhill faces off against a murderer who doesn't play fair... Emily and her assistant, Nina, are looking forward to manning the Deputy Donut tent at the Faker's Dozen Carnival in Fallingbrook, Wisconsin--a festival held on Friday the thirteenth to celebrate good and bad luck. But Emily has barely dropped the corn fritters in oil when bad luck boils up. First, their bucket of confectioner's sugar disappears--and then while a mime creates a distraction, a magician robs their cash register. After the carnival, their misfortune continues. Emily discovers that someone has broken into artist Nina's loft and vandalized a large painting in progress with the bucket of stolen sugar, which is now on the head of the mime, who seems to have been suffocated. Emily would bet Nina was the intended victim, but the cops think Nina silenced the mime. Now Emily must catch the killer white-handed--before someone else kicks the bucket...

Book excerpt: Nathan Thomas Cole, a disillusioned product of the Gen-X tribe, seemingly has it all, but he still lacks true happiness. He doesnt know it yet, but Nathan is about to have his greatest wish finally fulfilled. Nathan awakens one morning to discover he has become the master of his own universe. He soon realizes he is completely alone on a deserted tropical island, unsure of how he arrived, how long he has been there or if he is even really there at all. Quickly, his nightmarish transcendence into mental and physical survival begins, every minute bringing a new and unusual experience. He encounters moments of tranquility and happiness as well as moments of uncertainty and terror. Unexplained events and scattered scenes from Nathans life begin to play out in random sequence, as characters from his past bring him face-to-face with the shocking truth he has been desperately chasing. As the island begins to come alive, Nathan must decide if his subconscious mind has come out to play, or if the mysterious island is truly providing him with an exclusive key back to his own lost past, unlocking the present, and propelling him perilously forward into a dark and questionable future.

Download or read book Beyond Nostalgia written by Ruth E. Ray and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For three years, Ruth E. Ray visited and participated in eight writing groups at six senior centers in inner-city and suburban Detroit, looking for ways in which the elderly fashion their memories through personal narrative. Her innovative book involves the reader in the construction of life stories as a richly rewarding and highly social process that often reveals the types of relationships that dominate the lives of group members, the majority of whom are women. Because Ray wrote and responded herself and shares her anxiety and triumph in presenting her writing to women old enough to be her mother, some of a different race and class, Beyond Nostalgia is an excellent primer for professionals working with diverse groups in a variety of settings. It is also an important contribution to the emerging field of feminist gerontology. Ray's book demonstrates its own thesis that the presentation and negotiation of life stories in writing groups initiates change and personal growth among older people. Drawing on personal observations, the give-and-take of meeting conversations, lengthy interviews, and the life stories themselves, Ray tells a story of adult development through personal narrative. She recreates the group process through which age peers begin to articulate what life means, both individually and collectively. The writing groups of older adults that Ray studied challenged their members to consider not just cultural influences, but generational effects on the evolving content and structure of their life stories. Age, Ray argues, has been largely ignored by feminists and she makes a strong case for the need to learn how women make meaning of their lives across the life span. As an important document and analysis of that process, Beyond Nostalgia should appeal to academics and practitioners in women's studies, composition studies, gerontology, developmental psyschology, sociology, social work, and linguistics, and to anyone who works with older people.
