Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unmarked graves are found on the grounds of an old orphanage in this “riveting” British crime thriller by an Edgar Award finalist (Publishers Weekly, starred review). With profiler Tony Hill behind bars and Carol Jordan no longer with the police, he’s finding unexpected outlets for his talents in jail and she’s joined forces with a group of lawyers and forensics experts looking into suspected miscarriages of justice. But they’re doing it without each other; being in the same room at visiting hour is too painful to contemplate. Meanwhile, construction is suddenly halted on the redevelopment of an orphanage after dozens of skeletons are found buried at the site. Forensic examination reveals they date from between twenty and forty years ago, when the nuns were running their repressive regime. But then a different set of skeletons is discovered in a far corner—young men from as recent as ten years ago. When newly promoted DI Paula McIntyre discovers that one of the male skeletons is that of a killer who is supposedly alive and behind bars—and the subject of one of Carol’s miscarriage investigations—it brings Tony and Carol irresistibly into each other’s orbit once again in this masterfully plotted novel by “the queen of psychological thrillers” (Irish Independent).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of interviews—some vintage, some recent, and some brand-new—Conversations with the Dead is the first (and only) book in which the Grateful Dead speak in their own words about their music and their lives. David Gans, a self-professed Deadhead and host of "The Grateful Dead Hour," asked Jerry Garcia, Bob Weir, and the rest of the band the questions their fans would have asked if given the chance. And Gans reaches far beyond the musicians, talking with such often-overlooked key players as the recording engineer, sound man, and road crew—those who have had the coveted opportunity to witness the Dead's decades of music-making. This updated and expanded edition includes a rare, never-before-published interview with Seastones composer Ned Lagin and a new introduction by the author. With a readable combination of intensity, inquisitiveness, and candor, Gans has created an unprecedented portrait of a band who, after more than thirty years of music-making, has earned a unique place in American culture.

Download or read book Harmful Interaction between the Living and the Dead in Greek Tragedy written by Bridget Martin and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2020-04-18 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifth-century Greek tragedy contains some of the most fascinating and important stage-ghosts in Western literature, whether the talkative Persian king Darius, who is evoked from the Underworld in Aeschylus’ Persians, or the murdered Trojan prince Polydorus, who seeks burial for his exposed corpse in Euripides’ Hecuba. These manifest figures can tell us a vast amount about the abilities of the tragic dead, particularly in relation to the nature, extent and limitations of their interaction with the living through, for example, ghost-raising ceremonies and dreams. Beyond these manifest dead, tragedy presents a wealth of invisible dead whose anger and desire for revenge bubble up from the Underworld, and whose honour and dishonour occupy the minds and influence the actions of the living. Combining both these manifest and invisible dead, this book examines harmful interaction between the living and the dead, i.e. how the living can harm the dead, and how the dead can harm the living. This includes discussions on the extent to which the dead are aware of and can react to honourable or dishonourable treatment by the living, the social stratification of the Underworld, the consequences of corpse exposure and mutilation for both the living and the dead, and how the dead can use and collaborate with avenging agents, such as the gods, the living and the Erinyes.

Her body has been dismembered and displayed in the usual shocking macabre scene. Detective Anthony James and his partner Detective Patrick White are at the scene. Detective James knows immediately who is responsible for this gruesome death. The 'Butcher' is at again. The murders started ten years ago. It was a hot and humid August day in St. Louis when a lonely gas inspector discovered the 'Butcher's" handiwork. Three bodies were found dismembered in the basement of an abandoned home. A rookie detective at the time, Anthony James had no idea how this gruesome scene would affect the rest of his life and curse him with the ability to hear the dead speak. Detective James's uncanny ability led him through years to solve cases and bring killers to justice that many would never have suspected.

A path that will expose deceit, infidelity, and betrayal. Corruption at the highest level. Has the 'Butcher' miscalculated his evilness? Will Detective James' ability to hear the dead speak be enough to bring the 'Butcher' to justice? To finally reveal who the 'Butcher' has been all this time.
