Download or read book The Silent Witness written by Robin Wickens and published by Rob's Books. This book was released on 2024-07-03 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The moon hung high in the cloudless night sky, casting a pale, eerie glow over the small coastal town. The waves crashed rhythmically against the rocky shore, their sound a ghostly whisper in the quiet darkness. A lone figure moved through the shadows, blending seamlessly with the night. In the heart of the town, an old, abandoned warehouse stood silent and foreboding. Its broken windows and crumbling façade hinted at a long-forgotten past, now shrouded in mystery and neglect. Inside, the air was thick with the scent of damp wood and decay. The figure moved with practiced precision, every step calculated and deliberate. Clad in black from head to toe, the killer wore gloves to avoid leaving any trace. In their hand, a slender, gleaming knife caught the faint moonlight that streamed through the broken windows. On the cold, concrete floor lay the latest victim—a young woman in her early twenties, her lifeless eyes staring blankly at the ceiling. The killer had worked quickly, efficiently. The cut was clean, a single, precise stroke to the throat that ensured silence and a swift death. There was no sign of struggle, no indication of a fight. The victim had been taken by surprise; her fate sealed in a matter of seconds. The killer knelt beside the body, meticulously arranging the woman’s hands over her chest, a macabre semblance of peace. From a small pouch, they extracted a single white lily and placed it delicately on the victim’s chest. The flower’s stark whiteness contrasted sharply with the dark pool of blood spreading beneath her. The killer stood, surveying their work with a cold, detached satisfaction. There were no fingerprints, no footprints, nothing that could link them to the crime. They had perfected their methods over the years, leaving behind only a haunting signature—a silent witness to their presence. As the killer melted back into the shadows, the sound of distant sirens began to pierce the night. The police would arrive soon, but by then, the killer would be long gone, a phantom slipping away into the darkness. Outside, the night continued its relentless march toward dawn. The town slept on, unaware that another life had been claimed, another soul lost to the enigmatic predator who moved unseen among them. The moonlight dimmed as clouds began to gather, casting the town into deeper shadow. The scene was set, the stage prepared for the arrival of Dr. Sarah Winters, who would soon find herself drawn into a deadly game of cat and mouse with a killer who was always one step ahead. And so, the dance of death continued, silent and unseen, beneath the indifferent gaze of the night.

Download or read book International Disaster Health Care written by Girish Bobby Kapur and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-01-06 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title includes a number of Open Access chapters. International Disaster Health Care: Preparedness, Response, Resource Management, and Education provides a complete image of the needs, concerns, and insights that relate to disaster preparedness from an international health-care perspective. The United Nations has recognized the devastating consequences of "unpredictable, unpreventable and impersonal" disasters—at least US $2 trillion in economic damage and more than 1.3 million lives lost from natural disasters in the last two decades alone. In many disasters (both natural and man-made) hundreds—and in major earthquakes, thousands—of lives are lost in the first days following the event because of the lack of medical/surgical facilities to treat those with potentially survivable injuries. Disasters disrupt and destroy not only medical facilities in the disaster zone but also infrastructure (roads, airports, electricity) and potentially local healthcare personnel as well. To minimize morbidity and mortality from disasters, medical treatment must begin immediately, within minutes ideally, but certainly within 24 hours (not the days to weeks currently seen in medical response to disasters). Edited by emergency health professionals, this valuable compendium is broken into five sections, which describe the following topics: disaster-related health care disaster preparedness and resilience effective medical responses to disasters managing resources during disasters how medical staff can be better educated to handle disasters This volume brings together a wealth of information that will be valuable to disaster management professionals and others responsible for providing emergency services.
